No, actually, the problem is people who feel the need to post about every thought that enters their tiny minds, no matter how insipid and idiotic the topic may be, and then blame the problem on people who dare to vocalize their disagreement/disdain instead of walking away (and thus, giving tacit support).
We already have 50 "software vs. hardware" threads. Even if you absolutely had to tell everybody what you read on some sample site, it sure as hell wasn't thread-worthy, you could have posted it in one of the other discussions. |

Yeah, I just meant the synth sounds. |

I've never really used VSTis. I started either before they were immensly popular or just before I joined an online community thus had no idea what I was doing ... so my first instrument was a real physical keyboard. Nine years later I still use only "hardware" ... NL3, Virus Ti, Alesis Andy, Prophet 08. I don't even have ROMplers like NeXus or Omnisphere. I agree, it does sound better. If anyone disagrees: you, have fun with your -synths.
VST effects are somewhat of a different story. The hardware processors do sound better, but not by a whole lot. Certainly not enough to justify cost and complication. Waves/Universal Audio FTW.
What we really need here is either a VST processors vs analog processors debate OR an integrated chips vs discrete circuitry debate. :D |

Explain. My terminology is correct: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rompler |

| apparently omnisphere isn't just a rompler, it's a synth with rompler capabilities. or a rompler with synth capability. whatever. |

| Omnisphere also has traditional oscillators that allow for subtractive synthesis, plus it can do granular synthesis using the sample library, if I remember correctly. Someone who has it can explain more... |

| Out of all of the trance interviews I have read and watched, no professional has said that software sounds better than hardware. |

Whatever indeed. Close enough. Forgive me for assuming a 30gb synth coming from a company known for making ROMplers wasn't entirely a ROMplaer. |

Thank you for speaking on behalf of the entire trance production community. Just because you have some pointless hate for VSTis and only use hardware, doesn't make you better than anyone, its just a terrible mentality to have. Respectable producers will also admit to using ROMplers... because maybe just maybe it isn't about your technical ability all of the time. |

You obviously didn't read my entire post. Enjoy your soft synths. You're certainly not convincing me to pussify my studio. |
