Hi!

I'm sending out the SidStation newsletter also to this mailinglist, in
case some of you are subscribed only to this Onelist discussion
mailinglist, and not our information newsletter...

SidStation praised!

We are very proud of the positive press reception of the SidStation. It
has been featured in music technology magazines spanning from Swedish
"Musiker Magazinet" to "Sound on Sound" - one of the best regarded
musicians publications in the world.

Quotes:

"How Does it Sound? Refreshingly different! The sounds of the SidStation
sport an incredible presence and power, without overloading the
arrangement as a whole. Without a doubt its main strengths lie in the
leads and phat timbres, with the legato lead-sounds being especially
convincing. Not forgetting the powerful, aggressive bass-sounds and
razor-sharp cutting sound effects, which also make the SidStation a very
special instrument."

Jan Haas, Keys (Germany)

"The modulation routings are surprisingly powerful, and the filter has a
sound all its own. - Overdriving it can result in some pleasantly gnarly
distorted sounds. - ...it is a cool little synth that makes unique and
effective sounds."

Mark Vail, Keyboard Magazine (USA)

"To sum up: I'm completely overwhelmed. This is the second time in my life
I've been this excited over a silvery box with knobs on. I\ufffdm convinced
that many, like me, will have huge chunks of fun with the SidStation."

Martin Nilsson, Musiker Magazinet (Sweden)

..."a striking example of retro-futurist styling it is - looking for all
the world like a remnant of Flash Gordon's spaceship. - The SidStation's
sound offers oomph and bite, and provides an excellent sonic complement to
clean-sounding modern instruments. And desp ite its grungy, lo-fi nature
it has a surprisingly versatile sonic character, from rich, fat and
in-yer-face to subtle and delicate, from wild and uncontrolled to calm and
gentle."

Simon G. Trask, Sound On Sound (UK)

It is great fun to see that the SidStation is now critically acclaimed as
well as having won the hearts of its many owners.
