OK...so what's everybody usin'?!?!

[girl6]

Oh well, kind of a boring thread, but maybe it will start some discussion:

My instruments, on a Mac G5 OS10.3.3:

Logic Pro 6 (EVB3, ES1, ES2, EXS24, EVP88, etc.)
Native Instruments Komplete2
Zebra (great Logic Users Group buy!)
Arturia Moog Modular Five-love this one
And Scarbee 73 EP on the way-most likely will replace my EVP88 instances
Freebies Buzzer, Zoid and Crystal

It's taking me awhile to get accustomed to the NI Komplete bundle. What a huge number of plug-ins to learn! Same goes for those in Logic 6. I think that the synth plug-ins will take the longest to master because I'm interested in learning to tweak for my own sounds. I compose R&B and pop music.

Garritan Personal Orchestra and SIR are the only VSTs I currently use (and SIR isn't an instrument), but I just placed an order for Kontakt... can't wait for Mr. Postman...

Oh jeez, how can I forget GPO, my reason for coming here in the first place? I guess I don't think of it as a VI, but Kontakt is the conduit at this point, so VI obviously applies. I'm still learnin' this one, too. I should have done this during the winter months. The studio tan is advancing...

and a tonne of freebies, such as Crystal, Triangle, Borderliner, Mysteriser, etc

Of course at the moment I only dream of using them since I'm up to my neck in marking of exam papers. Oh for the Summer holidays...

I've listed most of what I use in the "Studio" link of my site - an embarrassment of riches, for sure.

Primarily, it's GPO through Kontakt 1.5.2 in Nuendo on PC 1 and SCARBEE RSP, WEP. SID and J-everything bass on HALion2 in Cubase SX 2 on PC 2. Everything else I pick and choose what rides on which machine.
