Critic Reviews

Softube Modular

soundonsound.com

Softube's Modular offers a compelling virtual Eurorack experience, capturing the essence of hardware synthesis with an impressive array of modules and excellent DAW integration. The ability to save and recall patches, alongside access to high-quality third-party modules, enhances its appeal. However, users may find the fixed window size frustrating, limiting usability on smaller screens. Additionally, the lack of MIDI learn functionality for hardware controllers is a notable oversight. Despite these drawbacks, Modular stands out as a versatile tool for both newbies and seasoned synth enthusiasts eager to explore the modular world without the hefty price tag.
