Thank you Ian Dixon for your work🙏

[@IanDixonTDL]

My pleasure!

[@audioartisan]

Thank you Ian!

[@IanDixonTDL]

No problem

[@stefpir]

Gorgeous ! I was studying my wavestation in order to reproduce those sounds on the wavestate. And you already started this work!

[@IanDixonTDL]

Yes, lots of the wave sequences are built in and they sound great

[@stefpir]

​@@IanDixonTDLyesterday evening i started to look closely at those sounds.

[@montxsuz]

Good stuff. I still have my prized Wavestation A/D from the 90s and will try your presets on the Wavestate software from Korg.

[@stefpir]

Same! I need to compare the sounds

[@IanDixonTDL]

Please let me know how you get on and which presets I should do next

[@Jma965]

Thanks, Gracias! Merci beaucoup

[@wernerjurgen5416]

SUPER!🤩

[@IanDixonTDL]

Thank you! 😃

Lovely stuff ❤

I'm not sure I'd use these packs you create (because mostly I prefer making my own sounds) but these videos about the packs have so much of interest for me - I really appreciate your commentary both about the history of those sounds and the sound design choices you made when recreating those patches.

[@IanDixonTDL]

Thanks, I do like providing a bit of background on the design and like you said the history. I am glad someone else like it, I wonder if I provide to much info :)

[@AntonMochalin]

@@IanDixonTDL for me it's an almost perfect mix of sounds, sound design commentary and history, I'd honestly prefer even more commentary but I understand many come to just hear the sounds. For me for example your mention of We Can't Dance album places those sounds in a very specific era which has a lot of associations for me when pop music had so much different sounds it often felt like too much so later we had the rise of those simpler genres like alt rock or house and techno and that album was a bit undecided about that with both a very wide sound palette and attempts to return to the simpler rock structures.

[@IanDixonTDL]

I know what you mean, I liked the more complex struture of that era.

[@AntonMochalin]

@@IanDixonTDL yes it was always interesting to listen to but it was obviously hard for musicians and producers as they often didn't have ready to use techniques to deal with all those possibilities, for example they tried to use all the new sounds while trying to preserve the harmonic complexity of 1970-80s which is a very hard thing to do at the same time. So we had those albums like We Can't Dance which now sound as a sort of "experimental pop" because of that ambition.

[@IanDixonTDL]

good point. I could do a whole video on Genesis sounds, in fact I did do a Modwave Genesis sound set.

[@wavesequencer]

Nice job.

[@IanDixonTDL]

Thanks for checking them out!

[@wavesequencer]

@@IanDixonTDL I may give those a go.. I'm a fan of the Wavestation series as you can probably tell. Just got the Wavestate desktop to go along with the WS-EX and WS-SR (and the soft synth versions). I also made some 'Wavestation' style patches (including a version of Debussy on Wheels) for my soft synth Hyperion - if you are interested I can PM you a NFR.

[@IanDixonTDL]

@@wavesequencer i am also a fan, I haven't used that software synth

[@PhrygianPhrog]

Some stunning patches there, no wonder the WS was so influential in its time. Do you have an original WS from you got the patches from? (Sorry if you already mentioned in video, it's a long video). The concept of wave sequencing is a stroke of inspiration by whoever came up with it. They had just enough memory and computing power to playback short samples (and even early digital synths looped said samples to provide sustained sounds) but the stroke of genuis was the idea of queueing the samples end to end. Combine that with layering and the possibilities are endless!

[@IanDixonTDL]

Thanks, I used the plugin version from the Korg Collection as my references. The Wavestation was adhead of its time, in some ways its more complex than the Wavestate, it has 8 x 4 layers.

[@gianlucamarchese]

Amazing job! Any plans to make Waldorf Microwave 1/2 or Korg 01W inspired sounds for the Modwave?

[@IanDixonTDL]

I could do but I need a good source to reference from

[@gianlucamarchese]

@@IanDixonTDL For the Korg one, I can recommend you Thought Forms YT channel, for Waldorf there are Waldorf M factory presets and demos, Microwave videos from AnalogSound YT channel and Katsunori Ujie from musictrackjp
