sounds good but I think you should get as meny VST's as you can and not buy synthisizer and such

rofl
Hardware synths don't crash if you are playing live. I don't mind they are much more expensive. You have loads of buttons awaiting to be tweaked Think you'll learn more with 1 hw synth than having like 100 warez softsynths

today's vst can do the same as the hardware so don't rofl me

My friend got one and another friend of mine regerts buying a roland one

Virus and logic 6 with a mac is allll u need !!
And a good sample cd
I myself have a virus c with cubase sx.. but one day i wana get a mac with logic.. thats the best it can get !!

Some things I can do on computer (like making beats and things associated with that), but synths and stuff that needs to be tweaked and especially made like a nice melody - I have to do by hand.

Ok you guys see all the stuff Im probably gonna get up top, what would be a good sound card for my PC(Windows) and iMac laptop? Also what would be some good MIDI interfaces? I was looking at the Emagic Unitor8 -or- AMT8 since Im gonna be using Logic I figure they would work well together.

I think there is an aura of psychoacoustics that come with hardwear synthesizers.

What differenciates digital hardwear synths from softsynths? They don't use electrical impulses, they don't use vacuum tubes, they are purely digital.

does the Access Virus TDM plugin not sound like a hardwear virus?

tdms dont count ;p

they run off there own hardware resources (ala protools) allowing them to have a godlike amount of poly voices compared to dxi/vst

I find tweaking buttons hell a lot more fun than staring a screen for some hours. Also, Dj Chrono, if you're planning to go live some day. What are you going to do? Ever realised you can do things a LOT faster with buttons than with a mouse. A hardware synth is designed for its purpose.. a pc isnt so it doesn't crash as much and the timing is better. Hardware synths are more expensive.. well a decent music pc will cost you a lot of money + you don't throw away your h/w synth after 3 years + when nobody sees it I give my synths a hug because I have fallen in love with them. Try to do that with software. Just my opinion.. tell me what you think about it. I know hardware vs software is and endless discussion but I know I'll allways be a buttonfreak .
