Maybe some vsts is my current wish list one/two analog emulations (one for basses mainly and other one mainly not rob papen blue or linplug albino type pads or augur (freewave synth) type pads something what is hard describe also my synthbass taste is hard) and something for acoustic drums. but more important more talent make human feeling drums. becouse i have decent acoustic drums even now. but i must test more free vsts i must choose only few synths becouse its hard rember what synths sounds what. why not hardware? simple reason price and secondly these need more room space. and there is much good sounding new synths second hand have some times many problems needs repairing etc. and often in analogs there is no midi.
ps. i tested waldorf largo its not for me. and i must look more tr-rack soon i can. even i cannot modify patches why? i have odd problem.

For the drums: Don't quantize everything to hell, a few milliseconds behind of after the "beat" makes sounding them more realistic. Further, play a bit with different velocities. Don't make every hihat sound as loud as the one before, and slightly compress the whole drumtrack a bit.

i know these kwantising tips. and i must look compressor even now i cannot rember what freeware compressors are good and what values are good for start. its this good:

ps. looks clear i mean i dont like messy guis

CLASSIC makes INCREDIBLE GOOD VST's

I think Oliver has just created my fantasy item with his Midi MP7 with seperate outs WOW, what a clever guy!

Mind you, A lime-green Waldorf Wave still sounds good..........

What would be the best rack synth for that sort of acoustic sounds ?

Physical Modelling???

Pfff. You don't want that, believe me.
Programming a DX7 is a piece of cake compared to that shit.
If you want just acoustic sounds like Piano, Ac. Guitar etc.. get a decent rompler...

I only have the souvenir of the Korg Prophecy a friend used once, it had a wonderful, beautiful and perfect sax sound. So now I am after that kind of perfectness in acoustic sounds, as the Prophecy can do it, and I thought that was that synthesis Equinoxe was talking about, was I wrong ?
I don't think... the MOSS, which can be found on the Korg Karma for example, seems to be a very good card, and I don't think you need to dig into deep synthesis to have an acoustic sound, nop ?

MOSS board is very good. At least that's what I'm told.

I don't know what type of synthesis is used in the Prophecy to produce this type of sax sound. But the V-Synth XT is also pretty convincing with its AP Synthesis.

I think the Prophecy has an inboard MOSS car, need to check that.

MOSS is just VA, afaik.

i must add some more vas vstis. reason i found there is more differences in these what thinked... and of course something else maybe. but this year i not sure if anything gomes my music equiment. all depends many things.

JPQ, do you use an automatic translator? Try a better one!
What does it mean: "but this year i not sure if anything gomes my music equiment"

( Just kidding)

I was just joking, no offense intended. Sometimes automatic translators create funny sentences.
It's not my language too, I don't even know how many mistakes I do per sentence...
Good luck with your wish list!
