More great sounds and presets this week, including some for the latest Arturia plugin and a bank that sold me a synth! There’s an unwritten rule when voicing a new synth. The very first patch when you turn a synth on is the one that sells it. KORG’s M1 had ‘Universe’ and the Prophecy had ‘Prophetic Steps’. Roland’s D-50 had ‘Fantasia’ and the JD-800 had ‘Millenium’. Heck, even Arturia’s PolyBrute 12 opening patch, cleverly called ‘The Opening’, is a real sonic statement of intent. The theory was that when a customer walked into a music store (remember those?), they would turn a synth on or select Bank A Patch 1 and play. This patch needed to grab them and draw them in. It’s the same as the first sentence in a book. That initial interaction has to sell the synth. Just ask Alesis how important that is. On their ill-fated Fusion workstation, the first 10 patches were pianos. And the very first one wasn’t even that great. Amongst a raft of other things, when the user played it for the first time, all they got was a bog standard piano. It was downhill from there… The post Sounds and Presets: Great Patches That Sell Synths appeared first on gearnews.com. View the full article

This allows Arturia's virtual synths to capture the warmth, character, and imperfections of classic analog gear. More realistic oscillators: TAE® faithfully recreates the sound generation of analog oscillators, including complex Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for creating unique timbres. Detailed filter modeling: TAE® models the specific circuits used in famous analog filters, allowing Arturia's virtual synths to reproduce the filtering characteristics that contribute to the sound of those instruments. Arturia's TAE® technology is designed to give musicians a virtual instrument that sounds and behaves as close as possible to a real analog synthesizer. This lets them create classic sounds or explore new sonic textures without the limitations of traditional digital synthesizers. YouTube Videos -
