Cheers man, you're a star! My motives were both really! I was wondering if anybody uses any software or every single synth type sound is achieved onto one keyboard. I'll be looking to experiment with it later on, my band at the moment haven't got any material that a synthesiser could fit in with, if that makes sense? The sampling software sounds like the only solution on how people create synth music, it has always fascinated me how little bits of electronic music makes a song sound massive!
