Combining powerful digital oscillators with an analogue-style semi-modular architecture, Bazille, the long awaited new synth from u-he (the makers of Diva and ACE) is a sound designer's dream come true. Hopes for Bazille couldn't be higher: it's been in development for the last half-decade and comes from the developer of such classic soft synths as Zebra 2, ACE and DIVA.
Pros:
- Hugely powerful oscillators.
- Brilliantly designed architecture.
- Packed with features.
- Sonically stunning.
- Very reasonably priced.
Cons:
- Mapping Generator could do with more presets and save capability.
- Can be fairly CPU-taxing, even with HQ mode disabled.
Verdict:
- The next best thing to owning your own real-world modular system, Bazille is an incredible virtual synth that's an absolute joy to use.
Rating:
- 5/5 Stars
