Have you tried Bristol? It's got some really nice sounds, but just as
with a HW analog synth, you need to set up your sounds yourself. You
are presented with a graphic of the actual synth model you pick, and you
twist knobs from there. I use the Prophet 5, ARP 2600, and Hammond B3
instruments in it a lot.
