Well, since it's alive again, might as well reply.

I couldn't really narrow it down to 1. There's a bunch that I respect greatly for various reasons, so I'll just list the few that pop to mind first:

Antti Huovilainen
Mike Janney
Mike Hartmann (formerly Kleps)
Andrew Simper
Didier Dambrin

If your name isn't on this list, don't feel bad, I might have just forgotten about you and would have put you on this list

I'm no coder, but I thought Rich Hoffman is notable.

There are plenty, some (most) of them have already been mentioned but just to take a different approach i'll nominate Akre (Chris Walton to noobs).

The way he handeled the host/client solution in the Oversampler is so genious and painfully obvious once you know about it, it's amazing noone thought about it before. I can just assume many has thought about this before (i know i have) but once i saw that solution it was like game over man. Of course that's the way you do it.

There may be many more that has a consistent record of excellence but for that short moment of genious i say Arke is nr 1.

And thank god you open sourced it,otherwise i had been just as clueless as before.

Jupiter8: not quite as clueless as before but almost.

Synthedit-Jeff - the guy has co-engineered like 10000000000 free plugins, plus sylenth1 and rest of the commercial SE plugs... Wonder how many tunes that are partly generated by Jeff-code?

++ Jeff
DHaupt
Scoof
KDL
et al

anything more "direct" than SE goes straight over my head so the "big guys" all have my respect. eventually maybe one day [like in 100 years] I'll transfer to juce or similar - big-up that too

Gerhard Lengeling. He wrote sequencers for the Commodore 64 (Supertrack) and Atari (Creator) single handed, and was the main developer behind Notator and, later, Logic.

my first thought as well. The idea of mimicking hardware in software isn't quite original, but the way the've done with Reason is just fantastic and beautyfull.
