If you were stranded on an island(with a studio lol)

What Plug-in instruments would you have if you could only take 5 with you?

Screw plug-ins, I'd take booze, drugs and girls. I'd want to enjoy being stranded on that island.

But would those desert-island plugins be the best "on this day" ?

Oh,another "what's your favourite plugin" thread.

Think I'd take this girl:

ooh! i love this game. i want to play!

lets see;

alchemy
because it's vast and extremely flexible.

hypersonic2
because it sounds great and has lots of ground covered

karmafx modular
because it's so much fun to use and sounds so great and is so flexible - the controllers and the simple routing and way that everything can modulate everything rules.

fxpansion guru
drums. done. guru wins over battery3 because of it's awesome sequencer and tight timing. it can slice, it can stepseq (and its stepseq can midi out), it can import rex2, wav, aif, etc.

surge
because it is flexbile and has lots of options and is dead easy to use and can also function as an effect unit. i would choose surge even over fm8 which would compete for this slot.

yep, that's me sorted.

Kontakt3 (and a bunch of third-party libraries)
NI B4v2
Jamstix and all the expansions
ImpOscar
One of the following - Albino2, Firebird+, Discovery, or Alpha3

And of course Sonar 7P (or whatever I next upgrade to) and the plugins that come with it.

5? Really? You can't get by with one synth and one sampler? I'd go for Surge and Maschine.

This is more like it, it's not a fave plug thread but more of what's your essentials, that you couldn't do without to create whole tunes.

The Desert Island bit makes it more fun.

So for the guys who wouldn't take the plugins, I didn't say you couldn't take anything else...you could of took your booze, girls and stuff anyway. Basically you live on an island anyway and you don't want your plugins obviously as you prefer to do your other vices!

Based on current projects I'd have to say...

Kontakt, Albino, Absynth, CamelSpace and Miroslav Philharmonik.

DMI Flute for me! I couldn't get enough of 'em. If I could have five DMI Flutes, I'd be as happy as a pig in s*ite.

I wouldn't bring my work horses (e.g. Firebird, Massive, Stylus RMX), but I'd take Reaktor, Tassman, VAZ modular, energyXT VST, since stranding on an island would finally give me time to learn and use these, and I'm quite sure they'd keep me busy for quite a few years.
