    VSTs that you're using

    Just wondering what you guys are using, whether they be commercial or open source.

    I can't do without:
    Massive
    Vanguard
    Nexus

    Well, I could do without them, but they do wonders for creating incredible sounds that use to take me weeks of processing!

      LOL! I've got quite a few a few from that list as well, actually only a few I don't have (but I'm about to look up, because you have good taste!).

      It's probably hard, but could you narrow it down to top 3?

        Re: VSTs that you're using

        I got it down to the top five:

        Pentagon I (It's great for Basslines)
        Magical8bitPlug (Amazing for anything, 8bit or not)
        Toxic3 (Great for supportive pads)
        Vanguard (Amazing for leads, sucks for everything else)
        Hypersonic (Amazing for everything)

          Agreed! I'm going to check out Magical8bitplug and Hypersonic. I used to use the Pentagon a lot, but it would kill my processor I have to create samples with it, and then use the samples in my projects, LOL. You can get all sorts of good sounds with it. Is there a fairly new version? I got mine in '05 I think...

            I'm using v1.3, but I have no idea what current version it's in.

            Edit: The FL Kick is remarkably powerful if you know how to use it. The amount of badass jumpstyle and hardstyle kicks you can get from it is stunning.

                I haven't used the FL Kick in years, just because I quit doing electro stuff. I have messed around with 3xOsc to make some gabba kicks. I might fool around with FL Kick again, since you've mentioned it.

                    Re: VSTs that you're using

                    Are we just naming VSTis?

                    ToxicIII (Great for pads, like Starshot said)
                    Vanguard (Leads and arps)
                    z3ta+
                    Nexus
                    Gsinth2
                    dblueglitch

                    Those are the ones I use the most (still hardly; I'm a 3xOSC / TS404 guy). I also use a high range of vst effects but I'm not gonna list those.

                      Re: VSTs that you're using

                      I mainly use these:

                      - Zebra (I found this a week ago, I'd never even heard of it but it has some of the most original and usable sounds I've ever gotten out of a VST before)

                      -Atmosphere (best pad VST ever)

                      -Vanguard (usual reasons, though I don't use it much)

                      - Hypersonic (everything)

                      - z3ta+ (good for leads, I use it for basslines sometimes too)

                      - FM8, Absynth, Massive (All NI synths, good for everything all around, though I don't use them much anymore)

                      - Nexus (amazing piano synths, everything else is very average)

                      I have a few others I use on occasion, but the above synths I use in virtually all of my music.

                            I don't really ever use VSTs, sometimes I use the Voxengo GlissEQ VST or Voxengo Elephant, which are probably the best limiter and EQ on the planet, and they're free, which makes it even more incredible.

                            The only thing that's gay about Reason is that it doesn't support VSTs. it's got a nice collection of vsts with the program itself, it'd just be nice to incorporate outside ones into the interface as well.

                            And what the hell Cynispin. Where you been? I miss you
