Indeed.
I have spent some time with the snow now. It's a great synth for that kind of worbly lead sounds, the FM, ring mods, LFOs are great.
However, the filters... I don't like them. Or rather I don't like the envelopes. They sound plasticky to me due to the exessive punch they have. I usually roll attack point down to 2 to get rid of that clicky, "compressed sounding" attack (maybe someone knows what I mean - or perhaps I am crazy?). I usually roll of the punch just a bit as well, I can't stand that "compression sound" for a lack of a better word.
The trick that Timo posted here works great though, I guess I just prefer the more linear shape of the envelope. The only problem I have with the trick is that it slows down the filter A LOT, which would not be a problem, except for the fact that the scale runs out. So even on fastest setting there is still too long decay to get my favored pluck sound. Any ideas to make the attack faster?
That said I dig the LP18 analog filter... Yuuum.

More synths should have these.
