Would someone mind explaining what kind of plug-ins are availible for LIVE? Are there different synthesizers that can be added, or new instrument groups?

Thanks!

I'll be more specific...where can I find plug-ins?

browse http://www.dontcrack.com for starters.

Hundreds, if not thousands, of third party VSTi are available Landdogger - payware and freeware synths & effects.

A good place to start would be getting yourself a log in account to:

...and use the forum tabs on the top right. HTH

Are all plug-ins cross-platform?

Platform? As in Mac or PC? Nope - you'll have to get the specific version for your platform.

You should post what you have, that way we can guide you to the treasure!

See, if you are on XP.. check out the Tricks N Tips thread... there are quite a few exhausting lists for freeware/donationware,etc... If you roll with a Mac, is it a macintel, or g4/5? You would need a universal binary version of the plug if you have a macintel.

How silly of me...I'm on a Powerbook G4 with OS X.
