The real SDK, has a lot more programming skills involved, even if it's all graphical. And you can make something simple fairly easily, or get as low-level and deep as you can, piece by piece, or script on the host machine, or ....
bribe guys that will create something simple for you.
I have several live valuable tools that don't exist in Native, buthen again I don't use many Native apps. I believe Native's strengths are for Audio and MIDI sequencing......it excells at that. What's odd is I use 3 synths, a few effects a hardware compressor and PCM70 Reverb for obvious reasons, and that's it.
Many of my friends have synths and effects that take up pages.
I understand the need for a specific synth, and Modular IV provides me with every type of synthesis known to me, and I can always call up a patch, if it's something I don't have I go to the sites and check, but in all honesty Assafs Synthschool videos were the best tips I ever learned, except those from Pianists I studied with or got my ass kicked by.
