Cakewalk Z3. TA Software Synth Reviews Prices For a lot of the bass sounds we just start off with something simple and then mangle it, or use our old favourite Cakewalk Z3. TA plug in. I love it, for anything. For some reason its one of the quickest go to synths for anything I want to do. I just think of a sound, go to that and do it, which I dont really have with anything else. Theres sounds you cant get from Z3. TA and thats why we have analogue synths, but at the same time, if you want something digital and fucked up, they arent really going to do it, except maybe for the Andromeda. If you want something like that its not going to come from a Prophet. I find with Z3. TA, more than anything else, it just fits right in against drums, the way that we do them, and Ive never found anything else that does it so well. Cakewalk Instruments Cakewalk Forums.
