Streichfett combines the best of the now extinct species of String Synthesizers of the 70s and early 80s. Its dual sound engine features a fully polyphonic strings section and a monophonic solo section, which is essential for recreating how adult movies sounded thirty years ago. The Ensemble Effect handles lubrication of the String Section, while the Effects section adds adjustable Phaser or Reverb. Alternatively, the Effect section can be used to animate the strings registration, allowing spectacular sound morphs.
The Solo Section offset presets named Bass, E-Piano or Clavi, and just like in your typical string machine, the sound has little to do with that name. Instead, these are shimmering and slightly percussive sounds that blend well with the string section.
Although the User Interface is simple and easy to comprehend, it controls a rather complex sound engine which is capable to delivers rich and creamy pads unlike any other instrument.
Twelve patches can be stored and selected in the Memory section, USB and MIDI are of course on board.

Been using the WS for a couple of years, this is my second one (the first I regretfully sold), and I use it primarily for ambient soundscaping as a background fill. Because of the rather "high pass style of output" I take it through some ext modules to warm up the fat a bit, so to speak. It is a very easy to operate no nonsense old style box. Of course no comparison should be made with stuff like Integra or Iridium at up to ten times the price tag, but heck, for this price you'll get lotsa retro fun. For me it 5 stars, even after years.

Deze string synthesizer blinkt uit in al haar eenvoud. In een handomdraai creëer je geweldig klinkende pads en leads. De beknopte handleiding die bij dit toestel wordt meegeleverd, is afdoende. Heerlijk geluid, ik wil niet meer zonder.
