Oberheim OB-X8 - Sound Bank '79

video upload by Polydata

"Drawing from the earliest days of polyphonic synthesizers, Sound Bank ‘79 for the Oberheim OB-X8 finds its inspiration in synthesizer music found in documentaries and library music from the late 70’s and early 80’s.

A sound bank comprising 64 patches (8 full groups) for instant inspiration, this set was painstakingly crafted to bring the absolute best out of this fantastic instrument. I was blown away by the quality of tone in this synthesizer, and the sounds speak for themselves.

Recorded completely dry with no effects or processing.

Digital Sounds on a 1981 Prophet-5 Rev 3

video upload by Polydata

"A quick video showing some 'digital' type patches I made on my Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 rev 3.2. Obviously a digital synth has a hugely expanded sonic palette from an analog one, but it was fun to see how much some of these patches can evoke and emulate that kind of early digital sound."

Softube Model 80 - Sound Bank '79

video upload by Polydata

"Drawing from the earliest days of polyphonic synthesizers, Sound Bank ‘79 for Softube Model 80 finds its inspiration in synthesizer music found in documentaries and library music from the late 70’s and early 80’s.

A bank comprising 30 patches for instant inspiration. The goal was to squeeze as much vintage analog juice out of this plug-in as possible, primarily working within the constraints of the original Sequential Circuits Prophet-5. Part of the magic of the Prophet-5 design was it's clear workflow, enabling you to get a wide array of sounds quickly. I'm happy to say that Softube have stayed faithful to this simplicity that has helped this instrument to endure all these years.

Sound Bank '79 is a series of vintage tones for different synths and plug-ins, so look out for future releases. Recorded completely dry with no external effects or processing.

Arturia Prophet VS - Summer School '86 Sound Bank

video upload by Polydata

"You really blew it this time. You failed Chemistry. Now you have no option: you have to go to summer school. A hot walk every morning and a hotter walk home. Emptier hallways, quieter lunchroom and no chance of sleeping in. But one afternoon you go to the local music shop and get to try out a new instrument: The Sequential Prophet VS. All-digital oscillators with vector cross-fading. You've never heard anything like it, and it's sound seems to keep echoing in your head all summer...

A bank of 30 patches showcasing the unique beauty of this instrument's design and sound, while still focusing on warmth and musicality, and providing a complexity not found in other Polydata sound banks. The sound that will always take you back to that summer.

** Note: This is for the original "Prophet V3" plug-in, not the newer "Prophet VS V" plug-in that comes with V Collection 9. Please ensure you have access to the correct plug-in before purchasing. **

After payment, you will receive the file in your email within 24 hours. Recorded with no external processing - what you hear is all from the plug-in.

Prophet '08 Bi-timbral Sound Bank

video upload by Polydata

"An exploration of stacked patches with the Dave Smith Instruments Prophet '08 (or REV 2). I've often found bi-timbral patches cheesy, uninspiring, or just not useful. I sought to create this bank to show how powerful and beautiful patch stacking can be. It needs to be approached with care - not just slapping two sounds together, but carefully tailoring each sound to complement each other and blend into a single unit that is greater than the sum of it's parts. Nuance is key.

30 carefully designed bi-timbral patches for instant inspiration. Recorded completely dry with no external effects or processing. Note: these patches will also work with the Dave Smith Instruments / Sequential Rev-2.

A fantastic synthesizer which is a widely-loved classic for a reason.

Arturia Prophet - V - Sound Bank '79

video upload by Polydata

"Drawing from the earliest days of polyphonic synthesizers, Sound Bank ‘79 for the Arturia Prophet-V finds its inspiration in synthesizer music found in documentaries and library music from the late 70’s and early 80’s.

A bank comprising 40 patches for instant inspiration. The goal was to squeeze as much vintage analog juice out of this plug-in as possible, primarily working within the constraints of the original Sequential Circuits Prophet-5. I own a real Prophet-5 rev 3.2 and still love the analog mojo of this plug-in.

Note: This is for the Arturia 'Prophet V' (V3) plug-in and not more recent 'Prophet-5 V' plug-in which has a different synth engine. Also: please note that most of these patches are saved with "Reset" as the Play Mode at the bottom of the plug-in window, but you may want to change it to 'Circ' based on your needs.

Sound Bank '79 is a series of vintage tones for different synths and plug-ins, so look out for future releases. Recorded completely dry with no external effects or processing.

(One of the patches in the bank - "Pinnacle" - is missing from this video demo, so this is 39 of the 40 sounds)"

Sequential Take 5 - FM Tones Sound Bank

video upload by Polydata

"A sound pack of 2 banks totaling 32 patches with sequences and effects for the awesome sounding Take 5 analog synthesizer. All of these patches use Oscillator 2 as an audio rate modulation source. FM on this synth is a big part of what makes it exciting for me and I hope these patches help you see it in a fresh way.

Link:
polydata.bigcartel.com

After payment, you will receive the SysEx file in your email within 24 hours. Sounds load into Banks 3 & 4 by default. Recorded completely dry with no external effects or processing. All patches have been tuned to compensate the natural pitch drift of exponential FM, other than the obviously atonal percussion sounds.
