Actual user comments for the Synth and FX plugins from emails and forums:
“
Amazing synth! Great job KarmaFX! I allready used filter and delay allot.. love the synth, super sounding !
”
“
This synth caught me by surprise like a shot of very, very good marijuana. It is fun to use and sounds nice, excellent work.
....Nice and neat work KarmaFX . I'm playing with it for hours now and will continue that way... The GUI is wonderful!!!
”
“
Just a plug for these plugs :-)
I have been using Deelay and also the filter one for about a month now, and they are excellent.
The delay is now my main goto for basic delays. It is rock solid, no cpu AT ALL is taken up, and the sound is
absolutely superb. The filter is super smooth and musical, just lovely. And now this (synth)??? so cool.
I encourage people to donate a bit of happy cabbage if they use these, because this kind of excellence deserves reward.

I really like the sound of this one. Very squishy, gooey Osc + filters (especially that Zolzer). You're 90% there man, the sound of your core modules rivals the very best of commercial vstis. Keep up the great work.
This is an ideal Goa/Psy synth if I ever heard one. Thanks!!

“
I am enjoying your modular synth very much. I haven't used the fx much yet, but the karmafx synth will be one of the few that will remain on my harddrive. thank you.
”
“
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy Karma FX. Though I am primarily a Mac user,
I often fire up my PC just to use it. This is saying a lot considering that I have an
actual 70+ module hardware modular system......
yours is one of the best donationware
synths I have ever seen. Heck, it is one of the best instruments I have seen at any price.
”
“
Thanx KarmaFX! Its refreshing to see such a well-conceived synth thats been really well crafted AND sounds so good as well - thats a great piece of work!
”
“
For the first time in years I felt motivated to fiddle about with synth settings - it is so intuitive in this synth.
”
“
Why don't more developers make such intuitive and fine soft synths with nice GUI's and nice [not too bright]
colours and even better sound ? I can't say thanks enough KarmaFX....
”
“
hey, i love this thing (=synth)...took me awhile to get around to playing with it, when i finally did i was blown away.... very nice sounds and i really dig the skin, very nice look to it. thanks a bunch!
”
“
...I've still gotta say this is THE BEST modular sample mangling VSTi I've ever gotten my mitts on.
Simply superb :-)

This first modular synth that I really like using. Usually I am lost with cables and possibilities but this is clean and nice.
Expecially I use it as an fx.

I am a musician and have a studio with many synths inlcuding Virus C and Ti, NL3,Supernova and so on. and I think your plug in KarmaFX modular is perhaps the ONLY one software synthesizer plug in which actually can really compete with hardware based
synthesizers. I have Absynth, Vanguard, Reason....and I worked with all sequencers and possible plug in, including Emagic and MOTU's synth, Arturia, Rcg audio and
many many others...now I work only with Cubase SX. The choice today is very large in sofware based instruments, but your KarmaFX
Modular is the only serious one.. I love how it sounds, and first time I heared it I thought:
'Finally is born a software synthesizer which sounds like a real instrument.....'.
Compliments....
”
“
The demo sounds all do have huge amounts of delay/verb on them, but the kicks still sound fn incredible.... and what's with that plucked string sound !?
”
“
Brilliant synth !
simply ooozing potential because of it's modular nature.
”
“
Very clean sound, but uses lots of effects. The sound has a sharp presence (in your face) that not many other synths has !
”
“
I love the sound of this synth - I think it does have analog warmth and fullness and yet it's very clean.
It has a sampler module, and now for some fm goodness.
Synth of the Year, as far as I'm concerned. Also love its design, and the price is right (yes, I donated ).

... Like all great modulars, it makes an exemplary teaching tool. I am totally enamoured with the thing myself. There simply aren't too many things out there that so succesfully combine ease of use with modular flexibility. Plus, it sounds awesome. It kicks ass.

....After auditioning a few synths/samplers, I settled on Paax2 and Crystal.
However, I found Crystal a bit complex and Paax2 somewhat limited. The story was completely different when it came to KarmaFx.
Not only was it simple to get started, but I quickly found it a powerhouse in altering my samples. In the first ten minutes, I managed to save three killer presets! Every single wav that I inputted came out the other end as something completely new and wonderfully musical.
The GUI is awesome! I can't praise you enough for such an excellent tool.
”
“
KarmaFX is wonderful. Specifically, FX Synth is easy-to-use and the sound is beautiful!! :)
”
“
...KarmaFX system you got going here, deserves a 10 out of 10, in my book. not just because of it's simplicty of the modular concept, sound quality, or looks, but because it opens the door of modular synthesis to alot of artists, who would not easily have the chance, or cannot afford to create electronic music in such a powerful, and individual way.
...Thanks for a brilliant piece of programming, but more importantly, thanks for helping to keep the art of modular music alive!
”
“
I tried hard to be unimpressed by the demo mp3's... hopeless, yet another synth I have to D/L.
”
“
I had to donate, cause your synth simply kicks ass. I own a lot of vst synths, but I really like your sound, cause it's very clear, I've never seen something like that before.
You must release whole version, I would pay for it :) I'm gonna use your synth in my tracks for sure, I make psy and chill, so perfect synth for that...

...those waveform displays are SO COOL!!! I showed it to the girls in the band and they both said WOW! :-)
They like the new Ableton Logo too but otherwise software doesn't make them go wow :-) ....Respect! You have good Karma.

Just wanted to say how pleased I am with KarmaFX Synth Modular. I used the beta
versions in the last stages but I've recently purchased it.
It's just incredible. It's so versatile and easy to use and the sound is amazing.
Congratulations on a great development and one that is very reasonably priced.

After going through various synths without being able to do the sound that I want
for my Fullon-bassline I finally found the sound that I was looking for.
The answer is: KarmaFX Modular Synth.
I've struggled with multiple synths and those ADSRs but KarmaFX's envelope is just
so much better than normal ADSR. There's prolly many other synths with same kind of
envelope but I just fell in love with KarmaFX's one.
”
“
I really, really love KarmaFX. It's an amazing synth and it's fast
becoming my synth of choice. I will be definitely using it when
recording my band's next record.
”
“
Just wanted to drop you a line to say how incredible your synth is. I stumbled
accross it and am so! glad I did. The sound quality is very impressive and
interface easy to get what you need quickly. The sounds you can create surpass any
other soft synth I have used. Superb!”

Ok, I've been using your synth for a couple months now and I have to say
it's amazing. Currently I own Absynth, Predator, and z3ta+... and they are all going to
the wayside because of your synth. I have no interest in using them anymore
and I have no interest in buying anymore VSTs. Well done. I can't wait to start posting psytrance tracks made with your synth.
”
“
I find your synth really good to make scifi sounds, it really rocks!...
I had a quick look at the manual and it seems really professional. You deserve a BRAVO because I have never found a synth so intuitive to use, It really makes your imagination work.
”
“
...yeah karmafx are quality... the karmafx synth is just awesome modular awesomeness. some gorgeous sounds!

Karma FX Synth Modular has finally arrived - and is really worth a look - for an excellent VST with wide range of modules and excellent documentation - all at a relatively painless price.
I've been using it for quite a time and been amazed at its development - but even more by the final result.
”

I've just spent half an hour with the (karmafx synth) manual - it's seriously well put together and a reminder of just how much functionality is available.
Great of newbies too - the manual walks you through everything, and being modular means you can start of simple and work you way up.
”
“
KarmaFX Synth effin rules. Sounds are marvelous. I am so glad to have it.

As far as what I think, the (karmafx synth) sound is unique, crisp and clear, but filthy when you want it to be. You have sooooo many options to turn this synth into what you want. One of the most important things is that it fits well in a mix, making more usable than ever.
Cheers to karmaFX ”
“
I just played with the demo.. man does it sound good! Actually I fiddled with reason4's thor just after... and Karma(FX) sounded better at least to my ears!!!
”
“
Anyone looking to learn synthesis in 2008 could do far worse than basing their learning on KarmaFX. The scope on each module helps see how a sound develops during the different stages and the range and quality of modules is really impressive for the price
”
“
Playing this thing (KarmaFX Synth) is like drizzling one's creative centers with warm buttah...It's a remarkable instrument...
”
“
...and accompanied by one of the best available introductions to synthesis. The manual definitely contributes to the overall value for money well spent.
”
“
I've been using KarmaFX Synth Modular as an effects unit and the more I use it the more I realize how awesome it is as an all-round effects unit. Because of its modular nature you can rout incoming sound into multiple modules and rout wires in interesting ways, and also has midi input.
Does it get any better?
”
“
It is an unbelievable synth... a creativity MONSTER. It's the most amazing synth. I LOVE it. Great work
”
“
I have only had the demo now for a few hours, but that was enough to blow my
mind.... I love the interface, I think it's awesome that each module has a visual
interface which makes the effect so much more tangible, meaning you can understand
what it's doing to your sound, making adjustments so much easier. I love the sound
and it suites my style perfectly, I also love the presets, plenty to go around and
all sound excellent. The package is great, you have done an excellent job...
