Kybernaut, did you make these with a VS by your side ??

Unfortunately no, but I had recordings of preset sounds from someone who owns a Prophet VS. I also had a close look at a certain VST instrument

Back to Arturia...

They always tended to find someone that publically "endorsed" their products.

I wonder who is it this time??

Hi scope4live,

how does the SE-1x stack up against the Minimax in your opinion?


thanks,

BTW. Note that Vectron Player has no unison mode. So the patch "Feedback" will not sound the same as on the (full) Vectron. Other than that, there are a few features that are missing from Vectron that would be needed to make true 1:1 Prophet VS sounds: - multistage filter and amp envelopes...

So if this can be set by the synth designer, as Shayne White and John are pointing out, I'm really wondering why CW decided to implement it the way they did. It must be a rather concious decision as it has been done that way on all their VA devices. But why? It sounds unmusical and is not true to th...

thanks kybernaut_01, do those effects look like the ones you have?

I have the EX and it looks exactly the same.

afaik, in all NOAH versions there is "only" the Masterverb (not "Pro").

curious, Tom

Hi Tom. Mine sounds like that (and there is definately some comb filtering going on):

go to the fx page (in the profit), switch it off and it will sound as analog as you expect it

Yawn ...

I know


And personally, I don't think that arturia's emulations are worth all the hype.

Arturia announces a virtual Prophet-5/Prophet VS combo synth.

I think, that shouldn't irritate us CW users too much... With Vectron and Pro~12 we've got already pretty good tools in our hands.

Yes, one thing is the level. The other is color of the sound that changes after every keystroke (comb filtering...)


cheers,

I think one criticism of the review is very important: Minimax (and all other CW VA synths, btw.) don't update their ADS(R) envelopes in realtime. Means, that you have to re-trigger the voice to make any changes on the envelope parameters take effect. Should be fixed ASAP. On ALL Creamware synths. (...

CW synths behave very un-musical when patches using "noise" are played polyphonically. I mean those overlay/cancellation/phasing type of sound. I noticed this with Minimax, Pro~One, Profit-5, Prodyssey. I think, once again, the problem here is how CW approaches polyphony in it's VA devices...
