Free Acid/303-Style presets for Spire, Serum, Repro, Pigments, Omnisphere

video upload by Anton Anru

"Welcome to the collection of 50 Free Acid/303-Style presets for popular VST-plugins: U-He Repro, Xfer Serum, Arturia Pigments, Reveal Sound Spire, Spectrasonics Omnisphere (10 presets for each synth).

The presets are made for 303-Style MIDI Patterns, but you can use them for any purposes.

The collection includes classical 303-Style tones, as well as more complex sounds that can't be recreated on the original 303-machine - they use several oscillators, different types of filters, LFOs, unison, effects and so on.

The timbres are suitable for many genres: Acid, Rave, Techno, House, Trance, Downtempo, Lounge, Breakbeat, Jungle, Hardcore, Industrial, Dub, Electro and others.

ModWheel is set for all presets. It makes the sound brighter, wider, longer. The presets are velocity-sensitive. For the correct result, use velocity value 65 for regular notes, and 127 - for accents.

All timbres are monophonic. Envelopes and slide are in Legato Mode.

Make sure you are using the latest versions of the plugins.
Installation instructions for each synth are inside the pack.

The pack is free, but any donation is appreciated.

Demo ONE - Synth-Hop Novation Circuit Tracks Pack - LDM Designs

video upload by Isotonik Studios

"Although primarily a genre built around the use of vintage samples of real instruments, funk and jazz, hiphop and the wider hiphop-inspired genres have incorporated many synth sounds and of course sampled classic synths. The west coast sounds of Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg drew from the synth sounds of P Funk. Modern expressions of hiphop, such as the LA beatscene which includes Flying Lotus, MNDSGN and Nosaj Thing have fully incorporated synths into their sound, inspired by electronica as much as classic hiphop.

This pack was inspired by such artists, as well as UK hiphop, triphop and leftfield electronic producers as varied as DJ Shadow, Wagon Christ, Dabrye & Boards of Canada.

64 patches range from funk synth basses, lofi dusty keys, woozy synths, glitchy leads and tinkling percussion. The Macros mostly follow the suggested functions of the Circuit Tracks to facilitate an intuitive workflow.

The 64 samples are nearly all drum sounds, featuring many minimally processed funk hits, as well as synthesized hits made with Serum and also given some lofi processing. All of the synthesized hits are pitched to G, including the obligatory 808 bass. The drums can always be processed even more on the actual Circuit using the repitching, distortion and filtering, which is demonstrated in the included Projects/Sessions.

Included are 16 demo Projects/Sessions which include reconstructions and mashups of tracks which provided inspiration for the patch creation, as well as some original ideas.

Ziqal Dimension wavetable VCO interface overview

video upload by John Schussler

"My Dimension wavetable VCO just arrived today from Ziqal and I'm trying to figure out its interface. (There's no manual yet, they say it's in the works.) It's almost completely intuitive, except for a couple issues, so I don't feel like I'm lost without a manual, which is good.

I'm not spending a bunch of time going through all the wavetables. It has an SD card with lots of tables on it, and there are 6400 you can scan through if you're so inclined.

I'm not inclined right at the moment. Just some samples for now.

"The Dimension wavetable engine uses 2048 samples * 256 waveforms wavetables to bring high definition tables to your system. Its wavetables reproduction precision will fit any of your audio textures needs.

Dimension is compatible with the Serum wavetables format and feature an intuitive and fast file browser, allowing you to explore thousand of already available wavetables. Just drop your favorites wavetables on its SD card and instantaneously start exploring new sonic territory.

24 voices
Dimension is capable of playing not less than 24 voices simultaneously within 10HP tanks to its embeed modern high end audio processor. Depending on the active patch mode voices can be assigned to chords polyphony or unison engine

Polyphonic stereo, Dimension, Dual or LFO modes
The Classic mode provides 4 oscillator voices panned over stereo outputs. You can control theses voices in CV programing chords or with the internal notes scaler and or feeding midi into the module.


The Dimension mode allows the waveform to be morphed across the entire module memory in an X Y fashion. As the module allows to store internally 25 wavetables of each maximum 256 waveforms. This mode allows wavetable morphing over (25*256) 6400 different waveforms.

Dual / LFO mode

Dual mode output two different wavetables on each output. LFO mode operates as the dual mode, except that the frequency range of output two is set in the subsonic range.


In any mode, voices can also be multiplied 6 times and detuned to play massive 6 voice unison. When using 4 voices it brings not less than a total of 24 voices out of your oscillator."

Demo - Drum & Bass Foundations by Techtronix - Novation Circuit Tracks Pack

video upload by Isotonik Studios

"Drum and Bass is a genre thats here to stay, There has been a massive progression and shift over the years in the styles. From the early days of jungle and then stepping up to producers like Calyx Teebee, and Goldie, through to our modern day. Despite this, two things have remained.

The drive created by the bass, and the energy conjoured by the hard hitting drums, the combination of those two in tandem is what will always define dnb as one of the people's favourite genre.

This pack fits in that era between early Drum & Bass and modern, where there is still plenty of sub bass and thick reeces, but with a modern punchy take on drums and fx

All drums have been synthesized using Xfer Serum and have specifically been made to be on the right key and frequency range, to get the job done without pitching.

Rich pads, heavily modulated monster bass, and tough drums is where this packs aims to be.

Made up of, 10 sessions for the Circuit Tracks, 64 patches, 64 samples.

DRUM & BASS FOUNDATIONS - PATCHES

32 dnb style bass patches - including stabs reece's and virtual riot esque warps

Sonicware Liven Bass & Beats Prototype Demo 1 - Big Wubs

video upload by ChrisLody

"So here's my first quick jam made using the new Sonicware Bass & Beats. This arrived on Tuesday and I've been tasked with creating wavetables and preset sounds for it which is what you're hearing here. There's a lot to learn that I have yet to look at, plus from what I can gather the text on the silk isn't final yet so I think this is a prototype.

The monophonic bass engine of the B&B features dual wavetable oscillators, a sub oscillator and a noise source. The structure is semi modular with velocity, 2 assignable knobs, 2 LFO's and 3 ADSR envelopes that can be freely assigned. It's possible to have LFO's affect each others speed for example. User wavetable import is possible and it uses the same format as the Serum VST, 256x 2048 samples so nice and high in quality. There is a filter with low-pass, high-pass and band-pass modes that has overdrive, plus waveshaping modes which can all be controlled using the modulation sources.

I'm sure the drum part of the B&B is also very powerful but I've not had much chance to learn how to use that yet 😄"

Emu Orbit 9090 V2 - the sound of

video by Riktenstein

Controlled by a Waldorf Zarenbourg no less.

"The sound demo for the Emu Orbit 9090 V2 rompler sound synth.

Released in 1996, the Emu Orbit 9090 V2 was a sample based rompler synth. Heavily aim at the Dance music producer. It's editing of sounds is slow and with software plug-ins like Serum and Pigment it's now hard for this sound module to take centre stage. This is reflected in it's cheap second hand price."

New Korg modwave - an edgy, expansive, and easy to use wavetable synthesizer based on the DW-8000

Korg

"In 1985, Korg's DW-8000 combined digital wavetables with rich analog filters to give users sounds which were impossible to create with analog oscillators. It's still a cult favorite today.

modwave builds upon the DW legacy with incredibly deep wavetable oscillators, gorgeous filters, first-ever Kaoss Physics-based modulation, unmatched polyphony, comprehensive pattern sequencing, and immediately satisfying hands-on control to deliver unique, powerful, and easily customizable sounds and phrases."

KORG · modwave Demo Sounds

Update: pics and details via KORG:

"Synthesis powerhouse with distinctive wavetable timbres, Kaoss Physics, and Motion Sequencing 2.0.

In 1985, Korg's DW-8000 combined digital wavetables with rich analog filters to give users sounds which were impossible to create with analog oscillators. It's still a cult favorite today.

modwave builds on the DW legacy and transforms it into a modern monster synth, featuring incredibly deep wavetable oscillators, gorgeous filters, wildly flexible modulation, unmatched polyphony, comprehensive pattern sequencing, and immediately satisfying hands-on control to deliver unique, powerful, and easily customizable sounds and phrases.

modwave also introduces two unique new tools for creating dynamic motion: Kaoss Physics and Motion Sequencing 2.0. Kaoss Physics combines an x/y Kaoss pad with modulatable game physics to create a responsive, interactive controller that is—besides being powerful— a lot of fun to explore. Motion Sequencing 2.0 brings the organic, continuously evolving patterns of the wavestate's Wave Sequencing 2.0 into the world of motion sequencing, including multiple lanes and real-time recording to help you create complex and evolving phrases that other step sequeners cannot.

Like Wave Sequencing 2.0 (wavestate) and altered FM (opsix), modwave’s evolved wavetable synthesis delivers its own brand of completely unique sounds and a knob-per-function layout that makes customizing those sounds fast and easy. To start, there are hundreds of preset sounds empowered by this new architecture, organized by front-panel category buttons, and all instantly customizable via the four Modulation Knobs. modwave's distinctive wavetable timbres start with aggressive basses & leads, and lush ambient pads which will add a new dimension to your tracks. But that is just the start. Those who want to dig deeper will find an endless source of discovery; you'll be finding new things in this synth for a long, long time because of the unique synth architecture. Once you have started finding new sounds - aave as many as you like; there's room for thousands more."
