are you talking about like super saw trance pads or something, cuz z3ta+ and vanguard will get you that.

but for bg and atmospheric pads use hypersonic 2 or absynth, those are good synths for those kind of pads.

NI FM7
spectrasonics atmosphere
protoplasm (free)
NI Absynth
Chronosis
Roland JD-800

Best pad synths =

Kawai K5000s
Roland JD-800
Most of the Korg AI2 style synths (Wavestation, 01/W, Triton)
Roland MKS-80
Khayat
Atmosphere

Isn't that a sampler :conf: :conf:

Cronosis, I tried that jd-800 the first time some weeks ago at a friend's studio and it's really a great sounding synth.

Absynth 3 for all pads...simple as that...does everything just have to have some knowledge about how to work the amazing synth.
Diginerd
Pad synths of choice for me:-

Analog Pads = MKS-70 (big), MKS-50 (Small but cool)
Digital Pads = JD-990 (Rackmount JD-800 on Steroids), Korg Wavestation (Any version), Collection of random Fairlight samples.
VSTi = Atmosphere, Absynth

Though I have been known to use a mutltitude of diferent sytnhs & treaments for pads.. These are jsut starting points.

It's sample based so doesnt count as a synthesizer.
