The winrar approach to a free trial, commendable!
I've just fed it a chopped up funky drummer break mapped across each of the 8 hits and it's actually coming back at me with this muted interpretation which you can really start to mangle into new territories. Addictive af.
"I don't need any more plugins" ...then stuff like this comes up :D
😅 I'm the same way!! 😅
I’m makin a list of plugins to get and this is diffffff I’m thinkin bout coppin😂💯
OMG, I'm starting to get VST guilt as there is no way in 1000 lifetimes I could do my sound potential justice, I think I'm going to cry....😭
riiiight
Lol you don’t know how many times I said that!
Yeah this plugin is incredible. Shoutout to the developers for being so generous with the demo!
I think virtual riot would have a field day with this plugin
Yeah. It sounds like a cool Color Bass tool
holy shit. i was sitting here like "fuuuuuuuuck" all the time from how well designed the macros in this plugin are
My immediate reaction is to try throwing samples at it that aren't drums. Like what horrible noises can I get out of it with vocals, loops, etc.
Yup I'm throwing synth shots and chord stabs and it's awesome
Us too ;)
Exactly
Same
Eliminate has entered the chat…
This got recommended to me because one of my friends is an aspiring DnB producer and I've watched some music production videos, and I'm so glad that it did - Your video not only helped him, but I listened to your track Cinders and it's absolutely mind-blowing. I haven't felt this excited about a track in a long time. I'm going to listen to it on loop for two weeks, lmao. Please keep making more music!
Cool thing .. sounds and operates like a modular synth.
Morphing can be quite handy.
On the surface it looks like an ordinary drum plugin but its the most addictive and creative drum plugin I've used so far because of the mangling features, wish it would save samples into categories automatically and maybe have a quick sample browser, a few niggles here and there but its a great plugin.
Think I may have a problem. All I initially saw were the words opiates and morphine😬
Will try it out thanks
what a sick sound design tool. thanks for sharing
truly insane, thanks for showing me this
Wow, thanks for showing us this, and eh how cool of these peeps to provide such a good demo version, I hope people who appreciate it buy it....and that they keep updating it, this thing could be legendary....
This tool will def be on my list of the best plugins for sound design. It's amazing!!!
Wow, looks like such a powerful tool for getting just the right sample sounds
This is such a cool plugin, crazy for morphing stuff and resynthesizing stuff
Love the openess of the demo, but this was an instant purchase for me. Loving this tool so far
What a great plugin! I want.
super cool vst, and also. great, informative and concise review! thx!
this is my first time I watch your video, and i hit the subs button after. Keep it up man!
I've literally been waiting for a plugin exactly like this that morphs 2 sounds together. Drums would be fun to mess with and create new drums, but I can't wait to make my own instrument one shots. This is so simplistic yet incredible.
wow, didn't expect this to be this good, thanks for bringing it up!
Thanks for sharing! 🫡
Cant wait to try this
this plugin looks absolutely incredible. was just in the mood to start mucking about with some IDM over the weekend and this pops up. the universe is speaking to me lol.
Synplant, Beatwave RANDOM and this live in the same space of my plugin corner now. Nice! 😎
The fact you can use it in perpetual demo mode is amazing
it''s like reaper. which i finally bought after years of using in demo mode, albeit solely for my own tinkering, no work..
4:01 Polyphony: To describe how this works, when set to 1 it will only allow one voice to be played at any given time. For example, say you had a long 808 sample and pressed a key to trigger the playback, then pressed a second key before the playback had finished from the first key press - the playback from the first key press would immediately stop when pressing the second key to allow for the playback from the second key press to occur, because if polyphony is set to 1 then only one voice can occur at any given time. If polyphony is set to 2, you could press that second key and it would not stop the playback from the first key press because you can now have 2 voices play at any given time. When polyphony is set to 2, if you were to press a third key before the playback from the first two key presses had finished, the playback from your first key press would be stopped to allow the newly pressed third key's playback (voice).
Tl;dr polyphony determines how many voices can playback at any given time.
Holy guac that is awesome.
Holy Molly 😍 This is insane!!!
This is amazing, especially for bedroom guitarists!
This looks sick
wild. It's so good.
You could make some mind bending fills with this bad boy
this is nuts
Looks pretty crazy
Great overview…. I finally got it installed and I’m using it as morphing monophonic synth, I hope they bring out a synth with this tech’, I love malleable sound mangling. ( I was using Ableton, I put a scaler, from the midi effects before the VISCO plugin to ensure it plays the sound regardless of the keys 🎹 you play from your midi controller. Then on another midi instrument track I put a M4L expression control with Midi in set to ‘ Key Track ‘ , and the assign the parameter for that row to the ‘ Global Frequency ‘ parameter on the VISCO configure panel. So with both tracks midi input armed, the triggered sound will now play the sound chromatically. So it’s basically a Morphing Monosynth . There is a polyphony of up to 4 notes in each sounds , but only seems to work for arpeggios with overtones , rather than sustained chords .
That’s dope!!
The visualizer is exactly what I see in my mind during synesthesia
Its really good. Been dropping in my own samples, manipulating them then resampling them. I will end up buying it but ive been able to do this on just the demo.
I bought it after one day. Knew it would Be worth it
how do you add your own samples? i've tried but it doesnt work for me
@@afrosymphony8207 I can say that it doesnt work in Logic Pro. i checked. i can confirm that it works in Bitwig, Ableton and Fl studio. May be a limitation of your DAW.
@@afrosymphony8207 Start with, say sound 1, go to the drop down menu left of the crossfader, click 'fit to audio file' and select a sample
“Shout out to manuals, read the fucking manual”
I spit my drink out! That had me rolling! 😅
At least you didn’t fall off your chair or wake your house up laughing like everyone else says they do
@@TayWoode yeah who the fuck rolls on the floor
@@SeabornProductions same ones that say they almost choked laughing, can’t breathe for laughing, stomach hurts from laughing, died laughing, almost wet themselves laughing, frightened their dog/cat laughing etc 🤷🏾♂️
I had to google 'Manual', oopsy! 😅
They're really good.....
@@TayWoode I’ll bet my left nut they never even laughed.
sick
looks interesting
Thanks
love that length modulation at 6:43 oooeeee!
That is crazy
Gotta try this with melodic stuff and sequence some cool phrases wow
Holy shit. I don’t even know how to make music or write it but I can tell that the capabilities of this is actually insane
I like it. Boss.
🔥🔥🔥
I messaged you on Instagram btw :)
Bruh this is insaane...oh that randomizer function is icing on a very delicious cake
Interesting plugin
Expressive timbral change modulation. We needed this.
Fire
top tip your monitor level in ableton's bottom right can be changed so your sample previews are played at unity gain. max of +6 sown there = 0db in the daw. makes comparisons far easier.
That's pretty cool! But it's confusing that X is frequency and Y is time. Most plugins I know have frequency on the y axis (higher notes are higher positioned) and time on the x axis (like the playhead in most DAWs, or spectrum visualisations, or even in a music player, where the time slider is horizontal), so the meaning of X and Y axis does feel flipped. I'd buy the plugin, if you could flip the X and Y axis in the settings. Would make more sense to me, to have X as time axis and Y as frequency axis.
Even the sequencer of the plugin has time going from left to right (horizontally on the x axis!) xD
Think of it like an eq I guess where freq is on X axis
@@kevinkearney3836 In a EQ it works, because you're setting volume (primary information) along your frequencies (secondary information). Just like in most other plugins you go along your secondary axis (X) to set your primary value (Y). And an audio sample is for me frequency information across time - and not the other way around.
Think of it as a frequency waterfall curve which you see in acoustic measurements
3:30 Tip of the all tips! That carries you far in anything! xD Great video!
This is great for taking stems of major artists songs and make your own sound out of them
mind blown! :D
looks amazing thanks a lot
Reminds me of soniccharge plugins. taking it to the next level
this is cool -
Damn thats really interesting. Kind of reminds me off the LXR02 by Erica Synths where you can make 2 sets of digital FM drum sets and morph between then over like 100 steps.
But this goes a bit deeper for sure.
Reminds me a bit of the Hartmann Neuron synth of 2002. That also did some weird latent space stuff with analyzed samples (not limited to drums though)
Perfect for IDM. Sounds like you could get some Autechre sounding beats easy using random.
the sound shaping parameter seems very similar to the morph slider in microtonic
devs have recently really been cooking up insane plugins recently, this is crazy
just tried it holy shit this is good for synthesis, feels like turning sound into clay you can use your hands to play with
This looks insane. I'm a broke student and I wish one day I could afford this beast, the things it can do would really improve my drum design and maybe synth design as well
You can use demo and it will work perfectly.
"Without a valid license, Visco operates in demo mode. The demo version provides full functionality, albeit with periodic prompts encouraging users to upgrade."
Yeah man, it's the internet. Things like that are free, you don't need to wait at all. Just search.
wish they had an ipad app, seems like this would lend itself nicely to a touch interface
4:20 almost went DnB for a sec there.
In demo mode, each time that you close its window, the time that you'll have to wait before you'll be able to use it again, will increase. Soon, you'll be waiting a long time and it will become a major hindrance to work flow.
It resets when you relaunch your DAW. But imo this is a plugin worth supporting!
@@UndulaeMusic So it does. I'll leave my original comment just in case anyone thinks the same as I did.
Whoaaa 😮😊
Im on still on Windows 7 making progressive metal/vaporwave/collage music and this plugin is PERFECT. I hope it works on Win7 lmao
I needed something for drum edits.
I make similar sounds with manipulating audio and it takes ages. This will speed things up a bit!
Not only is this a fantastic plugin but it's less than a mere 3MB in size.
Buy it
I have
Now I’m gonna go home and get this lol
Amazing plugin. Thanks for sharing. What headphones are you using by the way?
Neumann NDH-30. Love em
what i would like to know is are the 8 tracks correspondent to midi notes so i could use a different sequencer or piano roll? and also if you can modulate the parameters not just inside the plugin but with different lfos and automations in the daw?
The latter should at least be possible with Bitwig, probably other DAWs as well. Not sure about the sequencer, gonna check it out in a few hours. Would be fun to combine this with Pigments sequencer if possible.
Alright gave it a bit of a try and so far my findings are:
- The global parameters (Transform Timescale Frequence Contrast Density and the topright sliders in the modulate menu) can be automated outside of the plugin, everything else is not. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong though.
Edit: The track parameters in the mix module can also be externally automated. The send and main FX panel not, it seems like.
- The Pigments sequencer works great on this plugin so I assume other sequencers might work as well. I did have to create a second visco and pigments instance to make multiple sounds play at the same time, but I'm not all that familiar with Bitwig yet so there might be a better way to do that.
Yes, all the major ones you mentioned can be hooked up to midi controllers etc
Is this basically an under-the-hood version of the synplant plugin but arranged as a drum machine? If yes, that's fantastic. Take any drum sample and get an instant synthetic clone... that's just amazing. If it can up the quality of its generative interpretation of each sound that'd be awesome.
Yeah, although this and Synplant use two completely different types of synth engine
wish i could drag the resulting samples out-- that would be game changing
I couldn't find anything in the PDF manual regarding MIDI control of any parameters besides velocity. I haven't downloaded the demo but I first judge a product by what I glean from documentation. The PDF shows a scaler window but doesn't talk about it though it does show mod wheel as a selection.
Yup, seems insane enough.
this is great! question - when i export the midi i wish i could pull the sounds in the preset into a drum rack or something to manipulate them individually using other processing, is there a way to do this?
You can send out audio individually from each track to new tracks in your DAW and process them individually. Alternatively, you could render out individual samples using resampling and load those into a drum rack
It is pitch sensitive via midi? I'm curious about what can be done with tonal samples
It's been pretty decent with tonal samples. Ive been keeping everything in the same key and it's worked out. Some samples like low chords sound shitty tho
Awesome! Can we also map the output of each “track” to different channels?
looks like you can!
Yes it has multiple oute
Holy smokes… this plus Bitwig LFOs mangling the parameters… 🤯
I think the developer was an Ableton guy.
This thing is amazing on kicks.
8:20 onward was literally Hitman: Blood Money! Add some strings, war drums and a choir - it’s spot on 😂
2:35 not to mention you can automate any of those parameters
This looks awesome.....
Q. Can it be used with other seqeuncers or just the in-built one?
You can use external sequencers as it receives midi data
@@UndulaeMusic - Thanks mate...
New to your channel... Just sub'd.
I have wanted this for over a decade.
I hope i can use my own sequencer to automate the parameters ?
Yeah, you can sequence externally, and we have a very liberal demo on our homepage to try it out before too!
@@Forever-89-Studio oh, so good, ty !
@@bontempo1271 Have fun :)
Dope, I def don’t need another plug-in…maybe after a year wit live 12 😂 thanks boss
this and other lies i tell myself
Cool sound design tool though the quality of the audio isn't quite up there yet.
Maybe the most exciting software drum synth I've encountered. Assume it is still on "pre-order" which cost 99 bucks. No brainer for me.
Sequencer is one bar
This + Synplant 2
Nice those people who think out off the usual boxes and come up to this
Can you automate the movement between the two samples over a period of time
Yes, with midi controllers, envelopes, lfos etc
the plugin looks like that online tier list maker
holy shit
