When I say Sleeper, I mean a VST that is not commonly talked about. Some examples NOT to use would be Nexus, Z3ta+, Blue, Albino, Vanguard, Gladiator, Korg Legacy, etc.


My sleeper:

I personally love "Octopus" from Linplug. It's kind of expensive ($129) as an "uncommon" VST but it produces some quality sounds. If you have some extra cash and are looking for a good sequencing VST then check this puppy out. It is fantastic for atmospheric effects.

Is FM8 a "sleeper"?

Otherwise I'd choose Shuniji ( http://www.hgf-synthesizer.de/se/shuniji/shuniji.html ), or EastWest Vapor ( http://www.kvraudio.com/get/993.html ). Those two can make the most outstanding pads I've ever heard.

Alien 303, a must for psy basslines and acid lines, good filler for bass.

Edit: Cybernetika this should be something you would like if u havent tested it yet.

FM8 is not a sleeper, I don't think. The other sure are, and that pad comment has me curious.

I need to quit asking questions or I'm going to have to foreclose my house (just kidding, but I've been spending too much on production lately)

Crystal.

Its a free VSTi that has more useful sounds than multi hundred dollar Vsti's.

Google : Crystal VSTi. Enjoy.

3xOsc

That's all you really need to know about Sleeper VSTs.

The generic sound is hyperly overused though.

You know, William Blake said... uh, nothing is lost. Nothing is lost and I... I really believe that, we only move on...

For Logic users: ES2. Highly capable, and sounds fantastic. 3 OSCS, dual LFO, FX chain, analog "mode", unison, tons of waveforms, flexible mod matrix, and the oft-unused vector mode.

Unfortunately, you can only get it with Logic.

Golden ASET.

It's basically a rompler with a very simple subtractive synth built in. But you can make some really nice, spacey pads with it.

Anything from Ugo.

And I want to say Reaktor, because even though the name is well-known, most people really have no clue how to use it.
