I have spent many 100 dollars on software synths made by u-he (their officially unsupported Linux versions, which works great) and why, because they have sounds with feelings. Deepness. And there are some people out there making (and selling... ) great patches. These are not hyped C64 sounds. They are humane, real. > Then again, I prefer hardware synths anyway and bought only a couple > of synth plugins (for windows), which I seldom use. I also did. But then I was very impressed by the u-he synths. Such feeling. And I have no problem saying this here because it should stimulating for the open source community. Why is it that when deep sound algorithms are found, that it goes closed source ? I think it is because of the found value in expression. Human expression. Although yes, to make Bazille make farting sounds is (hyperventilating) funny, there is a universe of expression beyond that. Not sure the above make sense :) Cheers, Tschüß. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
