Thanks! Maybe also check my previous video, it might be closer to what you're interested in. If you browse my channel, you can find more stuff on resonators and physical modeling style synthesis (even pretty involved stuff).
It's available since late '18, but for Windows only. We started working on the OSX port, but we found that we do not have the resources to support multiple platforms.
@@9b0well I was inspired to try that reverb as resonator trick from your video. Otherwise realism comes from modulation- I also mapped after touch to vibrato and velocity to pitch glide speed (as well as modwheel / foot control to volume and tone and vibrato).
Wow, incredible sound. Can't believe how "simple" the patch is relative to how good it sounds. Shows how much you can do wiith simple tools if you have the right skills. Well done!
It's Windows VST2.4 only, CLAP is not supported yet (it's currently only supported by Bitwig and FLStudio AFAIK). VST3 is in development (we delay it as much as we can due to compatibility issues in presets (MIDI CC cannot work the same way in VST3 as in VST2.4). Parameters can be exposed using the knob node in the bottom right field. www.afmodular.com/nodes/knob
The patch I've build in my previous video (physical modeling workflow) resembles the structure of the reverb node pretty closely (the difference is, that the reverb uses circular allpass filters, and the input of each allpass stage is delayed), so I thought, this might do something useful as well with low size settings. It's a lot better than expected. :D Also gave it a go inside my piano patch, and even if the CPU usage skyrocketed, the low piano keys became pretty realistic...
This is great, thank you! I was looking how to do non 'orchestral' strings sound for a long time. Would be also very interesting to see if it possible add harmonics modulation (like here, for example ruclips.net/video/AGsjA1pXajk/видео.htmlsi=g5erauFEK9Y2Y42d in the beginning, when cello starts 'screaming'. Sounds so cool!). Maybe idea for another video? ;)
I got pretty close to this effect using a simple comb filter that processed the oscillator, and was tuned several octaves higher. I've also added a crossfader that balanced between the oscillator and the comb filtered oscillator signal. Controling these many parameters requires a touch pad, or something two dimensional that I don't have here, so it is really awkward to play.
@@9b0 Wow, thank you for your answer! I will definitely need to try it out. I don't have much experience with comb filters, nonetheless, I'll give it a try and see how it goes
I redid it, and saved the patch this time. :D www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/l91hui2vg7jdmdotsxheu/Expressive_solo_string_with_harmonic_modulation.txt?rlkey=fne6fwiqx34ro4ywcqn5xynxv&dl=0 I hope, this does the trick for you too. I can pretty much nail the sound of the Cyberpunk string.
Thank you so much for sharing the patch! I really appreciate your effort. I'm currently experimenting with it in VCV Rack, and while I've nailed the base string sound, cracking the harmonic modulation part is still a work in progress for me. However, I'm determined to find a way to check out your file in the patcher you using now and learn from it. I truly appreciate your help!
Oh, it seem it would be more difficult for me to check it out. I was hoping to use trial version of alpha forever to open it, but it looks like it isn't available anymore I hate to bother you again, but would you mind sharing some screenshots of your patch? I'm really eager to learn from your techniques, and I'm sure seeing the setup would be incredibly helpful for me. Thanks a bunch for your time!
Was just thinking about getting deeper into physical modeling and then this video appears on my dashboard. Cool stuff, thank you!

Can we buy this software yet?

Thanks for sharing this - I made a very similar patch in Hyperion synth also shared on my channel. This technique worked really well.
Wow. Your approach is almost the same as mine, and works just as fine too.

many thanks, I'm glad you like it! it's so easy to overcomplicate things, while sometimes there really is an easy way to get things done.
Just Wooooow 👍👍👍
😊 many many thx!
Is there a CLAP version for Bitwig? Are all parameters exposed for remotes? Thanks
It's Windows VST2.4 only, CLAP is not supported yet (it's currently only supported by Bitwig and FLStudio AFAIK). VST3 is in development (we delay it as much as we can due to compatibility issues in presets (MIDI CC cannot work the same way in VST3 as in VST2.4).

The reverb trick to emulate the body is crazy, thanks for sharing!

insane video dude!!! 🙏🙏🙏
any updates on AFM?
🥰🙏🙏🙏
thanks! we are constantly working on it. we try to wrap up stuff to have an official update soonish.
