A collection of presets I’ve made for the synth VST, “Vital”, a free synth that you can download in the instructions below. The preset bank can be downloaded by clicking the attachment link at the bottom of this patreon post. (Cover art by CalamariSpider)
Introduced in 1983, the JX-Programmable-Preset-Polyphonic analog synth from Roland was a big hit. Released alongside the Jupiter-6, both synths had a second oscillator which set them apart from the Juno. The JX-3P featured a button-only front panel and the classic chorus, whereas the Jupiter retained the knob and faders but had no built in effects.
These are some of our favorite patches to use as they cover a wide range of sounds, with 6-note polyphony and the lush chorus that makes everything just sound great. Have fun!
Soul Surplus presents “Common Folk,” by artist, musician and producer Dave James with help from Larry Mack on trumpet. This release highlights the hybrid sound of folk infused soul and country Rand;B that can add the perfect amount of organic musicianship to your production.
Always with infectious top-line melodies and harmonies Dave stacks useful sounds and movements for your choosing. These acoustic and electric guitar driven compositions highlight all the soulful goodness you come to us for with a special “down-home” singer songwriter twist.
