| after looking through and reviewing a lot of synths, i have found absynth, z3ta and atmosphere def the best for making any type of sound you want ;) |

| V-Station is THE tool for creating fat basslines. |

For me the best means - rgc z3ta+. i think it's most usefull softsynth ever. also patches made by community are great (ie. virus mod - you can get it from kvr-vst.com).
i love freeware superwave p8 - great for pads (like ie. rank 1). supersaw rocks :D |

Idunno, I disagree.. I think that the VStation bass frequency capabilities are minimal. Granted, with effect processing and mastering you can achieve the desired sound, but I felt that its bass potential was fairly thin sounding. The VStation was somewhat a letdown for me. The frequency response and output were minimal compared to the hard synth. It's about 1/4th as warm, and it just doesnt really cut it when it comes to producing warm vibrant voices. At the some 400$ or so cost, when comparing to a used but mint condition SNII on Ebay for like 600-800, it just doesn't add up to a good purchase.
Then again in contrast to most overything out there availible for PC production it tends to drab many others in comparison.
Despite my grumbles, I really do end up using this VSTi anyway.
On another note.. I didn't catch if anyone mentioned Isotope Ozone here yet, I'd like to say though... That this could be the final missing polish for alot of amateurs out there.. For an all-In-One realtime mastering prog, it's fantastic. absulutely fantastic, and for the new kids, don't worry whatsoever, its all super visual, theres nothing to really learn as long as your ears are finely tuned : )
P.S. (Isotope Ozone will make that VStation F*ing HUMMM).
There ya go.. My 3 unwated cents. : )

I've been checking out z3ta+ and it's very nice indeed... Also worth checking out is Steinberg's D'cota. Pretty good for atmospheric pads etc... has an excellent sound quality, too. For more info, click HERE

| Great thread alot great info. Question: on the Pro 53 and fm7, it seems to be a delay when i am playing the keys. I have seen it somewhere,and i been looking all over. Someone had mention this before. What do i need to adjust, so when i play the keys will follow up to speed to what i am playing? i know its something simple sorry but thanks . |

you need to either buffer length or your latency amount.. it depends on whether or not your sound card supports ASIO.. and if it does support ASIO, turn it on.. |
