Vitamins For Your Wavetable Synths! - The missing ModWave pack!

This is going straight to my Polyend Tracker. Thanks not only for the amazing work, but for tge inspiring video too!

[@truecuckoo]

Thank you so much!!

[@grigalat]

Sometimes it's really overwhelming to look for new samples or patches. It's like a big never ending cycle. I personally don't think, i need a full pack of wavetables. BUT! I respect what you do very much. Especially it's cool knowing that your patreon followers get that high end though through content. I mean it's really a good valuable product. Because: I don't have a microkorg... But my god, I've tried to recreate your patches on my mininova by ear. I ve never had a super 6 but those EP patches are fire. So it's not just exclusive content, backstage uncut vids etc. It's like a well made sound design library. I respect this a lot.

[@Nico_Sun_System]

Amazing! Thank you so much for all this hard work, I have been exploring the ModWave for a few weeks and this is GOLD!

[@truecuckoo]

Thank you!! It’s such a great synth! Deserves some spotlight.

[@Nico_Sun_System]

@@truecuckooyes it does! It’s so deep you can easily get lost in it for hours (once you get through the trouble of learning how it works)😂

[@mcolville]

Oh man, dying to load this into my SWN!

[@synthseeker]

Thank you! This is super useful and very inspiring. I appreciate the effort you put into it and the thoroughness in the various formats/frame sizes you provide. :)

27:13 the lonely shepherd as heard in kill bill! nice pack, buddy!

[@remcovanderadio]

Nice playing of the demos of the pack, i dont play keyboard but love how it sounds. Thanks!

[@ProjectOverseer]

Awesome work/sound collection pack. I own this synth - Modwave and Wavestate. I know first hand how addictive the hours become. I'm seriously thinking of adding this pack to my collection.

[@TwinCitiesOxygen]

How do u like the modwave compared to the wavestate? I have the later.

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks mate! Yeah give it a shot 😉

[@truecuckoo]

I think Wavestate stole the show upon release. It’s a given hit. But in my personal opinion, I think the ModWave is much more interesting as a synthesizer. I’m finding Wavetable synthesis more of a true synthesis compared to samples. The ModWave can also use, and layer in the same sample format as on the Wavestate, as a bonus. Of course it doesn’t have sample sequencing like the Wavestate, but being able to layer in multi sample files in a wavetable synth is pretty useful.

i hear you might be coming to bristol. i hope u enjoy ....and get a nice set in if you decide

[@gooneybird808]

So fun to listen to man

[@metokyo4960]

Cuckoo! The man divided by sound and confused by single phrase ❤

[@mmypainting]

I love your microkorg pack, after much trial and tribulation, I've changed a few but most are just great. Keep on keeping on.

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks so much!

[@1UpBebop]

I love the weird retro stuff you usually slip into these packs... Phantasy Star 2 OST lead sound at 11:30... haha

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks pal! Your user icon says it all, Kidd ❤️ Glad to share the enthusiasm with you 🌸

[@HarmonicSonics.]

Awesoooome!!! I love mega bapper, all the mega tables sounds crazy good 👍Those gnarly, gritty, trippy kind of tables with bite but you can still make chords with. The piano ones are pretty cool too i could see myself using a lot of these. I've made a few myself, they can take time for sure! One kind of wavetable that still eludes me is making drum loops cleanly into wavetables. I can kind of do it but gotta clean them up a bit still.

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks mate! I appreciate it. Drum loops is a work of delicate compromise and understanding the medium, I think. Shrinking down a sampled drum loop for instance, will likely be very dirty since the waveforms aren't played in successive order, like in a normal sample, but rather morphed and will result in unwanted artefacts all over. I think we need to think more in terms of "frequencies over time", and make sure to make low volume, or even completely silent spaces between the drum hits. A snappy kick drum is gonna be particularly difficult due to the lowest frequency possible will never be lower than the cycle length, so it's probably a good practise to run the majority of sounds at double or triple octave, with 2-3 cycles per waveform, or more, and reserve the kick drum to take up the whole cycle with just one cycle, to get the most bass out of it.

[@HarmonicSonics.]

@@truecuckoo cool I'll def try that , great suggestion! Thanks

[@KordTaylor]

Oh man! This is so cool! Thank you. 👏🏻

[@truecuckoo]

❤️ thank YOU!

[@iiaaiiaannaaiiaaii]

These are beautiful.

[@truecuckoo]

Thank you so much!!

[@SlapShotts]

Excellent work

[@CaleAnderson]

Done deal my man 🤝

[@truecuckoo]

🌻 thank you!

[@kaitlyn__L]

Love those Zelda renditions 💖 they sound a lot like the Famicom Disk System’s wavetable flute rendition of the tune! BTW, you mentioned using single-cycles in the Digitakt - are they also Super 6 wave-slot compatible? Or would I need to do some futzing in Audacity to get the sample-count right :)

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks! For The super 6 you have to go on a round trip in Audacity to create the files. What’s the resolution again? Is it double? 4096? Can’t remember. Should be as easy as speed and pitch stretch a cycle by the factor of -1 octave to get it right. Then save it like in that tutorial available somewhere here on the tubes.

[@audiblevideo]

Bought. Super Pack. Super Work. Super Cuckoo.

[@hvanquentin]

Amazing work! Really love the the CG bank, and all of the wonderful chord progressions. JUST ONE QUESTION - Will these work on the Korg Modwave Mk 2 the same? I just picked one up. Thank you for your time and for just being you. High five BFAM

[@truecuckoo]

Thank you so much! Yes the ModWave mkii uses the same format. It basically just has more polyphony with the new processor.

[@nadirkarim7573]

Got to get this

[@truecuckoo]

🌸🙏🏼

[@lowcypher1538]

I consider spicing up Pigments with this pack! Pretty nice and versatile. But i'm also interested in how you created these tables. Any chance for a "How good ol' Cucko creates his wavetable-magic" -video?

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks! I actually have an older Wavetable workflow video in my archive. Have a peek at that. With the help of Serum, the workflow is dramatically simplified though. You don’t have to be bit-accurate. It stretches waveforms into place. What you should spend the most time into is making the loop point and phase between waveforms precise.

[@nadirkarim7573]

You should make some library packs for unify with plugin guru,that would be so cool

[@DJDigitalJosh]

The only synth of the korg trinity I don't own... yet.

[@truecuckoo]

Super underrated, in my opinion.

[@yukimafia]

My Modwave and minifreak say thank you, and what about bitwig videos? Regrarts from México 🇲🇽 🎉🎊

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks!! I've seen some demos of Bitwig. Seems really good!

[@pijanola]

Great pack! 🥰 No chance to get this under the hood of the Wavestate i guess, since you mentioned it can only be played with the Modwave?

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks! The ModWave patches are not compatible with the Wavestate, sorry. And the wavetables themselves wouldn’t spring to life on the Wavestate the way they can on the ModWave, but they are technically just wav-files, so they can be played on the Wavestate. Although in a much more stale manner.

[@pijanola]

@@truecuckoo Thank you! Yes, i read that it is limitations with the Wavestate, I should have bought the Modwave instead. ;-)

[@truecuckoo]

@@pijanola haha, the Wavestate has a more sample sequencing workflow. Sort of wavetables with huge samples instead 🔥

[@pijanola]

Yes, I actually love that little thing, thanks to your tutorial. ❤

[@annother3350]

The'yre very good man

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks a lot, mate 🙏🏼

[@Trollgaldrer]

Do they work on the 1010music fireball? 🤓

[@truecuckoo]

Wow I totally forgot about the Fireball! Reading the specs it indeed looks as if it should be 100% compatible with the Serum 2048 samples format! Nice!

[@Trollgaldrer]

@@truecuckoocuckool 😎 Some really useful wave tables you have there, will definitely get them. Thanks 🙏🏻

[@AdamPatarino]

Will these work on hydrasynth?

[@truecuckoo]

The Hydrasynth doesn't allow users to upload custom waveforms. It has a Wavelist/ Wavescan oscillator mode, where you can create a list by picking out the factory waveforms you like, and hence create your own in-synth "user wavetable". But it doesn't support externally created wavetables to be uploaded.

[@solamnique]

Can you fit that in a track of the Tempera Granular ?

[@truecuckoo]

Hey that's interesting. Putting wavetables into a granular synth would be a great experiment. Wavetables are tiny, and designed with just one tiny cycle in mind. Granular synths are typically playing much bigger chunks/ grains of samples. But most granular can go all the way down to wavetable level, or even lower, so it should in theory be interesting.

[@solamnique]

@@truecuckoo Ill try it then !

[@hantingwang6590]

First🎉

[@truecuckoo]

high five!

[@Le-chat-qui-joue]

Hi Cuckoo! ᓚᘏᗢ Do you know if the pack would be compatible with the wavetable engine of the Microfreak? Thanks!

[@truecuckoo]

Good question! The resolution (2048) is the same, but many of the wavetables in the pack contain more than 32 waveforms, which is the MicroFreak's limit per wavetable. I'm not sure what will happen with the bigger files. Maybe it will just cap it at 32 but work fine? I don't have it here so I can't check. But all of the wavefiles are in the pack, which you can assemble your own wavetables with, keeping the limitations of the Microfreak in mind.

[@Le-chat-qui-joue]

@@truecuckoo I understand, thanks for your answer. (Also using your Digitone patches already, they're nice!)
