Yea, Blue. like other RP synths are strong but sounds quite soft, in my opinion.. if you look for soft pads for example they should manage..
They also have kind of signature RP sound init, but its not the problem until you like that sound.. Me myself like albino (mostly number 2) sound alot.. More than Blue. Also i have subbuumbass  its fun to play with too..

My tip still stands, Spire.
Zebra aint always a pretty horse to work with, comes with pretty dull presets.
I use it on every track, but when I start building stuff I tend to use sylenth or Spire.
Then change to zebra if ,or rather when, the sound is lacking(never happened with spire  )
I would go for a out-of-box preset synth that is geared towards EDM.
Discount on Spire now, 30%...buy
Or something compleatly different, like a sampler, rompler, dedicated FMsynthesis...all depends on what u wanna do.
Dont think ALbino, its discontinued and u wont be able to buy it anywhere, besides RP synths are...hmm harsh?
Dont like em at all...
but this is only my opinions...
Zebra covers pretty much everything, so instead, get started on building a good library of sounds instead?

If you want my opinion just stick to your hardware and take maybe 1 vst just to have something more.
I can just recommend you only the usual vsts cause i use only 3-4 of them in daily basis and the rest of my sounds are from my virus ti, nord lead2x and recently nord micro modular.
You have a really decent setup man, just take 1 vst that you like and keep your money to buy some good analog hardware and you will have a great comp to work with.
Now about the vsts is better to try them first cause is not only the sound but a good vst (for you, for me etc) depends also from other things too, like how inspire you, the gui, cpu for some people you know all that stuff. For exaple i really like zebra but i cant work with it, doesnt work for me the whole thing you know. I enjoy to work with massive, reaktor, sylenth etc...
All the vst that already mentioned are really good so its up to you to choose ...into the wild.... |

I thank you all for your Tips.
I made my decision and bought Zebra 2.5 and Omnisphere.
I really liked the Zebra Demo and i read about
Infected Mushroom is using Omnisphere as MainSynth...

I tried:
Rob Papen : Predator, SubBoomBass, Punch and Blade.
I think all of them are great, don´t know if i really need SubBoomBass when i buy Predator...
Cakewalk Z3TA+ 2 - i like it too
UH-E - Zebra 2 - great, but hungry for Systemperformance
Synapse Audio - Dune / i find it real similar to my Virus TI (which is still part of my setup)
Absynth - great.

Diva, Fabfilter twin2, aalto, razor

since you have zebra 2 on your side, you can later go the extra mile and get zebra HZ - that's the one with special features used by Hanz Zimmer with Diva's filters and some other stuff... plus, you'll get Zebra 3 for free if you get that! |

i have used zebra since begining, just when i got a virus i stoped using it mostly as the virus sounded better for the sound i needed and i like more tweaking knobs,now i don t have it anymore after test and a/b i resold it,with massive synthsquad and largo with these 3 synths you can cover lot of the zebra sound but in a higher quality, better sound IMO |
