So what should the paths be for my preset folders, pretty please?

Enable "View all/hidden folders" in the Control Panel's "Folder Options", then you should see a folder called "Programs Data" now viewable on C:\ (or root). Some vst plugs put their plugin specific presets in folders there

2 more presets:

This one is total nonsense

Turn up the feedback to get more unicorn farts, Slope makes your unicorns jump on a pogo stick and depth and overmod add some weird oscillator sync like effect. Low depth/overmod settings can sound quite cool though.

Code: Select all

<ValhallaUberMod pluginVersion="1.0.1" presetName="Unicorn Cluster" Mix="1" Depth="0.5" StereoWidth="0.400000006" Delay="0" Feedback="0" Spread="0.5" Slope="0.5" Skew="0.5" Random="0" TapGain="0.541666687" Diffusion="0.100000001" DiffSize="0.0612244904" DiffModRate="0.0490490496" DiffModDepth="0" LowCut="0.0954773873" HighCut="0.547738671" SpatialXover="0.145728648" DetuneRate="0.809809804" DetuneDepth="1" VibratoRate="0.298245609" VibratoDepth="0" OverMod="0.24242425" DriveInGain="0.375" DriveOutGain="0.75" DriveNoiseGain="0.333333343" FeedbackRotate="0.5" SmoothingTime="0.0990990996" ColorMode="0" DelaySync="0.0588235296" type="0.291666657" DiffEnable="1" Drive="0" DrivePrePost="1" Speed="0" InputPan="0"/>

You need this preset if you ever need a reverb for a slow motion scifi movie explosion sound. It's also useful to add depth and motion to pads.

Code: Select all

<ValhallaUberMod pluginVersion="1.0.1" presetName="Time Corridor" Mix="0.5" Depth="0.5" StereoWidth="0.5" Delay="0.0149999997" Feedback="0.899999976" Spread="1" Slope="1" Skew="0.5" Random="0" TapGain="0.5" Diffusion="1" DiffSize="0.693877578" DiffModRate="0.0290290285" DiffModDepth="0.150000006" LowCut="0.145728648" HighCut="0.34673366" SpatialXover="0.145728648" DetuneRate="0.0390390381" DetuneDepth="1" VibratoRate="0.0977443606" VibratoDepth="0.100000001" OverMod="0" DriveInGain="0" DriveOutGain="1" DriveNoiseGain="0" FeedbackRotate="1" SmoothingTime="0.0990990996" ColorMode="1" DelaySync="0.0588235296" type="0.25" DiffEnable="1" Drive="0" DrivePrePost="1" Speed="0" InputPan="0.125"/>

Another good preset with a bad name. This one is an overmodulated reverb with a slow attack:

<ValhallaUberMod pluginVersion="1.0.1" presetName="FlirtyFishing" Mix="1" Depth="0.745999992" StereoWidth="0.5" Delay="0.290499985" Feedback="0.66900003" Spread="1" Slope="0" Skew="0.89200002" Random="0.356000006" TapGain="0.5" Diffusion="1" DiffSize="0.630612254" DiffModRate="0.0930930898" DiffModDepth="0.404000014" LowCut="0" HighCut="0.583919585" SpatialXover="0.145728648" DetuneRate="0.0650650635" DetuneDepth="0.5" VibratoRate="0.122305766" VibratoDepth="0.0439999998" OverMod="0.00404040422" DriveInGain="0.375" DriveOutGain="0.75" DriveNoiseGain="0.333333343" FeedbackRotate="0.5" SmoothingTime="0.0990990996" ColorMode="1" DelaySync="0" type="0.333333343" DiffEnable="1" Drive="0" DrivePrePost="1" Speed="0" InputPan="0.125"/>

I've been playing around with the Z-DSP, and a few of the algorithms I have developed on there have this sort of overly detuned action going on. The name comes from the Children of God, now known as The Family International.

I don't see any coupling capacitors.

deleted - mistake

arachnaut · Post by **arachnaut** » Sat Sep 21, 2013 6:42 pm

I copied all the KVR patches in this post to date and made this set of presets.
None of these are mine and I may have made some typos and mistakes here and there.

I have two suggestions for a future version:
1) When saving a preset, automatically provide the file name from the preset name - this will save a lot of time and typos.
2) Add an XML tag in the preset with the registered user's name so the author gets displayed. Copy and paste from clipboard should preserve the name.

The presets may be downloaded from here:

Yeah, I feel a little queasy with that name.

But that patch deserves it. Really ugly, isn't it?

In fact if you just let is play with no input it will gradually build up a great sound due to feedback artifacts.
