Exactly, people - usually the few that are impressed by a supposedly underrated synth - FEEL that their synth is underrated, assuming others just don't know it and hence don't agree with them.chaosWyrM wrote: ok...im not trying to argue with you about it. i think you simply have a fundamental misunderstanding of the term "underrated"....as per your logic...nothing can be underrated, since everything gets the rating it deserves.
seeing as how we have a 20 page thread of synths people feel are in fact underrated...i think most people here may disagree with your assessment of what underrated means.
But I think that is not the case with software synths, which are discussed by a very global, connected community. In today's world it is indeed hard to find something that is truly underrated or overrated. I mean, who does the "official" rating? Probably the vast majority of people...
It's like with movies. Some people love a certain movie and can't understand why most other people don't love it. Or the other way round.
