Sorry if i wasn't very clear
I bought the TI when i was trying to produce dark Dnb and originally wasnt too keen, since i have changed over to Progreeive/Trance i love that synth - and wouldnt dream of selling it or replacing it.
Im mostly interested in hearing about what hardware synths people on this forum own or have owned (ive seen loads of symths in the show us your setup page) out of curiosity and a genuine interest in the things Thats why i wrote a little bit about the synths i own or have owned to get the ball rolling |
OK, so you're GAS'ing for something to complement your Virus, then. Got it!
In the subtractive realm, I will never hesitate to recommend a Nord Lead 3. I'd also highly recommend a Prophet 08. I've owned and used both side-by-side with my Virus TIs and they're both very nice. Personally, I think the P08 would be the better choice to go with your Virus, but out of the many, many synths I've owned in my lifetime, the NL3 was one of my favorites. Either synth will work great for trance/progressive house.
In the non-subtractive realm, I'd suggest either a Yamaha FS1R (FM/formant), Roland D-50/550, or Kawai K5000. All of these sound great for pads, leads, basses, and even plucky sounds, but are a bitch to program.
