Waves Element on sale today - 10/20/17

Waves is selling their Element 2 virtual synth today for $29. My guess is that it'll be back to the normal price of $119 tomorrow. Here's the Keyboard review of version one:

And here are some videos about version two:

I don't (yet) own this synth, but I'm guessing it's at least worth today's asking price. If anyone here owns Element, please let us know what you think of it below.

 

Best,

There's a demo, so folks can check it out.

 

I got it during the 25th anniversary sale a couple of weeks ago at that price.

 

Limited mod matrix and effects, but sounds quite huge.

 

Definitely more CPU intensive than other VAs I'm using but brings its own thing.

It will mark my entry into the VA synth world, but seems as good a starting point as any.

 

Yes, it's not overloaded with options and has a good basic sound.

 

BTW, you can get impressive results from freebies like TAL Noisemaker: https://tal-software.com/products/tal-noisemaker and Synth1 (Nord Lead clone): http://www.geocities.jp/daichi1969/softsynth/

 

And if you're using a Mac, the Mainstage 3 synths are excellent for the low price they're asking (although I'd recommend a more recent Mac, as some of the newer ones hammer your CPU).
