Good quality synth

Does anyone have a decent quality polyphonic synth available, or have a tutorial on how to incorporate plugin synths into max? I've made my own synth, however the quality is extremely basic with mtof~ and additive synthesis, does anyone have anything they've made I could use for personal use?

Hi Jack
have you made your own synth polyphonic yet? An additive synth isn't babycakes, so you must have done some work so far. Synthesis comes in an almost unlimted variety of flavours and there is a similarly unlimited number of Max synths out there in the ether; just gotta know where to look.

"and i doan even know wot I'm talking about....lolz"

Ultimately, synthesis is a matter of taste and widely varied, so if I build you a synth (my synth), you'll want it to do other stuff. Strange request.

Peace
Brendan

ps I'll build you a quick synth if you want...

Hi, do you have m4l? If so, go to ableton's and check this: http://www.ableton.com/pages/max_for_live/classic_synths

Is it possible to get a decent quality piano sound with any of these?
