Hi I’m considering buying Dreamtonics Syntheseizer V. Can anybody tell me how well the pro version is intergrated with Cubase. Do you record and edit just like another vst instrument like a piano or is it in its own system like fx Melodyne?

It is more akin to Melodyne. ARA2 allows DS-V to sync and chase playback to Cubase but editing is done within DS-V. The note editor is similar to Cubase key editor except you can enter lyrics inside each note. I think you can import MIDI files but I have not used that method. You can record live as well but again, I don’t use it that way. You can control a myriad of vocal parameters and like most synths the more time spent tweaking, the better it gets.
ok, thanks, think its too difficult workflow for my liking. I already got Em-voice and that is the same. Thought this was more intergrated, but thanks:)
Integration is quite good. Ara works reasonably well. Event editor is very familiar to Cubase users. Its all worth it for the Solaria voice!
Yes, +1 for Solaria. Do you have a recommendation for a male voice ?
I use Ninezero occasionally but that’s about it. Kevin is too bland except for bg vocals, and Asterian doesnt lend himself to my kind of writing. Im really looking forward to a kick ass male rocker that really works
I have Saros, who is a pretty good and versatile male voice. I like the sound of Hayden also. New voices are appearing all the time, so I’m very happy with Synth V.
Thanks guys,
I will have a closer look at these.
ok, but I’ve seen in a tutorial that you fx have to set the tempo to match cubase and that doesn’t seem integrated, but I can tell the voices sound great:)
Today, details of version 2 of Synth V (still under development) were shown for the first time. A lot is happening, and the performance has been significantly improved.
But above all, the control options for the voices have been significantly expanded.

Anyone tried the new version yet ?
There is an upgrade discount until Apr 20. Not sure about tariffs.
I was planning to get it before then so I have something new to play with after the economic collapse 
.
There are both very satisfied and disappointed users.
For detailed reviews, it’s worth checking out the Dreamtonics forum.
Here’s a thread that lists a whole series of shortcomings.
My personal impression is rather positive, although I do miss some features that were still available in V1, especially the manual mode.
Thanks P.A.T.
I decided to try it and upgraded late last night. Honestly, it seems like a rushed release. Running it standalone, I get periodic system freezes and need to reboot. They released a new update earlier today and I am about to install it.
