NEW REVIEW - Puts the "fun" in "functional!"

When I purchased my Line 6 KB37 digital interface, I didn't really know what to do with the built-in MIDI keyboard. I didn't even play keyboards at the time! Nevertheless, I was intrigued, and once I had the KB37 hooked up to my home studio, I knew I would need a broad selection of virtual instruments to really put the device through its paces. Enter Sonik Synth 2...which turned out to be the most fun I've ever had using a piece of software! Using Sonik Synth 2 is about as easy as can be; it self-installs and comes with directions for use with all the major recording softwares. The visual interface is clear and intuitive. And the sounds...the sounds are INCREDIBLE. The versatility of this software is practically boundless: with a multitude of carefully-recreated classic keyboards, synthesizers, sythesized instruments, and effects with which you can customize any of the thousands of sounds packaged with the software, you will NEVER find yourself lacking that perfect sound to complement (or even lead!) your latest composition. Don't let the price tag scare you. It's worth every penny, and even after adding the cost of a MIDI controller (as you might have guessed, I'm partial to the KB37), you'll have spent far less than you would have purchasing keyboards capable of doing everything Sonik Synth 2 can do.
