VISCO: Insane new drum resynthesizer/modeling plugin with almost no limitations on the free demo 

The winrar approach to a free trial, commendable!

"I don't need any more plugins" ...then stuff like this comes up :D

I've just fed it a chopped up funky drummer break mapped across each of the 8 hits and it's actually coming back at me with this muted interpretation which you can really start to mangle into new territories. Addictive af.

Yeah this plugin is incredible. Shoutout to the developers for being so generous with the demo!

I think virtual riot would have a field day with this plugin

holy shit. i was sitting here like "fuuuuuuuuck" all the time from how well designed the macros in this plugin are

My immediate reaction is to try throwing samples at it that aren't drums. Like what horrible noises can I get out of it with vocals, loops, etc.

wow, didn't expect this to be this good, thanks for bringing it up!

Cool thing .. sounds and operates like a modular synth. Morphing can be quite handy.

This got recommended to me because one of my friends is an aspiring DnB producer and I've watched some music production videos, and I'm so glad that it did - Your video not only helped him, but I listened to your track Cinders and it's absolutely mind-blowing. I haven't felt this excited about a track in a long time. I'm going to listen to it on loop for two weeks, lmao. Please keep making more music!

The visualizer is exactly what I see in my mind during synesthesia

what a sick sound design tool. thanks for sharing

Wow, looks like such a powerful tool for getting just the right sample sounds

truly insane, thanks for showing me this

This is such a cool plugin, crazy for morphing stuff and resynthesizing stuff

Will try it out thanks

The fact you can use it in perpetual demo mode is amazing

Love the openess of the demo, but this was an instant purchase for me. Loving this tool so far

this is my first time I watch your video, and i hit the subs button after. Keep it up man!

super cool vst, and also. great, informative and concise review! thx!

Wow, thanks for showing us this, and eh how cool of these peeps to provide such a good demo version, I hope people who appreciate it buy it....and that they keep updating it, this thing could be legendary....

This tool will def be on my list of the best plugins for sound design. It's amazing!!!

Expressive timbral change modulation. We needed this.

“Shout out to manuals, read the fucking manual” I spit my drink out! That had me rolling! 😅

What a great plugin! I want.

This looks sick

This is amazing, especially for bedroom guitarists!

Holy Molly 😍 This is insane!!!

Thanks for sharing! 🫡

Cant wait to try this

You could make some mind bending fills with this bad boy

Holy guac that is awesome.

this plugin looks absolutely incredible. was just in the mood to start mucking about with some IDM over the weekend and this pops up. the universe is speaking to me lol.

Synplant, Beatwave RANDOM and this live in the same space of my plugin corner now. Nice! 😎

love that length modulation at 6:43 oooeeee!

That’s dope!!

Looks pretty crazy

4:01 Polyphony: To describe how this works, when set to 1 it will only allow one voice to be played at any given time. For example, say you had a long 808 sample and pressed a key to trigger the playback, then pressed a second key before the playback had finished from the first key press - the playback from the first key press would immediately stop when pressing the second key to allow for the playback from the second key press to occur, because if polyphony is set to 1 then only one voice can occur at any given time. If polyphony is set to 2, you could press that second key and it would not stop the playback from the first key press because you can now have 2 voices play at any given time. When polyphony is set to 2, if you were to press a third key before the playback from the first two key presses had finished, the playback from your first key press would be stopped to allow the newly pressed third key's playback (voice). Tl;dr polyphony determines how many voices can playback at any given time.

I've literally been waiting for a plugin exactly like this that morphs 2 sounds together. Drums would be fun to mess with and create new drums, but I can't wait to make my own instrument one shots. This is so simplistic yet incredible.

this is nuts

wild. It's so good.

Bruh this is insaane...oh that randomizer function is icing on a very delicious cake

This is great for taking stems of major artists songs and make your own sound out of them

Gotta try this with melodic stuff and sequence some cool phrases wow

devs have recently really been cooking up insane plugins recently, this is crazy

Holy shit. I don’t even know how to make music or write it but I can tell that the capabilities of this is actually insane

Great overview…. I finally got it installed and I’m using it as morphing monophonic synth, I hope they bring out a synth with this tech’, I love malleable sound mangling. ( I was using Ableton, I put a scaler, from the midi effects before the VISCO plugin to ensure it plays the sound regardless of the keys 🎹 you play from your midi controller. Then on another midi instrument track I put a M4L expression control with Midi in set to ‘ Key Track ‘ , and the assign the parameter for that row to the ‘ Global Frequency ‘ parameter on the VISCO configure panel. So with both tracks midi input armed, the triggered sound will now play the sound chromatically. So it’s basically a Morphing Monosynth . There is a polyphony of up to 4 notes in each sounds , but only seems to work for arpeggios with overtones , rather than sustained chords .

mind blown! :D

3:30 Tip of the all tips! That carries you far in anything! xD Great video!

That is crazy

I like it. Boss.

That's pretty cool! But it's confusing that X is frequency and Y is time. Most plugins I know have frequency on the y axis (higher notes are higher positioned) and time on the x axis (like the playhead in most DAWs, or spectrum visualisations, or even in a music player, where the time slider is horizontal), so the meaning of X and Y axis does feel flipped. I'd buy the plugin, if you could flip the X and Y axis in the settings. Would make more sense to me, to have X as time axis and Y as frequency axis.

top tip your monitor level in ableton's bottom right can be changed so your sample previews are played at unity gain. max of +6 sown there = 0db in the daw. makes comparisons far easier.

sick

looks interesting

Reminds me of soniccharge plugins. taking it to the next level

Thanks

Its really good. Been dropping in my own samples, manipulating them then resampling them. I will end up buying it but ive been able to do this on just the demo.

🔥🔥🔥

Interesting plugin

Reminds me a bit of the Hartmann Neuron synth of 2002. That also did some weird latent space stuff with analyzed samples (not limited to drums though)

looks amazing thanks a lot

Perfect for IDM. Sounds like you could get some Autechre sounding beats easy using random.

4:20 almost went DnB for a sec there.

wish they had an ipad app, seems like this would lend itself nicely to a touch interface

the sound shaping parameter seems very similar to the morph slider in microtonic

Fire

this is great! question - when i export the midi i wish i could pull the sounds in the preset into a drum rack or something to manipulate them individually using other processing, is there a way to do this?

Not only is this a fantastic plugin but it's less than a mere 3MB in size.

this is cool -

I couldn't find anything in the PDF manual regarding MIDI control of any parameters besides velocity. I haven't downloaded the demo but I first judge a product by what I glean from documentation. The PDF shows a scaler window but doesn't talk about it though it does show mod wheel as a selection.

Amazing plugin. Thanks for sharing. What headphones are you using by the way?

It is pitch sensitive via midi? I'm curious about what can be done with tonal samples

Damn thats really interesting. Kind of reminds me off the LXR02 by Erica Synths where you can make 2 sets of digital FM drum sets and morph between then over like 100 steps. But this goes a bit deeper for sure.

what i would like to know is are the 8 tracks correspondent to midi notes so i could use a different sequencer or piano roll? and also if you can modulate the parameters not just inside the plugin but with different lfos and automations in the daw?

Im on still on Windows 7 making progressive metal/vaporwave/collage music and this plugin is PERFECT. I hope it works on Win7 lmao

Sold

Yup, seems insane enough.

8:20 onward was literally Hitman: Blood Money! Add some strings, war drums and a choir - it’s spot on 😂

Whoaaa 😮😊

This looks insane. I'm a broke student and I wish one day I could afford this beast, the things it can do would really improve my drum design and maybe synth design as well

Now I’m gonna go home and get this lol

I needed something for drum edits. I make similar sounds with manipulating audio and it takes ages. This will speed things up a bit!

Awesome! Can we also map the output of each “track” to different channels?

Holy smokes… this plus Bitwig LFOs mangling the parameters… 🤯

This looks awesome..... Q. Can it be used with other seqeuncers or just the in-built one?

Buy it

In demo mode, each time that you close its window, the time that you'll have to wait before you'll be able to use it again, will increase. Soon, you'll be waiting a long time and it will become a major hindrance to work flow.

the plugin looks like that online tier list maker

I think the developer was an Ableton guy. This thing is amazing on kicks.

You don't have to use it in the sequencer though, right? You can use the midi in your DAW and just have it read and play that too?

All of those sounds sound like wet rags ... does it smooth out the transients or something?

Sequencer is one bar

Can you automate the movement between the two samples over a period of time

Nice those people who think out off the usual boxes and come up to this

This + Synplant 2

2:35 not to mention you can automate any of those parameters

Is there a way to use the X axis for time and Y for frequency? I know this plugin is supposed to be kind of weird, but time on the Y axis is criminal

What is actually insane is the continous innovation as well us music producers running after technique all the time ... Now lets try to reinvent the wheel or worse, the bass drum again 🎉

I'm on Fl Studio and for some reason it is not letting me drag in my own samples. Anyone else having this issue? Or did they already limit this feature in the demo?
