With time and patience, one is able to create some serious basses, pads, and leads, which owe nothing to the big cats in that area. They targeted an audience of first timers, more than seasoned midi guitar players.īTW, I don't have that much use for Synthmaster either, but have to say it's a pretty powerful synth for the money. They might not be the best sounding VSTs money can buy, but were more guaranteed to work out of the box. What Fishman did for the TriplePlay was to pick solutions in the market that would work well with midi guitar. I mentioned the Synclavier V from Asturia, but boy! is it a drag to use with midiguitar. Most times, I just had 6 instances loaded to lessen the trouble, and I still had to shift midi channels to 2-7. You need a plugin that does AND "demix by channel" in Logic, and a good amount of luck. Logic Pro, for instance, doesn't do that well. It was perfect for Midi Guitar, and a very good sounding unit. Even hardware synths had limitations to that effect - hence why the Proteus 2000 was so loved in the Axon days. Unless the VST is ready for listening on all channels and processing pitch bend data separately, you will need 6 instances of a VST (responding to each midi channel). QuoteRe: the 6 instances thing.is that not an issue of mono vs poly settings at the FTP end? It works fine if you're using a keyboard 1 channel will suffice. There's no shortage of softsynth options out there. If you found a VST you like and if it's useful, stick with it. Nowadays I would use something different. But, again, it was the kind of music I was playing then and my overall setup. My beloved Yamaha DB50XG was incredibly simple and I found the sounds rather useful.
#SAMPLETANK FREE TRIAL VERSION SOFTWARE#
Back when I was testing Triple Play ahead of its launch, the software I was sent as a candidate for the bundle was the good old Luxonix Purity, which was incredibly simple, super super super midiguitar friendly, and was quite good for such a simple software coming from a very small company. I actually like both SampleTank and Synthmaster, but as points out, they are very different engines. For an overall library and tweakability, Ominisphere is hard to beat. If one likes the good FM synthesis design, Arturia's emulation of the Synclavier is really good.
If you want a powerful sampler, Kontakt and EXS24 (from Logic) are excellent options - in fact I use Kontakt5 with Evenharmonics' Gtak5 and it's as good as it gets for a midi-guitar + sampler combo. For instance, if you like to design analog sounds, than you're probably looking into something like Massive from NI. Aside from some technical aspects and how well it performs with Midi guitar, I can't really tell you A is better than B. Ultimately, it all depends on what you want to play with it. That being said, my personal take is that each synth - hardware or VST - will have different capabilities, sounds, effects, and purposes. This is a great demo - sounds and no talking. QuoteI just bought the Korg Triton VST (AU) based on this video.
