    Vital has amazing sounding filter and makes everything so smooth. For WT creation both work great but very diffrent. Vital has a lot more morphing features and i get very smooth amazing glitchy results very fast. With serum its all about the processing. I couldn't get amazing glitchy wavetables with serum altough it has a lot of amazing features. The only thing where i would recommend serum over vital is fm leads because the fm knob works smoother in serum in my opinion. Just i dont like serum filter so much for the leads. So i just use a diffrent filter. Both plugins have advanced unision control which can be really nice and useful for fm sounds. But base is also really good with serum. I really like how it sounds.

Bet it would be possible to do some absolutely filthy sorta industrial aggrotech vocals with that FM feature and the tuning the vocals down, I had no idea about the FM feature from the website. Sounds like it'd be very useful for a wide variety of genres to more industrial sounding stuff, vocoder stuff for EDM, even crazy vocal effects for hyper pop and modern urban music etc, and downright experimental glitchy stuff and feeding it other sound sources. 💛

    Oh, for God's sake, it all depends on your needs and preferences. If your goal is to create music, i.e. move forward and not stuck tweaking, you absolutely have to be limited! That's why I would not recomment Pigments / Phase Plant. Actally, even Serum may be a bit too much, but I think is the best balanced synth among those you've mentioned. Also, Serum's filters are great (U-He's level of greatness). PS: why no one ever bothers about memory foot print? It is about time it take to load/open a plugin which you do many times, and it is just a sign of a well-thought piece of software (shout out to U-He once again). Absolutely hate when you load a synth which takes 1gb+ of RAM. How the hell a very versatile Zebra2 takes only 30 Mb in memory while Vital is taking 1gb?? Btw Serum takes "only" 300 Mb and is the winner among the mentioned in the video synths.

    • @BlackMarvin
      @BlackMarvin 4 місяці тому

      Hey! I have to disagree with Serum's filters. They are great but I would say the U-He ones have a an extra something, hard to describe. In your definition, is memory footprint the same as the CPU effort it requires to run or it's specifically related to load/open? I own Colour Copy and Diva from U-He. They sound gorgeous and rich but they are amongst the heaviest. Vital is surprisingly heavy as well. In the end, you are right, it all depends on your preference. I personally use them all, but for different tasks and different vibes.

    • @BlackMarvin

      Hey Blindcoyote! Usually a good trick to get the correct folder for these is to go inside Phase Plant (or SH or MP) and open the convolver, you should see the directory written in grey and if you click on it it will open the correct placement for these presets. You can then copy the folder at this location and reboot the d.a.w. just to be sure.

    Although this is an older video, I would like to share my thoughts on these synths. Serum: I started with this one. I struggled to understand what made a patch 'work' despite being able to create cool sounds by following guides or looking at presets. Although the UI is an improvement over older plugins, the matrix was hidden away on another tab and the modulation process was clunky compared to modern plugins. This discouraged me from learning more about it, and I mostly created simple, even barebones patches. I found it difficult to engage with the central aspects of sound design due to some details, such as the envelopes not scaling well with durations or the finickiness of LFOs. Overall, I do not believe this is the best option for beginners. Personally, I found experimentation to be challenging. Pigments: This was my next synth. Its excellent UI and intuitive drag-and-drop system unlocked the 'hidden knowledge'. The deciding factor was being able to see everything on one page and how it interacts with each other, trying out different things, switching modulation sources, and having access to the different engines. It may not have the same level of complexity as Serum or Phaseplant, but that is precisely why I believe it is the ideal synthesizer for beginners. It hides away its complexity until required and it does it much more elegantly than Serum. Pigments was the synth that got me into reconstructing sounds I heard and liked. However, I always struggled to accurately reproduce certain sounds. I also felt Pigments was missing "depth" in its engines. I honestly never liked the sound of it, especially compared to things like Diva or Dune. So while I think it's the perfect synth to start out with I also think, once you are more comfortable with sounddesign you should start looking elsewhere. Pigments was necessary for me to truly get into synths, but I rarely use it nowadays. Ironically I started using Serum more, now that I am more comfortable with navigating and using synths. I'll skip Vital, cause I haven't played with it much. Phaseplant: While I don't have it, I know it is THE synth. I have Snapheap and how the UI handles is perfect. While certainly overwhelming for a beginner, as an intermediate it is perfect. You can modulate everything, drag-and-drop and rearrange, so experimentation comes incredibly easy and it is probably the gateway drug into modular synths. I don't know about its sound quality, but I'm sure it's in the same ballpark as other industry standard synths. If I could start anew, I'd start with Vital (cause it's free) and Pigments as my first payed plugin. I might even skip serum completely and go straight to phaseplant. After that I'd probably get specific plugins for specific usecases, like Diva for that analog crunch or UVI Falcon for that modulation maddness.

    • @BlackMarvin
      @BlackMarvin 5 місяців тому

      Nice! I enjoyed reading your feedback and I resonate with it. I think your perception of these synths is pretty accurate (in my opinion). I think what makes Serum a bit beginner friendly is the fact that it has so many resources available both in forms of tutorials and presets but it's true that if that wasn't the case it would be very different. I like the way you describe that Pigments hide its complexity really well and same I also share the feeling for the engine. And yes, Phase Plant is THE synth. Have you seen the new Shaper plugin they added last week?

Wavetable distortion is such a wild concept I never even considered and I am having lots of fun with it. And when paired with Snapheap/Multipass/Phase plant it is incredible.

      From lightest to heaviest : Serum, Phase Plant, Vital, Pigments. BUT it can vary depending on the pacthes loaded. Those are the results when netural/idling but it also feels that way when they are opened. I would say Phase Plant will also vary on what's inside the presets, you can build a very very heavy patch on Phase Plant. But in general it's fairly light.

      hey! I'm glad you enjoyed the comparison. There's a couple of great analog emulations that I like. Here are some recommendations : Free : Surrealistic MG-1, OB-XD. Paid : BA-1 (really like this one lately), Kniforium, bx_oberhousen.

    Anyone know how to get around the limitations of only having 3 insert FX lanes? 32 potential sound generator/sources, which is unreal… but I’m forced to funnel them through only three insert FX channels??? 🤷‍♂️ Am I missing something…

    • @BlackMarvin
      @BlackMarvin 5 місяців тому

      A short answer would be : Snap Heap. You can potentially get infinite lanes, the only limitation would be the CPU performance really.

    • @ghfjfghjasdfasdf

      Thanks, but already thought about that and Multipass… can’t route any modulation from inside Phaseplant into snapheap if it’s in an fx lane. If CCs could be routed to CCs in whatever fx were setup in the fx lanes, then it would be insanely modular.

      ​@@ghfjfghjasdfasdf if inside your Snap heap unit you route a macro, it then appears as a modulatable unit inside Phase Plant. If you want to move something inside Snap heap with a Phase Plant LFO, just make sure you create a Snap Heap macro. Hopefully I understood correctly what you meant.

    • @ghfjfghjasdfasdf
      @ghfjfghjasdfasdf 5 місяців тому

      Yeah, the macros are an option for sure… I meant a 1to1 CC to CC solution, but the macro option is powerful and better than nothing.

      just to be clear xD any other synth on the market only has 1 fx lane. at least you get 3. and as mentioned snap heap makes fx lane inception

    42:02. from a pro perspective. but.. you only spoke about the FREE version ... did you really try. the PRO version of Vital that cost $80 ? ... so this entire video is unclear... did you. use the free Vital ? or ? the PRO version ?

    • @BlackMarvin
      @BlackMarvin 6 місяців тому

      I own and use the pro version. But you should know that there is absolutely no difference in the synth between free and pro. What you get with the pro is more wavetables and more presets but the synth itself is 100% the same tool. I ended getting pro 2 years ago just so I could get the new update faster. Hope that helps clarifying things for you ;)

    'Xfer' is pronounced 'Transfer'. It's amazing how many "pros" are unaware of this. I laugh every time I hear 'EX-fer'. 🤣

      It's the first time I've heard it that way. I could swear I've heard Steve pronounce it Ex-fer but...maybe I'm wrong.

    KHZ should create a place where everyone can share their custom filters and wavetables, and access this public data directly from their plugins/PhasePlant. The real power of the KHZ ecosystem lies within the community.
