TAL released NoiseMaker

Ah, subjectiveness is going to kill us all in the end.

Of course, all subjective opinions are equally valid aren't they?

And my two year old nephew's subjective opinion as to which is the better car (it's the blue one!) carries just as much weight as that of the jobbing automechanic, right?

At the risk of over extending the metaphor (in a somewhat pithy fashion), I have at least done a fair bit of fiddling around under the hood of Synth1; there's a full bank of my Synth1 patches up for dl - not that I'm making any great claims for them (some people seemd to think they were okay) - and, such as they are, those are the credentials with which I back up my subjective opinion vis-a-vis the relative merits of Synth1's and Noisemaker's filters.

Might I, with respect, ask, can you offer any evidence or qualification that lends weight to the subjective opinion you've expressed here (have you, for example, put up any of your own S1 patches for dl - I'v checked the database and there's none under your forum name)?

Hm, 64 bit version can't be found in logic 9 (32bit) and they are both named the same way.
so how can i get the 32 and the 64 bit version to work with logic ?

Anyone else getting a warning message in FL 9.1 about not being able to save the plug-ins settings? It happens when I save a project and open said project..

Synth1's filter has extremely nice overdrive IMHO - I dare to say it has way more balls than NoiseMaker's.

THIS

For my money Noisemaker's filter is an order of magnitude better - it's well balanced, clean, detailed, adds a pleasing colour, warmth and body, the self oscillation has a sweet musicality to it and the transition to it is a smooth 'natural' sounding progression.

In comparison S1's filter is just a tad flat, thin, fuzzy, indistinct, self osc. is harsh and boomy, the transition to it is sudden, the filter doesn't add much interesting colour; on the whole, it does the job in a fairly workman like fashion, but to quote someone else, it's rather 'meh' .

No, mine are better.

I am working on my Synth1 bank slowly and quietly in the background of my paid Kontakt KSP scripting jobs

Will let you know when I post something. Or rather, you're gonna see it in my signature


My own opinion about comparing those two filters is: Synth1 filter sounds AMAZING for the CPU the whole synth takes. That alone is THE reason I like to use that synth a lot. TAL's synths perhaps do sound smoother (courtesy of oversampling), but they pack a plenty CPU hit over here, so that's why I rarely use them. But I keep them, just in case I upgrade my machine. You know, they're still free!

And, this being absolutely particular (and will probably showcase in my bank), I absolutely LOVE good quality saturation, and I find it in Synth1 filter when used with care. There is one other synth that I particularly adore because of its overdrive characteristics, and that's OLGA. Need I say anything more?

Okay, well that really is a difference of taste then - I'm not overly keen on saturation (least ways I rarely use it in Synth1) or, for that matter, Olga.

What is he, some kind of idiot? Everyone knows red ones are faster...

Just downloaded this ... very nice. Works fine in Live 8.1.4
Thanks TAL

"This" means "I agree"? Boy, that's so 15-year-old kid... but why not.

I thought everyone knew all the internet forum lingo by now. I'm 23 if that matters. You must be 50+?

Lingo is one thing, youngsters' slang is another, the difference being that with the first you can say things faster and more efficiently, with the second one you use alternate, intentionally crypted words when you could use common words with the same result while being comprehensible to most everybody I'm not 50 yet (just 46) and there's nothing wrong with your lingo, it's just more suitable for someone your age, I guess

Its mostly not really slang for the purpose of incomprehensibility. Its interpreting things that happen IRL (in the real world) into words that didn't really convey the full meaning before. It's an extension of language, not the bastardization of it (Well okay, sometimes it is ).

"THIS" is kind of a shorthand for "This is just the thing I wanted/was thinking!" But that is wordy and not as emphatic. It's not too different from when you can't think of a word, then suddenly someone else says it and you exclaim "Yeah, that!", rather than "Yes, 'onomatopoeia' was the word I was looking for." It conveys an additional excitement that the full phrase may lack.

I disagree (or maybe I should say NOT THIS), but I guess that's just a matter of opinions

The response in internet slang would be "no u" or "tl;dr".
