For the love of Albino

[test_recordings]

I far prefer Albino to Massive, way better for smooth sounds. Sounds fuller to me as well, Massive is clinical almost

Albino is great, I still use it for lot's of sounds. To be honest it's pretty good for interesting bass patches as well!

Yeah both of those synths were fire, but also murky. Albino though... I wouldn't call advanced. It is a substractive architecture, so a few oscs, into a couple of filters, with a few envelopes and lfo's, followed by an fx section (that is actually pretty bad imo). Wrinkle is the oscs can do va or digital. There are a few little really powerful bonuses throughout the architecture, though, that make it really powerful, imo. Like some of the osc settings, filter types, and those really really good envelopes.

Albino is a work of art! Your missing a few things. It had FM, AM and to kill it individual unison per OCS.

I think if you could rout the signal flow of the saturation between the filters with a dry/wet it would stand up to massive. IMO it has a better selection of bell and organ waves aswell. I think so much old dubstep was albino.

I'm not a synthesis guy, but I love Albino. Still use it mainly for atmospherics rather than leads.

@bassbum, did you just use 'woo boost' as an example of old Dubstep!?!!??

Not at all. It was a example of albino. I think every synth sound in the song came out of albino.
