SONICALLY Best VST Synth

[chk071]

Saying that Omnisphere is a rompler is like saying Dune is a rompler... they both play back samples. They both have a synth engine.

What you perceive as sounding better is irrelevant to that.

Yes, Omnisphere is not a rompler, it also has a synth engine.

In its time the Emulator III was also a Rompler/Sampler with excellent features, but it was still a Sampler with synthesis capabilities. What I mean is that Dune was created as a synthesis engine first and then incorporated samples, it is not the same as Omnisphere was created, just like Atmosphere originally by UVI, a rompler with some synthesis capabilities, limited. Omni sounds great, but the sound of Dune III is far superior.

...To your ears, to my ears Dune 3 sounds far away better than Omni...fat and real synth, Omni is a Rompler [ such as Emulator III ] plus some synth stuff...Dune is a pure synth such a Oberheim. End of Story.

fair enough if you prefer the sound of dune but omni also having samples and not being a pure synth doesnt mean the synth part is any less good, dune can play samples too

Make a trust comparison in your studio, compare them and you will prove me right. Dune III sounds better than Omni, but Omni its a great Rompler.

im not debating you on which sounds better
omni having samples does not make the synth part of omni bad
dune being a pure synth does not make it a good synth, there are bad pure synths and good synths that are also samplers
dune is a good synth for other reasons, and omni is a good synth regardless of its samples

Saying that Omnisphere is a rompler is like saying Dune is a rompler... they both play back samples. They both have a synth engine.

Dune 3, deal with it

No, it is not irrelevant, it is the most important thing, the final sound and the punch and you are wrong, it is not to perceive better or not the sound, it is to know that it sounds better, if you do not know the difference is your problem.

[chk071]

Ok. I consider Spire much better sounding than Dune. If you do not know the difference, it is your problem.

See the issue with such "ultimate" statements?

[j wazza]

im now sensing that either english isnt your first language or youre trolling by deliberately misunderstanding

the sound of the synth is important, but not relevant to a seperate sampling part of the plugin

i think you might be trying to say that samples are the main thing for omni and falcon and synthesis is an afterthought, but thats not the case, both of their main thing is being a hybrid between synths and samples

Your mistake is 'consideration' or your perception, and it doesn't work that way. Let me give you an example... when vinyl records were mastered in the 80's in the last phase for the Master, a person with 'ears' was in charge of doing it and knew that it would sound good, because they know how to listen to what sounds good. In your case, your ears are 'average' and you don't know what good sound is. Therein lies your problem. If you had to process a 'master' of a band that sounded good, you wouldn't really be able to do it, you have 'ears' for your taste, I have 'ears' to know what sounds good or not so good...which is not the same thing. Dune is superior in sonority to Spire...by far.

[chk071]

I better go to sleep now.

[Examigan]

It's not worth arguing about. Use what you want to use.

[ghettosynth]

Oh cmon, the Emulator was never a Rompler. Let's not confuse Rompler with Sampler. That's like confusing egg-salad with cat-food.

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned AA VA-1 yet. Such a vintage sound, That's hard to get today.

I can't believe anyone has been falling for this obvious trolling.
The appropriate answer to a troll on this scale is: No you are wrong. Dune sounds shite, you are a deaf c*nt and hence deaf c*nts cannot possibly be right about which synth sounds better. So c*nt off you trolling c*nt, as DT might say.
There ya go, that was easy.

[Erik_Lucas]

For what I'm going for, I'm finding u-he's synths to be the best sounding.

Uhe synths are the best synths ever. Nothing sounds better than a Uhe synth.

I think that this is the best thread on KVR, sonically.
