I have spent many 100 dollars on software synths made by u-he (their

people out there making (and selling... ) great patches. These are not
hyped C64 sounds. They are humane, real.
Here's a short survey on the topic:

A remark about question one:
"Are you willing to pay for the 3.0.0 UI rewrite when it is released?"
I truthfully and unashamedly answered this (the way it is worded) with
"No". I never buy software when it is new and only when I have the
opportunity to test it (or a demo version which isn't too crippled)
with my rig for a sufficient amount of time. Then again, I prefer hardware synths anyway and bought
only a couple
of synth plugins (for windows), which I seldom use.
I also did. But then I was very impressed by the u-he synths. Such
feeling.
And I have no problem saying this here because it should stimulating
for the open source community. Why is it that when deep sound
algorithms are found, that it goes closed source ? I think it is
because of the found value in expression. Human expression. Although
yes, to make Bazille make farting sounds is (hyperventilating) funny,
there is a universe of expression beyond that.
Not sure the above make sense :)
