Groove3 Softube Model 80 Explained [TUTORIAL]

Groove3 Softube Model 80 Explained [TUTORIAL]

Join synth guru Thomas Cochran for a full-scale exploration of Softube’s Model 80 synthesizer, an amazingly accurate virtual recreation of the celebrated Prophet 5 polyphonic synth. In this Softube Model 80 video tutorial course, you’ll learn about all of this instrument’s amazing features, how to adjust the parameters to get the tones you want, and even how to create patches from scratch, along with gaining a fundamental working knowledge of synthesis in general. If 80s polysynths are your thing, you’re in the right place! These Model 80 videos are designed for new Model 80 users.

Thomas kicks things off with a quick overview of the synth, followed by a look at the presets menu, demonstrating how to select and organize presets. Then it’s on to the oscillators, which function as the foundational building blocks of a synthesizer, where you’ll see how to select different waveforms, combine them to create different sounds, and blend them with the mixer section.

Next, Thomas explores the filter and shows how it can be used in various ways to shape the raw tones generated by the oscillators in musically interesting ways. A large part of a synth’s sound comes from its filter design, and the Prophet 5’s filter, meticulously emulated here in the Model 80, is famous for its richness and depth. You’ll then learn all about the envelopes, which make it possible to control the synth’s sound over time.

Throughout the rest of the Model 80 course, you’ll learn about the other features, such as modulation (LFO and voice modulation), advanced controls (Programmer section, Pitch, Unison), expanded view (for adding stereo width, expression, etc.), and more! To finish things off, you’ll follow along as Thomas builds two patches (a pad and a bass) from scratch, so you can see how it’s done.

Softube went the extra mile with the Model 80 to make sure it’s the most realistic emulation of the Prophet 5 available, so it makes sense to learn how to use it to its fullest. This Model 80 video course is the best and quickest way to do that! Check out the individual Model 80 video tutorial descriptions for more info and inspiration. Polysynth magic awaits for your next production… Watch “Softube Model 80 Explained®” now!

What You Will Learn:

  • Selecting, organizing, saving, recalling presets
  • Combining various waveforms in the Oscillator section for different tones and blending them to perfection with the Mixer
  • Using the filter and envelopes to shape and control the sounds over time
  • Adding modulation via the LFO, Voice Mod, and other features

Groove3 Logic Pro Flipping a Sample Explained [TUTORIAL]

Groove3 Logic Pro Flipping a Sample Explained [TUTORIAL]

Think you need a fancy sampling program to flip your samples? Think again! In this Logic Pro video course, production wiz Larry Holcombe shows you how to do it using nothing but Logic Pro’s Quick Sampler and Sampler. You’ll learn how to pitch, chop, edit, and more in this Logic Pro course, which takes you through the whole process of making a beat in Logic Pro. By the end of the course, you’ll be ready to employ these techniques on your very next track. These videos are designed for intermediate Logic Pro users.

Larry begins by briefly discussing what’s going to be covered in the lesson before moving on to prepare the chosen sample by pitching it and speeding it up a bit. Then it’s brought into Quick Sampler, where you’ll see how to chop it up using beat divisions and make it monophonic. Larry also demonstrates how to remove velocity sensitivity and make use of the Gate Mode, which lets us control the length of each slide.

Next, you’ll explore another method by manually chopping the sample instead of using beat divisions and learn why one method may work better than another for different situations. Larry continues to build things out by layering in a MIDI bass using a Logic 808 preset for extra low-end power.

There’s more to come as well, including creating a beat from the sample with a Logic preset called Crate Digger, layering in a 16th-note hi-hat track with Drummer (and experimenting with moving it off-grid a bit to enhance the groove), replacing the basic MIDI drums with a chopped-up drum loop, adjusting the tempo of the beat for increased energy, and more.

You can do a lot more with Logic Pro’s sampling tools than you might think, and this Logic Pro production video course shows you everything you need to know to create your own beat quickly and have fun doing it. Check out the individual Logic Pro video tutorial descriptions for more information and to get some other ideas about how you can make use of these ideas in your own productions. Tap into the power of Logic Pro’s sampling power… Watch “Logic Pro: Flipping a Sample Explained®” today!

What You Will Learn:

  • Prepping a sample before loading it into Quick Sampler
  • Two methods for chopping a sample in Quick Sampler: beat division and manual
  • Layering in additional sounds, such as bass and drums, to fill out the beat
  • How to make a sample monophonic, remove velocity sensitivity, and other useful concepts
  • And more!

Plugin Alliance bx_enhancer

Plugin Alliance bx_enhancer v1.0.0 [WIN & MacOS]

The Brainworx bx_enhancer plugin includes an input tuner display, saturator, compressor, equalizer (EQ), clipper, Auto Level feature, input and output gain controls, and various meters. It has a pre-configured signal path that simplifies the mixing process, making it an ideal mixing plugin for musicians with limited mixing experience. The controls are simple and allow you to thicken, tighten, and shape the tone of recordings with minimal effort.

Visualize the tuning of instruments in real time
The bx_enhancer’s built-in tuner display makes tuning stringed instruments, analog synths, and percussive elements straightforward. By default, 440 Hz is the tuner’s reference frequency, but you can select any value between 300-500 Hz, including popular alternative tunings like 432 Hz or 415 Hz. bx_enhancer’s tuner can help you notice pitch drift throughout the duration of a performance, making it a critical quality assurance tool.

Put a saturator, compressor, EQ, and clipper at your fingertips
Brainworx’s bx_enhancer is an all-in-one plugin for mixing individual tracks and groups, integrating the three most essential mixing tools into one package. These include a saturator, compressor, and EQ, each typically applied directly to a track to enhance sound quality. There’s also a built-in clipper capable of harmonic distortion. With reverb and delay set up on aux tracks, bx_enhancer provides all the features necessary to mix a song from start to finish while infusing it with analog vibes.

Create wide and controlled mixes
Advanced controls include a Mono Maker, Stereo Width knob, Pan control, and Mix parameter. The Mono Maker sums sounds into mono up to 1,500 Hz, ensuring a tighter, clearer low-end with reduced phase issues. By adjusting the Stereo Width knob, you can narrow or widen elements in your mix to fit appropriately within the stereo field. Dialing back the Mix parameter controls the blend between the dry and wet signal, applying all of the plugin’s effects in parallel.

Eliminate loudness bias
The bx_enhancer’s Auto Level feature addresses the common issue of loudness bias, which can trick your ears into thinking that louder sounds appear subjectively better. This feature matches the plugin’s output level to its input level. By eliminating loudness bias, bx_enhancer helps you make well-informed mixing decisions and achieve the polished results you’re looking for.

FEATURES:

  • Tuner display
  • Sculpt (Saturator & Clipper) section
  • Compressor section
  • Colour (EQ) section
  • Mono Maker, Stereo Width, Pan, and Mix knobs
  • Input and output gain controls
  • Input and output peak/RMS meters
  • Left-right balance meter
  • Phase correlation meter
