are the new home for the Seer Reality and SurReal software synthesizer
artist community, offering high-quality banksets, loops, samples,
and sound fonts for Reality and SurReal users.
2002 06 15: Reality of the Situation
The current lack of "NT" upgrades to Reality products
does not need to be a problem. Many of the new architectures introduce
delays that Reality users have never had. Seer products work great
with Windows 95/98/Me, as long as you avoid WDM drivers that come
with some new sound cards. They also work well with Cakewalk,
Cubase, and all the other major sequencer programs as-is. We also
observe an international market persists were OS and cpus are
not changed as frequently. The price-to-performance ratio of a
sufficient Intel PC, Reality or Surreal, sequencer and digital
output card simply cannot be beat.
We are not aware of anyone who has exhausted the sonic potential
of these instruments. Most importantly, As we've always said,
if all you want is a simple "analog" synth, or just a sample-playback
engine, go and buy the flavor of the month. On the other hand
if you want a totally integrated instrument that includes analog,
FM, Sondius physical modeling, sampling, modal synthesis - the
whole tradition - all available simultaneously, we're basically
the only game in town. And you can always try our free demo versions
first on a modern installation.

to in recent magazine articles. Example instrument designer's station:
PIII (600-800 MHz), Windows 98, Reality, and a S/PDIF output card.
