Does anyone really "need" a synth?

Well, we don't really "need" toilet paper but we may be getting into semantics at this point.

That sounds like a new thread. You will be stranded in a tiny hut in the arctic circle for a year. Almost all of your provisions are provided for. Your hut comes fully equipped with a modern computer with an operating system of your choice, a high quality audio interface, a 61 key controller, and a single pair of high quality monitors.dblock wrote: ↑Fri Apr 30, 2021 9:26 pmWell, we don't really "need" toilet paper but we may be getting into semantics at this point.
There is one problem.
You have no internet, and no ability to download anything. All you can do is use the tools that are on the computer or that you bring with you to make music.
There is one more problem.
"Almost" means this, there is no toilet paper nor any reasonable approximation.
You have been granted a budget for a year's supply of high quality toilet paper. The average person uses 50 pounds per year, or, approximately 410 rolls. You have been granted $2.44 cents per roll for a budget of $1000.
Before you leave, you must purchase, in advance, all of your toilet paper and all of the software to produce music. You may not use any communistic open source software or free tools. Real musicians pay for their software. They want everything professional, everything high grade.
Upon return, you must bring with you a fresh track to please KVR or you will be sent back for another year with no additional budget.
What do you buy?

If you mean the software has to come out of my toilet paper budget that would require some serious professional consideration right there.ghettosynth wrote: ↑Fri Apr 30, 2021 9:45 pmThat sounds like a new thread.

Reaktor Kontour is probably not going to sound vintage analog unless you really want it
Two-operator [weird implementation of] PM type of FM with interdynamic filters... gets pretty gnarly into inharmonics if you like, FX in it are pretty much 'modern'... gets way into _resonant_, a rather sensitive beast
also, too, Reaktor Spark
wait for it
Absynth

For a modern sound recently I've been turning to Rhizomatic Software's Plasmonic and the aforementioned Vital and Newfangled Audio Generate. Those along with some specialized effects can open you up to a world of sound possibilities that would keep anybody busy for years to come.
