I’d have to say I am in the category of staying away from soft-synths in Renoise. I like taking ‘found sounds’ and using the instrument editor and internal DSP effects to shape the sound.
At the moment I’m recording on a dictaphone - Zoom H2 for me at the end of the month!
Synth1 <-- versitile subtractive
Oatmeal <-- versitile subtractive
DX10 <-- FM
MDA ePiano <-- used in a pinch
Drummatic 3 <-- Damn near all my custom drum loops feature this mother f****er…it’s indisposable!
FX VST’s
Classic Series (all of them…speaking of which…where’s our Filter Delay in ReNoise?!) <-- counts as one to me
MDA Talkbox
MDA Vocoder (sometimes talk box is too human)
MDA Multiband
Buffer Override
