This was the first subtractive snth I got really into. It's so good! Matt Tytel also made an open source wave table synth called vital that I'm also in love with that you can find here: https://vital.audio/ git repo is here: https://github.com/mtytel/vital. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
Don't forget Vital which is Matt's newer synth. It continues to be open-source as well. https://vital.audio/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
Good stuff! I started getting in to this at the start of the year. Already had an old, dusty MicroKORG and MIDI interface to use it as a controller, but recently splashed out on a bigger controller as the Korg's tiny keys were hurting me - plus, I wanted something bigger to get better at piano!

Serge is great, but Vital whips the llama's ass: https://vital.audio/ There was a time when Sylenth and Serum-quality synthesizers didn't exist for free.

Today's producers are downright spoiled with so many excellent free options! - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

So now I too have Diva, Hive (and a bit more) then also grabbed Bazille shortly after. Yah, here's the next person sharing his admiration for U-HE :-). Source: 11 months ago
If you need sampled sounds of acoustic instruments Kontakt is the industry standard. Particularly to create soundtracks the likes of Berlin strings, Cinestrings, Cineperc, etc etc all run in Kontakt. V-Collection shines in modelling synth hardware. The advantage is that you can modify the parameters live and they are not (although they may be sometimes) effects applied directly onto sampled sounds. This collection... Source: over 1 year ago
This is true. I use Bitwig Studio which is native for Linux and has a bunch of great stuff built in. A couple of companies I've found that have great native Linux VST plugins are Audio Assault, these are also a very reasonable price, and u-he. Not to mention you can use SFZ instruments with Carla from KX Studio. But I've found that I prefer the raw samples and using Bitwig's own multisample file format. Linux... Source: over 2 years ago

Also, most of the big VST development companies release at least one product, or a entry version of their paid-for products, for free, most of the time you just need to sign up for an account with your email address. Some examples I use: Https://u-he.com/ Https://labs.spitfireaudio.com/. Source: over 2 years ago
