No, I didn't say I preferred software over hardware, I prefer hardware over software because my astigmatism will make me get headaches looking at a screen for too long.kritikon wrote: ↑Mon Apr 11, 2022 10:37 amThere are a shitload of reasons. The main one being I f**king hate working with software synths on a mouse with an absolute passion. And it ends there. I can buy 3 or 4 plugins for every hw synth I buy but hey, I simply don't want them and likely never will. Doesn't mean I don't use plugins where it gives me some advantages etc but for every reason you name for preferring s/w over h/w I can give you a reason for preferring hw over sw. It's one of those silly arguments that Bones gets into and I simply dunno why people even suggest it...you have your preferences, we have ours. I can do exactly the same thing on a plugin Opsix as I can with a hw Opsix. I have both. I mostly prefer using the hw one. Why do you even want to start such a puerile argument?Constructed Identity wrote: ↑Mon Apr 11, 2022 3:07 am Well, last month I got Flow Motion for next to nothing because Waves had a big sale and it seems like it provides all the FM abilities you would ever want.
There is no reason to buy any hardware for FM synthesis, it is a digital process!
I know there are some workflow considerations, but that is why you adapt.
I am just saying that one synthesis method that is most usable via VST is FM because it has come a long way if you look at the software I just got.
BTW I have only opened it once so far in the couple weeks since I got it....so I just have first impressions.
