Seems to be loads of threads dealing with Massive, but not many on Zebra. I think it's an amazing synth, brilliantly and intuitively set out and uncluttered.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdW3Z-gm ... re=related - uhe's own tutorial are great, but demand a basic understanding of what you're doing beforehand tbh.
Anyone use Zebra/have any tips?
My main discovery so far is how good the comb filters are for making realistic string and horn sounds. Just brilliant; these filters make evenly spaced harmonics that I think it's difficult to get form a synth in any other way (unless you programme each individual harmonic, which btw you can also do in the spectroblend (?) mode in Zebra.

Re: Zebra (synth)
Just commented to say I highly recommend the zebra synth... It's great!
7 year old BROstep/Trapstep/Chillstep producer from India. Young. Talented. 7 Years Old. Super skilled for age. Signed to NOW22. Biography written in 3rd person on soundcloud OBVI. The next Skrillex. Wait I don't even like him anymore LOL. Super talented. Only 6 years old.
Re: Zebra (synth)
I've used Zebra couple of times and it sounded great 
Re: Zebra (synth)
would be my lonely island synth. 
My Tip: Check out the FMO modules. Modulate the Oscillators waveform that is used as input to the FMO.

Re: Zebra (synth)
You can make some sweet sounding progressive house-like chordal plucks in Zebra. It's pretty much my synth of choice when making that sort of stuff.
Re: Zebra (synth)
Dont forget zebrafy as an effect 
There was a good video posted not long ago which had some good Zebra usage..
I quite like modulating the sync function.

Also thought this from the User handbook was quite handy when I read up on it.
Resolution ((Found in the Osc Edit page at the bottom btw))
This parameter controls the interval (in time) between successive waveform calculations.
This trick ensures that Zebra2 is still very CPU-efficient compared with other synthesizers
that calculate their waveforms in realtime.
The range is from 4 seconds (at 1.00) to less than one millisecond (at 9.00). Theoretically,
high resolution leads to more precise transitions at the cost of higher CPU load.
Low resolution can actually make transitions smoother (intermediates are interpolated),
but can also introduce other unwanted effects (e.g. during rapid pitch-modulation). For
most purpose, the default value of 5.00 is best.
