"The Omnisphere I usually use for pads, breakdowns, or strings, or more of atmospheric things, but there are some really great baseline sounds in the Omnisphere. There's a great Arpeggio section in the Omnisphere."

"I've known Floris, one of the big guys behind FabFilter, for a very long time. We even did some tracks together in the past! When I heard he was involved in making his own plug-ins, I was immediately interested and followed him since. It's fantastic to see the company being so successful today. I like all FabFilter plug-ins and I've used all of them in my tracks."

Armin speaks highly of the FabFilter Twin software synth, calling it very "unique".

"I made some pads. There are some really greta pad sounds coming form the Nexus. This particular pad is one I edited from one of the presets."

"So for this particular lead I went into the Zebra plugin, but I stacked it with a few other plugins."

From a testimonial by Armin: "I love the SynthMaster and I've been using it in all my recent productions. I really love the cool way of editing and especially love the FM sound. Essential for my set up!"
