Any opinions on this synth? I can't find much info online.

i think it's spelled "radias".

Ah, thats why I couldn't find any info. I found the other thread here and guys say that it sounds rather clean and digital. Oh well...

Sent mine back to the dealer after a week. Very clean and VERY digital sound to it, almost to precise. Was ok for leads and arps, but guff for strings/pads or any big sounds.

Nice little box tho, some good features, nice step seqs, good arp, great onboard effects and vocoder was hella fun. VSTi front end not bad either. If you are after something that sounds like pure digital then this will be the kiddy.

Great functionality when it comes to virtual patching, kind of like a supersized MS2000, and i dig the waveforms.... but yes, very digital, waaaayyy sparkly on the highs (which can be good) but boxey and lousy as hell on the low end. if you care anything about your LF, dont touch it.

Sounds like the opposite of what I am looking for!

Had it for one month. Sold it. Very digital - not in a bad way, just in a "well, i can get that sound with numerous softsynths already" way. Control and features are very good.

Sold it and put the money towards a Radikal Spectralis. Absolutely fantastic machine. I used to own a Alesis Andromeda and I have a V-Synth, and the Spectralis is up there with both those machines in terms of inspiration and instrument playability.
