I just want to say man you are my favorite youtuber synthesis music content creator. I been watching so many people over the last 6 years many who i stopped following. You just stand out as just chill, not promoting or pushing products and you get deep into music creation knowledge. So I appreciate you. I learnt most of my pro3 from you !! It’s a synth I would never sell. Peace!!
A few weeks ago, I had no intention of buying another hardware synth after being pretty happy in the software / VST world for years now. My friend sent me this video randomly -- the patch you made blew my mind. What a crazy analog/digital hybrid synth! As a Virus A owner, this synth's characteristics spoke to me. I pretty much went on a journey looking at the different hardware synths out there, just for fun. I kept coming back to watching Pro 3 videos. Drawing comparisons to other synths (Like the MatrixBrute, for example). Pro 3 kept winning my interest. Slowly I got the urge to buy one. And then I did! I credit this video and the amazing job you did showing what a broad range of sounds this synthesizer is capable of. An incredible, unintentional performance emerged out of an innocent envelope tutorial video. Well played man. You sold a synth! Thank you.
Wow. short rant coming up: I remember watching this a couple of years ago right before buying my first synth. atm this hidden gem of a video only got 55k views. - But still! 55k people have been blessed with this perfect introduction to sounddesign. its been 2 years since I bought the Moog Grandmother and short time after the Matriarch. Now my room is filled with synths, compressors and modules and a diploma in electronic music. I must give you a huge thanks, Ricky. Thanks for helping me choose the right path. My life has changed drastically for the better and your videos was part of my guidance. sorry for getting personal.. but man I loved this video!
single inverted envelope on the filter would work just fine, attack would be your initial short pluck and decay the "come back" of the sound. Set range using cutoff and amount. Muss less hassle and more straight forward to use.
Please do more of these with the Pro 3. Your first video review was like an album created on the fly. I’m thinking this may become my next instrument. Such a deep and rich synth. You clearly connected with it straight away.
I confess I did not get the appeal of the sound you were driving towards until you brought in the verb and started doing the Vangelis keyboard routine. Then I was like damn, dude could hear that waiting to happen, sick.
Something I really like about Ricky is that when you say something that's nonsense, you'll acknowledge and correct it instead of styling it out. Realness. I'm trying to learn FM on my RefaceDX (which only has one envelope) so the audio tutorials are also PD awesome of course, so thank you.
@@TheGrelots You are correct! It’s one envelope per op and of course if you use e.g. a two into two algorithm you could probably produce something like the sound being done here. I should have a crack at getting as close as I can. My brain was for some reason thinking of two algorithms working together to create that delay. Thanks for the correction/reminder!
you can definitely achieve that one the reface dx as i've gotten something close! the interplay between the envelopes one of its strong suits actually! happy sound designing!
@@Justin-TPG From my experience programming on the dx7 and sy77, you'll more often use the algorithms with multiple stacks than those that look complex. Don't know how far you are into fm but I'll ramble for a few paragraphs if you don't mind. I like to start by build the main tones kind of like choosing your oscillators first on a substractive synth. Single stacks are usefull either when you take an additive approach like on most preset e-pianos or when you need a sine wave (of course) I like to put them at a ratio of one and detune them to get a thicker fundamental or use two detuned sines as sub oscillators but that can feel a bit wastefull in a lot of patches. Double stacks are the bread and butter, you can make pretty much any harmonic series with them so you can have the classic analog shapes as well as much more. Three stack allow you to thicken the basic wave shape, they add harmonics above and below the harmonics from the basic 2 stack, 3 stack harmonics can be out of tune with the fundamental so you can get in harsh territory. h stacks are boring and only to be used when you don't have enough oscillators Y stacks are pretty cool and unique, first they let you save space by adding two harmonic series to one carrier but the cool part is that they let you do percussive sounds by setting one of the modulators with fast att and decay, better if it has feed back. Then, I attack the enveloppes, yes pun intended. The enveloppe on the carrier is like the amp enveloppe, as you realized you can achieve the same effect as ricky by having different enveloppes on each stacks. The ones on the modulators can wear a lot more hats, I like to think of them as filter or pulsewidth enveloppes. They change the timbre over time, they can make pads that evolve in an intersting way as well as many other things. this the meat of fm, how the modulation amount changes in relation to time, velocity, aftertouch and many other things.
Thanks Mr. M - this was a fun one. I like seeing you get out of your wheelhouse a little bit. You're enthusiasm really shows. I think I'd like to have a Pro 3 one day.
I haven't tuned into your videos in a good while and since I've been checking out a lot of interesting synth videos recently the algorithm gods brought me back and I'm so glad they did. This was such an experience. Always love what you do. I'm gonna have to do some catching up on your videos. Great work man!
For those learning about envelopes, the app KQ Dixie (an FM synth) has a beautiful representation of ADSR in action. And if you’re bummed by the lack of presets, it can load any Yamaha DX7 patch!
@@94luv520 get better at the keys and create atleast 4 different sections in your music. The only ones who don’t make it in music are the ones who quit.
If you started with an opened up filter and applied negative envelope amount you could create the attack dip then swell using 1 ADSR envelope instead of 2 envelopes and using delay.
Learnt an incredible amount from this video even though I don't own any physical synths yet I've learnt stuff I've been able to apply in Ableton and VST synths
Watched this video many tames before, and today finally I bought pro 3 as a companion to my Take 5. and now I watch this video again as an owner of pro 3).
Amazing sound design tool this, going in the future wishlist for sure would probably take a good few weeks to get how it works but the potential is limitless here.
problem with such long release and reverb is your melody needs to be build around it or you get weird harmonics. This can be well intended to be used to good effect, not the least because it's natural in any vibrating instrument, and ... I don't know what it's called in psycho accoustic, you get a contrast across notes anyway, like after images. The layered sound can still drown out the intended overtones I suppose, but you were going for a noisy pad anyway. Nicely done. Wait a second 18:38 remember Dr. Dre was sued by Lucas for copying the dolby surround trade mark sound logo 19:05 my goodness, a Spaceship entering a wormhole, is it. You'll enjoy the demoscene productions by Quiet, a lot.
I really dig your approach and videos.

Love it. Any chance you saved the patch and would like to share it? :) More Pro3 videos, please. I really like how you feel your way through sound creation.
Sweet looking headphones. Are those Rosson RAD-0s? Are they good? Good for music production? And I made it all the way through thinking "I don't need this synth", then you did that thing at the end. Gaah!
@Ricky Tinez almost 1.5 years since this video.. How are you liking the Pro 3? Is it still all you hoped it would be? Just as good, better or what have you discovered after using it for some time?

for sure!

Now i realize that my OB-6 is crap and build like crap. Does PRO3 have a kind of DAW integration?
Ricky - If I'm sending midi clock to the Pro 3 will the Aux Envelope Dly switch to 1/4, 1/8, or 1/16th notes etc? so it locks in time with the track?
Goddamn! I loved that sound at the very end!
any chance you can let that last Csharp sound be available as a sample, its totally bonkers makes me feel like a kid man, please)))))))))
