Rapture pro expansion pack

I was looking around in the store for some new expansion packs to add to my arsenal. Iv already purchased the Mutant packs and enjoyed them. I was looking at the
Universal 120 V2.0expansion pack. Just wondering if anyone else has used it. Just would like to know if it has many significantly different sounds and variety or is all they all pretty much the just tweaked version of sounds already there.

    Also if there is any other packs that yall would recommend i would appreciate it, not necessarily just for Rapture pro or DP but Z3ta 2 as well or the sound center among the other Splat instruments.

    If you do not already own Rapture Pro, the Deluxe Sound Pack Bundle is a great value.

    I make some videos. This one shows how to do a physical loopback on the RME UCX to get many more equalizer nodes.

    ... I was looking at the Universal 120 V2.0 expansion pack. Just wondering if anyone else has used it. Just would like to know if it has many significantly different sounds and variety or is all they all pretty much the just tweaked version of sounds already there.

    I may be a little biased (I did work on the base set), but here's the link to what is included:  Universal 120 V2 Expansion Pack .
     
    I can tell you that everything in this pack is original work, from scratch.  We originally built this with a "construction kit" in mind, so there are a lot of reusable extras contained in the package.  Some of the shipping Multisamples were used as a basis for several presets, but there are another 500+ MB of new samples, plus ... 800 or so new presets?  (Hard to keep track).
     
    I also use the Galbanum expansion packs.  They're an excellent value.

    The Volume 2 presets were all made from new sample sources and programmed from scratch.  A substantial upgrade in both multisamples, wavetables, and programs based on those.  
     
    You should also check out the free Muz3uM packs for both Rapture and z3ta+.

    im not sure if its listed as an expansion pack or not int he program but usually in rapture pro to access your expansion packs by default its usually in the left column underneath "rapture pro library".. "dimension pro library" etc...

    I hope I didn't come across as shilling the expansion pack.  It's just something that I personally use all the time.  You should find it useful with your MIDI guitar and instincts for exploration. (And I've always wanted to do a Rapture XP specifically for 6 MIDI Channel guitar.)
     
    But U-120 was always a collaborative effort.  Chad and I talked about doing something like this for a long time, and we worked out Version 1.  Chad gets stuck with all of the installers, site maintenance, and dirty work.  Francesco and Chad put together the entire Version 2 and Bonus Presets packages.
     
    I haven't jumped to Rapture Pro, but Chad can help you out there.
    He has a much more intimate knowledge of those inner workings than I do.
    chadTom!  So good to see you here.

    What a long, strange trip this has been.  We've got a lot of catching up to do.  Like the story of how the quadrature MIDI LFO breadboard mutated into a series of Rapture 'barberpole' presets ...

    I definitely had a lot of fun exploring and tweaking tonight. :-)

    I also noticed that most of the patches I played with were pretty easy on the processor which is happy. I love getting great sounds without risking dropouts.

    I'd love to get a whole collection just for midi guitar. At one point I bought Craig Anderton's guitar collection, but these were for making a keyboard sound like a guitar. Oops. :-)

    I find myself wanting to mention Syntorial in this thread only because I continue to find it so helpful. Syntorial is an app for learning how to listen to synths and program them.

    MUZ3UM is unbelievable! Was thinking about getting some synth with ready to use patches, but with MUZ3UM expansions for Rapture and Zeta the search is over. Thanks for this recommendation!

    Re: Rapture pro expansion pack 2015/10/26 14:06:07 (permalink)
    So....has anyone put together a set of patches that is ..song based? there used to be a yamaha set that was called the 80s pack or something and had "journey" patches, "rush" patches (you know the tom sawyer sweep).  Van halen jump. etc.   I don't want to actually "program" but I would like to be able to reproduce those cover sounds?
     
    The 80s was one of the great periods of synthesizer music.  I should think someone sells or has developed something like this.  But I have not found it.  You rapture designers...ill take a separate ways, jump, tom sawyer, billy squire (in the dark) and "Yes" library ;)
