Hello good people,
I love the sound of Legend, it sounds fantastic! Congrats to the developers/DSP guys! I A/B'd Legend versus a real Minimoog from 1974 and frankly, some patches sounded better on the real keyboard, but some on the plugin too! Kudos!
Now, having a real Minimoog on the road/on stage is a bit cumbersome. I'd love to use a laptop and Legend for live shows instead!
The problem I have experienced is that when I send midi program change to Legend, it works perfectly but it has some heavy CPU usage just for a few milliseconds (while "re-configuring" the synth for the next patch) causing major dropouts in Cubase. This behavior make the click track go off and it happened to us one night on stage! The drummer was giving me the "dirty look", but it wasn't my fault! (We didn't know what was the problem then).
Right now, I"m forced to use a competitor (Diva not to name it! ) and it sounds OK, but boy do I miss Legend, there is no way back. (And on top of that, I'm a little nervous as Diva use MORE CPU than Legend, but doesn't sound as good). The positive side of Diva is that there is no CPU hits when changing programs/patches. Go figure.
Let me know if that happened to you guys, I'd love to find a solution for this and get back to Legend.
Cheers!
