Re: Plex

2003-09-16 by sincultura13

Thanks! I don't know much about the soft module/synth subject... What 
I'm really looking for is a soft/hard module with good acoustic and 
old keyboard sounds... I'm not much of a synthhead...  I'm quite 
happy in that deparment with my XL-7, the ES1/2 in logic 5 and the 
free stuff I've downloaded like crystal 2. I just mess with the 
parameters til i get something I like... Mostly atmospheric sounds 
and some background melodies/harmonies. Where I'm not fully happy is 
with the acoustic pianos (and strings for the most part)... Any 
advice on that deparment?

thanks again...
