good 3rd party instrument or vst for mac with ableton?

Post by JLaws » Sat Mar 28, 2009 8:40 pm

Im getting tired of the sounds I have and want to try a 3rd party. Preferably something that works with an arpeggiotor with electro sounds... I have been having trouble with others that friends have sent me, so please something that has been tested to work easy on a mac

have you considered buying reaktor5? go through american musical supply online and you only have to pay 1/3 of the cost per month and they send it to you the first month. Only need a checking account, no credit check :D and since you buy it you can have access to the user library which is Mighty. Similar to a triple angry whopper.

You should be more precise.

What do you need? a substractive synth? a sample-based player / fx vst?, a bass simulator, an effect sequencer? and so on..

do you need a vst to compose lead melodies, bass lines, drum parts, to browse thru gigs of sample loops...?

So the cracked software your friends are sending you doesn't work? Bummer.

The purchased versions usaully work great with a purchased version of Live.
