WOW!!! Professor Yao Wang broke this down so clearly. Thank you for this simple tutorial. I FINALLY feel like I don't have to be afraid of sound design anymore .. I feel more prepared to go in an make my own unique sounds using pre-existing libraries too which I really can't wait for.
I have began designing my own sound using a synthesizer software. The challenge that I face is I am limited by the timbre of the waveform. This video has opened me to unlimited possibility!
Hello guys! Thanks for the useful information. Everything is super as always! Lessons on the basics of synthesis planned ? Types of synthesis, their differences, pros and cons. Regards, Yaroslav.
0:05 It doesn't seem like the opening statement is addressing the actual problem that you are providing a solution to. You state that the problem is that "if you use the same libraries as everyone else, you run the risk of sounding like everyone else." However, the video started with the good news that there are "SO MANY well made libraries at our disposal". If the problem indeed was that using the same library as everyone else is making you sound like everyone else, then the response to your opening statement would be: "you just said that there are SO MANY well made libraries at our disposal, so if I just use a library that not everyone is using then I will not run the risk of sounding like everyone else." Problem solved. However, your video seems to address another problem. Something like: "Even though the abundance of well made libraries provide you with enough material to not sound like everyone else, there are more effective ways to get a unique sound! Making a one-of-a-kind unique pad will make you stand out from the crowd, more so than just choosing a lesser known (or less used) library." Apart from the problematic logic of the opening statement, this is a great tutorial, very clear and pedagogically presented🌟Well done, I really enjoyed it!
@Virtual Orchestration < I took interest in programming synth patches on a Korg, after attending the Elton John concert tour at the Ice Palace in Tampa, that was later released as 'Live in Australia'. It was near 20 years later VST synths became of interest to me. Even today, while I use both real and computer machine gear, I prefer recording on my old Fostex hard disk, with ART rack mount FX.
this is very beautiful and organic
Awesome!
This video taught me more than I learned in the past couple of years~🙂
Great tutorial!
Thank you very much, Matt!

So many ways to be creative and unique, great stuff
So helpful
yo cheers for taking the title critique into account, these new ones are way better balanced
Thank You Very Much!
🙏

Excellent tutorial! Thank you.

Hi Prof! kudos for this great tutorial ..
Good video. Thank you
Thank you so much for providing this kind of detailed, versatile and very useful information on your channel.
It's the first time in my life I actually want to build pads.
Long video, great lesson.

Or just use an organ patch with tremolo or a Leslie - there, saved you 16 minutes.
Or.. layer them ;)
and haven't learned anything or explored how to build a pad sound yourself. Great Suggestion, thank you, Belladonna.
