If you mean they still appear in the browser, hit F5 to refresh the browser.

yes, that can be a little confusing

I did the original Muz3um for z3ta+ in 2004, after René added the capability to load directly wave files for the oscillator sections

then, in 2008 I release a bank with the same name for Rapture, but the two packs have nothing in common in terms of content. They share only the idea of being based on waveforms from analog synthesizers

a second Muz3um bank was released last year for z3ta+2, reprogramming the original presets in order to include the new features

talking about free packs for Rapture, one of my favourites is the "Twisted Oscillators PA bank of the month", really excellent and absolutely recommended
here for both Win and Mac
hm i am getting lots of wav not found errors with this bank!?

Hello cyphersuit
which bank are you talking about, Muz3um or Twisted Oscillators?

Muz3um for Rapture ... I've been initiated, because of the recent Sale. Excellent work! I aspire to lively playable analog patches like this. Great collection. Appreciate you sharing your careful work on these.

I am not sure that was a good idea, in any event the F5 key refreshes the browser. You can also force a refresh by deleting the programs.lst in the Programs folder.

+1 Muz3um is just great fun to play with, sounds awesome layering a couple of Rapture plugs, and having them play Muz3um sequence patches

fr4ncesco, did you personally record all the single-cycle waves from the hardware? or did you work with a group to collect all of the waves? I am blown away by how good Rapture's saturation algo sounds with some of these patches and the filter is very clean as well. It really seems to bring out the original bite and character some of those synths are known for.

fr4ncesco is being modest

I see he also has a NEW set of patches (actually an entire expansion with EGs, LFO's, waves etc) which are on sale during the CW sale. Definitely a no-brainer after hearing his work on Muz3um.

Nice. I see that many of the Muz3um programs are meant to be used perhaps in Mulit-timbral setup. Great that it is 6 part multi-timbral.

Oops I missed the credits.. I see them in the download as well. To everyone involved, a HUGE pat on the back. I see the synth has a bit of a learning curve. I'll be spending some time on Patch Arena to find out more.

i just fired up Rapture but it changes the system sample rate to 44.1khz and i have everything at 48khz so how do i change it, the sample rate is greyed out in my soundcards control panel.

I am glad you ask this, Rapture's Microhost was changing my sample rate to 48000 and I run everything else at 44100. So I did a little digging around. If you are running Windows, the sample rate for Cakewalk synths running microHost is stored in the registry; for Rapture HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\microHost\Rapture keyword SampleRate. I just changed mine to 44100 and it works fine. BTW, if you do not have a SampleRate entry, create it as a DWORD.

actually that set is already two years old, but a few months ago we released a free bonus pack with more than 200 new programs

of course I'm biased, but I think Uni120 is a pretty good set

completely different from Muz3um, it uses also a lot of sfz multisamples
with instruments such as guitar, electric and acoustic piano, percussions,
which are then processed both offline with various tools (granular, convolution, lofi plugins) and online with Rapture's onboard dsp section

the results is some kind of electro-acoustic hybrid, quite cinematic feeling in my opinion
