Okay, so let’s solo filter A, what do we get? So this is our main sound, it’s the body of this flute sound. So the only oscillators that are making any sound are the oscillators from part A, and those are being doubled they’re being sent through filter A and filter B. Filter B takes the oscillators from both A and B, but the B oscillators are disabled, zero voices for both. Filter A takes the oscillators from A okay that’s normal. This is a very simple, straightforward, chunky phaser, another cool use for these dual filters is this patch. What did we get when you combine them? We basically get a phaser effect. What about part B? Okay, just a wide open filter, no movement. All right, so we’ve got an LFO moving a band pass up and down in our sound. So when we’re in part A and we’re soloed we’re only hearing what comes out of filter A which in this case is the oscillators from both part A and part B. Now, when you use this solo button where you’re actually soloing is the filters output. Why? Well, let’s take a listen to them individually. One copy is going through part A’s filter another copy is going through part B’s filter. So essentially what we’ve done here is we’ve taken all four oscillators and made a copy of them. Nope, filter B is doing the same, oscillators from A and B are coming in here too. So that probably means our filter B is disabled, we’ve talked about that a bunch. So let’s take a look at our filter setups here, for filter A we’ve got oscillators from A and B coming in. First one I wanna show you, patch number six. We can do all sorts of interesting things using filter A and filter B. This is treating part A and part B as two synths in one, and in the factory presets there are so many cool examples of this, but I wanna show you a way to use part A and part B that focus on the two filters. Part A we have the slow attack to create that swell, but part B immediate attack so that, that noise comes in right when we hit a note and we get a nice combination. And it’s a cool use of different amp envelopes. We’ve got this round smooth pad and then we’ve got this rhythmic noise. We’ve got two very different patches here. Show you one example in the factory presets patch 103 Moon Cloud. One of the most obvious is creating two very different sounds, which essentially treats part A and part B as two different synths. Part A and part B are absolutely great for layering in this synth and there are endless options on how you can combine them. So throughout these videos I’ve showed you a lot of different examples of how you can use part A and part B, but we really just hit the tip of the iceberg here. So let’s get started and talk about some layering. Now this demo comes with the first 22 Syntorial lessons, but also you can go into the menu select download lesson packs and download a sample of the Sylenth1 lesson pack, as well as a pack for Z3TA+ 2 and a Minimoog Voyager and will be adding more in the future. Just go to, click try for free and you can download the Syntorial demo for Mac, PC or iPad. And you can actually get the first four videos from the Sylenth1 lesson pack for free. The Sylenth1 lesson pack adds 38 videos that show you how to take everything you’ve learned in Syntorial Synth and apply it to Sylenth1. It does this using video demonstrations and interactive challenges in which you program patches on a built-in soft synth. Syntorial is a synthesizer training app that teaches you how to program synth patches by ear. This video is actually an excerpt from the Sylenth1 lesson pack for Syntorial. Layering our synth patches allows us to create richer and more detailed synth patches and Sylenth1 is perfectly designed for layering. In this video, I’ll be showing you some synth patch layering techniques using Sylenth1. Get 4 more Sylenth1 videos for free via the Syntorial Demo. This video is an excerpt from the Sylenth1 Lesson Pack for Syntorial, which contains 38 videos, over 2 hours of footage, and covers every inch of Sylenth1. Watch Joe Hanley, the creator of Syntorial, as he demonstrates synth patch layering techniques with Sylenth1.
