Novum - New Granular Synth!

[@NAM999DnB]

I have to tell you something, from the very beginning of this video, the tone of your voice, plus the background drone sounds, plus your production work, makes this video almost trance inducing. Congrats, I have enjoyed it very much.

[@waveform-synths]

Thanks!

[@eyelash5948]

i just discovered you and youre already one of my favorite channels.

[@waveform-synths]

Thanks @eyelash5958 !

[@calderadelescocia7325]

Thank you very much for this nice overview of another great synth from Peter V /Dawesome.

[@waveform-synths]

Glad you liked it... looking forward to having a play with Kult when I have time!

[@MarioEtzlerChristianson]

very beautiful Synth ... thanks for this comfortable walkthrough

[@voltphantom]

this is a great synth demo. thanks for sharing!

[@waveform-synths]

Thanks for listening

[@mark35mi]

Brilliant.

[@prodbyquill]

sounds + looks v nice

[@waveform-synths]

Agreed...plus the Clouds reverb is the icing on the cake! :)

[@sternenherz]

Seems nice to use with own samples: like a Handpan Chord, and then some field recording of nature? Hohoho

[@waveform-synths]

Yes, Novum comes to life when you feed it with your own samples! :)

'Video starts', me - "Skyrim is that you?"

[@CarlosCarty]

Hi dear, Please where can I get that patch? I couldn't find it inside the BASIC .

[@IonStream]

Great video Waveform. Such a nice synth to play with. Love a good UI! Also, youve got major Dan Worrall vibes with your voice, big fan 👌

[@gylp2]

Really cool sounds

[@rayderrich]

A nice presentation with your awesome voice!

[@waveform-synths]

Thank you Rayder Rich!

[@DubElementMusic]

perfect synth when i am baked af

[@calldwnthesky6495]

i generally don't like synth demos where there is a lot of talking (it's why i like a creator like DataBroth so much)... but the sounds combined with your voice have an asmr quality. also you are quite articulate which is more than i can say for most of my countrymen - americans

[@robmlisanti]

great demo i just purchased it today 👍😎

[@waveform-synths]

Congratulations... I'm sure you'll love it...

[@DJREN2]

How do i get the VST to work with Ableton. Its says its a VST3 so not sure how to get it working. I use VST2.

[@DJREN2]

No worries. Just sorted it out.

[@waveform-synths]

Glad you sorted it!

[@lumpielump3576]

well done - for some reason, I never hear that big differences when moving across that timbre flowe, what did

[@waveform-synths]

Try it with different timbres? - some changes seem more subtle than others...

[@scythe5771]

Very nice! Now the real question is how much CPU this thing takes up🧐

[@dawesome]

Not too much - its highly optimised for low CPU consumption! Two users with 10years old laptops were part of the BETA team to ensure this works fine.

[@scythe5771]

@@dawesome 10 year old laptops? Man that's actually really crazy! Cudos to them for making it work for so long! Aside from that I'm glad it's not CPU heavy then :)

[@waveform-synths]

I can confirm that the CPU hit is light. On my three year old i7 playing that 6 layer patch with long grains, a 5 note chord and a ridiculously long Clouds setting, I was hitting around 25% peaks on a single core...and that was the beta version...

Great demo 🙏❤

[@davidlincolnbrooks]

I've solved one mystery: It's the patch called DROWING PAD that crashes my DAW every single time, without exception. Who knows why. I'll see if somehow I can delete that particular patch.

[@generalawareness101]

Ableton here and I don't crash just don't have much use from this plugin with its inability to load up .aif samples.

[@generalawareness101]

What ticks me off at this plugin is that Ableton has so many samples but this plugin says screw us because it refuses to load .aif.

[@waveform-synths]

I wasn't aware of that... might be worth mentioning it to Dawesome - they are very responsive, and you never know, it might be incorporated in a future release...

[@EmpiricalMind]

My trial version has a burst of white noise after about 3 minutes for about 5 seconds, with a screen prompt to BUY or click OK? why is your copy not have this, is it because it's a review copy?

[@waveform-synths]

Not sure why that is - try downloading again as there have been a few updates & the trial version should be free of any restrictions...

[@EmpiricalMind]

@@waveform-synths Thank you, will do.

[@kymc3550]

Don’t see it anywhere where the hell is it can’t find it to buy or download

Release date is today (18th) - I'm sure the website will be updated soon...

[@basedaudio1]

What's the difference between abyss and novus?

[@waveform-synths]

Abyss doesn't have the granular capabilities of Novum, so you can't import your own samples, but the spectral processing can actually give similar results for Pads & Sustained sounds...

[@matheusdarocha9917]

is you g man from half life ?

[@dpixvid]

Love Novum, but there are fairly easy ways to layer granular layers, modulate, efx... love the visual interface though. Somewhat overpriced I think, but it’s on my wishlist...

[@paparazzia]

Very limited amount of sounds in this video, basically just washed out pads. Would be nice with a bit more variety in terms of texture (beats? drums? field recordings?). Hard to understand the potential of the plug-in otherwise.

[@401dB]

[@captainvardia9923]

how to play this thing ???...as soon as you press a key it starts a terrible deafening sound that is impossible to stop !!.... there are too many keys and whatever you press the noise gets louder and louder !!...something that can be played no one makes anymore ???....this stuff is for the mental hospital !!!...

[@waveform-synths]

Something is clearly wrong here. If your other plugins run OK, perhaps try re-installing? - Good luck.
