Yeah, I mentioned the fruity vsti thing a while back... It looks nice... I've been a supporter for awhile...
For those of you who aren't up to speed with the Fruity of the last few years, heres a rundown:
VST and DX compatible, ASIO (with really good latency, I get about 8ms with SBLIVE hacked drivers, on a good day), tons of included synths and fx, (3 delays, compressor,granular synth/sampler, 3osc synth, ts404, mdapiano and epiano, buzzmachine compatible, an fm synth, soundfont player, internal beatslicer,formula (math) controller, peak controller, chorus, 3 filters, phaser, reverbs, phase inverter, flanger,scratcher, 2 eq's, x-y controller etc etc etc) LAYERED channels (tidys things up), channel groups, you can finally assign drums up and down the keys, multiple outs (as of 3.5)...
Piano roll for all samples so you can get a groove (no more sticky 16th note step sequencing, unless you want to)... all kinds of crazy ways to automate (knob to knob, knob to volume peak, knob to lfo, knob to math formula, knob to midi apreg... whatever....),
Its all very fast and cpu friendly, great tutorials.... and very intuitive, once you get used to working in the environment made for software, as opposed to hardware (ie, reason, which seems rather silly to me, emulating hardware...)
Anyway, it's not a "pro" track per se, but you can check out my track "kind of automated", which was done almost completely in fruity (i sampled a juno).
People have had a stigma about it and stayed away for awhile, but its come leaps and bounds since then... especially when you consider its FREE updates (about 1 every 6 months, sometimes more) which are usually STUFFED with new things and you get those FOREVER... Once you buy it, thats it.... Great fucking deal....
Anyway, if you havent tried it in a while, give it a shot... You'll be surprised.
