Which is more than worth the extra 500 bucks for ultimate. But then the only downfall is missing out on the orchestra stuff. FabFilter Twin 2 is equipped with the best possible oscillators, award-winning filters and an innovative interface that makes sound design a breeze Rather use presets Twin 2 comes with more than 1600 quality sounds that you can use right away. So Fab Filter and komplete would be good. Im sure ill be getting bundles but thats just making it hard. But that individually will almost be as much as komplete is by itself so I can't really justify it. But Ive been pretty excited about the fabfilter stuff so its gonna be hard to talk myself out of that.Īll I really need from komplete is Fm8 and another synth. If the mixing plugins in ultimate are better than I'm assuming my problem is solved. I dont know how I can justify paying 200 bucks give or take for Fm8 when I can get komplete for 500. But it comes back to my point up there ^^. Personally, if it were me, I'd get the FabFilter bundle and add on the synths I wanted as I went.I agree, I only need about 10 percent of komplete ultimate. Some could argue that great music can be made with only one synth. But it depends on what OP is looking for. The FabFilter mixing/mastering stuff on the other hand, is really worthwhile. Ps-I get the student discount on Fab so 500 for the 1000 package. But then ill be lacking a multi band compressor, graphic EQ, much all the mixing stuff that I want Fabfilter for. Then there is also the option of completely skipping out on the fabfilter bundle and just going with komplete ultimate. But I dont really wanna spend 500 bucks on komplete let alone 1000 for komplete ultimate. I am thinking of getting Komplete but it seems like a waste getting komplete without it being ultimate because ill miss out on all the nice orchestral stuff. So does Twin 2 still stand up there compared to Massive, Sylenth and all that other cliche/overpriced stuff? Obviously technology keeps going and stuff (may?) get better. So what I'm wondering is how does Twin 2 compare to more recent synths? Reason I say recent is because I can find tons of great reviews for Twin 2 but they are all from 2009 ish. Twin2 wouldn't be my first choice but I already know I'm getting the FabFilter total bundle so Ill get Twin 2 regardless. With all 16-step XLFOs, XY Controllers, Envelope Generators and Followers as well as MIDI Sources you get almost endless possibilities of synthesis.Just wondering what synth i should get as a goto '2nd' synth to go along with Hybrid 3.0 to layer similar patches from different synths for varied timbres. The possibilities of modulations are also special: These can easily be assigned by drag-and-drop in a 50-slot modulation matrix. In addition there are Delay Section, Side-Chain Input, 32 Voice Polyphony and Unison as well as Polyphonic Portamento. The available settings, features and parameters include three oscillators with PWM, hard sync and Phase sync, four multimode filters with filter panning and eleven characteristics.
Apropos presets: With more than 1600 ready-made sounds, beginners can start right away or professionals can be inspired. This can be useful, for example, to see how the presets were created.
The software Synth uses a GUI concept according to the motto: What-you-use-is-what-you-you-see - only the used sections are displayed.
