What are the best synths and plugins for creating melodies? In this episode I do a deep dive into my favorite soft synths, and which ones you should buy depending on where you’re at in your career. I’ll do a guide on this at some point, but just know this: having an amazing plugin won’t make your beats better if you don’t know how to use it. Learn the basics of synthesis and it’ll be a game changer if you want to create your own melodies. You can spend a lot of money on plugins, but they won’t all be a good fit. So if making melodies is important to you this is an episode you’ll want to peep.
