KVR Audio

great new issue of computer music mag. a very detailed, in-depth look at their top 10 synths for 2012. plus they talk to the developers (so people we know from this forum)...and they asked some artists for their fave synths. interesting choices. still have a lot to read thru. well worth picking up.

(the only thing they missed, LOL, was a chance to ask lennard of sylenth1 fame when he's gonna update the plugin, and give us a 64bit mac AU. i myself ask this regularly on the kvraudio forum, and am famous for it).

of course, my top 10 list is a little different...

Got it last week. Yeah, my top 10 is different too but still pretty close. It's more about the order.

Is it ok to list the top 10? I would love to see the list, but I'm in the US, that isn't on our shelves yet...

liked the depth review of each synth... need to begin to create my own patches and stop being a preset chaser

It was a good issue, nice reviews and tutorials but I thought Alchemy and Diva would have been higher on the list.

Where did Omnisphere place?

fisherKing · Post by **fisherKing** » Thu Aug 09, 2012 11:48 pm

here it is (but BUY the mag, or the iPad version..). it's a great READ.

10 alchemy
9 fm8
8 diva
7 impOSCar2
6 zebra
5 omnisphere
4 dcam: synth squad
3 synthmaster
2 sylenth1
1 massive

my OWN list is pretty different. (and MY list is of course more 'correct')

now, let the ranting and raving begin...

Ohhhhhhh Noooooooo

Seriously, as mentioned: You get *sweet* 'how-to's' showing you some use of each of these; for 5 bucks US$$ D/L this issue is a cheap/cool resource (I have 9/10, so no-brainer buy for me)

computer music mag's top 10 synths...
