I'm going to invest in some more VSTi's for FL.

Re: I'm going to invest in some more VSTi's for FL.

Yeah, actually. First of all you can get those synths with Reason, and you can use reason as a vsti through FL; essentially the most powerful vsti.

Otherwise I'd recommend z3ta+ (for that happy hardcore saw type synth.. It's even get some presets.) Steinbergs hypersonic 2, (I think it's called.) or Native Instruments' Massive.

Hypersonic 2 is used a lot more for trance and happyhardcore.
z3ta+ is a little more simplistic(though still far more complex than a 3xosc configuration) and has some wicked presets.
Massive is basically the most intense synth out there that I've found. I make DnB style reeces, hoovers, and wobblebass lines all in that little thing.err massive thing.

aim me at forteproduction and I can tell you more and let you know the best place to purchase these things.

Re: I'm going to invest in some more VSTi's for FL.

I used to use Massive alot but have had problems getting it to work with Fl8. FL8 ships with Toxic Biohazard which is nice but my favorites are ReFX's Vanguard, ReFX Nexus and Tone2's Gladiator. All are in the hundred's cost wise.... and all are definitely worth the investment. Gladiator is the newest of them and I'm still highly impressed with its ability as a synth.

Sites: www.refx.com and www.tone2.com. Coincidentally(?) they're owned by the same parent company but are based in two different countries. Gladiator is still very new so very little in way of expansions but Tone2 Firebird is a little cheaper and gives several expansions.

There's a trick to make trance leads like the ones you've given examples of in 3xOSC, catch me on AIM and I can show you how to make a basic one if you want me to.

Otherwise, listen to Attitude. z3ta+ is an effing godsend for (sawtooth) leads and is extremely flexible once you get the hang of it (although it's pretty cpu intensive).

To be honest sir, the reverb on the plat saw is very easily removed. It's just a setting with sytrus. If you mean post FX issues, just turn them off in the FX portion of sytrus. If you mean problems with the waveform, adjust it. Sytrus is so versatile it's amazing.

I only listened to the first link you provided, and you can easily achieve that sound with the 3osc. Layer some offtuned saws, add some dist, EQ, get cake. ^_^

Re: I'm going to invest in some more VSTi's for FL.

If you're talking about Buzzer's tutorial, that's the first thing that I had a problem with. Other than getting nowhere with it, I want to have the synth's effectiveness right away and I don't want to wait for the delay to take into effect.

Please tell me how. And you might want to listen to the other examples.

Here's another one. Nessaja by Scooter (Enters around 35 seconds in).



edit: So far, z3ta is winning my support.

Re: I'm going to invest in some more VSTi's for FL.



I think that should do it.

Re: I'm going to invest in some more VSTi's for FL.

What version is your sytrus..
mine does not have all that stuff

Re: I'm going to invest in some more VSTi's for FL.

Alright, thanks a bunch.

I'll still be looking into some VST's, though, so keep them coming.
