Originally I wanted to say Vocaloid, but then I remembered about the huge thread about it here (that is lots of people's first contact with us music producers) :lol:

So instead I'm gonna say Crystal, for a free VST it sure is very deep:

FXpansion's modulation system is the most extraordinary out there. Even unison voice number is exposed as a modulation source, so you can pull off insane feats like every voice in a unison stack having its own oscillator sync (or any other) value. Harmor also exposes unison voice number as a modulator, by-the-by.
Combine Strobe2 with a Roli Seaboard and you‘re blown away and will never again think about something else... :party:
100% agree with you, now with Cypher2, and equator, a lot of synthesis is covered.

I hope that ROLI puts the upgrade from Equator Player to full version eventually on sale...

AdmiralQ's PolyAna doesn't get enuf discussion specially the effects version. Here's a demo I made processing an electric guitar track through PolyAnaFX.

Before..... https://soundcloud.com/smh2600/clean-st ... -polyanafx

After....... https://soundcloud.com/smh2600/admiral- ... b-on-strat

PolyAna (perfect name btw) was pretty "big" on KVR for a while I think. There was an update to the GUI recently? Always meant to try it...

Circle 2 hasn't had a lot of love here unless I've missed a few threads - it's got a decent feature-set and that great modulation system, though I think maybe the filters were a bit weak? I have a license but had some problems installing when I switched back to Windows and just haven't gotten around to messing with it - may be that it sounds better than I remember (and I think the presets were a bit unusual).

Although not the most non-discussed, below is a list of VST synths that I find are good, but rarely discussed on KVR Audio at this time:

* Applied Acoustics Systems Ultra Analog VA-2
* Fabfilter Twin 2
* iZotope Iris 2
* Rob Papen Predator 2
* Tone2 Electra 2

+1 for Iris 2. Awesome concept, sounds great, and the workflow is great.

Twin 2 is a beautiful synth, and easy on the eyes.

+1 for Strobe 2.
His one page synthesis parameters has really a lot to offer.
Really like the way it sounds.

Yea you can customize the GUI...... http://www.admiralquality.com/poly-ana-custom-skins/

And yes- what a perfect name for an analog poly-synth!!

Nobody ever really talks about Europa, even now that it is possible to purchase it for any DAW. I've heard a very few people say they were considering buying it, but very little actual discussion about it.

I love the hell out of Europa. Especially considering both that and Thor are in Reason Lite. Such a powerful little synth, and, dare I say, a slight tint of KORG Oasys PCI vibes.

I have to disagree with you 100%. Synth1 (IMO) is an excellent plug, free or not. :D
