Everybody loves free stuff, so what could be better than a guide to using some cool free synths? In this 3 minute video from the full course Audio Plugins 101: 10 FREE Synths That You Can't Live Without, synth expert G.W Childs IV unlocks the secrets of programming the completely free U-He Podolski instrument. Starting with a basic sound, G.W activates the arpeggiator and takes you through how to set the various pitch and osc controls to make things sound interesting.
You'll learn how to quickly tweak the arpeggiator to add and remove steps, change notes as well as gate and measure settings to make your own unique patterns. Finally some filter modulation is added to bring some bite to the sound, giving an authentic and really useable pattern in just a couple of minutes. Check out the other videos in the course for more valuable information on this and other great free synths!
