Scorpion, Triangle, Tau Pro ... all these new dirt cheap (or free) synths are really high quality, quite unbelievable.

Because their sound quality is so good they don't need tons of distortion effects or massive detuning to work (I get fed up of these as it makes everything sound the same).

And because they're not too huge, they're quick to programme and live tweak.

My more expensive synths (Pro-52, usual suspects, etc) now have a fight to get in my VST window.

Anyone else using cheap synths daily in place of the high cost pro models?

One ping for the Mac is pretty good....

I'm still waiting for Tau pro for the MAC !

well i love steiner`s microcomputer. it sounds really harsh and digital and the price is very cheap too... £20 ish i think it was

and i`ve been using the gakstoar delta 1.5 that came free with computer music #30(25 vsti free issue) the sounds i`m getting out of that are phenomenal... evil bsslines with loads of modulation..........ggggrrrrrrrreeeeeeaaaaaaatttttttttt

RGC's Rene was so cool he took time with me to fix whetever was the cause the rgc plugs not working for me, now they do, and I honestly consider them by far the fattest sounding and most full featured virtual analog vsti's out now!!

A nice change from other companies that claim full midi implementation on their websites and then leave out major parts of it.
