Nope, doesn't come with presets, since it is just an alpha version. But that's the fun right? Make your own!

But that said, I know Bronto Scorpio made a free preset pack for Bazille, and I think you'll find a number of other free presets if you search this thread.

edit: Ouch, just got ninja-posted by Bronto Scorpio himself! :D

So I do not understand?! Berlin Modular is a package of 3 separeta synths or it means that actually I can wire one synth to another and combine one thing from one synth and with another( for example I can route Filters from Ace to Bazilie or use Oscilator from Bazilie and route to Ace Lfo and so on)?

+1 on the Question.

It's 3 separate synths.

Let here from Urse.


P.s. maby with question he actually might do what I propose! :P

It may have been earlier in this thread, I don't remember, but I recall that Urs wrote that he thought that there may be the possibility to make one giant synth that will be the Berlin Modular, while releasing Bazille as a separate standalone in the meantime. Not sure what those plans are at the moment, if they've changed or not. So I guess subject to change/still being planned?

Plus, it's a long way off, since he and the U-he team are working on Zebra 3, which I can't wait to see (something in my gut is telling me that Zebra 3 might possibly prove to be the most significant soft synth to ever be developed. I just have a feeling we'll be talking about soft synths pre-Zebra 3 and post-Zebra 3 after a couple of years).

i haven't looked through this whole thread, and maybe i'm missing something simple in the interface, but is there a way to bypass the Gate or Envelope on the Outputs? it seems like the only way to get it to sound is by sending it a MIDI note-on.

i ask because one thing i love to do on the Nord Modular is to create drones that output continuously and don't need to be triggered. i don't see how this might be possible with Bazille. is there any workaround?

It's a dilemma with polyphonic synths. If output VCA envelope was bypassed, all 8 or so voices would sound at once. Special momophonic modes are required to avoid cacophony and make things usable. One needs to drop the voice concept, as we did with Zebrify.

Hmmm, not quite... the thing has evolved since, like KBSoundSmith says, instead of offering three different synths we might merge them into a single one. Think Bazille with Diva's way of swapping modules :oops:

Nah, that's way exaggerated. Z3 won't remotely have the significance of Diva.

Otoh no-one has copied Zebra's concept yet in, hmm 8 years, so its significance may be solely on the user side, but has no broader influence on synthesis per se. I guess marketing divisions put Zebra down as not sexy enough, cluttered with tabbed panels. Which just means they haven't understood it yet. But if Zebra3 looks sexy enough then, yeah, maybe some competition will pop up, about 10 years late. (That said, as w'rabbyt pointeth out, a synth with a similar concept existed beforehand, but wasn't a success)

Whoa - I smell a CPU munching beast. Will a 12-core not be enough? :D

You may be able to play a note or two :lol:

Two notes!!! That's double most 'real' modulars! :P

I would *love* it to be similar to the Nord modular editing software but with U-he (Diva) oscillators and filters... :shock:
