What does Genopatch

Synplant 2 uses a sample sound to pick up the parameters of its own synthesizer. Genopatch takes over the timbre options and shows several solutions. They can be listened to and then edited as normal tool settings. This is useful when you want to play a new motif with a similar attack or the nature of the sound.

The capabilities of the synthesizer determine how close the sound will turn out. Strong reverberations, multiple instruments at once, or a long complex recording can produce a result that only remotely resembles the source.

Example with a short stroke

Take a short permitted sample of sound, such as a stick hitting a wooden box. Compare which options convey the start of the impact and how long the tail lasts. Try a few notes and different pressing power. A timbre that sounds good at one height can be too sharp at another.

Select the option for the composition task. For a party in a dense mix, it is sometimes enough to transmit the attack and then soften the high frequencies in the synthesizer itself.

Access and test

Genopatch calculates the parameters on the computer. The synthesizer has a trial period that begins at the first run in a compatible program. Check the supported system, plugin format and project opening after saving. If you need a similar timbre in another workplace, save the settings along with the project and make sure there is a compatible synthesizer. Check also how the selected timbre responds to repeated short notes.
