Hi all, happy to be here on lemmy. Hoping i can get as much info from here as i did with r/reaper. it might take awhile but hopefully we can get somewhat close. I was wondering what some of you guys use for synth plugins in reaper. RIght now im using Surge XT and Hybrid (got it free with my Akai mpk mini). i would like some more to play around with and also really any other plugins you guys recommend to help your workflow and keeping the creative ideas coming. TYIA!

Helm and Vital are both free and really good. I'm also a big fan of dexed, it's a DX7 emulator and you can find a ZIP with 3000 presets.

Vital, Surge XT, Viking VK-1, Odin 2 - all are quite solid.

Have not tried Viking. Thanks for the suggestion! (Vital, Surge XT, and Odin2 are solid)

Vital and Helm are both great VST synths that are either free, donationware or open source. Can’t remember which is what 😅
