The BEST VST ROMplers | Comparisons & Demo’s
ROMpler keyboards become popular in the 90s as samples and synth sounds could be delivered with high quality and many presets at lower cost than true synths. These were players with only slight capabilities to tweak the sound with FXs, some modulation and parameters. Read Only Memory (ROM) meant you couldn’t record your own samples or design your own synth sounds from scratch. But virtual ROMplers still have an important role, as you can usually get them for FREE or at lower cost and still use many presets from popular vendors.
