50 Tempera Custom Patches [Bank 1] by synth_nyc

You can find hi-res demos on https://synthnyc.com

Some info on the set via synth_nyc

"As with my Kaivo custom patches, this sound bank only uses Factory Samples.

The Tempera has several workflows. I’m focussing my sound bank on having the Tempera sound generated by an external keyboard (Emitters are configured in ’Toggle’ placement mode), and also on having tonal patches.

The way Beetlecrab Audio implements granular synthesis is very interesting IMHO, it really shines in generating controlled random sounds (!), I mean it creates easily a rhythm or pattern if you’d like in the patch, but with random changes. A bit like a random ARP would do on a chord. The result is very musical IMHO. If you add that this randomness can be placed in the stereo field (L/R or Center/Middle) with some Jitter (or not). And that you can scan tracks vertically (Y) and / or several tracks horizontally (X) - up to 8 with up to 4 Emitters; the possibilities are endless.

Many of my patches scan tracks vertically (Y) only as I found that already creates a great novel soundscape, but several patches scan several tracks horizontally as well (that’s the ones with a XY suffix in the Patch Name)

It would be possible to create some of this controlled randomness if you were to use Korg Wave Sequencing 2.0 and add some randomness to each Step using the Probability parameter, but you would not be able to go as far as the Tempera.

The most interesting results IMHO are with samples that present spectral changes (across time) or temporal changes (gap, etc…) across time and with a fixed pitch. Though I’ve used some samples that had pitch changes (the FX is also interesting) and no (clear) pitch.

Lastly, unlike my experience with other synthesis where I can hear in my head the sound result before adjusting a parameter, with Beetlecrab Audio implementation of Granular Synthesis, sometimes the result is unpredictable (at least to me) but often musical."

Waldorf Releases The Blue Journey Soundest by synth_nyc

You can find additional demos at SYNTH_NYC and SoundCloud. You can find the soundset on Waldorf's site here.



"The Blue Journey 128 sound set for the M synthesizer explores the technology from the past that made PPG and Waldorf Music machines historical landmarks. It highlights firmware version 1.07 and 1.08 that brought a slew of functionally to the M; almost giving it new synthesizer engines without sacrificing user experience!

The first 32 [1-32] patches are using MW1 mode only with PPG Transitions (short 22kHz / 16bit mono samples) exclusively; PPG Transitions reading feature was introduced in firmware version 1.07. Those patches have the Transition number + Slot number in the M Patch Name, so it’s easy to rebuild (e.g. T143 S3 Low Rez Vox is the patch name of patch number 1 on the M, using PPG Transition T143 in M Slot 3).

The required samples are from the original PPG library and have already been renamed for use in the M. A detailed overview and instructions for loading the samples into there M are available in the downloads after purchase.

https://www.hermannseib.com/english/synths/ppg/wtbwave.htm#sorted

http://ppg.synth.net/waveterm/wt_lib.shtml

The next 32 [33-64] patches are exploring MW2 mode new features: new digital filters were introduced in firmware version 1.08.

Those patches have the M digital filter type in the M Patch Name (and in the file name on synth_nyc website and bandcamp) (e.g. B Stop Marbles is the patch name of patch number 36 on the M, using the B Stop filter), so it’s easy to know which filter was used and showcasing the M firmware 1.08 capability.

The last 64 [65-128] patches are a mix of MW1 and MW2 modes but not using any Transitions.

In The Blue Journey sound set, you will find many vocal textures, vocal plucks, vocal basses and vocal pads because this is probably where the M excels; where it’s ‘magic’ and uniqueness are more present. There are also many other leads, basses, and even VA patches; and of course many wavetable scanning patches, that can make it to any retro or modern production.

I hope you’ll enjoy The Blue Journey, as much as I enjoyed programming the patches."

How does the PRO-800 sound?
I’m grateful to have owned a SCI Prophet-5 Rev2, a Wine Country Sequential Prophet-5 Rev 3.3 and currently own a SCI Prophet-10 module; the PRO-800 sounds very vintage and close enough to its ancestors IMHO."

Waldorf Music Releases synth_nyc Pulse 2 [Bank 1]

via Waldorf

"synth_nyc has been working with synthesizers since the mid-80s. He gained experience with MKS50, CS80, Jupiter-8, Waldorf Wave, PPG, Prophet VS and many more. His passion for synthesizers has remained to this day and he currently provides soundsets for 'gsmusic' and, among others, an OB-E set for 'gforcesoftware'.

The soundset for Pulse2 contains 51 impressive and versatile sounds from all musical genres. Many synth classics are represented and inspire creative excursions into in different genres."

via synth_nyc

"You can listen to it in high resolution 24bit 96kHz PCM WAV masters - FLAC compressed on synth_nyc site (optimized for Chrome on MacOS and Windows).

Or in low resolution on Waldorf Music site.

Or in low resolution on synth_nyc bandcamp." [embeded above]

synth_nyc 24bit 96kHz synthesizer custom patches demos and continuous audio playback

via synth_nyc

"synth_nyc has launched a new website where visitors can experience 24bit 96kHz synthesizers demos of custom patches, with continuous audio playback while navigating on the site.

This could be the first site to offer such user experience.

FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec)
The audio content on the Internet is usually using lossy audio codecs (AAC, Vorbis, etc…) with about 100Kb/s, and may not necessarily showcase the full sonic quality of the synthesizers we are getting today. synth_nyc site is featuring a lossless audio codec; FLAC.

You will be getting 3Mb/s audio streams.

How does it work? The principle is simple, audio demos masters (24bit 96kHz PCM / WAV) are FLAC compressed (encoded) on the web server; and decompressed (decoded) ‘real-time’ by your Internet browser client while streamed. There is also a network of web servers distributed worldwide so the content is always close to your location.

Continuous Audio Playback

The principle is simple also: as soon as you press Play on any page on the site, a ’sticky’ player will also show-up on the page footer

Then you can, if you want navigate to another page.

And the track will continue playing with no disruption.

You may also - at any moment - click the 4 horizontal bars on the sticky player to display the track list / playlist currently selected"

Custom patches for GS-e7 by synth_nyc (FREE download)

video upload by GS Music

"We proudly present these 64 custom patches for the GS-e7 Analog Polyphonic Synthesizer. The patches were made by synth_nyc and are now available to download from our website for free. In the future, they will be incorporated as factory presets."

"A few words from synth_nyc:
After designing some custom patches for Black Corporation Japan and GForce Software Ltd, I chose to design patches for the e7 because:

1. It sounds great to my ears and offer a complementary tone to all my hardware and software synth 2. It has memory
3. It has full MIDI implementation of all parameters, so I can remote edit it.

In addition; the e7 has some unique features, as far as I can tell, which really make it shine:
* Stereo output / voice spread with pan modulation
* 3 LFOs that can modulate pitch, PW, VCF and VCA
* Very cleverly / musically implemented features such as A/R velocity modulation, envelop KB tracking modulation, LFO rate KB tracking modulation, etc...

Not to say that the discrete VCO, VCF and VCA are a winning combo for a true analog tone.

Please contact GS Music if you need support.

Enjoy!

Mini-bio
synth_nyc first synth was a DX7 (mk1) in the mid-80s. synth_nyc always enjoyed programming sounds on the machine and it never appeared complex or non-intuitive to him. synth_nyc first analog synth was a MKS-50 (with PG-300) where he discovered that you did not need to spend 4 hours to design a great patch! After that, synth_nyc is grateful to have own classic and unique machines from the late 70s to early 90s like a CS-80, a Waldorf Wave, a PPG Wave 2.3, a MemoryMoog LAMM, Prophet 5 Rev2, Rev 3.3 and Prophet VS, OSCar, OB-X, Synthex, Sunsyn, Jupiter-8, Chroma, Hartmann Neuron and Voyetra Eight (the only vintage synth_nyc still owns) and many more! synth_nyc has learnt and enjoyed programming them all. Today synth_nyc is focussing his time on programming analogue renaissance hardware synths -with memories-; as well as new hybrids and new digitals, but also software synths as emulations, virtual modeling have come a long way; especially in the past year or 2 (so have computers) and are letting us enjoy amazing machines for a reasonable price, so close (or better) to the originals and hassle free."
