Brilliant

Again brilliant from Rob Papen. A great selection from the basic presets included.

May be a little complicated for the beginner, but in a nutshell is a very usable synth. I use this mainly for intricate synth work, great for incidental plucks and sounds to fill the spectrum.

Versatile plugin for lush basses and synths

Decent plugin. You can make some really lush reese basses and neurofunk synths!
