Nice Video Alex well done my friend :)
Thank you James!
Thank you Bro you are awesome!!!! made this very comprehendible
@@stacystacksbeats999 Nice! Glad to be helpful
Has the same problem as Arturia's wurlitzer. The release sound isn't how a real wurly sounds. It has this spongy, rubbery pluck. I don't understand why plugin developers never include this when they do wurlitzer emulations, because I have played a lot of em in real life and they all have it. Keyscape is the only plugin I know of that nailed it. But that's another pricepoint obviously.
definitely better then FL keys. haha
No doubt lol
# drop your mask!
hmmm maybe at 100,000 subs
I personally use the Arturia Stage 73 for all my Electric Piano needs.. Bur might give this one a try cause Im definitely a Cherry Audio fanboi!!! ✨
The Stage 73 sounds great!
Nice effects. The mod stuff reminds me of the Led Zeppelin track “No Quarter” It really nails it.
Cherry Audio is the other Arturia. 😂 Great instrument and fx. A small honey team and Dan there has an amazing vintage collection and love of synths. ❤
It shows that love :)
This is a useful service and your style and taste is useful too... I believe in what you are doing... you are saving us time and energy... plus making us smarter and keeping us in the loop! 20 years of production and i dont have the time to test and install each one to see if theyre that good!! also head into unique and wonderful samplers and samples because..... who has the TIME!!
Thank you for this comment! Glad I'm being helpful
*Unfortunately* the Spectral Compressor eats transients for breakfast - so only usable as a sound design tool.
I'm still experimenting with it but I use it subtly for resonance control
@@AlexReidStudios That was my plan as well, because the resonance taming works really nicely (the actual hands-on controls are quirky, but I got used to it pretty quickly) ... until that acoustic guitar track 😅
Very, very informative and helpful. Thank you.
Thank you :)
Genuinely useful, and with one exception as i browsed, completely no strings! Thanks, some great stuff that will find a home here!
Thanks! These developers are great. Which one had strings?
I've had Spectral Compressor for a long time, I had no idea you could use it as a vocoder 😮
@@TheQxY And it sounds great too
I actually downloaded every single plug-in
@@2Dot_Productions Nice! did you like them?
seriously man your the only content creator that has found actual open source VSTs and not weird synths that cant tell me if its commercial use or royalty free
Thank you, I try to look for independent developers and not just any free plugin
Diva vs current...which one do you think I should get?
They are very different. Depends on what kind of sounds you want to make.
Nice review, thx, grabbed Spectral Compressor
@@alexdiakov_ambient Thank you! Glad you liked it and enjoy the plugin
Nice gems you found there! Also thanks for showing our QSynthi (: We did absolutely no promo for it so I'm wondering: How did you find our synth? 🤔
Found it on a Facebook group! Congrats on the great work :)
@@AlexReidStudios Crazy! Thanks (:
Cardinal seems very intresting but also difficult at the same time lol.. Any ideas of a tutorial of Cardial Alex?? Also grabbing Qsynthi!!!
Gotta play more with it, but I'd recommend Omri Cohen YT channel, it's about VCV but it's great to understand both
@@AlexReidStudios I'll check out the channel Alex... Also I really appreciate the fact that you reply to every single comment in every single video bud.. That's soo awesome🙃✨
@@PandoraExplorer57 hey thank you, I will do that as long as I manage :)
I've owned shaperbox 3 for a while, and I picked up infiltrator recently to do more sound design stuff. Do you think it's still worth Investing time into learning that free effects sequencer?
about half od these are excellent mainstays in my arsenal. really solid list, also that spectral compressor as a vocoder is brilliant
@@GillamtheGreatest It was Au5 idea honestly, it have some uses for color bass too. Which ones you use?
@@AlexReidStudios honestly i have all but the spectral compressor installed cause that one intimidates me a bit but i have a tab open to do it at some point. i think regency is my favorite/most used and i really like all the freakshow industry plugins as well
You're the most underrated music production youtuber. Your sub count is a travesty and just shows how broken the YT algorithm is. My only complaint is the way you pronounce "flanger". But as a monoliguistic simpleton myself, I have no grounds to critique you on your second (possibly more faik) language usage. 😄
@@TheCosmicTeapot Haha thank you a lot, and the channel is growing so I'm happy with that :). Yeah there are some words I haven't bothered to practice the original pronunctiation lol
Mooom... my plugin is on UA-cam!! I'm famous :> yayy
@@Beatsbasteln Remember me when you're at the top
@@AlexReidStudiosyour channel is growing faster than mine
This video has destroyed my weekend plans!!!
@@docjoesweeney Or made them better?
@@AlexReidStudios invader zim reference!
I did not know about Cardinal. Coooool. I love Voltage 2, but it is fantastic to see alternatives.
@@docjoesweeney Great thing is that Cardinal is 100% free. Voltage is great, but Cardinal has more than 1000 modules
Not only have you demonstrated excellent plugins - but you also take the time to very clearly explain each their functions/strengths, which is a large added gem! I have most of these that were shown. All plugins from Freakshow are... bizarre, to speak of - but ALL of them produce results that probably cannot easily be achieved with other plugins. My only problem with Cardinal (which I LOVE otherwise), is that with every new module added one cannot just upgrade the plugin - instead one must completely uninstall the earlier version before reinstalling the newer. One plugin that I knew of but didn't really think to be useful is Manta. But with your clear explanation and demonstration, has now convinced me to explore it properly. Thank you for that - and the excellent video. 🤘
Thank you so much for this comment :)! Glad you liked the video and my way of sharing stuff. I agree with Cardinal, nevertheless is an amazing alternative to VCV-
I really like Dash channel but you win this round by far. This video is packed! 🎉
Yoo thanks! But it's not a competition haha
lmao the same day as dash, who will win????
@@TildeSounds I show 10, he only shows 5. Jk jk, his selection is different and are also great plugins!
@@AlexReidStudios Yes I am awaiting a comment of his on this matter. Maybe his are twice as good? The competition is not yet decided. Only one can leave this arena alive.
@@TildeSoundsThese plugins are very unknown. Not what everyone else is putting out. I knew only three of them.
almost got all of them^^
Which ones you don't have?
@@AlexReidStudios qsynthi, did see it on other channels tho I own so many syntths (but yeh hehe fx too^^)
Okay, Cardinal is ultra-cool! But many of the module names don't give any clue about what the modules actually do. Does anyone have a recommendation on where to find a list of module descriptions? Maybe even loosely organized by function?
@@scottk3292 As far as I know you could go directly to VCV webpage as many of the modules are the same.
Haha. One reason I like Voltage is most modules have boring names. I am still going to check out Cardinal. Because weirdness and modular go hand in hand.
@@docjoesweeney Yeah, and with many module names similar to Left-Handed-Cat-Decoupler you kinda never know what results you'll get.
Bro, please tell me you didn't take lots of time to wade through all those thousands of free plugins to find the useful ones. I'd bet that in the same amount of time, you could learn Rust or C++ and write really good plugins yourself! (so why the hell do I waste time with video games?)
@@scottk3292 Loool hahha. No but really, went up to the last page in KVR in alphabetical order
QSynthi sounds so cool, will be grabbing it for sure.
@@mir-dr Have fun! It's very nice to explore it
Have fun with it! I would love to hear some Feedback about it! It may influence the version 2 that might be in development right now 👀
Cardinal looks sweet, thanks 👍🏻
@@The_Albanian_Syndicate Enjoy it! Best modular synth in plugin format imo
Have you used mSpectralDynamics? Spectral compressor here seems very similar. I'd be interested to know if there are specific differences between them.
I looks very deep and useful! A bit pricey but I guess it's worth it
why are you wearing a mask?
@@gamerturniton3081 Honestly because I like it. Although my newer mask is a half mask
@@AlexReidStudios people may have some interest in knowing what you look like though. EDIT: I like your videos BTW
Patching synths and sound design is a bit addictive. You feel like an explorer, or maybe both an artist and an engineer simultaneously. _...To boldly go where no oscillator has gone before!_ Therefore the Grid is for me! It's everything I enjoyed about Reaktor, but I like it better in spite of the fact that it is arguably less powerful than Reaktor due to having fewer low-level modules (which I never really grasped Reatkor well anyways). I do not expect you to answer every question you receive, but do you have any tips on hard-sync patching? I like the BITE module a lot, but I'm also wondering if there is a way to setup hard sync (or even soft sync) between ANY two oscillator sources. I haven't had much luck, and the "sync" modules only seem to force hard-sync to happen against a sawtooth wave instead of the follower's oscillator type. I also cannot find any presets that demonstrate hard-sync from scratch, nor any modules that have the low level logic (such as a phase-locked loop algorithm).
Hey thanks for this comment and yes, you can hard sync. Every oscillator has a trigger input, it's yellow with a small upwards arrow icon, top left. If you connect the output of an oscillator to it, you'll have sync. Hope that helps! :)
@@AlexReidStudios I got it to work, but after a few experiments I realized that I needed to have the master OSC output connected to a SYNC module and then connect the sync module to the trigger input of the follower OSC for this to work. This now will work with ANY form of oscillator -- tubular! Thank you very much! [edit] While I am enjoying this technique, it does have one critical flaw. It introduces a lot of aliasing in the upper registers. Prebuilt modules for sync do not seem to have this problem. Another solution for high notes is to set the ratio at a higher level (such as 2:1) and this also removes some of the aliasing (if you still wish to drive sync from scratch).
We don't need it. But I waaaaaaant it.
Drum Computer is awesome!
@@Nightowl427272 It's so fun
dude. u better change to clean and high quality mask.
@@eli_remas Working on that
I've come back to the Chroma with a new setup. I added an external touch-screen to the PC and the moved the Chroma VST to it.when playing... basically a virtual interface instead of midi cc set up. Its pretdamn awesome.
That sounds great! Have fun :)
