This is SO awesome. Just learned HEAPS I didn't know about Vital. Thanks for showing us how it's done and inspiring us! Btw - the drums on the example track were fantastic, the kick was rattling my teeth.

[@MelleLouiseMusic]

Great tutorial. Thanks for making me want Vital even more hahaha

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

What’s stopping you? It’s FREE! The CPU hit is real tho

[@prodbymxrxn]

This sounds like a video game score this is dope

[@BradRossMacLeod]

I was working with some of this and discovered something new in Vital I hadn't noticed before. We all know you can drag a modulator (LFO, ENV, etc.) onto a parameter to have the modulation control that parameter. However, if you grab the modulator and drag it around the interface it will apply that modulation to whatever parameter you are hovering over! So holding down a key allows you to preview what that modulation will do to your sound. What a great way to play with sound design and experiment with different modulations without assigning parameters, then deleting assignments, etc. Is this something well-known already...?

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

I did NOT know this! This is HUGE. Wow!!! Thank you.

[@Maniclout]

Didn't know this, very nice

[@Dekoherence-ii8pw]

2:30 dreamy and creamy.

[@michaelmanningly8984]

Quack ! Quack! Quack ! Space plucks the planets of the universe , to blow that silent solar symphony .... Quack !Quack !

[@oliverrees9397]

To add I'd love to see a video on the beats for this

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

Anything can happen!

[@larsb.nielsen4481]

I REEALLY like the "save the forest" preset on Diva...whauu ♥! Can this be replicated on Omnisphere or Hive 2 maybee ? I mean Omnisphere and Hive 2 have the same smooth and warmth sound like Diva. Can you help ?😀

[@theunconciousmind7314]

❤️‍🔥

[@jiminaterj3845]

What software do you use? Very well made video 💯

[@duvan198]

Where Can i buy this serum preset?

[@DandyRaytona]

Video starts at 3:50

[@skyb1067]

scrolled through the comments just to find this one

[@brianh395]

Is Diva still worth buying today if you have vst's like Hive 2, Vital and Omnisphere?

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

Diva is one of the best sounding software synths ever. It's not the easiest to program, but the manual is great! Try the demo.

[@johnhazlett3711]

The attack in the Cobblestone patch seems a bit stronger than Save the Forest.

[@enrajgro1723]

In my Vital when im going to edit the wavetable of the first osc and does exactly the same as you, really, the whole wave changed and im not able to change from triangle to this random wave. I did it several times and it just doesn´t work. Also chose spectral mode and then tapped X. I dont know what im doing wrong. Pls help

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

Best thing to do is reset and initialize the patch and start over. I have another video on my channel "PADS in Vital" which also might help you. It fully explains the wavetable editing process. Hope that helps!

[@enrajgro1723]

@@s1gns0fl1fe thanks für your quick answer! I'll try it 👍

[@adirsab]

where can i get this vital skin?

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

It's called "Candy Cave" and I believe it comes with the subscriber edition

[@adirsab]

@@s1gns0fl1fe ❤

[@mindsoundmeditation7962]

at around 9 min, you are editing the wave shape.. when I try to follow, I don't get the even blend like you do, it stays a triangle all the way through until the last frame where I've edited it.. yours blends as you scroll through, what did I miss?

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

In the wavetable editor, change the blending mode to “spectral” and it will morph between key frames.

[@mindsoundmeditation7962]

@@s1gns0fl1fe Thanks for taking the time to reply.. I did change the blending mode to spectral, it didn't make a difference.. I have the free vital, perhaps thats why? Anyhow, appreciate you!

[@rafsandomierz5313]

What about the Halloween special with horror ambient for the next year? Ngl, I'm fan of horror.

[@DemonEmbarasser]

I can't get OSC2 to tie to Envelope 2, following instructions EXACTLY and it literally won't trigger it
