Computer DAWS and soft synths
Re: Computer DAWS and soft synths
i feel VST are very varied in sound quality and breadth of scope.. but all have weaknesses in integration and control.. so despite having several available i bailed for some time in favour of a couple of VA synths, the ms2000 and nova.
i came back to using vst more when i got the second monitor and a novation remote (so i can keep vst window in view and also have real knbs/sliders/buttons to control the vst parameters).. then, irritated by always needing to launch the DAW (Sonar) just to noodle with the vst i also downloaded VSThost.. a simple VST wrapper... so now it integrates quickly, simply and quite nicely with the FG and 2 VA..
what i use most is Z3ta+, also some dimension pro and some rapture.. but if i had the cash i would invest in omnisphere without question, but i fear i would play even less and muck about even more than i do now..lol.
