Navie D. It’s no worries you haven’t used it, it’s just a synthesizer at the end of the day, and the default presets aren’t that good but It def shines in sound design and presets like I said because so many people have affordable kits like Ave mcree, Based Gutta, brobeatz, etc.. after a couple days of purchasing I’m loving it. Serum can probably do the trick better with sound design, but the amount of 3rd party preset banks with modern sounds for trap instead of EDM is nice. Up to you, I know you already have plenty VSTS and can sound design using FL stock plugins. Amazing toy for sure though

Sytrus and Serum is the best for me. SeamlessR. Have u ever heard that guy? Sytrus is the most powerfull if u mastering this plugin. U can make EVERYTHING what u want. And you can use dx7(?) presets. And the low cpu usage... Serum: You can use as a synth. U can drop a sample on it and create a very rich sounding vocal chop. You can also make drums. Aaand as u said, this is also an fx plugin. You can use these for beat making as well. But yupp. Better for electronic music. They are S+ for me. But this video is good. I leave a like also, not just my opinion.✋

Thanks for this. Good information from a unique perspective. I wonder if you've ever looked at Falcon. I have Omnisphere, and love it, but somehow Falcon has become my go-to. Definitely more "sample-friendly"' than Omnisphere, and, I think, more beat friendly as well. Perhaps not as user-friendly as Omnisphere. Probably on sale more often. If Omnisphere is in the "S" tier, I'm thinking you might put Falcon there as well.

Absolutely wrong. The 3x Osc does basic sine wave 100% right. What you're referring to is artifact called "aliasing", that chirping effect when you are using other waveforms than sine in this synth, and it's very noticeable when playing high notes. It's removed after rendering a song or pattern. Aliasing is encoded into 3x Osc itself in order for it to use less CPU. Recent update of FL actually includes an HQ button in 3x Osc, which enables "anti-aliasing in real-time" option thus getting rid of these weird artifacts.

@@nickcollins9893 The point was just that it wasn't clean and I didn't know why, since other plugins didn't have noticeable aliasing. How computationally hard is a sine wave? Lol. It's good they have a HQ button now to turn off aliasing, but I'd rather use Sytrus or Harmor anyways. Sytrus is nice, still need to try out designing sounds in Harmor more.

@@user-lt2rw5nr9s 3x Osc doesn't have any aliasing when you dealing with sine waves, since it's just one harmonic. If something is happening in high frequencies when you using sine wave, it is most likely unaudible and shouldn't bother you that much :D Sytrus is capable of having aliased sound too, if you turn off oversampling. Also, I feel like 3x Osc wasn't exactly the synth that Image-Line paid much attention to, maybe since 2003 (talking about computationally hard waveforms). I could be wrong :) It was introduced in Fruity Loops 3 in 2000, and only got one update somewhere in mid 2000-s (phase randomness knob), and then complete UI overhaul with introduction of FL Studio 12.

Harmor and Sytrus, yeah, their interface can be slightly confusing. People like Seamless or SJT would probably disagree with previous statement :D Sylenth is actually awesome, and it's geared towards any music you like, and you mistakenly showed the version 2.0. UI was updated in version 3, and it looks just like in small picture from your tier list. Less contrast, less brighter colors, pleasantly looking font. And, by the way! Just because poor little 3x Osc doesn't have any built-in effects, thousand of presets that you could spend whole century clicking through, doesn't make it a f-tier synth. The only limit with this synth is your imagination. But again, maybe it's truly a goddamn kryptonite for beatmakers.

I know this video is 2 years old, but my addition would be: Phase Plant (S) (because you can do everything with it, only thing they could add would be other stretch modes for sampler then repitch), Vital (A), almost same as Serum but its goddamn free and more possibilities for modulation and better visual feedback but very synthetic sounds, Massive X (C) many presets but pretty steep price and learnng curve i would say, the routing is kind of annoying as well, then of course Kontakt (S) why isnt it on the list?

@@generalq8933 You not wrong, but Nexus had it's time in the spotlight back in the early 2010's because it's a good plugin with solid sounds and still has better sounds in my opinion. But opinions are buttholes so in the end I guess this convo doesn't't really matter.

Consider adding Nexus to your "plugins to get" list. The only thing with Kontakt is some of the higher quality libraries are expensive and and large. They can range from a few mb to a few gb. If you don't have a large amount of disk space you might be trouble.

I’ve been watching quite a bunch of videos of yours and I find them pretty much on point but this one is definitely the worst, specially considering your approach to beat making. This video is really much about factory presets and library navigation. If You put this video under this perspective it totally makes sense. But this time you are mixing apple, oranges, cars and airplanes. And I find that noobs get really confusing ideas about what to buy from contents like this: how can you compare 15 yo SYNTHS such as massive and absynth to a modern rompler such as omnisphere(which is not but here it has been used just as that), you didn’t mention nexus and so on. Long story short: I find your other contents: on point, well explained, with a nice approach and everything good I consider in this kind of video productions but this one felt to me as a cheeky click bait even though a slightly different title could have made such a big difference to me. Keep up with the good work! Cheers from Italy. No hard feelings at all, actually it is the opposite
