Thought it would B interesting 2 C what SoftSynths R designated remakes of Hardware synths. I didn't realise that was the inspiration for so many programs.

This link listed some.
http://emusician.com/ar/emusic_real_emulated/index.htm

I've picked up on a couple others by hanging around these boards.

Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 emulated by Native Instruments' Pro 52
Rhodes electric piano - Emagic's EVP88 & Applied Acoustics' Lounge Lizard EP-1
Hammond B-3 - Native Instruments' B4 & Emagic's EVB3
Yamaha DX7 - Native Instruments' FM7
Hohner D6 Clavinet - Emagic's EVD6
Nord Lead - Disco DSP Discovery
MiniMoog - Steinberg Model E

Also the e-phonic SawBox VST is apparently a version of a 303 but I don't know who made the 303.

there's also
mellotron - mtron
ppg - waldorf ppg wave

Quote:

MiniMoog - Steinberg Model E

Mmmm... That wasn't a good emulation...

Arp Odyssey - Gmedia Oddity
Osc OSCar - Gmedia impOSCar
Waldorf Rack Attack - Waldorf Attack
Moog Minimoog - Creamware Minimax
Sequential Prophet VS - Creamware Vectron
Novation K-Station - Novation V-Station

Roland made the original 303 Bassline

There are a shit load of emulators of that box about, free and commercial.

umm Roland TB-303 ?

Everything that came to my mind is listed already
Arturia Moog Modular V - Moog Modular ?

And I understood that in the future also Korg will produce virtual instruments of their MS-20, Polysix and Wavestation.

Waldorf Rack Attack - Waldorf Attack

Didn't the rack version come out after the VSTi?

Oberon http://www.funkelectric.com/~cockaigne/

Now there's a concept.
Hardware versions of VSTIs.
I vote for Z3ta+.

Until then, there's plugzilla http://www.plugzilla.com

was wondering how long it took for that question/comment to come...

Oh Yeah! There's a vsti version of the Jen SX1000 , too.
It's found at .... http://www.contralogic.com/synths/
It's called Leto.

Nice tip, scuzzphut. Those Contralogic VSTis are excellent.

Rack Attack made a big splash here in that it probably is the first software to hardware port. I think the software is easier to deal with than the hardware from the few times I've been able to work with it.

Prime candidates for porting:
z3ta
Rhino
VerSyn Tera and Cube
Absynth

I doubt it will never happen as all of these synths are highly programable and would need good user interfaces and control surfaces. They'd cost a lot of money too.

more realistic candidate for porting:
Junglist
Pentagon
Albino
rack modules of the synths in the other list with editing done using the same UI as the soft synths.

The bigger question would be whether any company would make it worth the developers time to port to hardware. I have no doubt that we'll see such things frequently in the near future.

There was an RTAS version of the Waldorf Q announced at NAMM,too...
ew

well at least that brushed aluminum look has gone forever ....
hang on ..... (looks at own MIDI controller) ...



arrrghhh it's back !

Waves remade the L2 limiter as hardware.

Hey guys, what about the vaunted Stylophone VSTi?!

Dash Synthesis' daHornet is a Wasp.
Oh and their ComboSister is a neat generic combo organ, dunno if that counts but it's useful.
And Elogoxa's Sun Ra is an emu of part of his brain...I think..but that's wetware.

uh your missing Arturia Moog Modular V, and Poly Six, WaveStation and MS20 (Supposed september from Korg) !

B.

Let's not forget the MANY emulations released as Reaktor .ens. From
Roland to Oberhiem to ARP. Speaking of blurring the lines between
hardware and software howzabout Akai? Can't hardly wait for their
release of Z8! Oh yeah, and Arturia claims that their next project
will be an emu of the venerable Oberheim Matrix 12 possibly to be
followed by a Yamaha CS80 clone.

There have also been quite a few hardware synths
and FX recreated with Synthedit. EMS Synthi, ARP 2600, EH Microsynth,
Roland TR-707, 808 & 909...etc.

Cheers....CL

here are a few that were missed:

reFX - JunoX2 -Roland Alpha Juno 1/2/MKS 50
Muon/CM 101 - Roland SH 101?
Muon/Tau Pro - Roland MC-303 Lookalike
mda JX10 - Roland Juno 106 Soundalike
BigTick TickyClav- Honer D6 soundalike
Turntablist Pro - Technics SL 1200 Mk3 (sort of)
TC Mercury-1 - Seq Circuits Pro One (?)
reFX QuadraSid - Commodore 64 SID 6581 chip
Waldor PPGWave - PPG Wave
Virtual Guitarist - Acoustic and Electric Guitars of many types
Cheeze Machine - Solina String Machine?

that's all i can think of that havent been mentioned...





now what i want is a Roland 1080 VSTi!!!

i never understould why people liked roland devices.

erm don`t we forget one

delay lama - emulation of a human ware tibet monk

I REALLY wish someone would come out with vsti of Serge and Buchla modulars!

FM7
pro 53



(im still waiting for my fizmo vst!!)

Dreamstation - Bass-station? I think its based on the Novation bass-station


With all the hype On this little beauty not one person mentioned Synth 1 the free softNord

um

Revitar - emulation of a Gitar
DMI Flute - emulation of a flute
DMI Hammer - er Hammer

of yeah

Quadrasid - emulation of a SID

I would pay a LOT for an Ensoniq SQ80 software emulation!!!

Listen all you developers....

Ole

Edirol HyperCanvas - Roland SC88

VOPM - YM2151

What about the Elogoxa emulation of an EMS VCS3? I went to their website to check it out and it isn't there anymore. They did have Elotronnix 2 (or however it's spelled), a virtual Revox recording rig for Frippertronics, however.

The only analogue synth I ever owned was an Oberheim Matrix 1000. I know it's a preset machine but I'd love to have those sounds just the same...

it's not a preset machine at all. you could always fully program it using sounddiver or explorer1000.
then it even feels like a plugin...

YEAH!!
I love this one

What is explorer 1000? I've tried Sound Diver but it doesn't fully support my ASR-10 so if there is something else out there I'd like 2 give it a go.

The VCS3 emulation was by Richard Brooks, it's still available on his website:

hth,

Crazy Diamonds is a Solina String Machine as well.

SoloStrings is an 'emulation' of an acoustic guitar (not quite the hardware you're on about).. Stratavarious is guitar too.

infact most of the PM stuff is supposed to be a software copy of hardware/ real insrtruments, even tho' it rarely sounds in tune...bends too much for me, solostr seems pretty good tho.

What I would like is a VSTi of my old Korg Delta, or my mates Yamaha CS30. Actually a CS80 would be nice, but the touch strip would (of course) be missing... but then it is on most of the one's I've seen anyway!

Nice thread this!

DSP

I want a vitual Korg Z1! Hey if Novationcan make a virtual K Station, why not?

Well, you learn something new every day!

All the more reason why someone should turn it into a plug!
