This is the original Abakos (the PRO version is below). It is frequently considered as one of the top 10 free Virtual Analogue VST plugins ever made.
Testimonials found on the Internet:
"Abakos: A great sounding poly VA with a twist. Using some programming voodoo Abakos is able to play back as many voices as needed using only a flat amount of CPU. In other words, your computer is taxed the same regardless if you’re playing only one note, or 12. Great for those of us with older (or notebook) DAWs."
This is the follow-up Abakos PRO. 100% free software. The main difference is the included arpeggiator. Otherwise these two instruments are pretty much identical.
