Synthmob: Vandalism’s Free Sylenth1 Pack is a tool that makes a lot of sense to producers looking for quality samples for their music. The pack, developed for LennarDigital’s Sylenth1, represents the strength of sound design and imaginative possibility. It contains a variety of patches to cater to today’s music-making needs. Whether it’s electronic dance music, pop, or film scores, this freebie gives you access to sonic riches.
Each preset in this set is carefully engineered, and Vandalism knows how to make a great one. They capture so many sonic layers that producers can work on house and trance, dubstep and future bass. The scale of the pack ensures producers are provided with a toolkit that can cater to the needs of both commercial and experimental music. Such versatility not only saves time, but stimulates ideas with an edited stepping stone for compositions.
The presets are all available in the pack and are instantly usable — no complicated settings needed. But there is still a lot of room for individualization in the patches. Its easy for producers to customize the presets as per their own need by editing envelopes, filters and effects. That’s the nice balance of the out-of-the-box functionality and creativity behind Vandalism’s sound design, and the pack is an invaluable creative tool for workflows.
This pack has some cool sounds in it. It’s got basses pounding through the mix, leads that slice with precision, and pads that give it atmosphere. There are also plucks and arpeggios in the pack that would be perfect for melodic growth. They are the sounds of today’s production but with an older-school quality to them so that they will continue to work on ever changing musical landscapes.
Sylenth1 has always been known for its warm, analog-ish character, and this pack certainly plays to that. Vandalism has made use of the synth’s abilities to produce presets that don’t just sound great, they sound natural and fleshy. The patches show Sylenth1’s weaknesses, like its capacity to make lush, rich harmonics, or its sonic flexibility to tackle low and high-fidelity environments.
The most obvious selling point of the pack is that you can actually use it in real production settings. Whether you’re producing a club tune, a movie soundtrack or a sound art experiment, these presets fit into all sorts of workflows. They are sensitive to parameter modification and this allows producers to sculpt and tailor sounds to suit their own purposes. This malleability is important in today’s music production, where mashup genres and signature sound designs are valued more than ever.
The pack is also a perfect example of how collaboration and sharing are so important in the creative industry. Synthmob’s website acts as a community for tools such as this, matching creators with resources and allowing support for each other. This kind of thing not only feeds individual producers but it also makes the music that goes out there better. This free but professional-quality tool such as this is evidence of the emerging trend of open innovation in music technology.
Another cool thing about the pack is that it can also be used as a primer for wannabe sound designers. The reverse engineering of the presets can be done if users look at the methods of creating them. This didactic part enables producers to create their own sounds and learn about synthesis. : For people who want to get to know Sylenth1, presets like these can help get a better understanding of the instrument.
The contribution of Synthmob distributing this pack also matters. The website is committed to connecting producers with the best sources and this partnership with Vandalism proves that. With this pack Synthmob cements its brand as the destination for professional-grade sound design tools and fosters a community of music artists.
This pack is the best combination of design and practicality. In offering a collection of sounds that are inspiring and usable, Vandalism and Synthmob have made a tool that goes far beyond soundbanks. And it’s proof of how design and openness can help producers create their artistic vision in less constraint.
