Ive had my Deluge since 2019, and it just keeps growing in capability. I love multisample instruments on it, as well as sound design and sequencing. It still feels like i barely use anywhere near its full potential
Thanks for the comment. I totally agree....I know I'm just scratching the surface, especially when it comes to the new Community Firmware. So many great improvements, and loads of interesting features that I'm not fully up to speed with yet.
One of the issues, is that some of the sounds I'm featuring come from other producers of sample packs, but you're right, it could be an idea for me to consider in the future. I have created a load of patches using other gear.......
All over the place. Some of the samples are from my personal library, but many are from any of the many drum machines I've liked over the decades...............
Hey Rhys, thanks for watching and commenting.......Yeah, this little box is still keeping me inspired....................best of the new year to you......................
Insane Sound bank. This inspired me to start multisampling again. Only thing is the way you edited these sounds after and technique seems really really good. The way you freaked em out is amazing. I would pay good money for any sound pack you made.
I guess I'll have to give a Sample Pack some serious thought. Sadly, my Deluge died, and it's been out for repair for almost 2 months. A real bummer, and quite expensive as well. Still hoping for some insights from Rohan and Ian @ Synthstrom.
@@willswitchcraft That would be fantastic! Sad to hear your Deluge died though. Always sucks when one can't use an instrument that you're really jiving with. Luckily repairs are cheaper than a new device. Hope it gets back to your soon. Cheers!
Top video Will. I was delighted to see another post from you. The Deluge is really an amazing little box. Music creation has come far in the time I’ve been alive. (looking forward to where it’s heading.) Glad they opened up the software. Excellent demo. Always great work from a passionate guy. 🙏🏻
That velocity grid array is pretty dope. The Deluge is such a beast. I grabbed one, but just learning the ropes. I’d like to try sampling from various instruments into the Deluge. I’ll take a look through your history to see if you have any tutorials on that. I’d like to sample from sources that have effects turned on. I’m interested in various instrument and synth sounds, some with an ambient slant. Do you use the kit maker tool?
It's pretty simple, mainly because the Deluge AUTOMATICALLY looks at Mutisamples in a folder, and figures out which ones are what notes...You don't even need to name them properly......You can see a quick over in this video - start about 4:00: ua-cam.com/video/Zmpm7LZPhfk/v-deo.htmlsi=TuL8Ox6b5bO1MY4o
Record around ten different notes in a good spread across the instrument. Make them individual wav files in a folder. Load the folder onto Deluge sd card. Now make a new synth clip, hold an audition pad (furthest right) and press Load - bottom-top will display. Click the selection knob, navigate to your multisamples folder, choose the new one and hit the selection knob. You don't need every single note of the keyboard because Deluge interpolates between them and fills in the whole chromatic range.
Thanks, any tips welcome. At the moment I am thinking of using the multisample function of NI Maschine or Logic Pro and then transfer the files somehow to the Deluge SD card but I am worried it will be a rather tedious task 🙂@@willswitchcraft
Thank you very much for your insight view into the Deluge. It seems to be an "egg-laying jack of all trades" (this is what I found for the German word "eierlegende Wollmilchsau" 😉). What still is confusing to me is the pure amount of keys/pads. I guess you need spider-like fingers to play the pads. When I sometimes use the pads of my Hydrasynth Desktop (very rarely) it´s hard for me to find the "right" pad ("right" = has to sound in tune). On a normal keyboard the lower keys are on the left, the higher keys are on the right. To map the white and the black keys onto the Deluge pads ... I guess that's too much for me 🤭. But nevertheless, an impressive presentation ... again, thank you 👍.
Glad you like what I'm doing........I'm sure you'll have a great adventure filling your own SD card. It's so great to be able to totally customize a piece of gear to suit your needs.....

A« special Will’s samples pack » would have been a pleasure😄. Very good overview of this great machine

Great demo Will, I knew nothing about these gadgets. Thanks.
awesome.....this video is made just for you (ok, well also for others like you)
Thanks for sharing Will. You have a great collection of samples. I particularly like your drum and percussion samples
Thanks.....yeah, I used to be a drummer, so I'm always looking for interesting perc. sounds
@@willswitchcraft amazing sounds! where did you get your samples?
All over the place. Some of the samples are from my personal library, but many are from any of the many drum machines I've liked over the decades...............
Thanks Will, I didn't know much about this unique instrument.
Trying to change that................thanks for watching
Great overview Will. I love seeing what the Deluge has turned into over the years!

@@willswitchcraft same to you buddy 😊
Great walkthrough! Thank you.

thanks....a couple of other people have suggested that I put together a soundbank.....food for thought....thanks for watching.........
@@willswitchcraftI second this! I would love a multisample pack from you. So many unique and inspiring sounds!

Thanks for this great video. Any tips on what's the best approach to getting multisamples into the deluge?

thanks for the comment - I'm thinking of doing a whole video on this, as I have some cool little tricks up my sleeve to share.....

I guess these 'isomorphic' keyboards/pads take a bit of getting used to......thanks for watching
You can play Deluge synths via a midi keyboard.
@@girlinagale Thank you for your hint 👍
which is what I'm doing around 28:00
can i get your SD card please! :D
you have some amazing sounds!
Glad you like what I'm doing........I'm sure you'll have a great adventure filling your own SD card. It's so great to be able to totally customize a piece of gear to suit your needs.....
@@willswitchcraftthat is so true... Could you please explain to us how you multi-sampled OmniSphere?
