Not to insult you (more like I'm insulting the Abes...), but I'd buy Electric for maybe $50 tops. Sorry, bro. Sorry, Abes.

yeah, no offense to the poster, but for such an amazing app, the vi's suck the big cock.

^ I'll disagree on the native Ableton plugs (Sampler, Operator, Simpler, Impulse -- these are excellent), but any of the addons (AAS) and the other "content" that comes with each release just doesn't live up to the Ableton name.

Disagree Nebulae.
Electric, Tension and Analog are all excellent. As a former piano player, I find that these instruments are very expressive for soft synths.

Your actually right in that regard, I should have clarified. I was just being a jerk rubbing salt on the wound.

Cool. Glad they work out for you.

They work for me too. Great plugins. Electric is the most responsive electric piano vst around. Tension is a lot of fun and capable of some very bizarre sounds as well as string instrument emulation.

What I think is objective for many live users is the need to have a dedicated electric piano plugin. Ditto a physical string modeller, kotos and zithers are not very prominent in techno and progressive house or tarnce.

You all want your multi oscillating, phat filters, big sounding analog synths such as your zebras and massive and reaktor synths etc. I would agree that Analog only partially satisfies that need, and that the supplied presets are not Earth shattering. The GUI is a bit awkward too compared to the eye candy of Zebra etc. But it is a powerful synth and stuff like the covert operators number cruncher set shows it off a lot better.

Anyway, my 2c

I'd (respectfully) be interested in hearing you exdpand on this. What is it about 7 that you dislike.

you realise that if this is a suite version you can't actually sell the plugs seperate right? at least I don't think you can.

the reason I ask is cause most people wouldn't actually purchase these plugs seperate as the suite is such a better deal it's almost a no brainer.
