The PG-8X must have been a monster. At a certain point, I’ve become lesson inclined to install YAVAS (yet another virtual analog subtractive) onto my machine. So without some demo audio, I think I’ll pass. However, I will say that what I’m looking for and have not yet found is a VI with really smooth fast short envelope ramps (attack, decay or release). It is a very specific little sound, and it seems that most VI’s can’t seem to make that happen. They can do lots of other things quite well, no doubt. But I’ve noticed with a high-res LP or BP filter sweeping downward or upward quickly (like 20-50ms) and I always hear zippering.

I’ve heard analog synths do this with no problem. It’s not impossible with digital, but it must require something different than the current architecture allows. BTW, if anyone knows of YAVAS that can do very quick envelope ramps smoothly, I’d like a recommendation. (iOS or Mac OS- AU).

If you want the sound of classic hardware synthesizers in your DAW then check the list bellow for some of the best vintage synth VST, AU plug-ins. Softsynths are definitely the most convenient option when it comes to synthesizers and if you’re keeping your entire music production inside of your DAW, virtual instruments are the perfect choice to have everything at your fingertips. Software synths are very much like hardware synthesizers, I could even say that some digital versions sound even better than the originals. Thanks to our computers they run on, this Virtual Instruments have more memory, handle larger sample library, offer higher sound quality, great looking user interfaces, not occupy physical space at all and the price is significantly much affordable. The advanced technology from our days has allowed some of these have new features, unique parameters not found anywhere elseoverall they are just better. Modular V by Arturia Arturia has successfully managed to recreate one of the most famous series of synthesizers: Moog Modular.

This analog synth is one of the absolute modular synth, I can say, the “father” of all upcoming analog synths. Arturia managed to create a great virtual synth that emulates sound, feeling, look and entire experience that Moog Modular can offer you. The Modulav V VST synthesizer plugin was developed in close collaboration with Bob Moog himself to insure an accurate recreation of his awesome synth. More Details: 2. Diva by U-he The second place in my opinion is for Diva synth by U-he, a great synth developed by U-He that features finest synthesizer modules (oscillators, filters, envelopes) from the Minimoog, Jupiter-8, Juno-60 and MS20. With a beautiful GUI, Diva captures the spirit of various analogue synthesizers by letting the user select from a variety of alternative modules. Diva is available via u-he website priced at $179.

It was quicker and the price was better than I could do it for, that’s a large selling point for me.
