Basses are very well covered in these sets. Modern set also has quite a lot of organ-ish and piano-ish sounds. A lot of coverage in these areas. Tone2's own sets cover other areas better but these sets are focused on these areas.

Firebird is very usable for many bread and butter sounds. Infinite quality-price ratio, since it's free...

just add 20th bank called '20-PRO' its mostly layered plucks and basses grouped with single sounds like gated pads for authentic combination of sounds .It seems that nobody is willing to donate so i probably will quit the 'Modern Pro' project and Firebird at all to focus on Synthmaster .Cheers

Thanks for sharing

You have tweaked well, but many of the patches sound more or less the same, and titles of many of the patches like "PL-P25PE" doesn't really make it intuitive to know what kind of sound (except being a pluck) it makes. And when presented with so many patches, that is a must, when browsing through them.

I would suggest that you picked out the best patches, and presented them in one collection of maybe 200-300 patches in total.

+1 what Numanoid said.

First don't get me wrong, there are very nice sounds in there. However there are indeed sometimes 5 iterations of the same patch, with a few subtle tweaks here and there. I would indeed do only 1 iteration, perhaps occasionally 2 but with drastic changes to the patch.

The thing is a lot of folks like this synth and keep it for nostalgic reasons. It's discontinued. There is no 64 bit version. Folks are not willing to invest cash in it. That's the case for me anyhow.

I do appreciate the free presets. If somehow I plan on releasing a track (highly unlikely. I am a hobbyist at this point ) that uses one of your patches then yes I will buy it

Ok thanks for positive criticism - i forget to say something about it - the similar patches are with purpose - they are not made as copy of previous patch and little tweak but independently seeking for some specific presence - as well the more is better ,just scroll down until u find the right patch that glue u project...
the next is Synthmaster but honestly right now i have no idea how long it will takes to have same originality like i thing i achieve with the Bird .Cheers

Try to layer different patches especially 2x and 4x for bass or 4x-4x for piano pluck - the result is more than satisfying
