Once you do, it's indistinguishable from other Minimoog VSTs, but a) you already have a Minimoog VST somewhere on your hard drive - in fact, two or three more probably appeared while you were reading this - and b) Diva's better) Mini (not bad, but there's approximately one billion zillion million Minimoog VSTs out there, and this one's a bit polite-sounding - you have to do some fine-tuning to get it to sound less sterile. Honorable mentions: Ob-Xa (probably on par with Matrix-12, I just haven't really spent much time with the Ob-Xa in any incarnation, so don't have enough of a personal feel for it to really "recommend"-recommend it), Jup-8 (it's a Jupe-8, for crying out loud!) Just a very capable all-around polysub with a delicious filter. Matrix-12 - if you're more into subtractive, you can't go wrong with this. Very versatile if you can wrap your brain around the modulator/carrier way of synthesis. Being able to just draw envelope curves with the mouse in DX7 is very, very nice.ĬZ - a fun and underrated little synth, Casio's answer to FM back when Yamaha still had FM under patent. DX7 - while Dexed is free, DX7 has such a fantastic UI (just to be clear, it's the standard UI that all V Collection synths have - which is a fantastic UI, dang it) that it still might be worth a purchase if you're into FM.
