What are some MUST HAVE VST's (Soft synths/effects/etc)

For Trance/Dance/Electronica Music?


From what research I have done, Rapture is pretty popular, as well as Dimension Pro.

I know Battery is also a must have for drums since it makes life much easier.

Also Camel space for gating effects etc. (But I am not sure since I have never tried it)


Your input is appreciated. I am in the process of getting some gear/software together, so need some input!

Thanks!!

Oh yeah, forgot to add Z3ta+

I have that on my PC right now. Hopefully I can get it to work on the Mac once I switch over as well.

These are my essential plugins, and they're all free.

VSTi:
Synth1
Xhip
KarmaFX Synth
(Don't expect great presets with these plugins. They're VERY capable synths nonetheless.)

Effects:
Basslane
All GVST plugins
BuzMaxi 3 (Surprisingly good master limiter)
Nyquist EQ
All KarmaFX plugins

Albino is a definite must-have. Blue, which is designed by the same guy, Rob Papen, is somewhat similar, but has pretty solid presets. Vanguard is a nice synth to work with because it is very straightforward and produces crisp sounds.

I don't believe there's any fx or synths that are must haves honestly. Figure out what you need. What synths you'd go for is entirely up to what sonic flavour you're after. I have predator and sylenth1 among other older vsti synths, and those are really good, and should cover most of your needs. The new synth from tone2 should be essential though.
