timwat Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 This popped up in my suggested YouTube feed. Ummet Ozcan announces a new hybrid synth plug-in. Pricing: One Euro. [video:youtube] My apologies if this has already been posted - a quick search didn't reveal anything to me. Quote .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KuruPrionz Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Thanks for sharing, I want this. I have lots of synth plugins and hardly use any of them to be honest. Gotta at least kick in my Euro!!!! Plus, maybe I'll have fun with it. If not I'm not out much. Quote It took a chunk of my life to get here and I am still not sure where "here" is.

Mark Schmieder Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I have been hesitant to respond because I wanted to cross-reference another post first, but the vi-control.net forum has been unreachable (to me, at least) for days now. Someone had posted there about a new soft synth done by the Absynth programmer. I'm not sure if this is the one or not.

timwat Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 Someone had posted there about a new soft synth done by the Absynth programmer. I'm not sure if this is the one or not. That might be Plasmonic by Rhizomatic Software's Brian Clevinger. Synthtopia attributes Clevinger as the creator of Absynth (and describes Plasmonic as leveraging physical modeling with subtractive synthesis). It's available for pre-order, but is priced at $99USD, rather than one euro. Back to Genesis Pro, I was unaware who this guy Ummet Ozcan is - the interwebz describe him as a Dutch DJ / EDM artist. And this begs the question for me - is he also a software developer (I can't find any attribution to this)? If not, who developed this and why are they letting it go for essentially free? Quote ..

Bif_ Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I'm concerned that the CPU requirements might be the snag in implementing. Quote Kurzweil Forte, Yamaha Motif ES7, Muse Receptor 2 Pro Max, Neo Ventilator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Schmieder Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Yep, it's Plasmonic -- I am FINALLY able to log in to vi-control again and just re-found the topic. Regarding Genesis Pro, do we yet know if this guy has a track record elsewhere?

Markyboard Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 In the video he says he's been at this for 8 years. I got the impression this was his pet project. Charging one Euro is sort of his gift to the music world. " It's important to share with everyone". That's cool. Unfortunately I'm not sure I heard anything I really like or thought sounded all that unique. His words/pitch don't match up with the sounds I'm hearing. "A synth has to have character" and then I hear this movie sound-trackish thing that sounds right out of a well equipped sample library. "This synth can make any sound". That's a red flag to me. Nah- think I'll pass. I wonder if I can take home a Moog vocoder for 1 Euro down payment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KuruPrionz Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Random thoughts... If his marketing campaign is successful, it could crash servers, both for download and payment platforms. There will be reviews. Early reviews can be revealing but it will take a deep dive to find what this is capable of doing. At least one of the reviews should reveal the CPU requirements. I've lived up until now without this plugin so I am fine with waiting until more is known. I am also a fan of "cheap, free, or on sale" software. I don't recall ever paying full price for any audio software, I always wait for a sale and here always is one - eventually. When the time comes, it is quite likely that I will gamble a Euro, currently that is about 91 cents. Cheers, Kuru.

analogholic Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I actually heard one good sound So there might be potential... So, I'm going to get it mostly to support the guy for releasing his hard long work for a Euro.... Quote All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed.

Markyboard Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I"m sure after 8 years of development his diabolical plan is to screw as many people as possible out of 1 Euro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Coda Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 What the hell would he only make it 32bit for. Meanwhile I´ve read it´s made w/ Synthedit,- no kidding ! That explains why it´s 32Bit only. Today, I´d not even pay a single EUR for a Synthedit VST device. It will have some CK modules under the hood and the rest incl. GUI is Synthedit then. Works stable when done right in 32Bit systems,- but never in 64Bit systems ... And don´t even ask for a Mac version then. A.C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wd8dky Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Did y'all ever hear of JBridge? It solves the problem and works well. Quote http://www.weisersound.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KuruPrionz Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Did y'all ever hear of JBridge? It solves the problem and works well. I haven't heard of it. I'm glad it is available. I've got lots of soft synths to play with already, 64 bit and Mac OS X friendly. So, I'll just work with what I have now, it's more than enough. Maybe he'll make enough money one Euro at a time to create a 64 bit version and include OS X. I might be dead by then...

Al Coda Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Did y'all ever hear of JBridge? It solves the problem and works well. J-Bridge doesn´t solve issues of Synthedit made VSTs ! You have to know Synthedit is the SDK of such creations and SE itself is buggy. P.ex. Memorymoon VSTis were made w/ Synthedit in the past,- cool synths already in 32Bit,- but since they are re-coded from scratch they are really good and available for PC and Mac 64Bit. Memory Moon (Memorymoog emulation),- up to now 32Bit still,- might be upgraded during this year. A.C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
