One Synth Challenge #186: Any Two Synths Challenge (Viroo Wins!)

[] Peter:H []

A little test ride with Vital showcasing a bunch of presets I have built for vital over time ...
https://soundcloud.com/p-e-t-e-r-h/osc- ... mpaign=utm

I think Vital is my go to synth for this round ... what would you recommend me to use as a complementary synth? Is there any allowed-in-OSC synth that covers terrain Vital is not covering?
Would for instance Zebralette 3 be a candidate? No experience with it ... is it cool?

@Richard
Just for paranoias sake: If I choose to use Vital, am I allowed to use ...
a.) the Factory Samples coming with the Synth, for instance a sample called "River"
b.) the text-2-speech capability?

Thanks!

Anything which comes with the free version of the synth is fair game.
Imported samples, paid for features or sound sets are not allowed.

Something weird and limited to offset Vital.

I can't wait to hear what crazy stuff you creative people come up with this round! I will make a kick drum.

I like zebralette 3 for cymbals so far. Its super easy with the additive engine.

Hi, I´m new in this forum.

I was looking for a Solina free instrument and I´ve found this

https://plugins4free.com/plugin/792/ (https://plugins4free.com/plugin/792/)

I have read in a old post that download it from outside of creator break the License Agreement (viewtopic.php?p=4007546#p4007546)

Could I use it for this challenger?

But that was 14 years ago and the Elektrostudio package has always been free as far as I know, so I'm sure you can. WOK also has two excellent string machines on his website, Cromina/Estrima, or B.Serrano Chorus MkII, or Krakli S3 series.

In general, welcome!) Under the main message on 1st page there is a link to Discord, the most active communication takes place there. I'm wondering why the String Machine and what you want to take second?

Thanks again! Installing Discord...

My second pick is Animator 2 (https://www.krakliplugins.com/arminator-2 (https://www.krakliplugins.com/arminator-2)) so you could guest what I´m trying to do

Oh, I really love Krakli synthesizers and I'll be waiting for your track to hear it in action! Although I have this thought: Arminator is already good enough for the sounds of string machines, so the second synthesizer could be additive or physical modeling or something else, Krakli has several too this would expand the range of sounds available to you. But, of course, decide for yourself)

And also, when I save a sketch with some old synthesizers in a DAW and then load it again, sometimes the synthesizer resets current preset to the first factory one. Check this moment for yourself so as not to lose valuable sounds you found!

I'm using a Windows laptop for this project for the first time in about 20 years. I chose Waveform as DAW and I'm struggling a lot with VST, VST3, 32bit, 64bit, ... I can´t load any 32bit VST.

Any recommendation to solve it?

My first advice is that you will get a lot more advice in Discord and much faster.

Second tip: if you are considering changing DAW, the best free solutions will be the Reaper free trial, Cakewalk and probably ZRythm.

Third tip: if you want to stay on Waveform, I do not know if there is a bridge there and how it works. I'm in Cakewalk and here 32 bit plugins just open via the built-in bridge by default. There are several plugs found by a quick search: T Bridge, JBridge (commercial), Kushview Elements (free version), maybe Ildaeil, maybe VeeSTeeEx. Again, there are several Waveform users among us in the Discord, and in principle, communication and help there is much faster, I recommend you to come in.

Just a matter of interest: what's stopping you from using 64bit vsts?

Are Daw Synths allowed?

[BrainBeatMusic]

Sorry guys for this nitpicking rant but wanted to make sure we are all on the same page as to what is ok under the rules as stated.

So my understanding of the rules is you must only use 1 or 2 Freeware synth and or effects plugins which would mean ALL Open-source plugins would be prohibited as they are not propriety and so are released under a different licence.

I would say we are also by my logic at least you should be allowed to use a DAW synth but only those that are included in the free version of the software (assuming this exists).
If my understanding is incorrect, may I suggest that the rules be clarified as Freeware /= Free Opensource?

I would also think that any early access synths we have used are also ineligible to be used as they are or intended to be paid at some stage but we were given a licence for free. This may also make any pay-what-you-want plugins intelligible as well depending on if you see them as paid plugins that you chose to pay $0 for or the opposite where it is free and you chose to support the developer.

Yeah, that was the first thing I wanted to be clear about.
