Well I don't disagree with you because my experience with Falcon and UVI is similar both on the positive aspects and the less positive ones. But I was answering to somebody who managed to understand, appreciate and be productive with the workflow. Who am I to say it can't exist?I consider myself to be deeply into sound design especially deeply powerful digital synthesis. Over the years I have used a lot frustrating UI's in both hardware and software. From the DX7 which I learned to edit like the back of my hand on the 1980s to the D50 and JV1080 which were deeply powerful but had tiny screens to all kinds of plugins with crappy designI do believe you that if you invest time on Falcon to learn its intricacies, it is immensely rewarding with a lot of power at finger tips. Not even talking about the scripting power.
The reality is, that it's 2024 not 1984. There is zero reason to use Falcon when you find it's interface to be crappy unless you are paid to design presets for it
I tried to become a power user for Falcon. I spent dozens of hours using it and reading about it and watching videos about it. The more I learned about it and the better I got at using it the more frustrated I become with the entire experience.
I got good enough using Falcon that I began to realize that it was the user experience itself and the workflow that the software forces you to use that was getting in the way of my creativity and not the fact that I needed to learn it better
Falcon sounds great, UVI makes great patches and expansions for it. So I use the presets or sample them and bring them into HALion7 or Omnisphere which are two other deeply powerful digital synths that I have invested enough time with to consider myself to be a power user of both. The way they are designed the workflow and experience doesn't get in the way of my creativity, it's a shame Falcon does
