Does anyone have any FM8 tips for getting the gritty bass sound in the trailer or the dub bass sound in the 4th track?

Use Massive, Harmor, Harmless, SkannerXT, Razor or any number of like synths to get that sound.

What's the lightest CPU additive synth?

Dunno. Harmless seems harmless enough (lol).

The others are pretty hefty! I'm going to guess that Razor and/or SkannerXT are less CPU intensive, but don't base any decision on my guesses.

What is this instrument about?

The trailer posted on youtube is just some wolf running around with a couple of still pictures of the interface Rolling Eyes

And is it an emulation?:

I think THE machine is the Synclavier

Well, then why can't they write that outright?

It feels like a bootleg instrument when they beat around the bush with their "nudge, nudge, knowarrImean" THE machine Rolling Eyes

I don't get how can this be an emulation of the Synclavier. AFAIK, the Synclavier was able to do FM, additive, sampling and resynthesis. Don't know about filters and/or envelopes. Does anyone know how can the simple UVI Workstation emulate all these synthesis techniques?

Synclavier I was not so versatile as later version of that machine.

UVI is a weird company. Some of their sample banks are incredible (plugsound pro is awesome) and some are total shit (Synths Anthology has pretty much every single preset totally silent at below 64 velocity which makes them totally useless to use with touch-sensitivity).

FM is possible for sure, since UVI Workstation has it (well it's the engine behind MachFive 3 after all). Additive can also be done in theory, by using analog stack oscillators.

Hello Rifftrax,

Your issue is quite weird.....
Do you confirm you had copied both UFS files into the same UVISoundBanks location (i.e., SynthAnthology.ufs and SynthAnthology.ufs1) ?

Feel free to contact us for any further help --> support@uvi.net

Best regards from UVI Team.

Rifftrax,

One last thing, the Synths Anthology sound bank has been updated 2 years ago.
Therefore, you might need to be up to date......
Don't hesitate to contact us if needed (support@uvi.net), we can give you a FTP link to update your library.
