ok, i admit I am a newb regarding softsynths.
But my main question is: Being a fan of fatness im sitting here with eyebrows raised wondering about the thin sounds im hearing from these things. I would of expected that nice fatness without layering ect. Can someone please give me some input on this.


Thnx

Reaktor = sex.

Some people say even Reaktor sounds thin, but if you work with it, you can get some deep bass out of it - and Reaktor is all about working with it. UNF!

BTW, you need some decent speakers if you're going for fat... if you're just using a pair of $20 computer speakers, everything's going to sound thin.

But I'm going to just go ahead and assume that the Sonar synths are shitty, 'cuz Cakewalk is shitty.
