I have that on my PC right now. Hopefully I can get it to work on the Mac once I switch over as well.
z3ta+ is Windows only according to their website.

+1 for Nexus
Also, Hypersonic 2 is a must-have for me!

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.
