Output Portal Granular Plugin - Why It's So Awesome

[@corticallarvae]

Mangling transients is where granular shines in my opinion

[@54LZ]

Love your videos. You're so competent in music production.

[@rhytmicaloverdose]

Dash, you're my plugin adviser! =) All plugins you recommend is hot as hell! Thnx! Keep up the great work!

[@jayc9184]

Damn. That is legit!

[@gkillmaster]

you are one of the very best and my music community life is all the better for you! Thank you!!! So good seeing how your work and think. Really opened things up for me.

[@yungstreichholz]

Loved that you used a vocal sample for demonstration. It makes it super clear what it actually does

[@kneeelbowtoes]

Top-notch video! i've been using portal for almost a year, so worth it!

[@ns3429]

One of the best teachers on YT, no doubt. Thanks!

[@PATISHAH]

Appreciate your work so much! This plugin is incredible. I think those who made, are from another galaxy. There was nothing like it ever. Such a nice quality sounding morphing capabilities. Sound engine is top level.

[@adamclarkson6749]

Thanks for this tutorial! This plugin looks amazing!

[@Beatsbasteln]

i love the way you present your sounddesign process. you show it's a lot of crazy trial and error work and a lot about happy accidents in the middle of inspiring textures. but you also skip the some stuff to make it not too long from a content creator pov

[@urehlav]

Damn another plugin tempted to buy now *face palm*

[@bludge1083]

cheers again Dash, very helpful vid mate :)

[@chiefofsinners5272]

Excellent tutorial and new way to get through audio books...

[@profet1385]

Beautiful

[@madrickmusic]

Thank you so much for this Video. It helpded me a lot!

[@SensemakingNL]

Bought it a year ago. Couldn’t really to gel with the other sounds i made. Very otherworldly wonderful and textured. Time to revisit

[@griffinmpc8144]

This is me exactly. It's a cool plugin in theory - but getting the output to be usable has been a challenge.

[@gwugluud]

It took four videos before I found one which demonstrates what this sounds like. Best demo I've found so far. Because it's an actual demo.

[@greggregowki2840]

Total chaos in this presentation

[@mutalienscontineumofficial8345]

This and Silo is bloody fricken awesome. :D

[@soulballet]

portal & thermal both awe

[@gegen_den_strom]

dayum is this thing awesome!!!

[@s1gns0fl1fe]

Dash be out here returning the Abyss favor. Portal is now on the must buy list!

[@jsndude]

How is no one talking about high tight that section in the middle was; once the kick bass accomps kicked in?!! … Dude, please ID this soon. I’m tripping hard rn & when that section kicked in, I just switched to rave mode on autopilot cuz it BANGS dude. I got connected on that part. The world needs this release lol … Thanks for being you, my dude =) 🤙🏻

[@jsndude]

2 weeks since I posted this comment and I still can’t help coming back to this video just to skip to @8:20 and vibe out. But holy shit when the atmosphere dries up(get it? Wet/Dry? lol sorry) from 8:43 on, the headbopping, fist-flailing & stank face screams “the groove is FUUCKIN ON!!”. For real though Dash, PLEASE release this. I really connect with this track. … If you don’t, I’ll most probably produce my own take on it and send it to you (which I now realize that you’d be excited to listen to it, if you weren’t planning to release the OG soon … + y’know, connecting with fans musically ofcourse) 🤦🏻‍♂️😅

[@hansvos5897]

Great Tips Thx

[@Oberjin]

This track is fire yo

[@MarkRigler]

Thanks

[@torchbearer3784]

It is a fun plugin. Almost too much fun because sometimes instead of making music I just play around with this for hours 😂 Then I throw some other plugins over/under it and yeah....

[@ResonanceRebel]

Danke!

[@DashGlitch]

Thank you for the support!

[@wizmohaghanem]

Super awesome, can you please do another video explaining Thermal.

[@DashGlitch]

I bought it and have not used it much, I personally prefer Rift

[@grayaletter]

So cool. Feel like this would take me about 7 years to learn how to manipulate like this 😂

[@DaddaPsy]

Chordal Clouds preset on any sound = Atmosphere done for your track

[@yo-eu5yh]

Heyy man where can I get Chordal Clouds preset??

[@DaddaPsy]

@@yo-eu5yh It should be under "best of" or something like that in Portal

[@yo-eu5yh]

@@DaddaPsy Thank you for replying! Is that native preset??

[@DaddaPsy]

@@yo-eu5yh Yes it should be

[@alfa156c]

I love my ADM (beatsequenzer with 606,808,909)(32steps) , this ADM have a FX named "MANGLE" . it is a "VERZERRUNGS" "aufblas" (blow off effect , Tube effect) Effekt . It is importand , if the mangle fore or behind the LP/BP FILTER . per Sequenzer steps can You programming the steps to the Filter or push it per hand (fx botton for all slots) . part for part , you can givethe tom/conga the Fx or the Base with 606 or the hihat the Fx ...... it is so cool. Your Selfmade Mangle is diffent to the ADM mangle, but Your Idear is so good . At End of the Video , I like the sound , it is realy good for a part behind the break . :Applause:

[@LFPXX]

Thanks. So this is the "make your own scifi movie dialog" plugin

[@thomaskasper8597]

Man your channel is so valuable in terms of sound design, I don't get why so few people know your channel. Anyways I hope when this covid bs and Ukraine War is over we can have a massive party at a rave or something Greetings

[@samdietriich]

Very nice Video as always Dash ☺️ Btw where did you get this Vocals? They sounding very clean

[@DashGlitch]

They're from SounDirective Creator Pack made by Inner State

[@nevio___2290]

hi great video. Cane you use this vst fo live shows or it make latency/ cpu glitching?

[@jcpurleigh]

Created by Sixis i believe! If you havent heard his track called ‘Contact’ i highly recommend. Out of this world ballistic sound!

[@DashGlitch]

Oh wow, I didn't know that was him! I know his stuff

[@jcpurleigh]

@@DashGlitch yeah Ben Weiss i think his name is. His music as sixis is awesome! Saw he made this Portal plug in from on his website, im keen to try it out but is a little pricey! Im more than happy playing about with Rift for the time being though 😋

[@mylogify]

@@jcpurleigh Ben Wyss :P

[@jcpurleigh]

@@mylogify oh yeah, thanks :p

[@tupokooj]

Absolutely stunning! Thank you man.

[@Viktor-wf9lk]

Dash, contact Tadashi, who is behind the development of Hy-Plugins, his updated Hy-Filter4 plugin will be released soon. It's crazy that this plugin can...

[@thomaskasper8597]

Hey quick question: For that Beatmangeling example where did you put the Granular Delay? Was it on the drums only or is the bass included?

[@DashGlitch]

I removed the bass and then put it back in after I rendered the mangled clip :) the bass added too much tone to the mangles

[@HenrysPokeCorner]

Can you tell me how to export the presets I’ve made , so I can create my own packs for people to download ? I can’t find anything online about it

[@Teeb2023]

4:15 Shodan? Is that you? :)

[@StayTrueToMyLies]

whats the songs name at 13:46? the bassline is sick!

[@corticallarvae]

What is granular fidelity, how many grains at once etc…. How small can they get…. It’s Kind of fundamental to granular synthesis

[@thlLd]

I've always wanted Portal but it never gets a decent price on sale because Output is some of that companies that know the product they have. I hate when companies know the product they have :(

[@bilnabiln]

it’s on sale rn at Plugin Boutique for $105 only until feb 28th. not sure how big Output sales go, but it might be the best deal until Black Friday 🤔

[@thlLd]

@@bilnabiln That's what I mean. Companies like this one, audiomodern, Cableguys, Fabfilter, never give people in a poor country a good opportunity to buy their products. $100 is still a lot, like, a lot a lot. And they never go far below the regular price, even on black friday. Do you want our great plugins? Pay for it, and pay dearly! The current Portal sale for me it would feel like spending 600 dollars. To acquire portal it would have to be a sale like, 25 dollars, and I would pay with a pain in my heart. But hey, I'm just venting here.

[@yungmentalproblems]

@@thlLd just crack bro

[@girishpatil7454]

@@yungmentalproblems do uk any websites who offer cracks?

[@marcovandermeij4521]

where does the vocal sample come from?

[@MarcoPolux]

How about Arturia´s Fragments?

[@glorio9829]

Do u know other vst like portal? I wanna try antother granular fx type synts

[@tupokooj]

Maybe 'EFX Fragments'

[@glyph6757]

Grandad, Silo, autochroma, and argotlunar

[@pianodude01]

How do we automate the macros?

[@DashGlitch]

it should work the same as other plugins in your DAW (ableton/bitwig you just move the knob then click the automation drop down and select it from that list)

[@luunaatiiquee5726]

i bought portal, and i noticed there’s latency when i put portal on melodies… help plz

[@DashGlitch]

your daw should do latency compensation? if not try shifting the recording after the fact or using a negative delay the amount of latency

[@XeloX58]

This is FAR OUT !! I saw one comment about the price tho… ?

[@DashGlitch]

It’s not cheap, but I feel like it’s worth it, nothing else on the market does it quite like this.

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

I can hear some Androidus sounds in Output... Bro can you stop draining my bank account?

[@lightconstruct]

There are decent plugins out there with proper sale events. I'm eyeing this since years, but this much money is ridiculous for a one-effect plugin. You can get Infiltrator for the same price.

[@DashGlitch]

It’s not just one effect, did you watch the video? There are 10 effects and most of them can’t be achieved by anything else on the market, infiltrator is great, my 2nd fav plug, but you can compare imho, infiltrator doesn’t even have a sampler/granular engine. It’s selling point is interface, but the effects are all traditional and most already exist in your daw.

[@bilnabiln]

Plugin Boutique has it on sale until Feb 28th for like $100 (i think?) instead of the retail $150

[@richardspillers6282]

It'd be real cool if the preset menu had a scroll bar... I mean c'mon. Your finger will fall off before you find a preset you like.

[@DashGlitch]

I'm pretty sure it does, but remind me again, did I even open the preset browser in the video?

[@alessandroratoci3089]

Well... there's much more interesting stuff in granular synth with less hype and less visual gimmicks in the user interface... and less "sooooo greaaaaaat" :)

[@DashGlitch]

This has the benefit of not having to render/load samples like a granular synth though. Keep in mind this video was made before arturia fragments and their granular mode in Pigments even released. I'd also expect a comment of this nature to at-the-very least name one, you know, to perhaps help others ;)
