I still after after these years havent found my number one virus style go to vst synth. All of the vst copies they sounds to lifeless and thin. There is something with the air the virus pushes. Diva is the only vst I know that also pushes air similar to this. Its more physical then the rest of the vsts.
But if Hive was extended with scanable wavetable oscilators that could pretty much be it. I will get it now anyway, just for what it is because it can still improve my workflow for some basic virtual analog sounds. But im goung to make a big wish for an upgrae with wavetables and on top of that 4 lfos would be the icing of the cake.
People that get into zebra all say they dont need other synths. This ofc greatly inreases workflow. Im not a zebra/modular type of guy. I prefer more clasic synths. My dream is a vsti that can do for people like me what zebra did for the modular guys.
I would still use analog type synths lke diva, and crisp digital synths like fm, and virtual acoustic stuf. But a Hive with wavetables would replace 4 or 5 other synths for me.
