    As a 60 *cough cough* year old skint bass player I've recently got into home recording and am getting to grips with the wonderful world of DAWs. I've downloaded a few free/cheap synths and have spent many happy hours sifting through the presets without the faintest idea of how they worked. I wouldn't know an LFO from a UFO. I've tried tweaking knobs and buttons with zero success and watched numerous YT vids that left me more confused than ever. Then YT pointed me in your direction.
    I am therefore eternally grateful to you for 1) introducing me to Vital and 2) explaining in clear, concise and logical terms, not only how Vital works but also simultaneuosly the basics of synthesis and which bit does what to which. Within 5 minutes I'd come up with my first, admittedly very basic, synth pad - it was like discovering as a 5 year old that I could ride a bike without stabilisers - revelatory.
    Thank you so much for your tutelage. Instantly subbed and I will now begin trawling your archive. Cheers!

      Reminds me of that Calvin Harris song lyric....Pushing knobs pushing faders but I don't know what they do . I agree though, I know have a rough idea of what things do! Had no idea you could link each thing together like that. I assume if you actually know what you are doing, you could create an entire song from scratch all in this synth with no samples or anything. Any sound can likely be achieved with the know-how or enough messing!

      I'd also recommend getting into orchestration with virtual sample libraries. It is a whole lot of fun, once you know how to arrange music(voice leading, counterpoint, and spacing rules, etc) and orchestral textures. It can really add a whole new dimension to a composer/musician.

      Sort of the same for me. I was watching one of Michael's sound design videos, where he first started playing around with, and explaining Serum. But I don't have the money to fork over right now, so I wound up finding Graphite, which I struggled to figure out, and which just didn't feel right for me. On top of that, when I saved my first preset it didn't save 90% of what I had setup, which was disheartening.
      Today I was looking for a tutorial for Graphite when I saw someone mention Vital, so I figured I'd cough up my email address and go ahead and get it. Then, when I went to search for a Vital tutorial so I could learn it, the first video in the list was this one! It was that moment I knew I was on the right track. And he explains it so well!:)

  • @SpeccyMan
    @SpeccyMan 3 роки тому +349

    It's worth pointing out that not all the modulation sources are displayed on an initial preset setting. There are, in fact, 6 envelopes, 8 LFOs and 4 randoms available to you. They become available as you use up those initially displayed so after assigning (say LFO4) you will find an LFO5 available to you, and so on.

      You can import wavetables into Vital from other wt synths like Serum, Phase Plant, Pigments, etc. I have imported them all into Vital and they sound great. But don't dismiss Vital's own or it's overall sound until you have fully explored the synth. Also, Vital's own wavetables are also great.

      But Vital already is a better Serum and I say it as a long time Serum user that knows it in and out.

    Bought the 25 $ version because I want to make sounds from scratch (don't care so much for presets, all though they are really good), had it for roughly 4 hours and... Wow! The interface is so clear and logical, the workflow is intuitive (if you have experience with synths, of course) and inspiring sounds are a breeze to make. I'm barely scratching the surface, there is so much potential here, losing hours modulating the modulators, adding randomisation to anything... This synth has reignited my love of sound design, it really is that good! Please support this project financially if you can, Matt Tytel absolutely deserves it. I kind of regret not paying 80$ now...

    tbh, I am loving Vital so far... but it's going to take me a while for me to move from serum to vital. but so far, I love it, my CPU loves it... and the UI may be a little weird to navigate at the moment, but I am sure that as time goes on, as more people try it, and as more updates come out, Vital will take Serum's place as the "king of wavetable synthesizers". Micheal, please tell Mr. Tytel that we all thank him for the dedication he has put into this synthesizer.

    Very good tutorial! One of the small advanced features I found very useful is the 'Stereo' modulator (next to the performance settings tabs). One can drag this over any control, and upon doing so, that control can have different values for the left and right channel (the difference is adjustable, of course!). This allows us to create wider sounds in a very different way than usual and I think that is really cool!

      for the most part the fundamentals of sound design are the same across most interfaces, the smartest thing you can do in this aspect is apply what you learn regardless of which vst's knobs you turn. Tutorials can be inspiring and educational, but in the long run following them entirely just shuts down the endless avenues you'd otherwise find yourself exploring. stay creative!

That's not quite MPE but still very interactive and feels like using an inspiring hardware synth.

    Could you ask the Vital developers to fix the visual glitch in Helm? I recently downloaded it, and the interface of the plugin was a mess (literally, not that I feel lost or so). While searching for a solution on google I found out I wasn't the only one with this problem. Turned out I have to go to my settings and set the Windows OS scaling to 100% (instead of 125%, which is the default setting). But as you can imagine, that is really, really, really annoying since everything looks so small.
    I heard this plugin was dope, so I hope I will be able to use it properly ;-)
