CARA MEMBUAT VSTi

Mungkin ada teman yang tau bagaimana cara membuat Vsti khususnya synth...
sebelum saya menuliskannya, abang2 tau apa itu VSTi ????
VSTi kalau orang kampung seperti saya mengatakan Virtual sound instrument, tp kalau opung wiki bilang virtual sound technology instrument

tanpa basa basi lagi bang, langsung aja
yang di butuhkan :

PC atau Laptop
Dengan spek, prosesor minimum dualcore
Memori / ram minimum 2GB
Hardisk 250 dah cukup
OS Windows
Software Synth Maker

langkah2 :
1. buka Synth Maker, nanti akan ada tampilan awal synth maker dan klik new pada toolbar  - file

selanjutnya akan ada tampilan seperti yang di atas

1. langkah ke 2 adalah membuat program element
untuk memudahkan saya kasih gambarnya seperti ini

langkah ke 3 adalah wiring...
sebelum melakukan wiring abang harus memasukkan dulu midi in, bisa di search di kolom search pada element...
selanjutnya memasukkan module
langkah selanjutnya memasukkan direct output, jangan lupa sewaktu memasukkan midi innya di klik pc keyboard biar bisa di test menggunakan keyboard dari PC... begitu juga direct outnya :D

langkah selanjuutnya abang harus mengklik 2 kali pada module sehingga terbuka jendela tab baru yang kosong. dan lanjut memasukkan midi in trus abang memasukkan midi to poly..
langkah selanjutnya abang harus memasukkan denoiser sebanyak 2, dan di lanjutkan memasukkan mulsti oscilator...

langkah berikutnya abang harus memasukkan ADSR sebanyak 2 buah, dan memasukkan amp gain, combiner, effect ( seperti reverb, delay dan lain2).

langkah berikutnya abang harus memasukkan stereo amp dan di ikuti dengan memasukkan module out...
untuk wiring dalam tahap ini, abang bisa melihat gambar ini aja ya

langkah selanjutnya adalah kembali ke tab awal di mana ada 3 element awal, yaitu midi in, module dan direct out..

nah di halaman itu yang harus abang lakukan adalah menghubungkan midi in ke module, dari module ke direct sound out

untuk hasilnya yang saya buat seperti ini gambarnya

untuk hasilnya bisa di download disini :

tri2KtableSM.dat
saw2KtableSM.dat

hasil samplenya saya buat baru 2 sound aja, untuk menggunakannya copy semua filenya masukkan di drive vsti plugin anda.. contoh : C://programfile/steinberg/vsti plugin

maaf kalau jelek ya bang. maklum baru belajar :D

Membuat Virtual Aksesoris Sound system pada Organ Tunggal (OT)

Membuat Virtual Aksesoris Sound system pada Ogan Tunggal (OT)

mungkin sebelumnya banyak rekan2 atau abang / kakak-kakak awak yang sudah tau atau ingin mengetahui bagaimana systemnya.
Dan sangat banyak sekali khushusnya para pengusaha atau Player yang ingin tampil keren atau ingin memaksimalkan perangkat keyboardnya yang kurang baik dengan membawa laptop ke panggung OT
baik itu untuk memutar sampler atau sampling atau juga bahkan hanya untuk memutar AUDIO seperti MP3 dan lainnya yang penting GAYA...

tapi kali ini saya membuat tulisan bukan untuk sampling, karena artikel yang berhubungan dengan sampling sudah pernah saya tuliskan, yaitu cara mengkonekkan keyboard ke pc yang bisa di lihat disini : http://www.ferrysiregar.com/2011/08/cara-mengkonekkan-keyboard-ke-pc.html dengan menjadikan PC / LAPTOP sebagai sound module yang bisa di lihat disini http://www.ferrysiregar.com/2011/08/menjadikan-pc-laptop-sebagai-sound.html , tapi untuk Virtual aksesories sound system.

apa itu virtual aksesories sound system ???

Virtual aksesories sound system itu, dimana kita menggunakan equalizer, crossover, compressor, limiter, Speaker Management
dan lainnya secara virtual atau menggunakan software..

apa aja yang di butuhkan ya bang atau adek.. itu mungkin pertanyaan anda.
yang di butuhkan :

1. PC atau Laptop yang memiliki spect :
- memori / ram : minimal 4Gb
- LCD : khusus untuk PC
- Hardisk : 350 Gb
- Prosecor minimal di atas core2duo semakin tinggi semakin baik.
- Software Windows ( hal ini karena saya pakai windows jadi sebagai OPTION)
2. - soundcard yang berchanel input dan output yang banyak
3. - software Daw seperti nuendo
4. - Software VST
5. - patch bays
6. - Driver

langkah 2x selanjutnya melakukan penginstalan...
1. instal windows xp pada komputer anda
2. instal software daw seperti nuendo pada komputer / laptop anda
3. instal Driver soundcard pada PC / LAPTOP anda
4. Instal VST pada Laptop / PC anda

setelah melakukan penginstalan, selanjutnya mengkonekkan perangkat..
colokkan soundcard ke PC / laptop anda, pastikan pada saat mengkonekkannya PC / LAPTOP dalam kondisi mati
selanjutnya hidupkan PC / LAPTOP anda...
untuk soundcard yang berinput dan output banyak mungkin ini bisa jadi solusinya, tp sayang untuk saat ini saya belum menemukan soundcard yang USB yang memilki in dan out yang banyak

langkah selanjutnya buka nuendo anda, dan melakukan configurasi....
caranya :
1. buka nuendo seperti pada gambar :

langkah ke 2 klik tulisan device dan pilih VST CONNECTION, yang gambarnya seperti ini di bawah ini :

selanjutnya klik add bus inputnya dan akan kebuka tampilan seperti ini

selanjutnya setelah memasukkan ADD bus di input, pilih di tab sebelah untuk outnya
dengan cara yang sama, yaitu mengklik kembali add bus nya, sebagai catatan nilai count itu, tergantung dari banyaknya input dan output yang di miliki soundcard anda...

setelah melakukan configurasi, saatntya kembali ke halaman utama NUENDO
buat track audio baru sebanayk jumlah yang di inginkan sebagai contoh saya buat 2 track...
bnasik dasar NUENDO bisa di lihat di sini : http://www.ferrysiregar.com/2011/08/tutorial-belajar-nuendo-4.html . selanjutnya klik out pada track dan ganti menjadi out1, 2 dan seterusnya di tiap track yang berbeda
seperti pada gambar berikut :

langkah berikutnya nya TEKAN F3 pada keyboard anda maka akan keluar tampilan mixer NUENDO seperti yang di atas :
langkah selanjutnya klik symbol e pada track yang ingin di masukkan plugin FX di input tracknya... seperti pada gambar ini dan pilih pluginnya :

setelah anda masukkan plugin di input, lakukan hal yang sama di out per tracknya, untuk memasukan plugin atau sound system aksesorisnya seperti compressor, limiter dan lain2nya dengan cara yang sama, dan hasilnya juga seperti pada gambar yang DI ATAS...

biar semuanya dapat berfungsi maka, di tiap tracknya anda bisa menekan symbol monitor yang di lambangkan dengan gambar speaker atau dengan tombol record yang di symbol dengan tanda bulat seperti pada gambar :

setelah melakukan semuanya, maka anda harus menyimpannya, karena kalau main di tempat lain, tinggal membuka datanya aja,, cukup mudah bukan, jadi anda tidak perlu mensetting ulang alat anda jika bermain atau perform di tempat yang sama :D
jadi dalam hal ini, anda hanya cukup membawa :
1. player
2. vocalis.
3. komputer dan soundcard
4. power
5. speaker
6. stand speaker (optional)
7. keyboard
8. standbook (optional)
9. LCD
10. Dompet untuk pembayaran setelah selesai perform :D wakakkakakak

Untuk lebih keren lagi dalam mengkoneksikan input dan outputnya, anda bisa menggunakan tambahan alat yang namanya PACTHBAYS,, sebagai contoh ini gambarnya :

Selamat Bekerja dan mencoba ya bang, kakak, adek, tulang, amang baru, dan lain2 :D, kalau dah berhasil dan suksess jangan lupa kedan ( kawan ).

- DSP COMPRESSOR
- DSP LOUDNESS
- GATE
- LIMITER
- Dan lain-lain...

tapi dalam penulisan ini.. kalian tidak perlu memahami dan mempelajarinya lebih dalam, karena tulisan saya ini sangat bersifat instant,
mengapa saya bilang instant ???... alasannya karena kkita menggunakan software yang dimana kita dapat mengambil sampler mastering
dari seorang sound engineer dunia tanpa harus menemuinya...
trus bagaimana caranya ?????

Siapkan alat yang di perlukan :

1. Komputer / Laptop dengan OS wINDOWS xP
spect yang di perlukan :
- hardisk minimal 350
- Ram minimal 2Gb tanpa sharing VGA
- Soundcard External, minimal soundcard onboard juga boleh asalkan terpaksa :D
- Software Audio Mastering System...
- Software DAW untuk compresi data menjadi wave audio format dengan resolusi 16 bit

2. Langkah-langkah yang harus di lakukan

ambil sample audio high quality yang anda punya misalkan dengan format mp3, maka anda harus merubahnya dulu dengan software DAW
seperti nuendo, dan jadikan menjadi wave dengan out yang stereo dan 16 bit

selanjutnya buka Software AUTO AUDIO MASTERING SUITE SYSTEM...
lihat pada gambar berikut sebagai contoh :

3. Langkah selanjutnya adalah memasukkan sample lagu tadi yang akan kita jadikan referensi untuk matering lagu... biar kelihatan apa aja nih gambarnya saya berikan

Selanjutnya klik ANALYZED AUDIO AND LOAD SOURCE yang ada tepat di tengah aplikasi AAMSnya..
tunggu beberapa saat hingga selesai..
sebagai catatan jangan gunakan AAMS nya untuk menggunakan fitur yang ada disana ( dalam kata lain jangan ngeklik menu yang lain yang membuat prosess pengambilan data terhambat )..

Setelah selesai melakukan analyzed audio, anda simpan filenya ke folder yang telah anda buat.. atau langsung di system aams yang di program file / source..
Formatnya nanti yang akan keluar menjadi AAM....

4. langkah selanjutnya memasukkan file yang akan di mastering langkahnya klik master pada AAMS.. selanjutnya pilih master single. dan klik auto audio master single file... nanti akan ke buka jendela baru seperti ini :

dan klik di drive dan folder mana data audio wave yang 16 bit tadi di simpan...
selanjutnya akan terbuka jendela baru lagi, dimana anda di kasih pilihan untuk referensi mastering.. pilih di drive dan folder mana file AAM yang pertama kali anda buat kemudian klik open...
seperti pada gambar berikut :

5. Langkah selanjutnya adalah menunggu prosess hingga selesai.. dan lihat hasilnya...
anda dapat juga melihat system data referensinya berupa data word.. dimana terdapat banyak nilai untuk.. DSP EQUALIZER, COMPRESSOR dan lainnya...

Selamat mencoba :D

Tutorial (Belajar ) Nuendo 4

Tutorial ini saya buat semata-mata hanya untuk berbagi pengetahuan saya kepada anda.. semoga dengan adanya artikel ini, bisa memudahkan anda dalam bekerja… langsung aja ya brooooooo…………


Software keluaran Steinberg ini berfungsi di tujukan untuk Profesional Recording…. akan tetapi tidak di luar kemungkinan Nuendo 4 dapat di gunakan tuk hal sederhana dalam pekerjaan…. misalnya tuk dalam pembuatan SQUENCER… dimana software ini banyak digunakan oleh kalangan anak band tuk membuat demo mapun hal yg saya bilang tadi…..
oke kita mulai saja… karena anda pasti dah tidak sabar tuk mengetahuinya…
Disini saya menulisnya untuk tutorial membuat SQUENCER / SAMPLING yg di gunakan untuk back up music sound, lagu- lagu party atau rnb ataupun music yg gak mungkin di jangkau dengan keterbatasan personils ( band cafe )
langkah pertama yang harus anda lakukan adalah dengan membuka new project atau pekerjaan baru/ thalaman baru,, terserah lah anda mau mengartikan apa,, pokoknya gambarnya seperti ini :


jadi setelah  dibuka new project anda akan mendapatkan halaman yg kosong, untuk mengisinya kamu tinggal memasukkan track baru. atau ada tinggal mengklik file dah pilih import, setelah terbuka folder computer anda, anda tinggal memilih file yg akan di jadikan guide, untuk membuat Squence lagu tersebut……
selanjutnya apa yg harus dilakukan ?????
Hal yg harus anda lakukan adalah melakukan pencarian tempo, dan mengaktifkan metronom dengan mengklik tulisan klik di navigator hingga berwarna orange… seperti gambar ini : jangan lupa pastikan tombol metronom dah aktif… dan pada tulisan tempo menunjukkan tulisan FIXED, saya juga menyarankan anda tuk mencari birama lagu tersebut… disini saya memberikan contoh 4/4 dengan tempo 130.070. . setelah guide terdeteksi dengan metronome secara benar… selanjutnya kita memasukkan file midi atau pun wafe yg akan kita gunakan sebagai drum… disini untuk project SQUENCER BABY.. saya menggunakan midi sebagai drumnya dan memasukkan file2 yang sudah saya buat di software lain dengan format wave. untuk contohnya seperti gambar berikut :


sudah di lihatkan friend ????
nah untuk penjelassannya, di track 1 saya gunain sebagai guide, di track 2 file yang saya inserta berupa wave, yg saya gunakan sebagai sound synth… untuk pembuatannya saya menggunaklan software lain
di track midi, saya gunakan untuk drum dan pizzicato strings….. yg saya gunakan sebagai komposisi mini untuk orchestra… cara membuatnya dengan mengklik gambar pena atau pensil dan membuat drag jarak bar yg akan kita buat. setelah di buat. tinggal bro double klik dan terbuka piano roll, nah di piano rool itu kamu membuat notasinya… dengan Quantize yg anda tentukan sendiri
setelah semua project baik dari audio track dan midi track telah selesai,, saatnya melakukan mixing atau mebalancekan, 1 track dengan track lainnya, dengan membuka mixer… atau secara cepat, dengan menggunakan aplikasi yg di samping track yg ada pilih. untuk contoh mixernya seperti ini :


Setelah terbuka, kamu tinggal menurunkan dan menaikkan volume untuk membalance semua track,, untuk editing mastering, saya akan membahasnya lain kali… setelah selesai melakukan balancing, kembali ke project depan nuendo4… kamu harus melakukan penarikan terhadap kursor dari kiri ke kanan hingga batas akhir bar lagu tersebut… dan lakukan export file melalui menu file,,, kamu itnggal memilih mixdown berupa wave atau lainnya……
Selamat Berkarya Friend ………………………….

Korg Pa 500 Arranger

korg pa 500

Arranger Keyboards

Introducing the Korg Pa500

The “Baby Blue” – The Professional Arranger at an entry level price
For the musician, composer, performer and entertainer, the interactive Pa500 arranger keyboard is the perfect musical partner. Like its big brothers – the Pa800 and the Pa2X Pro – the Pa500 uses our RX (Real eXperience) technology to deliver a sound unprecedented in an ordinary arranger keyboard. With exclusive Korg features such as the XDS Dual Sequencer, intuitive TouchView interface, quarter-tone on-the-fly and a four way joystick for realistic articulation, the only thing really missing is a big price tag.
Stunning Sound in a Sensational Professional Arranger Keyboard
It all begins with sound. Based on the EDS (Extended Definition Synthesis) engine found in the Korg M3, Pa800 and Pa2XPro, the Pa500 provides 80 voices of polyphony and an awe-inspiring quality of sound. Over 880 fully editable sounds are preloaded (including a full GM soundset and 56 drum kits), representing a full range of musical instruments from almost every genre – each exploding with depth, nuance, subtlety, accuracy and richness. The User area has space for up to 128 user sounds and 64 drum kits.
Listento demos of the Pa500′s amazing sounds.
Effects Everywhere
For many years, Korg music workstations, synthesizers and digital recording studios have included outstanding studio quality effects that are simply spectacular. In that same tradition, the Korg Pa500 accompaniment keyboard offers four stereo processors plus a Final semi-parametric, three-band EQ containing a treasure trove of effects, from rich reverbs and dazzling delays to guitar-type modeling effects from Korg’s renowned REMS series – 124 different effects in all. And you’ll appreciate the separate three-band EQ on each track so you can shape the tone for that perfect sound.
A Professional Arranger Done with Style
No doubt about it: Korg’s Style programming is world class. The Pa500 delivers a deluxe set of styles, programmed by some of the leading arrangers in the world; each of whom worked according to their musical strengths. The result is over 320 preloaded Styles that provide unparalleled realism and detail, adding anything from tasteful guitar picking, a tight bass and drum groove, a powerhouse R & B rhythm section and all the way up to a full orchestra! Styles follow your timing, voice leading and chord changes to create an amazingly defined musical performance in real-time. With up to eight parts, four variations, three intros/count-in, three fills/break and three endings, each Style is a complete musical environment. Additional parts or “riffs” can be sequenced and triggered in real time using the assignable Pads. Advanced features such as Syncro Start/Stop, Fade In/Out, Assignable Pads, Tap Tempo and Manual Bass allow you to spontaneously add complex and professional touches to your performances.
Guitar mode
Creating convincing guitar parts from a keyboard has never been easy – until now! When creating a guitar part for your Style, you can chose a chord, capo position, and literally transform the keyboard into the fretted strings of the chord to allow realistic picking patterns, strums, chokes, slides, hammer-ons and other “guitar-specific” artifacts. The result is stunning. Best of all, the Pa500 home keyboard can automatically enhance the guitar tracks of existing Standard Midi Files.
All together now
Need to switch sounds fast? Four STS (Single Touch Settings) buttons allow you to have up to four sounds split and layered across the keyboard and switch them all instantly with a single button press. The STS assignments can also be saved independently for each Style. Each of the 256 Performance settings can instantly recall the Style, Sounds, effects, tempo, key and scale used to perform a particular song.
Creative sequencing scenarios
In addition to traditional “track at a time” workstation sequencing, the Backing Sequencer of this interactive keyboard allows you to create songs quickly and easily by capturing multiple Style driven parts at once. You don’t need to be a master programmer – even beginners can write their own songs in minutes. In fact, you don’t even need to play at all! Using the Step Edit/Entry feature, you can simply type in the chord changes, fills and style changes in step-time – a big boost for arrangers and non-keyboardists. This quick approach to programming is also useful in the studio for creating professional, great-sounding backing music for commercial, film, video, multimedia or internet applications. The sequencer provides massive editing power – you can even edit the tone parameters of each track.
Non-stop entertainment
With Korg’s XDS Dual Sequencer, one can load as the other plays, and a DJ-style cross fader can blend between them, providing a seamless, continuous musical performance. The Pa500 arranger keyboard can also playback SMF (Standard Midi Files), Karaoke files, and GM (General MIDI) files – and is able to display lyrics in most popular karaoke formats. There is also a practical Marker function to allow you to jump directly to a given position in the song: you can fix the markers using the internal sequencer (or using a computer based one – the marker format is standard) and then remix your favorite songs during a live performance for added spontaneity.
Korg’s Expanding SongBook Feature
The exciting SongBook feature was developed to make your life easier while playing live. The SongBook is a Musical Database, completely user programmable, containing all the settings needed to play a particular song. You have only to search for the song you would like to play by Song Title, Genre, Artist, Tempo, etc. and press “play”. Each SongBook entry will instantly recall every setting you’ve saved in order to play that song perfectly – Sounds, Style, Performance, Volumes, Muted Tracks, FX settings, Easy Edit, STS settings, Master Transpose and more. This indispensable musical feature is unique to Korg.
Less is more
With all the technological power packed inside, it was vital that we also made the Pa500 arranger keyboard easy to understand and easy to use. But we went even further, creating an instrument that provides an intuitive, musical, fast, foolproof experience. With our amazing TouchView display you can simply think, see and touch the panel for easy and intuitive control. So that musicians of all levels can make great music quickly, there are two interface modes: Easy and Expert. Easy mode shows only the essential elements with bright, bold icons – useful for beginners or playing live – while Expert mode provides full editing control. And when you need more information, check out the on-board contextual Help System – in any of seven languages! In addition to 61-velocity sensing keys, the Pa500 arranger keyboard provides a four-way joystick, assignable switch, assignable slider, assignable pedal jack and four pads provide the tools to spice up your performance by changing effect settings, adding or muting parts, slowing the tempo, or even adding “mini-sequenced” solo, arpeggio, or backing riffs. Nothing stands between you and your professional performance.
Save it for later
In addition to providing a USB/MIDI computer connection for moving and saving data, the Pa500 can also save and read data from SD / MMC memory cards for instant access to your custom data, MIDI files and songs. The back panel also features MIDI (In, Out), Audio Ins (1, 2) and Outs (L, R), headphone jack, plus a damper pedal and an assignable pedal connection.
All-in-one
Hiding inside is a full stereo sound system with two double cone speakers in a bass reflex enclosure for the best sound in a small box. The Pa500 is completely self-contained and easily transportable – whether rushing to perform live in front of any size audience, jamming with friends, or teaching a new tune to the other players. We couldn’t fit any more fun in here if we tried.
