COuld anyone point me in the direction of a good hardstyle synth?

Im currently using vanguard, pro-53 and a few others.

Presets for my current synths would also be killer

If your into presets..you could check out the Synthation Pro-53 bank. It has alot of screamy leads and such which would go well with hardstyle x]
www.synthation.net if you wanna listen to some sound demos.

I'll say it again, and sorry if its not really helpful, but...

"A synthesizer is a synthesizer, you are the one who makes it a hardstyle synth."

2 Oscillators, one tuned up 50 cents, to other one tuned down 50 cents. Add harsh chorus and tube distortion to taste.

I used to love those presets. I'm going to agree with djsentinel on this one and say almost any synth can be hardstyle you just have to know how to program it correctly and work with what you have.

Take a synth with one saw osc. Turn on pitch modulation on the LFO. Set the rate to a really fast value and amount to a low value (It shouldn't sound too detuned).
Apply overdrive distortion to the sound.

thanks guys, it makes sense to make your own

Im just undereducated.

anyone think they could write out or lead me to a detailed instruction for the basic sounds?

acid, baby. acid.

For my hardstyle prod I am using this free vst plugin based on the roland jp8000 synth.

superwave8

Play around with VST's and tunings until you find the sounds you like.
