Hey, I'm a newbie :-) I'm actually an audio engineering student, but I do a lot of home recording just to practice, and I want to get a soft synth that is pretty much as versatile as I can go. VST Synths that I have looked at and are interested in are: the Arturia Minimoog V (obviously), GForce impOSCar, GMedia minimonsta, and a few others. I just want something that has a variety of sounds but that is also pretty programmable.
Ideally I'd like something that can do traditional sounds like rhodes, wurlie, etc. but I understand that that's sort of a different realm of software. Any suggestions on this front or on which of the above you feel is the most customizable and diverse would be GREAT.
Also, I'm looking to get a controller. I have it pretty much narrowed to the Edirol PCR-50. Any objections?
Thanks so much for your help. Goodness knows I need it :-)
