I use Vaz 2010 or Vaz Modular

LuSH-101 is multimbral… but here's the catch: it doesn't exist yet… any… day… nooowwwwww….

No, he said different synths......

jupiter8, I really wish Studio One had a similar option.

Himalaya, I already own Halion Sonic + Halion 4 + Mach Five 3 + etc.. etc..

I'm more interested in actual synth's such as sylenth being multi timbral, or synths like that, more VA's with the option perhaps Alchemy for instance

Either way I'd like to see more DEV's start creating these.

osiris, lol I'm hoping for a miracle

I guess my gut reaction is to do this in the host. Its 'easier'. In the host, they all work the same way.
Although I see how there could be some unique interaction between the layers if the synth was built that way.
But I also dont think I ever got my head to this level of synth programming really. I dont know what Id do with it except create face melter pads for ravers.

Do any of these few have presets that show off the layers? Electrax?

All these miniclips are played with ONE instance of Synthix ... Live

See the interaction at 1.41 in the Tdreamesque clip. Some sequencer events can trig some layers parameters, wich can themselves trigg some global Fx automation, in many clips, the Glide and some of the filter automation are global, but can also be altered in the layers themselves, also the playing modes can interacting with all the above in many sophisticated ways, and with the arpeggiators. Thats how deep you can go.

Zang. That is pretty deep. Amazing.
I cant even wrap my head around how its being played.
Are those presets in the demo?

Pita to program though....

ElectraX has a seemingly more elegant solution and makes it easy to create some pretty rich and powerful sounds - the layers of the synth are just *much* easier to access edit change etc, or just more intuitive...

Use a MUX.
Inside it you can layer anything and modulate anything. It's a Combinator on steroids. It even has a drum module, sampler etc.

Unfortunately no its in an add on bank Le Lotus Bleu is just releasing for the Synthix, you can find more details and more audio demos in this KVR thread : Big Sounds for the XXIsrt Century

No, I know what I do. I use Bidule.

Seems that some other people have less problems to program it :

Synthix Splits and Complex

One instance of Synthix playing ..... live. No daw automation, no nothing. Music ......

Not saying that Synthix cannot become a bit complex to program : Power has a price. But everybody can program it at his own level, and it is always rewarding. The good news it that there are many presets you can deconstruct to learn how things can be done, or, if you're not interested into that, just PLAY.

You may be joking, but Vaz 2010 and Vaz Modular can both host 16 synths.
And it can be a combination of it's own synth and vst synths with insert effects.
So you could have in channel 1 a Vaz synth with effects and in channel 2 a vst synth with effects which can be vaz own insert fx and/or vst fx.
If you set them to the same midi channel you can play them stacked.

For a nice phat sound, why not stack 16

Yes Vaz is powerfull too.

I forgot to mention it but the Legacy Cell from Korg is also nice. It can handle any combination of MS-20 + Polysix ( up to two only but with full polyphony) in a nice Shell with macro buttons + you can add up to 4 Mdex effect per patch.
