Omnisphere has been the HipHop community's favorite synthesizer for years now. With its excessive synthesis, sampling and layering capabilities, it offers lots of inspiration to musicians. The ever-growing library of first- as well as third-party expansions only adds to Omnisphere's versatility. Like Metro Boomin put it: "I mean, everybody uses Omnisphere".
Serato's innovative sampler plugin was originally created for DJs, but it's capabilities from time stretching to stem seperation are also a great fit for anybody looking to incorporate samples into their music. Here's what Metro Boomin had to say about Serato Sample: "The technology that Serato got to be able to shift and stretch sh*t and it still sound just as good, I never heard nothing else do that".
“I f*ck with Kontakt a lot, it’s all kinds of sh*t in there”. This Metro quote describes Native Instrument's Kontakt pretty accurately. While it is a single plugin for you to open up in your DAW, the possibilities are endless. Thousands of software instruments from various developers have been designed specifically to run inside Kontakt, ranging from nerdy synth emulations to incredibly detailled orchestra libraries. Kontakt undeniably is a must-have in any music producer's toolkit.
While less popular than Omnisphere, Spectrasonics' Trillian doesn't fall behind it's big brother when it comes to quality. “I use Trillian a lot for the bass”, Metro says, and that's exactly what it's for!
Stylus RMX is probably the least well-known plugin made by Spectrasonics. Metro seems to enjoy it, though: "Everybody overlooks it, but it's got a lot of fire percussions and movements I just mix in and they add a lot of bounce".
