Syntorial adsr12/26/2023 ![]() ![]() So, to sum up: experiment, experiment, experiment. There are also good books like “Designing sound”.īut the key (for me, at least) is this “turning the wrong knob” skill, which I try to improve all the time. There are loads of tutorials all over the internet, which should give you an idea of how certain sounds are made. Of course you have to have some basement sound to tweak the hell out of it. I was so excited that finished this track in two hours. After a while I decided to come back and see what else I could do, and for some reason turned tempo knob up to 220 BPM and the result was astonishing. I was very disappointed and even abandoned this project. I started with my usual sound at 180 BPM and it was just not working at all. My favorite example that comes to my mind is about one remix that another artist asked me to make. I'll definitely check out other resources you all have mentioned.The craziest sounds I came up with were from accidentally turning the wrong knob in wrong direction I usually have some idea in mind, but because of this the result is completely different from what I have expected. Either Syntorial needs to do more marketing or I need to frequent myself much more on online music forums Not sure how I missed this app all these years. As per other reviewers, the structure, build-up, classroom-style guidance and video-based ear-training are worth it (64 synth parameters to tweak and 700+ patches to program by the end) - compared to buying apps just for preset sound libraries. It might have cost them a lot of time and money to build the app with a built-in synth and content and they need to keep their lights on from sales and also keep their investors happy. Maybe, they priced it at $129 so they could make about $100 from each sale after Apple's cut. It goes on sale for about $80 at times and I heard about student discount of 50%. They could add just one more lesson and call it 200-pack! Mac and PC versions are included in the purchase along with a desktop VST/AU plugin - Primer.Īt $129, this awards-winning Kickstarter app is a bit expensive (SwarPlug app is $99 bucks). Comes with 23+ hours free downloadable lessons on various other synths (Serum, Massive, Sylenth, Z3TA+2, Voyager, etc) - in addition to the 199 Essential lessons pack. obviously, Joe Hanley (the programmer, musician and teacher) knows how to build a cool app and also teach - it came out of his own frustration for a missing app gap like this in the market. for each lesson - this is a dream! Going by how they designed their challenges, quizzes, multi-user profiles, send score, favorites, user-presets, etc. Syntorial - this is perfect! With a built-in proprietary synth (that can also be used as IAA or through Audiobus without limitations) - as an iPad app with locally downloaded video content (no Wi-Fi necessary), challenges, group challenges, hints, quizzes, on-your-own tasks, etc. I have multiple apps and a JD-Xi but haven't explored a lot on designing sounds from scratch. YT videos are scattered and not structured. I couldn't find much on sound-design on Udemy and Busy Works Beats did not respond to my request to put their courses on Udemy. ![]() I want to be an expert at shaping any sound from scratch and learn sound-design rapidly rather than spend a lot of time learning on my own. So far, I was tweaking mostly presets as a head-start (too much time wasted on browsing through them) to shape my own. that I learnt on Udemy, YT and can tweak sounds a bit. I also know a bit about Oscillators, Waveforms, ADSR, Filter, etc. I know music and theory - the contemporary folk song I posted on YouTube 10 days ago got 100+K views (however, I don't like my patch in this song ): Thanks to all for your replies and ideas! ![]()
