impOSCar Quotes

It looks right and sounds right. I was impressed with the attention to detail on all fronts.

I'd bought the Oddity and ImpOSCar a few months ago and couldn't believe how great they were.

The original Oscar was one of only a few analogue synths that I never had the pleasure of playing but after only an hour or so with the impOSCar it's pretty clear that I missed out on a great synth.

This is a programmer's dream, a real variety of sounds are possible ranging from pure evolving textures to hard driven and modulated lead lines. The LFO section is one of the most natural sounding on a soft synth and the effects are a welcome bonus. A modern classic.

Having both an OSCar and Odyssey in our studio we of were very excited to hear their virtual counterparts.

We were blown away!

Both are sonic beasts that truly represent the unique sound qualities of two of our favorite synths. These bad boys are all over the new album. Simply amazing!

I love the impOSCar it captures the sound of the OSCar perfectly, which is one of my favourite mono synths. I have loads of soft synths but only a handful that I turn to on a regular basis, the imposcar being one of them.

Like the OSCar it is unique, nothing else sounds quite like it, but to have it with the addition of polyphony and all the other modern improvements that the impOSCar has is brilliant.

For a long time, I was not a fan of software synths, finding them less intuitive and less musical than their hardware brethren. However, my view is changing, and much of the credit or blame lies at Gmedia's door.

I like Mtron, and the Oddity was the first software synth I used that combined an accurate representation of its inspiration, a good user interface and watertight operation.

With ImpOSCar, the company has gone still further and, now that everything works correctly, the additional benefits outweigh any reservations I might have had.

It's powerful, really powerful and delivers faultlessly. Like it's stable mate, the Oddity, the results are outstanding and leave you with the feeling you've just eaten the best 7 course meal of your life, satisfied.

And with a retail price of around 100.00 it becomes about the best VST Synth classic emulation I have seen.

The result is an extremely powerful soft-synth - one of the most powerful, honestly, that I've ever come across. A brilliantly designed great-sounding virtual OSCar and ASG for a hundred quid. Buy it today.

The character and sound of the impOSCar are stunningly close to the original OSCar hardware, even down to the slightly digital-sounding edge to the oscillators' raw output.

There can be little doubt that impOSCar is much more impROVement than impOSTor.

The sound is simply incredible! The most fun part is to achieve completely unexpected sounds by customizing the harmonics of the user waves. It's a shame that my job is to recommend good synths because I want to keep this all to myself.

I'm impressed by impOSCar. Many sound creating features are far extended coherently. ImpOSCar is no common plug-in: distortions are part of its special sound...

The offered sounds are original: bass line sounds are way more brachial than with any other plug-in.

If you like digital FXs you got to put your hands on impOSCar... The wicked, high powered and harsh sounds make it so different to all other simulations of analogue gear.

After several days with the impOSCar, it has to be proclaimed a winner. It's hard to think of another soft synth with as many features or as powerful as this for as little as 100. Definitely recommended. Produces wonderfully fat, aggressive sounds.

The GForce suite of plug-ins (Minimonsta, OSCar & Oddity) are fatter than a ten dollar pork chop! They are very usable in a wide variety of styles of music.

They're great in the studio or on the road in my Neko
64 virtual synth keyboard. They really do offer a real great taste, MORE
filling sensation!

I use the Oddity for effects so it usually comes in at the end of the songwriting process. There's a fantastic preset called Kamikaze which I use for builds etc.

Then I use the impOSCar for some dancey stuff, MIDI sync'd arpeggiation and stuff like that.

Delicious. Really a new instrument based on that great warm, broad sound of the original. A welcome realisation of a great lost synth of the period.

(I remember a conversation with Paul Wiffen where he said the next stage of the Oscar was a poly version, but sadly, the company closed before this was realised).

So, the polyphony is finally here and is extremely useful. Some immaculately designed patches. Equally adept at groaning organic leads and delicate evolving soundscape pads. Everything from edible to visible to shredded.

I spent an entire day just playing with this one. Got quite lost in all its potential. Also managed to bank and record enough for the start of several new tracks. An inspiration.

The Minimonsta, ImpOSCar and Oddity are my favorite go-to virtual
synths - hands down. In the fast pace world of interactive music scoring
and sound design for video games, you have endless creative
possibilities with this killer suite of plug-ins. They are unequivocally
the FATTEST sounding plug-ins and programmable beasts on the planet!

The impOSCar is the most exciting synth in my set up. It has a unique sound and the Overdrive was quite literally MADE for me. Come On England!

As an avid collector of analog synthesizers and an equal enthusiast of modern plug-in based softsynths...I am always a little scared when a company tries to recreate not only a classic, but in this case something I own 2 of.

Let me say this, the day after I received the impOSCar, we boxed up both my beloved Oscars and put them in storage. This plug-in is nothing short of flawless. Quite simply the best softsynth I have ever heard. The filters alone are astonishing and I must say, although my pair of Oscars have mad sentimental value to me, I can't believe I can carry them around with me in Audio Units versions on the very laptop I write this on! Kick ass guys, a home run.

I was just listening to your preview demos for the impOSCar... man does it sound great! What struck me right off is that I hear a really musical analog vibe from the filters... quite rare with digital filters (as you well know).

Having been a member of the original Oscar owner's club in the mid-eighties (this was made up of assorted geriatrics, weirdos pot-heads!), I was very curious (and dubious) to see how this new damned elusive impOscar would measure up against its mentor.

You see, there was always that ONE sound that you could get out of the original Oscar and not from anything else which made it really quite special.

Well I can honestly say in comparison, after having worked with impOScar for some months now, the answer is simply: Better - and better. Very inspirational sounds, ease of operation, full polyphony, fatter-than-fat bass and many other very cool features make it without doubt one of the best software synths on the market in my opinion. And most importantly, you can still get that ONE sound that sounds like nothing else. In fact, you can get quite a few more than just one! Bloody brilliant - Get one. Now!

Fuck me, it's immense!

Oddity, ImpOscar!!!! Absolutely right on! So far we've used the Oddity in particular on every track I've done. Thanks for being original.

The imposcar has a personality all of its own. It's all over one track on the latest album.

I've been using the impOSCar for about a month now and feel it is one of the best soft synths on the market.

I own a hardware oscar and am finding it hard to notice the difference between the two. The harmonic waveform section of the imposcar goes much further than the oscar and is much easier to control.

The functionality of the imposcar, ease of use and the ability to save makes it my soft synth of choice. I LOVE IT.

The impOSCar will remind us all there was a British equivalent of the Minimoog! The impOSCar really extends on the original classic... the factory patches are really superb.

I immediatly felt in love with impOSCar for its unique sound.

For my productions, it's a very versatile synth. I can use it to make a big and fat bassline, for beautifull large pads, or even moving arppegiators. Build a bass sound using the two oscillator in saw, and you will have the most fat bass sound ever.

ImpOSCar is easy and intuitive to program and all the parameters are on the GUI. The filter section is superb, warm and smooth. Close your eyes, and you won't believe its a software synth!

Today, there's a lot of VSTs on the market, but GForce gives us something that sounds unique and different with their reproduction of this classic and legendary british synth.
