![]() ![]() ![]() Synth Anthology 3 is comparable with IK's Syntronik in terms of quality and flexibility. At the opposite end of the cost spectrum is Vintage Vault 3 ($599), which incorporates every synthesizer Soundware library UVI has released (30) so much as it's expensive it's very good value when judged against purchasing each of the Soundware libraries individually (many of which are $199). The best value Soundware is Synth Anthology 3 ($149). It's very much a modern sampler environment but one where the Keygroups are made up of multiple oscillator flavours as well as samples. The architecture of Falcon is very different to a typical synthesiser but once you become familiar with the Tree view and its nested Programs, Layers and Keygroups, each of which contains Effects, Modulators and Events, things begin to click. However, it's good to be familiar with how Falcon works before delving too deep. ![]() The Soundware are much the same as Kontakt libraries but the key benefit over Kontakt libraries is that you aren't stuck with the scripted interfaces, you can delve deep and tweak away to your heart's content. And because they're generally not reliant on samples, they're the best way to learn the flexibility of Falcon's synthesis capabilities. These are hugely useful in helping you learn how to build patches of your own as they're bespoke to Falcon. The Falcon Expansions are pretty essential, but much of that value is dependent on the flavour of the Expansion you choose (genre, sound design type etc, etc). It's probably worth waiting for the Black Friday promotions to come around before spending the voucher just to be sure.Īs you've probably found out by now, there's a difference between the Falcon Expansions and UVI Soundware. They run sales on their Soundware throughout the year but I can't remember if the $100 voucher can be used against products that are already discounted. Thanks for your help and info on this stuff! Not wanting to spend any more money so will have to buy within that $100 range. One quick question if you don't mind - do UVI do sales on their soundware? I'm trying to work out if I should hold onto my $100 voucher and see if there's a sale before it expires. Super excited to play and get lost in this beast. Jon, I bit the bullet and am now the proud owner of Falcon 2.5. It's also worth adding that much as UVI don't often discount Falcon, they constantly discount UVI libraries which can be played back via the free UVI player or via Falcon, where the source samples are game for further synthesis with all that Falcon has to offer. Yes, you set a begin and end marker and then drag and drop the file into your DAW. It's free.ĭoes this let you drag and drop highlighted ranges from within a wav? I use Resonic for this but if ADSR can do that too it looks like it may be better said:ĭoes this let you drag and drop highlighted ranges from within a wav? I use Resonic for this but if ADSR can do that too it looks like it may be better overall. If you're talking about something for desktop then ADSR Sample Manager is really good. My memory is ok but when I've spent some moments considering whether the sound sample is one id like to use, I forget which folder/pack it came from. It will just jump back to the top of the directory. It sometimes forgets where you were in the directory above as well so if you've got a lot of directories and further which one you are in, that can be a pain. I found doing it through Files is a bit clunky really. I don't need categorization, obviously organising by some categories in an app would be amazing but I'd be happy with just a quick file browser that that doesn't necessarily open an audio file in fullscreen aka clumsy. ![]()
