A little morning jam with three Phonems, percussive bass sound meets vocal pad-lead meets sequencer pad:

Two Phonems, improvised in 2 passes, both patches use an oud tremolo to excite the utterances, one wave-tabled, the other one a TCS sample/wavetable. The automated x/y-pads modify many parameters, modulation wheel adds vibrato.

I am working my way through the library finalizing all patches and writing the PDF with patch descriptions. Release is planned for the end of the week, so any fence-sitters, make up your mind soon if you want to save some cash.

Post

Here comes a first basic video tutorial which covers all sorts of things from setting up Phonem to make your own patches to basic editing of utterances to modulation matrix-stuff. What I forgot to mention is, that is is useful to make an Init-template-patch yourself, if you want to avoid the notorious "Hello World"-patch which gets created on initializing Phonem. Then you can store your own Init patch in one of your Banks and recall it whenever you need a fresh Phonem.

A little fairy tale patch...

Patch description (quoted from the PDF that comes with Phonemklatura):

The beginning of a tale excited by a wavetable with a re-synthesized china cymbal (TCS sample), MW mickey-mouses the voice, X/Y1 controls mount of pan modulation/panning speed, X2 controls excitation brightness/aspiration amount, Y2 modulates formants.

As it looks now, release will be Monday, I have a bad cold atm and can only works very slowly, which might actually be good for finalizing all these Phonem patches.

Get well, Simon. I think you get more work done than 99% of us when you are feeling ill and "working slowly."

I enjoyed listening to the Phonemklatura demos. Interesting tool very nice high quality sound. I'll get this when released, and I have the money for Phonem..
waves break, but somehow it all makes sense.

Cheers, Wade - yes, interesting tool indeed, the deeper I dig into it, the more timbres come out of it, a synth which never stops giving.

I just released my first soundset for Phonem:

Image

Phonemklatura Phonemklatura contains 108 patches (including some variations) for the unique vocal synthesize Phonem (PPG/Wolfgang Palm). These sounds are not aiming at any kind of vocal pseudo-realism, on the contrary, I am using the versatile and expressive vocal character of this synthesizer to create beautiful and delicate pads, ethereal overtone textures, fragile and edgy leads, haunting and alien voices, phonetic experiments, tempo-synced vocaloid mayhem, percussive mallet-like timbres, robotic voices, fantasy beings and other synthetic sounds only faintly reminding of their vocal origin.

Often Phonem's wavetable synthesizer is used to excite the vocal resonators using wavetables extracted from acoustic instruments like brass, woodwinds, string instruments, mallets and electronic textures with PPGs Wavemapper, expanding the possible palette of sounds even more. All sounds make extensive use of Phonem's x/y-pads which can be automated in any DAW and the modulation wheel, quite a few patches also use aftertouch.

As Phonem's onboard effects are very basic and are rarely used in any of these patches, I included some of the original LogicX demo projects containing Midi data and 3rd party effect plugins, and a Cubase 8-project with some effect chains using the native Cubase plugins, so you could use these settings as a starting point.

You can view/download the PDF for this soundset with more details, the licence agreement, and a patchlist including descriptions and playing tips here.

Specs:
  • *108 patches including some variations.
    *159 resource files - utterances and wavetables in the native utd/wtz-format.

    *Delivery: download
    *Price: € 28 EUR

Demos:
All demos were produced entirely with Phonem using only patches from Phonemklatura, some post-processing was applied (delay/reverb/chorus), if several instances of Phonem were used in a track, some volume automation was used.

Oh boy, am I ever pleased with the Phonemklatura for Phonem! Now the recent perk of getting the actual Logic projects from the demo tracks is so great.

I have quite a few of the effects plug ins used in the projects, downloaded som Demos for the others, just bought UVI's Relayer using in part the a UVI voucher from the Falcon purchase and needed a good compressor so bought the Fab Filter C2 on the marketplace at a good price so it's pretty seamless til get up and running with the same sound quality from the Demos..

Phonem with Phonemklatura and the custom effects chains sounds so crazy good! It's also quite a relief to get a great sound from the get go.

Thanks so much for your hard groundbreaking work Simon

Regards

Wade

Glad you're enjoying it, Wade! Sorry I made you go shopping, but with the voucher thing and the market place Pro-Q2 it wasn't too expensive after all :)
