video upload by 8dioproductions

"Deep Quintet Strings is the world's first string library with 9-way Round Robin legato, capturing the realism and beauty of these concert instruments at an unprecedented level. Repetition is such a key component of musical phrasing, but playing repeated notes here doesn't mean you'll be hearing the same sample over and over again. Each Quintet note is fresh and organic, with no trace of the robotic "machine gun effect."

Featuring two Violins, one Viola and two Cellos, Deep Quintet Strings allows you to solo, mute or pan between each of the instruments whenever and however you like. You can even move between close and distant mic positions, which gives you complete flexibility to shape this String Quintet and its studio environment.

We stand for only the best in musicianship, and Quintet Strings has all the intricacy and expertise you would expect from us, putting fully dynamic and moving performances at your command. Recorded in a controlled studio environment, Deep Quintet Strings was produced with incredible attention to detail and without compromise.

From nimble notes and nervous vibratos, to long sweetly evolving arcs, we've provided natural and nuanced articulations to convey a wide emotional spectrum. Over the years, we've developed techniques to capture the passion of a full performance in every note, and you can feel it here under your fingertips. Get lost in the intensity of Deep Quintet Strings today.

User Sample Import Now Available for the Sequential Prophet X and XL

Official Prophet X and XL Mapping Utility Overview Published on Dec 17, 2018 8dioproductions

"Link: https://8dio.com/instrument-category/...

The Prophet X and Prophet XL provide two fully independent, stereo sample based instruments per voice (up to 4 in Stack/Split mode). Samples can be manipulated through various onboard modulation, sample stretching, in-depth loop controls, tone shaping, a vast array on board effects and of course a true stereo analog low-pass filter.

With the free 8Dio Mapping Utility you are now able to import your very own samples into the Prophet X or XL.

While 8Dio continues to offer an ever-growing range of Official Add-On Packs, the Mapping Utility is a great way for you to incorporate older recordings into this modern classic.

The workflow has been designed so that you can directly import, assign, adjust mapping and label your own sample-sets, ready for loading in to your Prophet X or XL."

Regarding how much space you have to work with, via Sequential:

"150 GB of factory-installed 16-bit, 48 kHz sampled instruments created by 8Dio. An additional 50 GB of samples can be added by purchasing additional sound libraries. User-sample import is planned for December, 2018."

We wanted to see if it was possible to break the Prophet X by having four people adjust multiple controls in real-time, but we were wrong.

The Prophet X contains hundreds of thousands of custom samples - specifically designed for the synth. This particular patch contains a large-scale symphonic choir singing: "X X X X" in a sustained loop."

"Prophet X Live Demonstration by Troels Folmann. Audio was recorded directly out of the Prophet X.

Visit https://8dio.com/prophet-x/ for more information.

One of the wonders of the Prophet X is that you can play old vintage synths through it - and route them through all the beautiful analog technologies.

Across The Star Lake is a patch from our Official Expansion Series for the Prophet X. We deep-sampled one of the most iconic "wonder child" synths of all time - then fused it together with a tapped tubular bell and two sine waves from the Prophet X.

The demo begins with a washed out ethereal vibe - generated by the Super Plate Reverb maxed out. The verb is lowered a bit - allowing for a more solo like sound. A tiny sequence is triggered and the true analog filters open up - especially on slider 1."

The patch starts with a synthy sounding flute, which is then arpeggiated. The arp pattern then gets sine wave added to it with a bit of saw. The amp release is opened generating a more glissando, slurred type of effect."
