Freaky Ambience Sounds Generated Using Cygnus VST Synth

Brilliant, thanks.
Also can you remember the preset on Cygnus that you used for this?

Unfortunately not. It was quite a while ago that I made this. I think the preset number was something in the twenties, though, but I might be remembering wrongly.

Hello, thanks for the great demo.
I was wondering how you recorded this from your Cantibile Lite to get a high-quality mp3? Thanks in advance.

Cantabile has a built-in audio recorder which records WAV files (directly from the output of the VST synths/plugins). I used that to record me playing on the synth, and then used a freeware audio-editing program called Audacity to convert it from a WAV to an MP3. Audacity uses an MP3 encoder called LAME, which gives the best quality for MP3s that I've heard, and it's also free.

I thought that I had already commented on this video, but obviously not. Many thanks for posting such a good Demo.

So you loaded this synth in FL? Nice sounds, I'm like the other guy, when I edit them they usually sound bad, or just not that different. These are great.

Actually, I just used a freeware VST host program called Cantabile Lite. I just needed any basic host because I was controlling the synth live with a MIDI keyboard, not with a sequencer.

lol what do you mean by "generated" u just randomized the vst?
thats insane XD
cuz most of the vsts i randomize make disgusting nasty crispy voices
probably this works on FM filters or something O-O

Yes, one of the 3 oscillators is an FM one. I didn't randomize it - I used a preset (I can't remember which one, though), and made up stuff as I went along on a MIDI keyboard.

Personally, I'd recommend one called "Cantabile Lite" (I used an old version of that program while recording the audio in this video). Note that on their site, they give download links for a "Cantabile Lite" (which is freeware), and a demo of the full version (which is limited in some way). The Lite version just limits the maximum number of things you can do at any one time, but you can use it forever and it doesn't stop you from doing things like saving/loading.
