If you want the project file from today's video, become a patron with a link in the description! Synthmaster 2 👉 bit.ly/3pauoKF

I use synthmaster for years now. Never fails and amazing sounds.

A very underrated synth. I discovered it at NAMM a few years ago and immediately bought it. The price is silly for the quality of what you get. Great video!

I have Synthmaster 2 and it keeps surprising me in positive ways. For example, select the additive osc, load a drum sample per partial, use the sequencer in drum mode and - yep a complete sample-based drum machine. Combine it with another layer and you can have those VPS Avenger backing track vibes, if that's your type of thing.

Thanks for this. I’ve been using synthmaster for over a year and I am just amazed at the depth of functionality that this provides. It has an incredible feature set and I’m not sure there is anything else that comes close in terms of pure capability. But I am frustrated by the outdated documentation and lack of comprehensive up to date tutorial videos. When you have something as awesomely powerful as synthmaster then you really have to supply some support to explain how everything works and where all the features reside because it’s not all intuitive. If it had that then I think it would deservedly be the #1 soft synth available today because in terms of features and sound then it really has it all.

Synthmaster is great, really underrated synth, sounds amazing, and has a great price especially if you snag it on sale.

I have bough Synthmaster 1 & 2 bundle in 2021 and I don't regret a bit one of the best value synths out there because of it's power and the amount of great presets you get.

Something I try to do is set rules about what plugins to use in any given project. In addition to having it solve both the "analysis paralysis" and "blank canvas" issues, it's also an opportunity to revisit various plugins that I haven't had a chance to use, either in a while or not at all. And I guess I have another thing to add to the wishlist =D

With so many synths that are near equally amazing now - what make synthmaster unique is that it’s not pretending to be some sort of special sauce. It’s like £5 runs on an iPhone. The magic is your hands, the synth is just an awesome tool. Love it.

I really should dig Synthmaster one and 2 out again. I am a bad sufferer of plugin aquisition syndrome, and have a perennial VSTi collecting habit. The trouble with having quite a few good softsynths is that each is a serious distraction from spending time with other plugins.

I found you originally through your synthmaster videos! i had just gotten it on sale and had no idea how to do anything its nice to see you revisiting it, and i figured i probably will too

I bought that thing 5 years ago... still my goto synth. If I have no special other idea. Synthmaster sounds great and is extremely versatile.

This inspired me to look beyond the presets in Synthmaster. Homework indeed!

absolutely adore this demo track. I keep forgetting I own Synthmaster so maybe its time to revisit 😅

Certainly very inspiring. Thank you. I have synthmaster, and even if I dig deep into it, I didn't knew some of the functions you spotted.

That demo track is REALLY good man. Love all the feels in there. Synthmaster 2 is dang good, innit? :)

The sound demo in the beginning reminds me of the title music from the show Sense 8 (Netflix). Re-watching it currently. 😊

I just purchased the Synthmaster 3 upgrade (a whole, whopping $29) and that has given me access to an alpha version complete with a temporary skin. Yes, I will be beta testing for free but, I don't mind. SM3 is looking like an amazing upgrade. It is now a fully modular system complete with a module/node graph where you can connect pretty much anything to anything. It's not a true modular synth in that you are not directly routing CVs and audio via wires but, you can rout audio signals to pretty much any other audio input in whatever order you want including many into one and one into many. It'll be really interesting to see how it develops from here until final release.

I wanted to point out the excellent screen splitting effect you used this time. It look very nice and pro, congrats !!! I love your channel content, bravo !!👏👏👏

Just revisited this synth as I bought a new pc and had to install it. Have to agree it's very good and has some great sounds. It will work well sitting alongside my Cherry Audio synths. 😎

I will be getting back into this synth after this. Thanks for some inspiration

I'm a plugin hoarder. I love playing with new things with buttons and dials. Synthmaster was my first paid synth. Over the years, my collection of non-free synths has increased massively, but I love going back to good old Synthmaster. It's s bit buggy, it acts weird, but I can always manage to make any sound in it. The greatest thing about it is how it sounds. Sometimes it doesn't sound quite right, but this also tends to translate into sounding way more alive. Call it analog (I wouldn't know), call it character, but I love it. If I had to chose just one synth in my collection, I'd choose this one.

For some odd reason, this popped up again in my feed. Definitely worth another watch, and I'm curious to hear your thoughts/patches related to V3 now that the Beta is out. ☕🎹

DEfinitely so underrated. It was one of my first purchased and I have kind of left it over too :) I am definitely using that again.

That had some cool sounds and capabilities. I stopped the video for a bit to play presets in the free player. Think I will end up with a copy of Synthmaster in the near future.

It's my go to on ipad for creative practice. I use it less so on my desktop as I have the Roland subscription and tons of Arturia stuff. I would say that the Synthmaster stuff sounds very analog.

Synthmaster 2 has absolute potential. I'm just waiting for their presentation at NAMM 2022 on the synth.

3:30 wow..... I see some Turkish authors Edit : Wait, I've just checked their site. The creators of the plugin are Turkish !....... cooool

Came to this video following a link from KV331. That track that you put together is spectacular. While I've scored a handful of budget films, I've yet to get a project that calls for music as cool as that. Thanks so much for sharing.

Synthmaster is a great synth. The only problem is its name, which is epic level terrible. I use synthmaster all the time. It's VERY good.

beautiful melody, and great tutorial

Glad to see Synthmaster getting some discussion! It is a stellar synth! 🤘🏻👍

Used Synthmaster One (same engine as SM 2) for a few years, great sounding synth but the UI shat the bed big time. I still use it from time to time but Dune is my go to. Nice video as always👍

"I have way too many plugins" not me! I only have 46 different compressors and I definitely use them all! Haha. Ha. Haaaaaa.

Really good job!!! Love the tune!

Really love the "epic" pad... I'm gonna go get me some of the same now 😋

Kudos on the track you made, dude 💪

This might be the most Cameron intro in the history of Cameron intros. I almost spit my coffee out... :)

If I should choose only one synth, it is SynthMaster. It sounds just epic, and many library sounds blow me off my socks! Thanks for nice review :-)

Looks like a synth suitable for ambient music

What an intro! lol amazing!

Love your supernatural music in opening!

I've stuck with my Synthmasters through Pigments and Vital and on and on .... Just last week I did a Thing with one of the presets, tweaked a bit. There's such a depth to the sounds they can make, both One and 2.9 There's this guy Venus Theory that made some patches for SM1 😜👍 Right now though, I'm busy rediscovering Sample Mangling with all the lovely Granular toys I keep finding, but that's another story ...

Very inspiring, great sounds

I have been speaking very highly of this synth for quite some time now. It does feel a little complicated to use sometimes.

This is in my top 5 synths no problem.

love the features, love the sound, hate the interface. No use of color to help identify who's modulating what. This is the perfect synth to implement "saturn rings". NI came up with what I think is the perfect solution to modulation confusion with the original Massive- some 13 years ago. It baffles me why it's not implemented more often.

I use both synthmaster 1 and 2 in my tracks. Great synth that often have good sales. BTW in terms of old favorites do you ever use Rob Papen software? Ive been using them for years and find myself when im at a loss for a sound I always go back to them.

I have never tried Synthmaster before. Maybe I will now. It looks great for textural movement and is probably a really good tool for ambient work. It's a bit odd that the key and velocity mapping tools are available only in the iOS skin though - are you certain about that? I find it quite surprising that such a standard and useful feature would be mostly hidden.

I bought Synthmaster One this year, but I hardly use it. This is because of some illogical (imo) flaws in the user interface, which make you lose too much time. Figuring out things soundwise can be frustrating but serve a purpose. Figuring out the (il)logic of interfaces is a waste of time. I'm not unsympathetic towards Synthmaster One at all , but I end up picking other plugins that are more intuitive.

I don't waste time any more. I know I'm going to enjoy these vids, so I click 'like' straight away! Hmm. Maybe not a good idea as now I want to give this an extra like.. Thanks Cam.

This is my favourite bro martain Garrix used this previously

I hope for a new gui in v3 some features are so hidden it’s a shame… and hopefully a drad and drop modulation system like in massive or serum

Thanks, Cam. I reinstalled iback onto the MAC todayy--and the every FREAKING expansion pack they offer. I shelved a good time back, cuz...gotta get the next great thing, right. Maybe I missed it, but...did you run your samples THROUGH synth master OR are they a track unto themselves? I'm cooking and doing this at the same time, so partial (no pun) attention. I told you: you're a natural born Teacher!

This is one of my favorite episode thus far of "Bruh, why do you always look so tired" 😅

Synthmaster 2 is great. What sucks is that I have a nasty bug in Bitwig (up to 4.1) that causes Bitwig modulator values to jump all over the place when I open the synth. I also have this bug with other synths (Nexus) and Bitwig developers just point to the VST developers :(

Having several plugins and cycling through them is great for my ADD brain. It's better than buying a new one every single time.

Heads up! KV331 is having a GREAT sale on their stuff right now, and there's a total bundle for $134. I'm NOT a 'paid spokesperson' for these guys, I'm just letting you know that this is a great chance to get this entire package if you are into soft synths. I have a LOT of synths; over 1200 VSTs; This really is one of the most powerful out there. It's in the same league with soft-synths like Pigments, Falcon2 and others.

Great synth indeed and the ios version is blazing smooth

This is a fire plugin

so do you think synthmaster 2 or phaseplant is better for synth/sampler hybrid ?

00:22 glad I missed that trend

sounds good this fella, cheers

Synthmaster is slept on!! I think player is slept on too

Sounds really good

Your voice is awesome dude

GoodStuff Great Inspiration 📝🔥🔥🔥

amazing 5creation

Nice presentation! :)

i love synthmaster

I own SynthMaster One & 2 but don't really use them as they are still buggy despite numerous updates, only VSTs that crash my Ableton projects. They need to volume match their presets, some are really loud, I nearly blew my speakers going through some of the bass presets.

It's not tired, it's zen.

0:23 Since when are dinosaurs considered emo? I love dinos!

I only have Synthmaster 2 on iPad :( it's perhaps difficult to connect it with Mac

Great synth for sure but tbh I prefer Synthmaster One. 😎

Its a great synth but ive always felt it looks kind of cartoony visually which maybe stops it from coming across as the serious player it should be viewed as.

Is that 2000 presets with the full bundle or at the opening price? I have a pile of synth plugins and not sure I am that excited about adding yet another that does what I can already do.. then again, I am an addict.

Dune 3 is the king bro's and sis's!

Sounds cool! another synth to ... skip :) focusing on hardware synth I have, plus Arturia's V and Pigments plus a few: ANA2, Omni, FafFilters. Enjoyed watching your Synthmaster demos and a reminder on getting creative and learning what you have in hands!

I spent some time learning modular synthesis. I had bought this plug-in years ago before messing around with modular. With that new knowledge base, this synth, which seemed "overcomplicated" to me years ago, is really starting to get the juices bubbling again.

Nice

I'm sure this app will suffice a lot of time before I have the money to buy a real hardware synthesizer. I was thinking about the Minibrute 2s since I already have a couple controllers here. But here in Brazil everything is pretty pricey, unfortunately.

Mac Quayle style

Why are you so awesome?

Hello Venus! Thank you for great video! I have a question - do you collect tips, tricks, techniqes and etc to something like database? Because i think, human head isn't very stable tool for creating great, for example, synth presets, or song hooks. But you can combine some techniqes to increase chance of getting good result. Anywhere, i will repeat question - do you collect tricks to database, and what type of sorting will you recommend?

I can't even get synthmaster 1 to work on my desktop. The ios versions are buggy as all hell. They call it synthmaster because once you buy it you become their slave.

Weren't they gonna release a V3?

Great synth. Horribly unstable here.

does anyone reading this have any recommendations for a simple free minimalist synth plugin? I am a guitar player and just want to play around with a synth but all of them seem to go for maximalism with tons of knobs and stuff. I don't really have the desire to go all in and learn that stuff but want to play with sweeping textures, etc. thanks.

Ok

i dont like (soft) synths with one million pages with one million options which you can modulate with one million modulators.

We already have Surge and now Vital: I do not know... is there point for existence for synths like this? If it is paid product I think it should give something more than free product. Falcon, Phaseplant, i think have that, but they are too expensive toys. I know what Pigments have over Vital (but honestly if i did not have Pigments before Vital came out - i am not sure would i buy Pigments). Synthmaster vs Vital - for money I only get skeuomorphic interface, which i personally do not find neither clear nor attractive.

we need cc subscribe.

great synth terrible customer support...
