WHICH FREE VST IS BEST FOR YOU - I DEFINITELY SAY ''FIREBIRD'' THE ''FORGOTTEN MONSTER '' WHICH HAS AMAZING FILTER SECTION ,BUT WANNA HEAR OPINIONS - CHECK MY DEMO OF ''PROGRESSIVE'' SOUND LIBRARY IN YOU MIX AND TELL ME CAN YOU MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THAT WITH ANY FREE ONE - IT SIT MORE NATURALLY THAN SOME OF COMMERCIAL ONES.AS WELL IT'S PERFECT FOR LAYERING WITH OTHER SYNTHS LIKE SPIRE,SYLENTH1 -IT GIVES SO MUCH OF CHARACTER AND IT'S SO ADDICTIVE TO PLAY WITH IT .CHEERS:)

Demo song made with 3-4 (from 512) patches and free FX (Melda,jb,reax)on master bus:

DISCUSSION BEGIN :) NOT COMPARABLE AT ALL - I WILL SAY THAT FIREBIRD BEAT EVEN SYLENTH1 IN SOME CASES - PLAY A BIT WITH MOOG,M-SHAPE ,NOTCH OR SYNCIE FILTERS AND YOU WLL SEE WHAT HAPPENED :) NOT TO MENTION HOW MANY WAVEFORM COMBINATION YOU CAN CREATE AND WITH MODIFY OPTION YOU COULD HAVE SOUND FROM LIKE 4-6 OSC ... SUBTRACTIVE SYNTHESIS IS SO ADDICTIVE :) CHEERS:)

It is "bad form" to write in all caps on an internet forum.

THE TOPIC WAS FREE SYNTHS NOT MY NARCISSISM :)

Thanks for not writing in caps. I believe you'll get more and better answers that way.

To play a devils advocate: there are at least few totally legit reasons to write in all caps - bad eyesight for example, or a broken keyboard. :)

On topic.
For me it is Xhip.
I can get it to sound kinda like Polymoog (left), kinda like Jupiter 8 (left), kinda like Diva (right), kinda like OB-X (left and in progress).
I have fun using it, and it only crashes or does unexpected things very rarely.
Thats all i need.

Synth 1 is still the king of freeware synths in my opinion.

Oh and Firebird was not "freeware" for me.....I paid for it and for an upgrade to the Plus version. :wink:

Kinda more abandonware really. It was put out to pasture.

^^ I take that back, at least they updated it to 64 bits.

One cool thing though, it was updated to 64 bit apparently, I own it but never got any notice about updates, and rarely used it, but I'm reinstalling it now.

Firebird? Nope, 32-bit only unfortunately...

My favorite free synths are Synth1 and Aalto Solo.
