what synths does the pro use like armin v , tiesto, pvd, atb, ? does anybody know?

[BertKoor]

They use anything they can get their hands on which in their view might get the job done best. It's not the gear (be it hardware or software) but HOW they use it. Explore what each knob does and the possibilities that offers, paired with some musical and production talent plus actual skills and lots of time spent doing it.

I suggest you do the same

Honestly, there isn't some magic synth that "pros" use which separates them from us mere mortals. Everyone has preferences when it comes to instruments, but unless you're looking for some specific gimmicky signature sound, you really don't need a certain synth to make a certain type of music. The emphasis should really be on learning about sound design, developing your playing technique and compositional skills, learning to mix and master properly, and most importantly, imbuing the music with your own unique aesthetic sensibilities rather than trying to copy someone else's sound. Just my two cents.

In all honesty Michael, the advice by deastman is spot on.
Though if I had to narrow your quoted producers down to at least one particular instrument, I'd probably say that they use this plug in

I actually wonder how many quotes in a quote are possible.

Don't give up with the quote. For the OP, they use their brain. Each synth have their own character and these pros understand the best way to exploit these character.

This is giving me vertigo

Edit: Also look out for things like the Computer Music and Future Music session videos where people walk through how they made a track. I'm sure there are other places doing that sort of video too.

Real pros use Nexus2 Pro, a secret version of the product that isn't available to non-pros.
