Two synths I’m looking forward to: Synthmaster 3 and Zebra 3.
Which all work in FM8 and usually sound better there too. Not to mention the horrible interface on Dexed.
The answer to the question givemeenoughrope asked is 'No'. There isn't really a 'better' FM synth than what you have. Just different ones. I love Dexed too, but it's certainly not 'better' than FM8.
It took me a while (several months) to fall in love with Omni2 but now I wouldn't be without it.I never cared much for Omni and sold it after six weeks. But I'd already studied and worked with Waldorf, Uhe, PPG, and NI synths for years by that time.
For somebody looking for just one synth, they could probably flip a three-sided coin over Omnisphere, Diva, or Zebra.HZ imo.
And Zebra 3 is looking a bit less likely every year. Not that I care, I love it how it is, honestly.
Well alrighty then.Which all work in FM8 and usually sound better there too. Not to mention the horrible interface on Dexed.

My Go-To synth would be Reaktor, I think.
