After (literally) years of reading (not always comprehending!) reviews of software products, but clinging onto hardware methods for dear life, Ive taken the plunge. Limited to an emac G4, I opted for a focusrite Sapphire as an interface and today bought the Native Instruments "essentials" pack - Abysynth 3, Battery 2, Pro 53, and Kompakt soft sampler. Do any of you seasoned experts thing it will be a tall order to get to grips with these? Abysynth, eg, is clearly targeted at sound designers.
And will these as my initial tools, (plus the cubase that gets loaded with the Sapphire) be sonically good enough to make broad-castable material (obviously the songwriting and arrangments are down to me). Or should I have put up with the ocasional clicks and buzzes of the Digidesign M Box to have acces to the plug ins that- it would seem - appear on most hit records? Sorry the post is so vague, but I would really value any feedback. Many thanks to ppl for making this such a supportive site for newies. Phil |

Hello Phil and welcome to soft synths,
I think you will be very happy with the synths you listed. As for Absynthe 3, the learning curve may be a bit steep. Check out "Absynth 3 Tutorial DVD" about $45. at Sweetwater.com or audioMIDI.com. I found it very helpfull. DANO10:cool: |
