I'm going to give a presentation in my Music Tech class about Analog Synthesis and the methods of emulating it digitally, and figured the XLT crew might have some insight into this. Before doing any research at all on emulation, here is what I know: One method of emulation would be sample playback synthesis, where brief wav samples are taken from vintage synthesizers/acoustic instruments and then modulated with ASDR envelopes, and played back on the 'emulator' synth, along with additional insertion effects, etc... What is my current knowledge of this procedure lacking? Are there any other completely different methods of trying to get a replica sound as exact as possible? Thanks guys, I know I'll learn a lot (as always) from this community. :) |

Nordlead, which was the first ever commercial virtual analog, doesn't use any samples at all. It's all software running on CPU's and digital signal processors. So..software is one way to emulate and probably the most accurate of them. I don't know how they go about when analyzing say a Moog filter or Prophet-5 oscillator, but it's pretty damn accurate. |

cool man... this is good enough, but if you can elaborate more, it would be appreciated. :) At the very least though, you've given me a good lead to start on. |

you may wanna look deeper into wave modelling... any sound can be emulated digitally, just like we can apply effects and filters to make a sound rougher, we can emulate a sound to replicate analog synths, and technically it is 100% realizable, its just weigh hard to do... |

This is an anlogue patch I made for SC3: ( Instr([\minimoog,\one],{arg freq=440,int1=5,int2=-5, width1=0.1,width2=0.1,width3=0.1, ffreqInterval=0,rq-0.4; var p; Mix.arFill(3,{ p=Pulse.ar([Lag2.kr(freq,2)*LFNoise1.kr(1,0.01.rand,1).soft clip*int1.midiratio,freq *LFNoise1.kr(1,0.001.rand,1),Lag2.kr(freq,2)*LFNoise1.kr(1, 0.01.rand,1).softclip*int2.midiratio], [width*LFNoise1.kr(1,0.005.rand,1).softclip,width2*LFNoise1 .kr(1,0.05.rand,1), width3*LFNoise1.kr(1,0.04.rand,1).softclip],0.2); RLPF.ar(Mix.ar(p),Lag2.kr(freq,2)*LFNoise1.kr(1,0.005.rand, 1).softclip *ffreqInterval.midiratio,rq).softclip}).softclip; },#[nil, [-48,48,\linear,1], [-48,48,\linear,1], nil, nil, nil' [-48,48,\linear,1], ]).gui; ) emulation involves distortion, saturation on modules. Intermodulation. random elements. Drifting. To emulate the heat and imperfections of the real thing. It is hard to get a growling deep farty etc. sound from a computer. I must admit. Like the windowlicker bass in the scratch edit. Or some of the resonate filters you hear in old afx tracks. Res beating like in Aphex Twin - "Start As You Mean To Go On". The hats are runs through the filters. first the high, then the low pass.. the res starts to resonate into a sine, but some analogue synths don't create a perfect sine when the res modulates. The can turn into Fm. Which gives that sound. Partly due aswell to the distortion and saturation going into and out of the filters and from the oscillators. I think |
