Thanks, I never heard of Aurora FM. And both of these are quite a bit less expensive! I tried the F'em demo. I don't necessarily trust my ears, they it sounds full and very good to me.

In Arturia Land, there are wonderful synths that have Additive, FM and PD: Synclavier V, DX7 V, CZ V and Buchla Easel V (I love the last one as it is a quality product). There is no shortage of quality synths. The problem is who has the time to master them :hihi:
So true! It gets to be a little stifling !

Someone also told me that Aparillo was FM. I'll have to check that one out too. Too many! Plasmonic is my most favorite synth, partly cause the MPE is so well meshed into it. Maybe I should be getting rid of instruments instead of accumulating :)

What is the natural alternative to Maelstrom ?
Don't trust those with words of weakness, they are the most aggressive

I ended up getting Algoritm/Bass Generator bundle sale (that ends today) and I love Algoritm! As far as I can tell, it has similar functionality to FM8 but the interface is a pleasure to work with. I'm really glad I got it and I think like others said, it encourages run experiments. Just great!!

Best decision!! If you like a particular synth, just buy it and don't look for a substitute....

If you look me F'em's sound that's perfectly fine!
