I wasn't working today so I started recreating the first presets of this soundset.
I don't own the commercial soundset, I 've just listened to the audio demo.
My presets aren't identical but quite closer : http://perso.wanadoo.fr/TranceDevotion/Synthology.mp3 |

That's pretty bloody good pal. Just made me realise that those demo songs are what's selling those presets. Without those catchy riffs they would have nothing more than good presets that countless others could match.....it's the package(demo songs)that make them so appealing.
You have a great ear and I am trully impressed that you matched those from just audio. Very impressed. |

V-Station can do supersaw, check this :

I'm sorry if the equalisation isn't right.. I can only listen with headphones during the night.. |

Hey. In reality, you can do a supersaw with ANY softsynth. Its prefferable if its a softsynth that can do a bunch of voices to get the thickness but as long as the synth has detune and you can load the synth up a bunch of times, you are good to go :). Another important factor is getting the synths to trigger at the same time to get the unison effect. If it doesnt line up just right, its ok but you wont get quite as thick of a sound. Seriously though, if u dont believe me, trying layering a bunch of 2 oscillator synths together using saw wave forms and detuning them just a little bit :). Voila, supersaw ;).
Cheers,

| Great work Everyman! Are you planning on recreating all of the sounds from the demo? Did you generate the midi files too? If you could explain your process for recreating patches using subtractive synthesis I'm sure many here would appreciate the tips. This would translate well to many hardware and software synths. |

No i wont recreate every preset of the demo.. It was just to see what I was able to come up with.
I'll post the midi notes if you want it. |

The midi would be great. I'd love to attempt it with some other hardware and software I have.
Off topic: has anyone made or seen a utility to convert a sysex or fxp patch from one manufacturer's synth or plugin to another. I don't know the feasibility of it but if it could be done it would be extremely useful. |

Unless the synths are VERY similar, I think you are out of luck :P. That why its called sytem exclusive information. The settings arent standardized for transport from synth to synth, just for a single particular synth or possibly a family of synths. I suppose in theory it would be somewhat possible to transfer settings, but why bother. It would be much more unique if you were able to come up with it yourself instead of what everyone else was using, the converted sysex :P. BTW, read the JP8080 manual. It tells you everything you need to know about creating a supersaw and if you read it right, youll be able to create one on jsut about any synth ;).
Cheers,

Saws are really easy to come up with, just try some detunning having set the waveforms to saw.
To add some distortion (if you want it aggressive) use Ohmboyz products or PSP Nitro. |

| Thanks for the response about the sysex conversion. I'm actually not after the "supersaw" sound. I'm more interested in finding the limitations or strengths of one piece of hardware or software compared to another. I'm sure the popularity of one piece of hardware or software over another has more to do with who uses or has used it rather than what it's actually capable of. I have a bunch of synths but am always confused by how many folks slam inexpensive instruments like V Station, Vanguard, Novation K series, Roland SH32s and others. I own a Virus Indigo II and while I love it, I'd feel more accomplishment building a track around less expensive gear. |
