I wanted to pop in here to add my thanks as well. I upgraded to plus today to express appreciation for opening up the world of sound design to me. I listened to your mr bill podcast episode and am blown away by both your knowledge and humility. What you’ve done here is legendary, and the world of electronic music will know it soon. You’re a genius and I hope that’s paying off, everything you’ve done feels like the moves of a grandmaster.
I only recently started my journey into the world of computer music. Only a couple months in… I’ve had vital sitting in my vst list since the initial binge of free VSTs. I remember opening it and scanning through the presets, thinking the 3d wavetables were pretty but not having any clue what anything was doing… so I set it aside. But… as I started watching videos seeing the top producers all using serum to get those incredible sounds, I had a moment where I was thinking that I may need to pony up the big bucks. Then I remembered that I had something that was like that kinda like 3d picture in serum. I started scanning through the instruments and refound vital. Fast forward a week later of binging all the vital videos I could find and diving into the world of sound design, A WHOLE NEW WORLD cue aladdin theme This wouldn’t have been possible without you Matt. I feel incredibly blessed to be starting my journey into producing with access to the tool needed to really design my own sounds from the beginning. Anyone with an ear that can understand (I come across a lot living and working at a venue) is going to hear about Vital.
Thank you very much Matt, you are a visonary, there are many, but very few manage to do their thing. You have embedded things I have long dreamed of. Focusing on this kind of workflow is the right way to go, without neglecting quality. I’ve Serum and already spent a lot on other plugins, far more. As a rule, I no longer tackle the free ones. With Vital it’s different, I actually prefer to use it than Serum! It’s improved in just the right places. Of course I’ve paid the full price with pleasure.
When I think that there is still no versatil free wavetable synth I can imagine how many people you have made happy.
I’ve put my sound design on hold for a long time. As a long time user of Alchemy Synth (Camel Audio), Vital has actually helped me learn so much more about sound design and the structure of what goes on behind the hood. I’m excited to upgrade once I can afford it.
I wish you guys the best in your endeavors with Vital.
I’d put off buying Vital until now, because, as a Bitwig user, I figured I don’t need any more synths. That said, as soon as I heard vital was going open source I bought a Pro license. We need more commercial Libre Software.
And boy was that a good purchase. I just love how cleeeeeeen everything sounds. I’ve only played around for a few days, but this might be a serious contender for “maybe Bitwig isn’t my main Linux-MPE synth after all”. Keep up the good work.
I also like to thank Matt Tytel for creating such an wonderful synth. One big aspect vital hones your sound designing skills with is the visualization of about everything you modulate. For me personally, Vital was the first synth were I started to modulate Phases and Amplitude of Oscillators using LFOs that take 0.001 sec in one circle to run. I now started to do the very exact thing on Zebra and Massive X and the sound I am now creating with those synth are now absolutely amazing, too. Next to Soothe 2 Vital was the best addition to my sound production site; I don’t miss those 70 EUR I spent on it not a single bit.
Bought the Pro version since I loved it so much. The sound of Vital is most impressive - not fatiguing and earth shattering like other synths fall over themselves to be - but invigorating, refined and magical. This is very special imo.
I am going to actually learn this synth instead of burning through presets and moving onto the next synth because the sound is so amazing. The GUI is also top notch, at first seems a bit confusing but it is actually very inviting and fun to use. Excellent achievement all round.
To think I almost got bloated UVI Falcon instead of this!
The goodness of this instrument goes without saying. Yet if nobody said it, that’s not good. But plenty did say it and so will I. Vital is extremely good. Who wouldn’t be thankful for this instrument? Tytel is certainly blessed, and so in turn are we. As a developer he has more than fulfilled the promise indicated by Helm.
A big
THANK TO YOU
Matt!!!
