MSoundFactory Intro Video (NON-Official, but authorized!) posted…

[David]

FYI, just posted Part 1 of a beginner's guide series about MSF, based on my first 3 months of working with it, and quite probably hitting EVERY possible mis-understanding and mistaken notion, in the process, here:



Perhaps it may smooth the path for someone else; hope so!

Many thanks to all who helped me out along the way…

Cool video. I'm sure it will be helpful for people when trying to learn how MSF works.

Spot any errors? Please let me know!

Thanks!

I find it kind of weird that no one’s posted basic sound demos of this synth.

You mean, like Preset walk-thrus?

There haven't really been any presets til now, with the public beta; plus, it's been only a beta til just this week, so…disclosure? (though there's no non-disclosure agreement…but still.)

All the sounds in my 2 videos come from MSF only, fwiw, and there's all those Chandler #msoundfactory youtube vids, which are great feature walk-thrus, with plenty of sounds.

No doubt there'll be some review vids soon, now that it's for sale, though maybe folks who often do that kind of thing are wondering if a beta is worth a review, or even worth checking out…who knows. I'm working on a few more videos that do a lot more showing off the sounds than feature explaining, coming up asap, though there's so much to explore with the new Instruments and Global preset now included in the beta, that, you know, where's the time!?

Oh, I guess I’ve not really heard about this one, so I wasn’t aware how long its been released, but usually there are some official videos that show off the variety of sounds.

Part 3: Mode Marvels, Easy ways to use Modes, Easy Screens, MPs in MSF

Thanks, David, for these videos. This is all new to me and I like your approach. It takes a bit of getting use to the 'melda way'. I like the way the modules are generalized and I'm about to take on a deep dive myself in the near future.

[David]

Glad to hear it, Jim:) And that you're getting something from these videos—you're very welcome!
(And MANY thanks for all the great Reaktor stuff over the years !!)

[nak21]

Thanks for the tutorial videos,David. Part 3: Mode Marvels is a winner!
I need to find the time to go through them more slowly.

[mevla]

It's not easy to say +1 for those videos only so I'll put forth:

+1 for the videos by Chandler and David (and many by Melda, the ones that are actual tutorials)

[arachnaut]

Yes, there are a great many fine tutorials on YouTube for Melda stuff.
Here is a list of some in a directory list in the zip file. You can search for them by name or save the playlists in YouTube:

I always keep these YT searches a click away:
