typing error? V-station is the software "equivalent" - I put that in "" cuz it sounds 1/4 as good as the K-Station which is the hardware that v-station was based off of

For dance music, the Virus is probably the best synth that you can buy. ( The Virus is actually a softsynth )To create your own unique sounds, don't use presets. ;)

Well pretty much any V/A is a softsynth that lives in hardware :D.

Well first of all, don't expect a piece of hardware to take your music to the next level. What takes and will take your your music to the next level is alot of practice, hardwork, patience, and most importantly being your own biggest critic(while knowing what's wrong). I can't emphasize that last point enough:nervous: Because if you think that not having a virus is what's wrong with your music, you're going to be sadly mistaken when you get one and realise your music still sounds the same:nervous:

well spoken.. I'm about to get a Powercore to use the Powercore01 and Virus Powercore hardware synths on it, but I imagine I'll still use my copy of Z3ta+ still and Atmosphere as well... It is a bit easier to get a fuller sound on hardware, but getting it won't instantly make you a better producer..

It's called a rhetorical question. If you can't handle that, you have no business on an internet forum.

Guys,

Thanks for all your advice.

So do you think the Roland V-Synth would be a good complement to the Virus?? Basically, I plan on buying two synths but am not sure which is the best combination.

I know I WILL buy the virus, but I am not sure if I should spend the extra money for the Roland V-Synth.

Thanks,

NK

I'm sorry for the temporal lack of my vocabulary.

And yes I can handle it.
Like why should I be offended by someone who I don't even know. :)

Anyways back on track, I think the v-synth actually looks pretty cool, but if you are thinking about buying one, definitly go to a local music shop and spend a bit of time on it, figuring out whether the sounds will work for you, and whether it suites your style of programming.

For 2 grand you can buy alot of other synths though.. Think Dave Smith Evolver ($500), Roland Jp80x0($450 or so used), Nord Lead 2x/3 ($800-14000, Alesis Ion ($800), etc.
