phraktol 23 Posted June 30, 2014 So, I'm trying to get back into producing music. I used to produce a lot of electronic/EDM style music, but havent been doing it much lately. considering I'm working heavily on a large scale RPG project, I figured I'd start working on some concept music. So I figured I'd ask around here, if you guys have any particular VST synthesizers you use for producing? Primarily stuff with a 16 bit style. I like organic sounds as well so if you know any good software for realistic instruments that would also be nice. I use Fruityloops Studio, and primarily use Sytrus for the synths, because I'm comfortable with it, but I'd like to find something a little more specifically geared towards that 16 bit sound. Any suggestions? Check out my most recent song here and if you feel like giving some feedback I would appreciate it! Thanks everyone! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schematist 47 Posted July 15, 2014 I love Massive,FM8,Zebra, and absynth, For 16 bit sounds I am not sure what to really go with though. That is really up to the the musician, but you should check these out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drumming_blitz 1 Posted September 8, 2014 I just started to make my own music and I use fruity loops to make it all. I'm just building up my collection of VSTs now, but I find that this site is a good source for them. I have found some really nice sounding plug-ins on here, such as a nice violin, a bas guitar and orchestrial strings.http://www.vst4free.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff Moore 3 Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Fruityloops here too. The 27 meg orchestra soundfont is pretty good, especially if it's smothered in reverb. I'm pining for EastWest Symphonic Orchestra, but it's pricey. I like your track a lot, phraktol. If I was going to criticise, I'd say a key change somewhere would be cool, but maybe just a brief one as I also like the oppressive feel you build with the repetition. Nice work Edited September 8, 2014 by mostly useless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CountSymphoniC 3 Posted September 10, 2014 If you want more authentic 16-bit FM synths, try VOPM. It's free and is pretty much an emulation of the Sega Genesis sound chip. Quite fun to use actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
