why do people feel the need to so loudly profess their lack of interest in a discussion?

sheesh etc...

I wouldn't want to be open to criticisms of unfairness or dishonesty - would three years be long enough? That's how long I had mine.

Reread what I wrote..I do not care if you like it or not. Just respect what others decide to use is my take. There is no way you can prove an opinion. It is best to stick to the facts. The fact is all of these tools are great and we are all lucky to have these tools compared to years past. Just use what is best for you....that does not require you trying to prove one synth being "the best". I am interested in this discussion but not when it gets silly!

If budget is a concern, have a look at the Waldorf Blofeld. Comparably very good, and using it is child's play while you can still go deep.

The same reason we tell people to use the search function when they ask a commonly asked question, the same reason Mac/PC threads are locked, the same reason that concurrent threads discussing the same topic are merged, etc. It's obviously not about a lack of interest, it's about redundancy. And, yes, this topic has been discussed to death here.

Yeah, there is nothing quite like clicking through layers of menus on tiny lcd screens

To Virus or not to Virus?

This is a fundamental question, when it comes to trance production. Would Armin van Buuren's tracks sound as good as Orjan Nilsen's, if he used the TI too? At least, when you don't own one, you can blame the crappy VSTi's.

I think Armin uses ES2

The former is more based on facts and the later more based on opinion. Adding both to the discussion becomes far more interesting than just the later.

the formner is not based on facts, its opinion.
'she has blonde hair' is 'a fact', saying its 'a quality' is an opinion.

Q: How many trolls does it take to start one more virus vs software thread?
A: Any, and all of them, at any time.

Q: How many trolls know how to use the KVR forum search?
A: None of them.

"I cantz make Trancez withouts V1rus. Plug1ns are sh!te...Pleaze Help"

Is it something to bet on a Virus synth?
