I've spent *years* now *studying* *ZynAddSubFX*, so I know it pretty well.
Looking at TAL Noizemaker quickly makes me want to say that you can't even
compare these synths - however I might be greatly wrong. TAL's capabilities
look to me more like Synth1 VST. Zyn is capable of making extremely complex
sounds layering virtualy unlimited amount of voices...
TAL for sure has better-looking GUI than Zyn, though ;)
If you want to hear what ZASFX can do, put my latest album on the deck -
the instrumental layer is 100% ZynAddSubFX inside LMMS (yes, drums too).
With some additonal plugins in the mixer but that for mixing mostly.
