For less than the price of buying those 3, one could purchase Logic and Komplete, which would give you far more functionality... A world class DAW, a whole bunch of fantastic FX (especially useful for processing ambient recordings), physical modeling, the ability to make your own multi-sampled instruments, Reaktor Blocks which is like a software eurorack modular, all the vast number of other cool stuff in Reaktor and the industry standard sampler in Kontakt. You also get additive synthesis, spectral synthesis, a more complete granular synth, a full on FM synth and so on.benjamind wrote:Well, if you're into making ambient music, Omnisphere 2 is a Godsend. It has a huge palette of incredible sounds, pads, hits, arps, and keys. One could only have just Omnisphere, Trillian and RMX and be able to write just about any ambient music they desired.
That's a big selling point. At least for me it is.
Likewise, it is easy to put together multiple other sets of plugins that would not cost more than those 3 and with which one could also make ambient music for the next 20 years and never run into any meaningful limitation.
