    I don’t like using a gate at all but I guess this is when I have to learn how to work with it.

    I don think that there is any sound that can't be achieved by your suite...from Jazz to Djent and everything in between...i don't know how you do it...utterly flabbergasted.

    It would be cool if you could add left/right micropitch (eventide style) and some front end phaser and flanger effects to the plugin to get closer to the Eddie sound

    I love the Polychrome so much. Since day one i have it and it’s what i was looking for a long time. And the new updates coming is what i need. The only thing i’m trying to work out is with my midi Boss FS-1-WL on Reaper. This is the best pluggin you made thomas! Thank you

    Nice to see how easy a solid tone can be constructed. Good talk about the gate at the end of the Video also! People shouldn’t expect it to do all the work and you’ll be a better player if you handle any noise as part of your technique!!

    i don't understand how this with latency works, i downloaded the demo version, used ASIO4ALL set the samples to 64 Samples ( 0.4ms ) and i still get hearable latency. Does everyone just play with that latency or am i doing something wrong ?
    I would love to buy the PolyChrome DSP but i am still better of with direct audio monitoring and my MXR pedal at the moment :(

      Hello! It sounds like your audio interface doesn’t natively support low latency asio drivers. Feel free to pop in to our community Discord for done advice, we’ve a lot of users that recently got up and running. That’s here:
