It's funny how Phase Plant's interface and design is so on point, the simple addition of a remap function blows so many other doors wide open.

kHs: how much modulation do you want? Psyheads: yes!

Great explanation of a great concept! Thank you!

I support you bro!

Another cool use for REMAP, which I haven't seen mentioned yet, is for dialing in the exact loop lengths in the Sample OSC to achieve audio rate playback based on keys pushed. So basically, I loaded a kick sample and wanted to TRIGGER it at audio-rate speed, corresponding to the note you play. And because this isn't a linear algorithm, REMAP is essential to achieving this.

@@ryangilmore5676 I think he is saying that he can remap the samples he drops into the sampler, and he uses remap in order to match the length of the sample with the lenght of the note being pushed. Neat trick.

​@@ryangilmore5676 Of course! Imagine speeding up the tempo of a kick drum loop over time. Eventually, it won't sound like a kick anymore but instead will turn into an audible pitch. Picture Vital's "Keymap", but instead of an envelope being triggered, the sample is being triggered at the rate of the pitch (like... "pitch rate" ;-). If you do this with note repeaters or delays, the issue I found is that the overlap of previously triggered samples will turn the sound into total mush. I wanted to find a tool that would let me drop in any sample, and then repeat the sample at the pitch rate of the key I push. For example, I push C1, and the kick repeats 32.7 times per second to make it sound like a C1. Push C2 and it repeats 65.4 times per second and so on. With REMAP in PP, you can now tether the loop end of the sample to a REMAP, which is tethered to a NOTE modulator. This will allow you to set custom repeat values and adjust for their nonlinear increase as you go up the octaves. Let me know if this makes sense. I can post the patch for you if you're interested.

Great video, as usual, with lot of energy!

That's an awesome feature, learnt a lot, thanks very much for your work!

8 days after I got how remaps work and why it should be used... It saves having to use a lot of LFOs! Thanks mate!!!

great demo!.. definitely going to try this out. Thanks for sharing and sorry to hear you're having some issues with youtube.

Great tutorial, however it would be very helpful if we could see a mouse cursor! It was hard to follow sometimes

cool video, which grid resolution did you use on the LFO? I m trying to rebuild this patch , but my pitch always sounds odd

@Overxpossed

As I see, Dash is using the default 8/4 grid. In the curve, seems an 16/12, as for the amount of notes (16) and tones of the scale (12).

Very nice. Love all your videos. Maybe it's my age (plus the speed of your tweaking), but I have trouble following the movement of your mouse cursor/pointer on the screen and, so, often can't tell what GUI element you have tweaked to make a particular change in sound. Is there any chance you can somehow highlight your pointer, for example, with a transparent halo, or other such visual spotlighting? I won't stop watching, in any case. Thanks!

For some reason the cursor didn't show up in the capture of this video, I thought it wouldn't be an issue as it's not a sound design tutorial - rather an explanation of features :)

​@@DashGlitch Thanks, Dash. I get what you mean about this particular video. In general it's not the presence or absence of the cursor, just the speed of movement that challenges my visual synapses. Other viewers may not have the same challenge. Don't get me wrong. I love the way you fly around the GUIs. It matches your genres.

Agreed. It's nice to be able to see what part he's fiddling with.

Non-linear scaling is life. In Ableton, the M4L device "Modulat" is absolutely indispensible for this reason.

10:45 you've been transposing the key but I can't see any of the semitone pitch shifts either global or per synth being changed. How are you doing it?

sorry if im being dumb but how is it any different to using an lfo and jus setting that to the shap you want it to be instead of using to remap to alter the shape of the lfo?

@DashGlitch

One lfo can sync up to infinite other ones with remaps, you can also use it to force values into a scale

I know, it was a mistake 🙈 thanks tho

Mod remap is very cool, but for quantizing pitch, I really wished they’d put in a dedicated device instead of this. You could already do this before with an LFO, and now it seems they’ve added presets for scales, it’s so awkward compared to checking / unchecking desired pitches on a scale, like in Vital or Pigments. Looking at the shape, how do you find a particular note? By counting the lines? Or how do you go about changing to a different scale, i.e., redrawing the steps? It works, kind of, but isn’t it rather tortuous? (And brittle, since it depends on the modulation amount being set correctly.)

@DashGlitch

How to change the scale? Preset browser, as displayed in the video, 1 click 👌 this is more versatile as you’re lot limited to chromatic/linear mapping

@BappinProductions

It would be better to have both options imo. Selecting preset scales is great, but what if you just want to restrict to a smaller subset of notes, this is much quicker to setup using Hive/Pigments/Vital implementation.

Its incredibly dependent on what you're doing. If you're maxing out unison voices on the generator and master unison, playing multiple notes simultaneously with bunch of effects with polyphonic mode on, then you'll probably need to call Google to rent you some servers lol. If your patch has minimal number of voices and effects and it still stutters, then sadly your computer probably isn't powerful enough to comfortably use PP. If you're somewhere in the middle, then you can still just bounce as many tracks in your projects as needed to free up some space for processing.

Explain "plastic" in quantifiable sound terms please :) It's a flat frequency thing, like most other plugin nowdays, I don't see how a Saw wave sounds different to any other, except maybe the filters, at which point - just make your own with SliceEQ. In my experience, calling something that's pretty much endless and modular by a pretty arbitrary adjective doesn't really make much sense unless you're only able to make such with it.

It has a very clean sound, especially the generator filters and imo it isn’t as immediately gratifying as vsts like RePro or ACE, but what it lacks in character it more than makes up for in flexibility. Kilohearts aren’t experts in analog modelling like u-he, Synapse, TAL and rest and Phase Plant isn’t trying to be a character synth, but rather a relatively neutral synth that can be super clean or dirty and nasty depending on how you program it.

People hear a mathematically perfect sawave and think of plastic, then listen to an ob6 (which has extremely precise vco waveforms) and think of analog warmth when they are the freaking same and the character is hiven by the type of filter anyway. I use mainly vital, but software like phase plant can be SO much more "analog" than analog synths using just the right kind of modulation (I mean, not just pitch drift) that it kinda begs the question if purists are just afraid of new things or scientific truth, kinda like a religion
