what would be your dream VST?

[cobalt1]

Reaktor's sound quality is top notch if you know what you're doing.

My dream VST is a software/hardware hybrid via USB that would take brain surgery. The hardware part wouldn't be much more then a massive DSP station and a jack (USB or some kind of digital connector) that you jack into your cranium. It would have one mode where it would simply output sounds that you imagine, but it would also have another mode where you would basically enter an alternate reality matrix (Not much like one in The Matrix but more like the one in Neuromancer) and you would suddenly appear in the magic studio of your dreams, where the sound you make in it is beamed out to your computer via USB.

I think you took "dream vst" very literally.
In that case my dream vst would also hardwire into my head providing me with something similar to star trek's "hollo deck"
from there I would load any simulation I want, any instrument, played by any musician, from any planet, a ridiculously hot secretary would act as the recording device righting everything down legibly via her tongue onto paper? no, platinum records...all previously labeled with my name on them.

I would also invent a new form of distortion, the sounds produced would be conducted via a chain of high school students playing broken telephone the first we can name "input 1" and the last we can call "output".

I would load up the Swiss alps for my echoes and a room full of half full wine glass's for reverbs, I would have one of those remote controls from the movie click to substitute the transport panel…. also no dream vst would be complete without a happy ending, if u know what I mean.

But if I cant have that im content with "notation space invaders".(see first post)

Dream VST?

Instrument: Yamaha SW1000XG VSTi
Effect: Automatable graph distortion VST (Automate how you draw the morphed envelope)

[stanlea]

A vst that makes me stop wasting my time on KVR

[bugs]

Atmosphere 2 and Reaktor 6, especially if they had childern together.

[G&L_player]

My dream VSTi, would work perfectly, be easy to dial in, and not require updates. How did this get lost in transition?

[creaze]

Mine would be the 1998 Seer Systems "Reality". Implemented as a VSTi and producing 96k output.

[GHOST19]

A VST that sounds like a virus and that costs les than 50 euros.

can the OP's idea and the rest of the thread be split into two?
Because as dorky as "Notation Invaders" really sounds; i think it would really be an awesome learning tool.
Especially for me.

[aMUSEd]

A proper Yamaha VL based plugin with polyphony, aftertouch and breath controller support and additional algorithms for Piano and other tuned percussive sounds and an improved flute and the plucked string algo from Creamware 6 string and 4 way model morphing (even better 4D space/time morphing).

Not asking much

[Waker]

Korg Oasys with full Karma 2 implatation, and all the bells and whistles.....And next to none CPU drain....

[JackDark]

I know what my dream VSTs would be, but I just haven't made them yet.

Other than that... I would love to see a VST that could take incoming sound and alter that incoming sound into graphical parametered filters you could apply to an image in real-time.

[droneofkc]

1. Blowjobalizer VST (explain itself I guess....)
2. Philharmonicalizer (turns cheap GM strings into a Vienna sounding monster)
3. Tidy upulator VST (cleans the studio)
4. World-hitalizer VST (duuh.....)
and last but not least:
5. bitch pleeeaze VST (makes any stupid chick sound good)

[exquisiteoath]

I would dearly love something free that runs series style LFO's (ie LFO1 into LF02 into LF03) without funky osc's...

Nice straight sin/tri/square/phase oscs, the above mentioned LFO's, a modulation matrix, a gate a la Texture, Ring Mod, white noise as a seperate signal path throug the mod matrix, a distortion, a delay and a high quality reverb.

Whenever I do find series LFO's they seem to be HG fortune synths and as much as I respect the guy I have a hard time wrapping my head around his oscs. If UGO or Bones are reading this, I think either of you (my current personal favorite synth programmers) could do this very nicely.

Hell, I could do it, but I haven't the time or the energy to learn a new devolpment language... I barely get enough time to make music as it is without trying to build synths.
