🙏🙏🙏

🤘Rock on! We can't wait to hear what you make with it.

We're so glad you dig it! Keep an eye out for another sale very soon ;-)

THERE’s A SALE NOW

@@Rabidbeastblade Where?

@@jesussaddle free with purchase from Plugin Boutique rn

Thanks Andi!

Thanks Luca! We're so glad you're enjoying CUBE. In addition to sample expansions, we're working on some cool new features, like the ability to drag and drop your own audio onto each corner of the cube, which should open up a lot of new possibilities. We'll also be releasing free preset pack expansions for all CUBE owners every couple months, so stay tuned!

@@lunacyaudio good ole vector morphing x2 in 3d ;-)....cool...I understand like omnisphere in the beginning the desire to have a closed system to sell expansion packs, but yeah you definitely need to open up the sampler to user content...especially at that price point...if its hise based shouldn't be a problem right? What would set it apart and fill a gap in the industry, would be to bundle an FX version that allows you to do vector morphing on audio streams assigned to the corners...you could even scale back to 2d and 4 inputs....i can point you to multiple threads on sites like KVR of customers looking for this...kudos for expanding upon the 30 yr old concept instead of just implementing the standard...but seems like it would be faster and simpler workflow to have a mouse trajectory draw and record function ,...and then a replay recorded trajectory with speed and direction controls

​@@jonathansaunders6697 Hi Jonathan! Thanks for such a detailed and insightful reply. We totally agree the user audio is an important component of the plugin, so that's our main priority at the moment. The CUBE FX concept is also something we've considered in depth, but haven't made it our focus quite yet. We'd love to explore that idea at some point in the future as we agree there's a lot of potential there. As for the orbit customization, we're working on another tutorial video just for orbits, which will explain all the different ways you can create and use our orbits system, including built-in per-axis oscillators, tables, and position steppers, as well as the ability to easily automate the orb position in your DAW. You can simply toggle Write Automation in your DAW and drag the orb (or use a special external controller like a Leap Motion hand sensor) to draw the position of the orb in real-time and it will write the path as automation data to the track. Hope this helps!

@@jonathansaunders6697 good point! User content will advertise the CUBE.

"The factory library in itself is more than enough to get endless sounds combinations. But, being hungry for new sounds I'm waiting for further expansions "... I think I will meditate on those thoughts for the three next months.....

Hi Thyme! Thanks for the kind words. The full version of the track is one of the audio demos on the CUBE product page called "Dimensional Artifacts": lunacy.audio/products/cube

Hey there! First, make sure CUBE is receiving MIDI input from Bitwig. You may want to try clicking the keyboard keys at the bottom of CUBE's interface to send MIDI input data to CUBE. If that doesn't work, we recommend adjusting your buffer size settings to see if that makes a difference :)

@@lunacyaudio I had to reinstall the sound samples, courtesy of your Support team's email. Thanks!

Hi there! Good question. CUBE needs a MIDI source to generate sound from the standalone app. Hope that helps :)

Hey there! Great question. If you import a user sample, CUBE will reference it's absolute file path, so you won't want to move the sample later. For this reason, we added the ability to import samples to a CUBE-specific folder, so CUBE will save that file in a place where it won't be moved.

Great question! We were not inspired by the Virsyn Cube synth, though we were generally aware that vector synthesis had been done before. Vector synthesis actually arose as a component of an effort to make a plugin that would be both a utility tool for working composers and producers and also a source of inspiration for all music makers.

Hi there! Are there any presets in particular where you notice this? You can increase the orbit intensity on Orbits page to increase the scale of the orbit pattern and this will make it more obvious. It will also depend on the types of sounds in each corner and how many corners are active.

@@lunacyaudio I can't find not one single preset where the orbit motion's intensity is sufficient for what I was hoping for. It almost seems like the orbit motion is just a tease of what CUBE is potentially capable of doing but it's not yet reaching its full potential.

Hey there! It sounds like you still need to install the factory samples. If you reach out to our support team they can send you the manual installer :) lunacy.audio/support

I’m having the same issue however I have already downloaded the sounds

I can see all the presets but no matter which one I pick no sound

Hi there! While we don't have a demo or a lite version, we do offer a 14-day return policy, so you can try the product and return it for a full refund in that period, no questions asked. We hope you'll give it a whirl!

Hey there! Our apologies for any trouble. You can download the manual sample installers in this support article: support.lunacy.audio/support/solutions/articles/67000723531-installing-core-samples That should fix the sound issue :)

Hi Issie! Could you please contact our support team with your computer specs and any more details about the issues so we can take a look? Thank you!

Hi Alec! Thanks for reaching out. This is the first we've heard of this issue, so we'd recommend checking if there are any MIDI modifiers on your keyboard device or on the track within your DAW. CUBE is definitely in tune with all other VSTs, so there shouldn't be an issues unless a setting has been tweaked. You may also want to check the settings in CUBE: Under the Engine tab there is a knob labeled "Master Tune" which allows for different Hz tuning for various regions. Apart from that, you may also want to check if you have any Pitch Bend data active, as this could affect CUBE as it would other synths. Let us know if that helps!

@@lunacyaudio that's amazing, thank you so much for the reply. I'll check that out tomorrow, i just got a new midi keyboard too so probably that's the reason. Thank you so much ❤️

@@alecpercy91 Happy to help! Let us know if you need further assistance :)

@@lunacyaudio thank you I will :)

Also will there be updates in the future considering user requests? I'm keen to see some additions like controllable percentage/selection based parameter randomisation options and also modulable panning so I can where in the spatial field these sounds are moving. I really like what you've done so far, just a few things missing which could really benefit the user experience.

Hi @@dreamaera! Thanks for your interest in CUBE. At the moment, there are a few randomization options for randomizing sounds, orbits, and FX, but we are working on a much deeper randomization panel which will do exactly what you describe and more. People really love the randomization in CUBE, so we definitely want to expand that functionality soon. As for user audio, you can load samples into a user folder for CUBE and then mix and match them with the factory content. There is no randomization for user audio yet, but that will be coming in an update soon. We get a lot of user requests, so we do our best to prioritize the ones which will benefit the largest number of people, so the randomization update is at the top of the list. Hope that helps!

@@lunacyaudio Well, I am just watching this video trying to decide whether or not to buy Cube and you just answered the questions I had (asked by someone else). I believe this is a sign that this synth and I have a date with destiny! LOL

@@obo_9942 It was written in the stars 🤩 Let us know if you have any other questions!

@@lunacyaudio Thanks for the response, good to hear your working on a deeper set of tools :) randomisation really is useful, and having that in conjunction with personal samples will certainly aid the creative process and help build unique creations. I also have one more request which you may have already received, modulable panning for each of the 8 samplers, unsure why panning seems to be left off the mod matrix, unless I'm mistaken. It would be a very useful addition. Please keep up the good work :)

Hi @Xcarnation! Most users are very surprised by how low the CPU usage is for CUBE. We've optimized the engine to ensure no processing power is wasted, including the graphical components, which actually run on the machine's GPU and have no effect on the plugin's CPU usage. Based on your specs, you can easily run CUBE on your machine. We also offer a 14-day return policy as well, so you can try the product risk-free. Hope that helps!

@@lunacyaudio Thank u for the quick reply !

One upside of sample-based instruments is that they are traditionally have low CPU footprint. Not every time, but mostly. This is especially noticeable if you're playing pad chords, where a softsynth has to ask CPU to calculate every voice for it, a sample engine just takes a bunch of them. Watch your RAM, though. I doubt this boy is RAM-heavy, but everything is RAM-heavy if you add enough instances. :)

Hi David! Funny enough, we actually first started developing CUBE in Kontakt and quickly realized that what we wanted to do with modulation and OpenGL graphics was impossible within the Kontakt framework, so we decided to build our own plugin entirely. This allows us to provide our users with regular updates, new sample and preset expansions, and even new custom FX or features not available in Kontakt 😉

@@lunacyaudio could you make a kontakt library as well

​@@davidvalens3337 Unfortunately, CUBE is not possible to program within Kontakt because Kontakt is too limited for the scope of the engine, but we can assure you CUBE is definitely better as a standalone VST and gives us a lot more flexibility. Hope that helps!

@@lunacyaudio what about a light version for kontakt

@@davidvalens3337 This thing has way more horsepower than any Kontakt library I've ever seen. It's a beautiful VST - why do you want it as a Kontakt Library so badly? Just curious, maybe I'm missing something with Kontakt!

Hi DJRexParis! You can definitely use your own samples! With our current version you can use our User Audio feature by dragging and dropping your own samples directly onto the CUBE corner sample editors

Hi Scott! Great question. Yes, you can absolutely use your own samples in the full version of CUBE. We have a video tutorial about this here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i7mJd9KYv9vUmmQ.html

Yes! You can use WAV and SFZ files in the full version of CUBE.

We appreciate the feedback!
