maybe even a best piano, organ, brass, analog lead digital lead ditto with pads plucks atmos fx and bread and butter sound synths we beed to expand this into the academy awards with a three or four hour prime time show.

my top 10:
1. Synthmaster,
2. Korg legacy,
3. Sonar's Synths,
4. Native Instruments Komplete,
5. Minimonsta,
6. Omnisphere,
7. Alchemy,
8. Arturia V Collection,
9. Zebra
10 TIE Diva, DCAM, Waldorf Largo and AAS analog whatever its called

I Lock usage requirement equals automatic disqualification by the way. :hihi:
My own current TOP 10 softsynths (no collections like e.g. Komplete mentioned):

- Tone2 ElectraX
- Tone2 Saurus
- Waldorf PPG Wave 3.V
- KV331 Audio Synthmaster 2.5
- Xils Lab Oxium
- Tone2 Rayblaster
- Waldorf Largo
- Dmitry Sches Diversion
- NI Kontakt 4 (favorite K4 instruments: Synth Magic, Soniccouture, Hollow Sun)
- Korg Wavestation plugin


I had voted for Saurus a while ago as ElectraX was not included.
5 synths of my own TOP 10 seem to be included in the final selection at MusicRadar. Synthmaster is the only one in the Top 10 at MusicRadar.

Sorry, but isn't this something personal? :?
If you wanted to follow up, you could have used PM...
It's all about the wavelets. I dream of the perfect additive synthesis.
You can hire me if you are in Toronto! Contact for details.
