    What is Lfo 1 doing? it seems to be active from your initialized patch, but for me it seems to start the initialized patch without! thank you so much.

    This is really impressive, many thanks. Obviously you have a depth of background knowledge that is so far unknown to many of the rest of us. I would have no ability to even think of doing many of the modulations you are putting on. I think it would be very valuable to your community to offer us some background as far as how you came to the state of knowledge that you obviously have. This video is a great advertisement for the value of your presets.

    Thanks for this video, Eric. Growing up at a time when only physical instruments existed, through the initial wave of synthesis (original Moog and ARP units that weren’t yet polyphonic) to now have such synthesis power in a FREE plugin is sometimes mind boggling. Your videos are incredibly instructive and enjoyable to watch. I enjoyed understanding the ‘simple steps’ to get both a Wurli and Rhodes sound. Had a Wurli years ago that I sadly had to get rid of. I like this version almost better than the physical version. Thanks again. Cheers!

      @EricBowman  Год назад +2

      @@sjursjur Sometimes I'm using a value (for example on the cutoff) that corresponds to a value in the harmonic series (if it's key-tracking 100%). If I'm matching a reference, I'll look at a spectral analyzer to get exact values. Otherwise, I just use my ear. I hope that helps!

    Impressive work. This convinced me to buy your sound pack when I am at my PC.
    Do you plan to make more sound packs in the future or do you extend the current one as you did in the past? Is it possible to load later versions of it then?
    I saw you also have some great brass sounds. What do you think, is it possible to make something like a saxophone on a synthesizer as well?

    • @EricBowman
      @EricBowman  Год назад +2

      Thanks! I'm probably going to keep Sounds You Know to about 200 presets. I'm releasing a new pack soon called Ear Candy. Saxophone is tricky because its performance is usually so nuanced. I've made something resembling a classical saxophone, but I imagine people would expect it to sound more like a jazz or pop saxophone.

  • @user2048
    @user2048 Год назад +7

    Really nice! But my "Initialize Preset" must be different from yours (different default preset, maybe mine's screwed up). Mine sets LFO1 tempo to a 1/2 note but LFO1 doesn't modulate anything. I can see that your LFO1 has Frequency set to 0.180 secs. But what is it modulating, with what amount?

    • @EricBowman
      @EricBowman  Год назад +8

      Vital v. 1.5 and later lets you set a default preset. In mine, I have LFO 1 set to modulate fine pitch and the mod wheel is modulating that amount. The result is vibrato control for the mod wheel. Not necessary for a electric piano sound though since they usually don't use vibrato.

      You can use LFO’s as macros by setting the rate to “freeze”, changing the shape to a ramp up, and adjusting the phase slider to adjust the “macro” amount.
