Instrument:
Absynth is damned good. As well as being superb at complex
evolving pads (which it does better than almost anything
else I've come across), it's also (and this isn't
discussed/mentioned much) very good for more simple synth
sounds, like dirty DnB basslines, too.

FX:
I probably use PSP Vintagewarmer most; only software
compressor I've ever been really impressed by.

Just wait, shortly the Max/MSP and Reaktor nerds will turn
up and tell you that using ready made synths is as
uncreative as sampling and how they make truly unique
sounding stuff using their custom drum machine/synth/fx
unit, despite it sounding like a half-arsed Autechre clone
to everyone else.

Also, wait for the hardware boys to come round, saying how
software x can never sound as good as hardware y, in spite
of:
a) They've never used software x
and
b) The bit of hardware they're refering to isn't analogue
anyway.

Disclaimer: Yes, I use hardware, Reaktor, MAX and
VSTs; I just don't agree with the zealots that say VSTs are
inherently inferior. ;-)

Reaktor nerds

So many to choose!

3X osc in fruityloops is actually surprisingly versatile and
cool. I love it!

im told those sound bad (i can't hear it though, maybe it's
just bad compared to analog, i unknowingly once happily used
for acid stuff :/ here)

Its bollox. I especially love ability to put your own
waveform in. Can make some really lovely sounds with that

yea
i liked how flexible you could make the sound with bends and
stuff, you can't do that with audiorealism's bassline for
instance

I really dislike VSTs these days. The classics pack is
really the only thing I use. Their chorus plugin is (as dumb
as this may sound) on of the best chorus`s ever. Not to
cheesy, not to plain. They can really spice up a mix!

My own Filtelay plugin. Instant dub delays.

When I used Cubase I had a group of plug-ins called GRM
tools. Just a bunch of effects that was cool. Not even sure
if these will still work with the current cubase as mine was
3.7.
I've lost touch with VST stuff since I went down the
Protools path.
