Run In

An attempt to get to grips with the Prophet VS plugin, which basically operates like a stripped down, knobbier Wavestation but with a slightly more organic sound? Anyway, single patch, with modulations both played live and programmed via envelopes. Recording automation on Arturia plugins can be a bit of a nightmare, so this is a single take recording of the output. I'll write something a bit more dynamic soon when I have the time!!

I love the restraint and the subtle morphing and volume changes in this. It really works. Very emotive.

I also have issues with arturia plugins. They sound amazing, better than other vintage synth plugins, but they always reset after closing Ableton. Also if you hit a certain note with a certain velocity the resonance goes crazy and your sound gets all weird. Has this happened to you?

Hi, guys! I don't own those plugins myself but a friend mentioned me that if that's the case (losing adjustments and automations in a project) you should go back to use always VST instead of AU in Ableton. ever tried, really, but just in case...

Anyway, excellent piece as usual, Matt. Great job. Some more dub next week, please?
