Guest reid458 Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) So about an hour ago I was pretty bored so I decided to fiddle around with a synth VST. I started out with a pretty basic sound, and then proceeded into some pretty weird and crazy sounds. After a while of knob twiddling I thought it would be cool to try and reverse everything I did and get back to the original basic sound I had. After a few minutes I realized that I couldn't get anywhere near the original sound I had. To try and locate the problem, I made a new track using the same exact VST. I then adjusted all of the settings on the VST (the new one) so that they exactly matched the old one. After playing both of them, they sounded much different. The new track had a basic sound, and the old track had an odd sound with the basic sound in the background. Kinda weird. Does anyone know why this is? Exact same VST and settings, but a different sound. Here's a recording of the newer track and then the older track.https://soundcloud.com/reid458/samesettings On the original track, I even turned off all the oscillators, and it still is making sound.

Guest RadarJammer Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 if you think you've found a bug in the plugin you should notify the developer all vst's are coded different Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/78931-same-vst-same-settings-different-sound/#findComment-2006278 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friendly Foil Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 What VST is this? I'm asking because I had the dxi version of synth1 installed for a looong time (don't know why) without realizing it, and it did the exact same thing.

futureimage Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 I think Aalto does this, but between different registrations, not different instances of the same registered copy.

Guest reid458 Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 th555, I'm sure :PI'm using the MinimogueVA. I'm guessing it's just a bug. I downloaded the VST a few years ago, so I'll download the newest version incase it's been fixed (though I doubt it).

CharlesWatkins Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 i wouldnt exactly call the second sound weird and crazy, sounds more just like an additional osc one octave up that got stuck on somehow Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide CharlesWatkins's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/78931-same-vst-same-settings-different-sound/#findComment-2006523 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went from a basic sound (first half of the clip), to weird and crazy sounds, and then back to the beginning again (second half of the clip).
