1. Massive, Lounge Lizard, Minimoog V, B4 II, I probably use Massive the most of all of them, but it's been a steep learning curve to figure massive out, and I'm still learning alot about it everytime a bring it up
2. I don't use monitors, and I've been told by a friend in the industry not to even worry about monitors, because most dudes getting in don't even use em, more or less, just use what works for you, and just study how to translate a better mix from what you use to something that'll bump in a car, because at the end of the day thats all you're musics gonna be played in besides the stage every now and then, because honestly with the right engineer, it really won't matter how well you mix it, because they'll do it for you 1000X better...atleast major label engineers will

Nice, you use Lounge Lizard too ... lol, I still use the demo; it's an amazing electric piano emulation, but I cannot justify paying how much they charge for it. Still, one of the cornerstones of my, um, "studio".
Massive is just too much for me ... I love a giant synth lead, but if I'm creating a synth sound usually I'll just go to the very capable 3xOsc, or if that isn't enough, then like Vanguard, Firebird, Albino, or any number of other subtractive VST's.
That's why I always figured you used monitors; I figured you didn't have any engineers mastering your sound, and you did it all yourself. But yeah, lol, I pretty much entirely mix my music based around whether or not it sounds good in my truck.
