Spectral Synthesis – Introduction and Approaches

Spectral Synthesis – Introduction and Approaches

A couple weeks ago I made this quick video showing how to understand and use the spectrogram in a spectral synthesizer, demonstrated in Izotope Iris and Camel Audio Alchemy. I was inspired to make it after working with the new iZotope Iris synthesizer demo, and seeing many comments on line that made it clear spectrograms weren’t completely understood by many people.

Percheron VA Reaktor Synth

Percheron is the first instrument I’ve built in Native Instruments Reaktor. It’s basic but solid, and has about 20 patches included. I used many core nodes in it’s construction. You can download it from the NI Reaktor User Library. If you do, I would love to hear your feedback!
