“DM-307 is yet another example of Heavyocity standing out from the crowd. Their stuff is always bold, and let me tell you this thing is BOLD. Some of the sounds will take your head off right out of the box. And like all of their other synths, I love the interface. The grid is awesome, so fun to use and it just works with my writing. Heavyocity take great care in making interfaces that don’t bog you down when you’re trying to create, but rather enhance your workflow. I love these guys!! The sounds and flexibility are amazing!”
