Steinberg Hypersonic is one good one. I'm also interested in what others have to say, also a softsynth with fat hip hop leads and synth sounds.

Hi! I have a question about the softsynths for music production of trance and techno. It doesn't matter whether the instruments will be for free or I will have to pay for them. Is it possible to load the banks to z3ta plus without any assistance? Does anyone of you have tested the refx nexus, and is there access to the functions of changing banks and patches in DirectiXer?
