A Free Alternative To Synplant2's Genopatch Already??

[Music] let's go let's go [Music] go let's go let's go let's go let's go let's go let's go best transition ever today I want to look at micro music the application that basically adds simp plan 2's Xeno patch feature to vital of course this is really exciting because I called simp plan 2 the synth of the year which is a big thing earlier this year and I didn't expect that this is going to be challenged in any way but now it is here because this is actually a free software and since vital is free as well this is pretty huge um so let's check out what this thing can do how many choices do you want 10 so 10 presets which AI would you like to use oh there are different to choose from that's nice color scheme dark yeah open preset follow when done sure okay I showed you this bead not just because it's cool intro but because there are different sounds in it that I designed for this challenge starting with the Basse sound which goes like this so This base sound basically consists of this patch just a resonant Bas sound then there are two instances of diopa to make it a little bit more funky and an instance of Prisma especially the sample reduction gives it this Vish sound also adsr to bring down the noise after each note all right so now it's time to actually bounce this file into a new track now I want to find out if I can just drag it from here that would be pretty cool yeah that works okay now I can browse for a folder boom convert oh wow that was pretty fast why was it so fast that was definitely faster than the Geno patch feature much faster so now I guess it's time to actually try this file how it would work as the Baseline of this beat in order to do that I will make an instrument layer and just put all of the stuff that already have in the first Lane and now make a second lane with vital in here I have to load the preset now can I just use drag and drop no I can't that's a shame open external preset that makes [Music] sense ah okay the thing didn't work that I saw in the video where when he selected the first preset it was just possible to directly go to the next preset for some reason that didn't work so I guess I need to check out that video again but for now I will just click on these files one by [Music] one oh holy that was a lot of noise okay now the fourth one yeah that was pretty close actually it's kind of funny that the filters also have some settings here but they are not in [Music] use wow there was a lot of stuff going on it actually picked up quite a lot of the stuff that I did there for example it used the bitc crush algorithm in the Distortion module to kind of make something that sounds a little bit similar to the sample and to thing unfortunately it's not sample and hold so it does sound different it did not get the base sound right though it thinks it is a combination of Saw wave and sine wave instead of something that has sort of an acid low pass filter on it and it thought that I used use Unison so it probably got confused by the all pass filters I guess holy yeah that one was kind of cool but I don't like that the noise is always so [Music] generic I kind of like the stereo width of this base even though it is a baseline I got got to say though it is a little bit boring that whenever this feature adds noise fragments it is just White Noise it could be a little bit more creative about that however I do like this patch let's play both of them [Music] together that's kind of cool let's saturate this one a little bit [Music] more that's a nice bass sound I really like that so all in all when it comes to replicating the base layer of synth one I think it did not manage to replicate the texture that I gave it but it gave me something that I can layer with this sound and that's a cool function as well now next up we are going to try this [Music] sound so this is a combination between just a sample in Cycles mode and and an instance of JP 6K and here I especially want to know if it is able to pick up that I transposed this oscillator to 19 and the other one to seven to get this power cordish tone also I have this valala frequency echo on a really low shift with some feedback so that you can hear it kind of flanging through [Music] [Applause] slowly little bit of compression and FX layer with valhala super massive to make it more three-dimensional so I want to see if it can pick up the three dimensionality maybe with the corus and the Reverb or something like that and also if it can pick up the flanging and make a flanger can hear the flanging a little bit on a single note as well so that should be sufficient okay now I got some new presets and now I just noticed something the name correspond to the name of the audio file that you gave it so you should make sure that your audio file is kind of descriptive before starting the drag operation so that the names are actually something that you can work with easily so this should be now the instrument layer [Music] thing okay that's pretty loud it's louder than what I gave it but that's okay what I don't quite get is why it added the White Noise again let's turn it off M kind of distorted I don't like that let's go [Music] [Applause] on yeah okay it added the flame jum that's good frequencies at 14 [Music] seconds [Music] I think it could have gone more adventurous about this flanger it was turned down a lot on the mix and yeah I would have liked to hear it a little bit better also the phas is also very conservative [Music] here this would have sounded much better no Distortion Distortion [Music] sucks [Music] I just tweaked myself a little bit because I do want to use the sound however I don't think that micro music succeeded in making a patch that resembles the patch that I gave it or sounded similar that it just didn't do that so now I have a new patch and I can use it together with the other [Music] sounds [Music] all right nice next up I want to try something adventurous I want to give it my voice just to find out how it deals with voices the G patch feature could not deal with voices at all and I don't expect this one either but still it's a quite nice challenge let's go let's go let's go let me turn off the delay for that let's go okay this is going to be interesting let's try the other AI now the better version this is not quite let's go but I do like that it actually used the modulators here in order to pick up that there is some change throughout the audio s plan to also does that whenever you give it something that has different notes in it it tries to make some sort of a AIO thing out of it which is pretty cool and impressive but here it's not quite an apio thing it will not map the LFO to the amplitude or anything to accomplish that but just makes an LFO that's not enough okay it's still just White Noise with some basic waveforms okay mhm that's pretty generic that's not useful at all but I will try something else now I will try synthesizing a kick now cuz simple and 2 is really good at drums and apparently being really good at drums is a thing in these kind of tools so let's give it a chance to shine here as well here we have just the sample of a kick let's go back to the Alpha version of the AR and then hit convert why does it just make one I selected 10 again okay there seems to be a bug where when you go back to the 1.1 Alpha AI it does not make 10 presets okay I don't know it just made one preset for some reason now let's just try that one I mean it is kind of a cool sound but it's definitely not a kick so yeah I'm actually kind of glad about this outcome because it would have been a real shame for Sonic charge if the new feature that innovated the whole audio world was just able to be taken away like that with a finger snip and be released for free that would kind of suck I mean okay I I would have found it pretty cool now to have a tool that I can use to generate vital patches would have been really fun I'm just glad that it doesn't happen so fast CU I do wish that Sonic charge has a lot of success with Sim plan 2 it is just a really deserved success when you innovate a whole category of plugins with a new feature and this was an attempt to make a free plugin out of that but it was not successful
