Melodic Techno presets for Pigments 5 : adsrsounds.com/product/wav-samples/melodic-techno-for-arturia-pigments

Orbit is a sophisticated MIDI sequencer that can generate melodies, chord progressions, drum patterns and more. Driven by the Euclidean algorithm, a simple yet infinitely powerful mathematical model, Orbit merges controlled randomness with intuitive visual feedback, offering an effortless platform to experiment, innovate, and bring your musical vision to life.

EUCLIDEAN - The Euclidean algorithm evenly distributes beats across a given time span. Under your creative guidance, Orbit introduces a captivating unpredictability by placing notes in patterns that defy immediate intuition. This controlled randomness within structured rhythms infuses compositions with subtle surprises, making them dynamically engaging and compelling.

PARAMETER - Orbit’s sequencer offers 8 separate lanes or rhythm parts each with independent controls allowing for complex polyrhythms and constantly evolving sequences. You can customise each lane by specifying and tweaking a full range of parameters including steps, beats, rotation, probability, velocity, swing and more.

MODULATION - The modulation panel can be used to draw in modulation for each parameter on any given lane. With Orbit’s internal modulation system you can modulate the parameters of the sequencer on the fly, or even add an element of randomization to the whole process.

SCALE - The scale selector lets you choose your key quickly and facilitates key changes using the circle of fifths.

ADVANCED VIEW - The Advanced view allows you to see and control the parameters for all 8 lanes at once, this can be especially useful in the moments before you drag and drop the MIDI from from Orbit straight into your DAW

RANDOMIZE - Orbit’s randomize panel allows you to fine tune the boundaries of the randomize function so that your riffing is both creative and usable for your project.

Start an idea with one of the factory presets - 80 presets across 7 popular genres to get the ideas flowing including Chill & Ambient, Dance & EDM, Hip Hop & Trap, Lofi & Synthwave, Pop & Indie, Progressive, Techno.

Exploring ATOMS by Baby Audio

In this video ADSR's Paul Nolan walks us through ATOMS by Baby Audio

Atoms is a new kind of synth plugin that uses cutting edge physical modeling to generate an endless variety of organic and otherworldly sounds. Use it to build rich and alive textures the world hasn’t heard before.

Complex Physics In A Simple Package
Physical modeling simulates the behavior of real life instruments. But Atoms takes you beyond what’s possible in the natural world. Its features are deep enough to explore the outer bounds of sound design, yet so simple that you can easily mangle, shape and create.
Atoms is powered by a simulation of interconnected masses and springs with tweakable properties and dimensions. The model is triggered by a virtual bowing action that excites the system and makes it vibrate to generate sound.

A Living Organism
Nothing in the natural world is ever truly static. Physical modeling mimics this by generating sounds with the same organic fluctuations as acoustic instruments. Atoms takes it even further. Its six main parameters can be automated with a selection of powerful motion options to add extra life. This lets you create soundscapes that are constantly shifting and re-generating, like a natural organism.
If you’re used to working with sample libraries, Atoms will bring a new level of otherworldly realism into your tracks.

Program New Patches With A Click
Atoms comes equipped with a powerful randomization engine. It’s a musically calibrated algorithm that selectively adjusts each parameter based on its relationship to the others, giving you usable patches with every roll of the dice. You can narrow the algorithm further by limiting the random ranges for any knob or locking parameters from changing. Finally, the Recycle button is a second randomizer that will create new patches similar to the current patch. Once you have a sound you like, click recycle to explore related options.

Physically Modeled Effects
The bottom panel gives you a range of creative effects to further sculpt your sound. You can also choose between four sonic profiles, each offering a different structure of the mass-spring network simulation that powers Atoms. With the exception of Space (reverb), all effects in the bottom panel are created inside the physical model itself. This gives you a range of unique modulation effects that are an inherent part of the physical model and sound more natural than any separate FX chain ever would.

Baby Audio TRANSIT - The Ultimate Transition Designer

ADSR Music Production Tutorials 2023-08-26 | Baby Audio Transit : adsrsounds.com/product/software/baby-audio-transit-transition-designer

In this video we take a walk through Baby Audio's new plugin TRANSIT - An easier way to create transitions. Creative transitions between song parts play a vital role in keeping listeners engaged and excited. To make them, producers rely on multiple tracks and plugins – and a suffocating amount of automation lanes.

Transit simplifies this process down to just one plugin. It hosts 18 powerful effect-modules, freely loadable across 7 slots. All effect parameters can be linked to a global Macro Control, which you automate to create complex FX transitions with one knob movement. The result: More engaging, less static, mixes.

In this video we take a look at the new 1.3 update for ADSR's DRUM MACHINE plugin - Introducing automation. Control commonly used features of DRUM MACHINE by drawing in or randomising values across time. The modulator feature is used to control some properties of an effect (filter cutoff or resonance for example) or the sample (pan, pitch, gain etc). Complex control of samples and fx are available at the click of a button and the modulation of these characteristics help produce a sense of movement, dimension, and depth - breathing life into your beats and making things less static. Modulation options include : velocity, pitch, pan, gate, filter cutoff / resonance, phaser and sends.

1.3 update includes

- Added automation to sequencer
- Added ability to preview samples without auto-loading them
- Added option to load only samples or patterns from a preset
- Added init preset to clear menu
- Improved randomisation feature
- Various minor performance/stability enhancements

Emotion is your source material #musicproductiontutorial #musicproducer #musicproducerlife

ADSR Music Production Tutorials 2023-03-26 | Emotion is your source material

What emotion are you trying to convey with your music?

Starting with this emotion in mind and figuring out how to describe it musically can be a great exercise for inspiration.

Think about the chords you could play, which instruments you could use or even the tempo and how those decisions can bring to life the emotion you want to communicate.

If you feel like your music sometimes sounds generic or is lacking some kind of soul then perhaps you are missing emotion.

In your next session try starting with an emotion in mind and spend some time thinking how to conceptulise it with audio and keep it in mind when making your decisions and choices amd see where it takes you.

Cut Low Frequencies for a Cleaner Mix #mixingtutorials #musicproductiontutorial #musicproducer

ADSR Music Production Tutorials 2023-03-26 | Watch the full video - 4 Ways to Eliminate Bad Frequencies : youtube.com/watch?v=ZfnbkazBSWE

In this tutorial we show you how to eliminate bad frequencies! This is very important to know if you want to have clean mixes. When you have a track with many stems with bad frequencies they will add up to a muddy sounding mix.

1. EQ - We explain how to scan through your tracks using an EQ with an Analyzer and find the problem areas. This also includes cutting out frequencies below 100

2. De-Esser - We open the Fab Filter Pro-DS to explain how to use a De-Esser to cut out bad frequencies.

3. Waves C1 Sidechain - We use this great old school plug in to show you how to isolate bad frequencies and draw them down. Using this plug in is great as opposed to straight EQ because we can control the bad frequencies much more.

4. Multiband compression - This is an amazing way to get rid of bad frequencies by compressing different bands of the sound. A fun and very powerful technique. A great option to have to shape sounds.
