i was wondering why vst's that are created for windows cannot run on a mac. does this have anything to do with the processors? i've noticed that in linux systems people can use WINE to use windows vst's in a linux environment. for the most part i'm happy with the instruments available for mac. but being kinda poor, i'm very attracted to free plugins (which seem to be more available for windows) such as KarmaFX. i guess my other question would be is there a user-friendly, high-quality, free modular synth comparable to the KarmaFX created for mac?

There are plenty of good freeware plugs & synths for the Mac.....here's a good place to start, though you may have already seen this site:http://www.dontcrack.com/freeware/software.php/id/7037/audio/Plug-ins/
www.smartelectronix.com very, very cool site & many of the guys at smartelectronix also make plugs for Cycling 74 (pluggo & Max/MSP). |
