Right now I am going through every volume of Anomaly from VII on up and selecting sounds for Alchemy. It looks like it is going to take me two days to go through them all....

Post

Anomaly for Alchemy is shaping up....

I have sorted through Anomalies VII through XIX and selected 246 sounds to be included.

There are 4 folders of sounds:

Disturbances - 62 sounds, 211 Mb
In the Darkness - 68 sounds, 237 Mb
Lost Souls - 68 sounds, 225 Mb
The Asylum - 48 sounds, 241 Mb

That is without the inclusion of Anomaly Core.

Once I figure out what I am doing with Anomaly Core, I will have a final soundset size and be able to start working on presets.

A word about the presets... I am thinking of not doing the performance view part. I do not know if this is a deal breaker as far as Alchemy presets go and would be interested in any opinions. To me, it seems that each preset would then require 8 different presets to make it complete. I just want to be up front about that aspect of this project.

Still working on finalizing the soundset...

But - there are now two demo presets, with sounds, available.

These each have eight remix variations and up to 6 performance things assigned as well as the XY morph bit.

After a few days of experimenting I now have 12 presets out of 250 finished. This is going to take a while... :lol:

File is available here:

AnomalyAlchemyDemo

Just uncompress the folder and place the Anomaly Demo folder in your Alchemy presets folder.

I saved these to the Anomaly Demo folder using the "save consolidated" feature, so please let me know if that worked, and if the image shows up in the browser.

Updated demo file. Fixed differences in volume between remix variations and some problems with volume of sounds.

thats great to hear about Alchemy Presets (when its finished of course) !

just a small question , as your customer , becomes costumer (depends on the volumes and purchases for sure) the Alchemy presets for free or are the Alchemy Presets a new purchase ?

Post

Been thinking about that.... Because this pulls sounds from all volumes of Anomaly from VII to XIX, people may or may not have the sounds being used.

So, when this is ready - anyone on my mailing list will get a very hefty discount.

Still thinking on it...

Post

thanks Daniel for the fast response and especially for making presets for Alchemy !

tbh i would personal even pay some extra money as your customer , because i know its time expensive to make this etc. !

have a nice day

Post

Thanks... :D

I will make sure that existing customers get a sweet deal on this when it is finished.

The hardest thing for me right now is getting used to a different work flow. There is so much more to do for each preset!

I am at 20 finished presets out of 250, but am thinking of wiping all of the remix variations and doing them over now that I have a better understanding of Alchemy.

Post

Demo file updated - now has three presets with 8 remix variations each along with the sounds.

The first 20 presets are now finalized. I went and re-did all of the remix variations today. Only 230 left to go...

Post

Demo file location has changed. I updated the link above or you can now just get it here:

Not having the performance view isn't a deal breaker for me. If I want them, I'll just put 'em in on my own. :)

Now off to download the demo! :D

I decided to do at least 6 performance views per preset as well as 8 remix variations... So for the 250 presets for this soundset that comes to 2000 variations in all.

Right now I have 35 presets finished. Only 215 more to go...
