I have been looking to buy a commercial vsti to go with my cubase synths

Options:

Arturia - any
WayOutWare Time Warp 2600

BUT I have listened to Rhino and I'm blown away buy the smooth sound and especially the add on banks for purchase.

Question - I could not find the pich bend and modulation settings for a midi contoller; is there any ?

Thanks

Pitch bend is automatically assigned to notes pitch, with a variable range.

All midi CC, including mod wheel, can be assigned to any slider (including the 6 user sliders at the lower right). The 'midi learn' procedure to assign a midi CC to a slider is described in the manual.

Hope this answers your question.

Yes thanks

How would you compare the oscillators in Rhino compared to Arturia's moog emulations. are they similar or are they created in a different way ?

Just curious !

I don't know how the Arturia ones are created. Rhino oscs always start up their life as samples (or as wavetables, which can be considered a sample as well).
By the time they reach the audio output, though, they've been mangled beyond recognition through the FM / filters / effects section.

With Arturia's oscillators you are stuck with the standard few they give you. With Rhino you have hundreds of choices with more on the way. Or you can make your own.

If you took every synth you owned, layered them and recorded that, you could then import it back into Rhino as a waveform. You'd then be able to mangle it to your hearts content and layer it again... Imagine the possibilities!

I think that a simple answer is that even though many synths like Rhino can produce a wide variety of Timbres, every synth has a charactor all it's own.

Arturia's Moog is a synth that has been tweaked for thousands of hours to have a warm moog sound.

It is a very simplistic synth compared to Rhino though.

To me, Rhino has a mix of old DX sound mixed with sweet and interesting spectrals.

Everyone has their own reaction and relationship to each synth though.

Both of those Arps are sweet, I just don't think I could deal with the old hardware interfaces.
