Vintage Strings MKIII

Vintage Strings MkIII can produce a wide range of rich warm string pads, and other beautiful atmospheric sounds.

The third version of Vintage Strings presents various new features that expand its sound capabilities and make it even better:

The color control in the timbre section enables the creation of new beautiful choirs and pad sounds. In the envelope section you can now choose the analog envelope mode, for an accurate emulation of vintage string machines envelopes. The reverb section was completely revamped and now enables you to select between a smooth studio reverb and an authentic spring reverb. The new 7th buttons enables each string section to play seven notes above the original pitch, for thicker string sounds. The old user interface was replaced with a new one.

Main Features:

  • Realistic emulation of vintage string machines.
  • Two separate string sections with beautiful string sound.
  • Chorus section that accurately emulates the chorus effect on vintage string machines.
  • Advanced reverb section with a smooth studio reverb and authentic spring reverb.
  • Analog and regular envelope modes.

This is an excellent VSTi. Do not be put off by the fact it was assembled in Synthedit. It is a very powerful string machine creator that I have found to be superior to 'Virtual String Machine' by GMedia (a product which to me isn't very playable - why they went the samples route after their excellent Oddity and impOSCar modelled plugins, I do not know!). The latest version of Musicrow's Vintage Strings is even better than the original MKI version; it's my favourite way to pad my songs, depending on the vibe I'm going for, after a Hammond organ (Guido's VB3 if you're wondering!) and it sits and glues into the mix beautiful. It can also be used for nice lead sounds. In addition, those big fat detuned 'dance' string sounds are possible; although I do not use these in my music. The built in chorus ensemble effect is excellent although I also like to turn it off and run the plugin into a phasor to get different tones.

Vintage Strings has never crashed inside my host (Cubase SX 2.2) and it is quick to load. The product is highly recommended, excellent value and gives very professional results.

Product: White Crow
Developer: Musicrow
Type: Synth (Phase Distortion)
Price: No longer available
OS: Windows
Formats: VST
White Crow is a phase distortion synthesizer. White Crow offers 8 basic waveforms: saw, square, pulse, double-sine, saw-pulse, reso1, reso2 and reso3. A second set of (identical) waveforms can be added to create new unusual waveforms. Each of the two PD oscillators is made of 5 sub-oscillators that can be detuned for the creation of fat rich sounds. The phase distortion amount of each oscillator can be modulated by 2 ADSR envelopes, an LFO, and velocity. This will affect the sound timbre over time instead of the regular filter modulations. A lowpass filter can also be used as an additional sou... [more]
