I've used this and the Z3ta+2 and they are both amazing sounding synths.

They come with awesome presets, so anyone not well versed in synth can still use this extremely easily. It also allows for an amazing amount of flexibility with sound creation.

The UI is very yser friendly, (and the Z3ta+2's is slightly on the better side!) and its easy to learn how to do everything at a glance.

I used this synth when it first came out and got away from it for a while. Back when it first came out it was one of my main go-to vst's. I got the Native Insturments Komplete, and there was so much awesome stuff that I forgot about Z3ta+. Then one day I got turned on to a couple newer CakeWalk synths, Rapture& Demension, which I bought and loved. While on the website I saw Z3ta+ and had a flash back. I bought it again (my old version was on a hard drive lord only knows where) and was completely amazed how fresh this synth still sounds and the power of the sounds and molding capabilities. Without a doubt its worth every penny and once again, it is one of my favorites.

I think this is great value.

The Z3TA, or zeta-synth is probably one of the best waveshaping synthesizers out there on the market, in this price range, at least.

I have used it for a long time now and I am so happy with my purchase.

If you want to make advanced sounds for your musical play, arrangement or song or whatever, I would highly recommend teaching myself how to use this synth touroughly. Because there are a lot of ways to use it, and the features of this synth can be somewhat frustrating for new beginners to handle
But once you get the hang of it, it really is a great synth to use.

Overall impression: Excellent.

I highly recommend it for anyone with the need for more sounds.

Without a doubt, z3ta+ is the best software synth around. For those looking for a sweet analog sound but do not have the money to buy a Waldorf or an Andromeda, z3ta+ is your best choice by far. The amount of parameters on the device is staggering to say the least. You can practically control everything with its own LFO or envelope (You can control LFOs with more LFOs). There is an ungodly amount of oscillators as well, making this the most sonically capable synthesizer available for under $2k. And the best thing, z3ta+ sounds amazing! The only thing that detracts from it is its rather steep learning curve. If you are a sound crafter, expect a couple of days of toying before you are comfortable with it. For me, it was just as hard to grasp as FM synths. (Which some found easy actually)
