![]() ![]() For a DAW I switched from Pro Tools years ago to Cockos Reaper, you can use Reaper for free indefinatelyin demo mode, or buy it and get rid of the nag screen for sixty bucks. ![]() Some of these soft synths give you time limited demos, Arturia for example will let you try out their new V collection which includes a very cool Synclavier and Roland Jupiter 8. Is up to you but this are my thoughts on both of them for trap producers. My PC is home built with an Intel I7 5ghz (overclocked) and 16gb of ram, and my iPad is the big iPad Pro with 4gb ram. You want Omnisphere or the Arturia V Collection. Both give you under 2ms latency with a fast computer. For my iPad I use and Apogee Duet, and on my PC an Emu 1616m. I should also mention your computer and audio interface is going to play a big part how pleased you are with soft synths. so it appears there are no NKS presets for the instruments listed in Version 8. Im now looking hard at a triple Moog Mother 32 analog setup (half the price of the Kronos and more unique) ' NKS compatibility currently unavailable for Analog Lab V, Vocoder V, Emulator II V, Jun-6 V, Jup-8 V4 and Stage-73 V2'. I thought hard after getting my Jupiter 80 about getting a Kronos 88 too, but after playing one for about an hour with headphones on at the local GC, I came to the conclusion that there was nothing I was hearing that I pretty much didn't have covered in my studio of soft synths, I was basically looking at replacing my Roland RD-700gx with another 88 weighted key controller, but have decided to keep the Roland for that role and save myself four grand in greenbacks. Also have started incorporating my iPad and the excellent soft synth apps from: Native Kontakt (tons of sample libraries) ![]() Some of my most used VST soft synths are: well myself I play/write in the style of Chick Corea, Jan Hammer, Vangeles, some prog type stuff, smooth jazz, etc. I like its 76 keys and all the pretty colored buttons and lights, it reminds me of my old Jupiter 8 which I foolishly sold in 1988. Trilian and Omnisphere, and Arturia's V-Collection of classic synthesizer. The Jupiter 80 is now my mother ship (central DAW controller) in my studio. thats like asking whats your recommendation for ice cream flavors :) If you haven't gotten into the world of soft synths yet, after you do that might be ALL you ever use again :) Its been 2 months now since getting my Jupiter 80, and for the first few days I played around all day with it, but after that it was internal sounds off and VST's back on. ![]()
