It might be cumbersome to save each built sound as a board, and use snapshots to swap between them. Now I’m not exactly sure how you’d be able to create or save the “synth presets” that you built, since the oscillators control your timbre, and envelopes control your sound (pluck, pad, bass, lead, etc…) so those would be the primary things that would need to be saved.

You can also patch that stereo cross fade out into your effects chain and then to your device output. Then I’d recommend putting a stereo cross fade plug-in at the end of the chain, and patch your dry signal and synth output into it to control your wet/dry mix on the output. This should allow you to build your own personal synth sounds with a bit of envelope manipulation. But I also use a hydrasynth that utilizes 2 filters in my audio path, with 17 filter types to choose from. This allows you to control the “brightness” of the sound.Ī single HP/BP/LP filter would be enough, and I know that plug-in exists.

You can also apply an envelope or LFO on the VCA for volume control and swells.Īnd finally, one or two filters (High pass/Band pass/Low pass) with either a 6,12, or 24 dB filter. If there is a VCA (voltage controlled amplifier) plug-in, put this in before the filter. But it will chew up the CPU most likely.Ī lot of people apply LFO’s to the filter for automated filter sweeps, or to the VCO’s themselves for timbre change, etc…

The more LFO’s the more complex you can make your sounds. You will most likely want a modulator like an LFO for automation. Slow attack, long release for pad sounds etc… ADSR envelopes are preferable for certain sounds, and is what I recommend to use. These help shape the way the sound behaves. This raw VCO signal will need a few more plugins.Ī mixer for the VCO’s if you are working with voices greater than monophonic.Įnvelopes that can do Attack/Release, or Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release. What I think might work, is finding a plug-in that listens to the incoming audio note, and converts it into a midi message.įrom that midi converter, you should be able to patch it into a separate midi chain that consists of however many VCO’s (voltage controlled oscillator) you need (monophonic, duophonic, paraphonic, or polyphonic) and what wave shape (Saw, Sine, Pulse, triangle, waveform, etc…) while being mindful of cpu usage. My studio is ripped apart right now because I had to convert it into an office space while I have been in driving school (passed all online stuff, tomorrow I head south to attend on road classes) so I can’t look at my plug-in options.Īs a synthesizer player, sound design is a big deal, but it takes a lot of work.Ī mapping in my brain that I have to potentially accomplish what you would like to do would take considerable work. Combining short and long notes, and some delay, you can play wonderfully dreamy songs on this.So I’m looking at the SY-1 and it does seem simple to use for guitar. Holding a note adds a soft pad to the background, enabling you to accompany yourself. Playing short notes will create soft rhythmic tones that change timbre with different playing velocity. If it sounds weird then I probably typed something wrongĪ dreamy layered patch.

Mostly this is good for some gnarly lead solo stuff and not so good for pads or anything on the low endĪll the select 2 stuff is identical to the init because I just wanted simple vibrato on the mod wheel. ***Or change to 0 for less width/detuningĪgain most of the patch bits don’t matter, neither does the mod fx or delay much, experiment with these at your desire. **Or change to about 32 for more focus on higher pitch

*Or change to about 6 for portamento on some songs like Black Omen Patch settings can be whatever you want, mine all affect the LFOs and I don’t use it for any of the songs with this patch so I wouldn’t worry about it All were created from INIT patches and made to emulate various synths (the first is an emulation of a Poly-800 II patch I created) Here are 3 patches used by my synthwave band REAPERS.
