HoboKa Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 I've had my eyes on Atmosphere and Omnisphere, but well, I'm uber poor atm, so I need some free or cheap pads - getting sick of my old ones lol. Any suggestions?? Quote
HoboKa Posted October 12, 2008 Author Posted October 12, 2008 Synthesize something in Synth 1? grood idea Quote
Yoozer Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 I take that for a big fat no X_x Take it for a "lern 2 do sounddesing". Alternatively, http://www.hgf-synthesizer.de/ Making pads isn't really rocket science, but if you look towards buying stuff as your first solution, it probably is. Quote

These programs look purty user friendly - thanks Yoozer, I shall try to make pads...and no it's not rocket science to me. Jes was lazy lol. Quote

Most other posts I've seen by you were a bit more constructive... If you want simple stuff like analogue-ish filter sweep pads, then I agree, synthesizing them should be easy enough. If you want more complex, constantly evolving ones, I see nothing wrong with buying libraries. I personally never did though, as I'm happy enough with the free pad-oriented VSTs available. Definitely give Cygnus a try. If you want to do sounddesign, I'd get the GUI by Odo. But it has a lot of good presets either way. http://www.krakli.co.uk/cygnus.htm Quote

Yoozer Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Most other posts I've seen by you were a bit more constructive... The word "pad" has a dozen meanings, so apologies that I'm not motivated enough to whack out 5 pages of "here's how you do X" for each and every one of 'm . HoboKa, if you'll be a bit more specific you'll get an useful answer out of me (e.g. examples, mp3 snippets, good Youtube movies) Quote
HoboKa Posted October 13, 2008 Author Posted October 13, 2008 Pads that are designed for backing chords and the like are what I prefer, though ambient stuff is fine - the stuff I got from this page is already pretty useful - I've been experimenting a lot Quote
