There are some minor problems or bug (but nothing that prevent from using it) i discovered while making presets for this :
– glide parameter is not saved per preset.
– when using the AR on VCA, the PWM modulation stop when releasing the key (it doesn’t happen with ADSR)
– LFO tempo sync on/off state is not saved per preset.
– and other bugs
but it’s the best freeware VST synth if you want an emulation of the Arp Odyssey.
