i need a wide array of synths, something similar to omnisphere. anyone have any suggestions of something similar but possibly cheaper?
 
My favorites are:

-Native Instruments Absynth (great for ambient, atmospheric stuff)

-Native Instruments Massive (really verstile and awesome for all sorts of bass)

-Lennar Digital Sylenth1 (extremely Virus-like, really good for hard, aggressive trance stuff. the synth cuts through really well without much EQing)

-Camel Audio Alchemy (really impressive synth, tons of awesome soundbanks out there for it... can do both absynth and massive type sounds)

If you aren't great at creating synth sounds from scratch (I'm not), check out the pro soundbanks that are available for Absynth, Massive, and Alchemy at http://www.camelaudio.com/Sound-Sample-Libraries.php A lot of those soundbanks are REALLY good and blow away the stock presets... plus, there's tons of them. So, you probably will never get caught using a particular preset in a production (not that that's a big deal or anything)...
