Hi Simon... Fantastic sounds! Exactly what I'm looking for.
When's the release date? I got a deadline for the end of this month so any chance of it being released in the next week?

Thank you for the flowers, I am not pushing it, but the sound flow is good, so I'll need another 2 weeks max as I have to do all the documentation stuff as well for the PDF, and I am also working on my new MachFive library in parallel - so it will definitely be released earlier as announced on the website (first half of November), but next week seems too tight. I assume the week between October 27th and Nov 1st.

Many pre-orderers have asked, if I could not pre-release some of the patches, but no, I can't do that, most of the patches will be finetuned in the final stages and I don't release stuff I don't consider to be perfect.

C'est La Vie! But thanks for the reply.

It's really nice to have a sound designer prepared to bunk off from the 'School Of Bread & Butter'.

I'm into the Trent Reznor/Atticus Ross - Cliff Martinez - Hans Zimmer type of film work and your sounds for Serum are going to take away a lot of head scratching on my part trying to achieve those sounds.

Looking forward to the release.

Thank's man - well, my bread and butter just tastes a little different I guess.

Here is a fresh jam with two new patches, Oud Stabs and Dirt Brass:

Finishing the Serum day with a weird couple, one patch made with 2 layered psaltery wavetables, the other one so strange and dark:

I thought about this again, let's do something different this time, if you like, you can select 10 patches which you think would fit your deadline project most (just repost the audio and video demos here, or name the patches if their name has been mentioned, so I know which patches you mean), I will then finalize those patches asap and send them to all users which attend this thread and which would like to get them as a pre-release. It'll only be a couple of hours work for me and I'll have to finalize them anyway, detailed descriptions as in the final PDF won't be included though as that eats a lot of extra time.

I'm quite happy to wait for the full release but, wow, great customer service on your part there Simon

As if the patches weren't great enough alone

Well, knowing deadlines myself, why not try something different from time to time and my annoying perfectionism won't be hurt too much that way either, but let's see if the man on a deadline responds

Quick and dirty demo for the patch "Synced Sweller" played live on HD tweaking the Modwheel and the Macro on the fly (I ran out of slots in the matrix for all that swelling and ampmod stuff) - pretty rich I'd say:

Here comes a little track with the patch "Celtic Harp Plucker", velocity is assigned to all sorts of things (also to amount of wavetable modulation via envelope in bot oscillators, each one playing a different celtic harp wavetable) making this a very expressive pluck instrument:

Every soundset need one last video, so here it comes, a patch named Big Table Morpher, made from 15 single cycles produced with various hard- and softsynths, importing them all into one table, morhing between them and building this patch around it, runs in 16 voice unsion mode with many waveforms playing at once due to the WT offset in the global settings, I could play 8 voices in real time without problem at a 256 buffer on my rather old Mac Pro tower in Logic 9:

Two more patches from this set in one evening jam after spending the last hours in hospital with our cat, so the track title is "Bono's Patch":
