KIA wants your $$$ - FREE VST synth with nature sounds

https://worldwide.kia.com/int/sounds-in ... instrument


This has nothing to do with cars, but KIA/HYUNDAI does know how to make an impression . The website has a bunch of frothy lan-guage but no specs. The utube reviews give you an idea of what it really is.

I don’t do software or romplers [unless their ROLAND MCs] but my 1st EV will probably be a kia or Hyundai now . . . .

I suspect Kia is going to give Elon Musk a run for his money.

I think what they are doing is marketing to musicians to listen to their own music in Kia cars.

I don't know how true this is, but I heard from several owners that sound systems in Kia vehicles are top-notch, but when I came across specs there's nothing that beats the sound systems in my Acura MDX and RDX.

So my question is: Is it the way the interior cabins are designed that makes Kia drivers think the sound system is better than it actually is?

My final test of a mix is to bump it thru my truck sound system from my FIIO player via AUX. I leave the EQ all flat


1] test 1
How does it sound inside while driving

2] test 2
I open all the doors & trunk & pump the volume up in a non-residential hood

A lot of these upgraded audio systems are SO-SO. I rec getting a used truck/wagon $10-30k & then dropping $1-5k with your local installer. There are some great equipment deals on ebay but I don’t skimp on my installer.

Trucks/wagon are much better for acoustics then sedans/coupes.
I rec a lexus RX or Subaru outback
