Zebralette 3 Tips & Tricks

[Beachboy]

I played around with the Formant FX and got a nice vocal preset out of it.

Those unfamiliar, you load a preset, then load the randomizer.h2p, it instantly creates the new version, if you like the result, name and save as a new preset. You can have multiple versions of the script, renamed with various random amounts you choose. You can prepend the title(s) with something like aa- ii- or zz- in the title, so you see them at the top, middle, and bottom of larger multi-column preset banks. Rescan with your daw to have them active.

Thanks, this is my favorite tip so far, especially as I didn't know about for Zebra2.
It's not a replacement for randomizing/locking individual sections, but is definitely better than nothing.

(the preset shares are also appreciated)

*EDIT*
Could someone please upload a working version of randomizer.h2p?

is it possible to get white noise out of this synth? i'm trying to make a snare.

Basically. My thoughts immediately turned to FM noise, so I tried DeltaX in both OSC FX plus some modulation to get this:

I'm not saying it's the best or only way to do it, just what came to mind to try. Also not claiming it's a great snare -- but I tried to do it all with just the one oscillator for the challenge of it, rather than bouncing down and using multiple instances for the noise and pitch elements.

It gets more noisy than Zebralette 2... but it doesn't have anything that emits white or pink noise per se.

I'll answer my own question.

This preset generator/ merger also supports Zebralette 3:

I played around with the Formant FX and got a nice vocal preset out of it. Voxalette.zip

That's pretty good
May I add some control (mod wheel etc)?

Thanks, I'm happy that you like it and of course you can add some control to make it a usable preset.

Hey guys whats the most efficent way to do jagged waveforms like those in the old game consoles?

[Howard]

At least in this beta version: setting high XY grid values and clicking repeatedly with the GridStep tool.

Thanks, still a bit tedious and inaccurate, would love some sort of modifer or oscillator effect for this.

I assume there will eventually be a Quantize OscFX.

It might be useful to have an option in the editor itself to quantize to grid.

[jtsterays]

I prefer the latter, so i can add it to only certain parts of the waveform if i wanted to.
