    I was really having trouble visualizing just what wave tables were and what they do until I watched you design your own! Thanks for the interesting guide. I really liked hearing the results at every stage as you built it up. A very interesting sound, almost a song in itself.

    I have Serum, and I like it - but I don't LOVE it like I'm starting to love Vital. Maybe it's only visual though, as they both sound excellent. Also, I really like that I get that 3rd wavetable.

    • @s1gns0fl1fe
      @s1gns0fl1fe  3 роки тому +2

      I feel the same way but now that the honeymoon with Vital is over I’m starting to find uses for both. They each have their own strengths!

      I just check it, It seems its only an audio and not preset packs :(
      Do you have a link to the pack it self?

      @@Nahmannahman420 Pls check out the album description. For example the description for the album "Ancient Technology" states: "In addition to the demo track, a .zip file including the 36 Presets, Custom Noises and Documentation will be included with your purchase." So look out for the ZIP file when downloading the album. I think that 10 US Dollars (or maybe more ) are very affordable. (And it's a clever idea to sell more digital albums too. 😉)

      90% of what you can do in Serum you can also do in Vital, Including this "8 frame" technique. Cheers!

    I'm 4:05 in, and you have not even picked a waveform.
    If you look for more subscribers, you should keep it short and simple.
