Re: [xl7] Best - most interesting ROMs

2014-07-16 by xxxdna@...

i tend to agree with bruno here. the m/phatt rom is pretty useless. although it does have some decent drums if that is what you are looking for.

as far as the TSCY and Beat Garden they are really only useful for drum sounds. their 'synth' samples are pretty limited and not very useful. the HALO/ZR76 rom is alright.. but it also has a bunch of useless general midi soundsets that you will never use. the "perfect" piano was ok for its time.. it was cool 15 years ago but here are a ton of far better sampled pianos that you can get for Kontakt etc. now
if you don't have the composer i would get that as it is a great all around rom.

ive owned almost all of the roms (except for the orchestral ones) and i can say that I probably have used the composer most of all over the years. 

for me, the rom i use the most is the composer. the rom i use the least is the halo (and mp/phatt)
