Vital Synth Hacks and Secrets
Показать описание
In this video I take you on a fast-paced tour through some non-obvious hacks and secrets and shortcuts for Vital.
HUGE shout-out to "0.5 degrees" for creating the following set of chapter markers. You rock!
0:12 Master output: red bar and (not) clipping
2:45 Kind of ignore this meter, there is no clipping below 6.4 dB
4:14 Now it starts to clip; just plain hard clipping
5:09 Set your track volume to −6.4 dB and do whatever inside Vital
6:02 Click on the oscilloscope and it becomes a spectrum analyzer
6:37 === BROWSER ===
7:27 (Obsolete) To un-filter by pack, minimize and restore the window
9:45 Finding where do duplicates come from: right-click
11:53 Reorganize files live and Vital won’t freak out
12:56 Add underscore to a bank name to float it up in list
14:01 By default anything is saved in “User”
14:56 Cut and paste a file to move it to another bank
16:08 Menu: load or create Vital banks
16:58 …they are just ZIP archives, so you can preview what will be loaded
18:45 === PARAMETERS ===
18:51 Hold Ctrl for finer increments
19:05 Hold Alt and click to enter a value (without right-click menu)
19:32 Double-click to reset
19:56 Hold Shift for changing semitones in octaves (±12)
20:47 === OSCILLATORS ===
20:51 Unison: for 4 voices and more, drag little voice bars to change spread
20:13 SP[ectral] view: where do you have harmonics in your wave
23:54 …useful to make sense of spectral warping modes
26:08 === FILTERS ===
26:12 Drive knob is loudness-compensated!
27:10 Making louder: use compressor, distortion; don’t be afraid to use master gain!
28:03 Advanced tab, click on “Hertz” to choose semitones
29:00 The default position of a peak is middle C
29:36 === MODULATORS ===
29:52 Holding Alt turns off snapping
31:08 Double click on a modulator to remove it
31:11 Don’t drop the modulator: scroll to change amount, listen in real time
31:31 …drag it anywhere and preview other options without commiting
32:03 …holding Ctrl, Alt or Shift switches to bipolar mode
33:05 Clicking on “Smooth” in LFO allows to use fade-in time instead
33:48 Pressure and Slide are MPE signals
34:39 Lift is velocity of note-up, when available
34:51 Octave Note supplies 12 values depending on which note C C# D … B you play
37:17 Stereo applies fixed offset between L and R
39:11 Random triggers per every note
40:06 === MOD MATRIX ===
40:30 Click the lane number to (un)bypass a modulation
40:51 Morphing knob allows simple waveshaping
41:05 Mod remap is more complex (check out the recommended video)
41:44 Modulate morph and amount
42:15 === EFFECTS ===
42:17 Compressor: defaults are almost exactly like in OTT
43:13 Comparing to OTT
47:00 === WAVETABLE EDITOR ===
47:24 Using a line source
48:48 Making sense of a wave source
50:21 Free-form drawing with a wave source
52:04 Line source warps other sources
53:37 Conclusion
This is NOT paid promotion. I've been a long-time beta tester for Vital and just love it to pieces and want to share useful tips and tricks.
If you enjoyed this video, please do me a solid and not only like the video (and subscribe to my channel), but also give me a follow on my TWO different artist accounts on Spotify! Thanks!
