Question: What VST SoftSynths do you use?
My Answer: None because they all sound like crap.
The common sound of "VST Trance" these days sickens me. It is so very obvious when a track is done with all software. If I did just about any other genre, the idea of using all software would appeal much more.
But I can't think of another genre that is more synth heavy than trance. The leads, pads, basses, and percussion are all synthesized. The hardest of the 4 to do on software are leads. Not only will they sound bad, but will eat a chunk out of your CPU.
The software studio is still in its teen stages of development. With the advent of dual-core CPUs, I think we can expect the quality of the FX and Instruments to more than double by 2008. But until then, hardware will rain supreme in terms of quality, usability, and CPU efficiency.
Why do you think it costs so much more than software?
