Let's just put it this, in the dblue glitch thread at the renoise forums, venetian snares posted that he bought it ( at the time it was like $35)
Granted, just cause so and so uses something, doesn't make it a great VST...
but people, if you haven't unlocked glitch from having it sound like itself, then you aren't playing around with it enough as an effect sequencer.
For example, I know for a fact that glitch is the most effecient way to add subtle variations to genres like micro-house and minimal techno, and guess what, it doesn't sound like glitch in their at all if you mix it right.
I think a lot of people end up thinking glitch sounds like itself because they keep the effect mix at a 100 percent and they keeps the modulator and tape stop effects the way they are...
okay that's my rant, and a biased one too because glitch is a smart program, people just can't seem to get past that glitch's default is all in random mode

glitch is obviously a controversial vst. here's my take on why:
what if someone were to make a vst called drone, that made crazy drones with time stretching/reverbs/filter all that stuff. what would people that actually make drone music think of it?
the music i make has been called glitch, but i don't necessarily identify with the genre for artistic reasons. namely, the 'glitch' people see in my technique is the byproduct of a certain style of grain resynthesis, which i use for compositional freedom, rather than as a central philosophy (see: oval). i have looked over dblue's glitch, and it really can't do what i can with reaktor, a little know how and some effort. it seems to be a programmable beat masher. whatever. i don't care. mash those beats all you want, it just makes my stuff look even better. i think someone who was good with drones would say the same thing about a drone vst.

@eyesnine: it costs $ZER0. its immediate. reaktor is $450 US now.
i have no comment about skills of people, but comparing dbglitch to reaktor is like
comparing sudafed to crank or horse.

...or comparing casio demo tunes to glenn gould. we agree on everything but the price of reaktor. ;)
