It would also be ideal to get a complete list of all modulations. The interface is bizarre and seems a little rushed, kind of like it's trying to borrow from serum. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiralsurfer Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Great update, I almost bought Alchemy just before they stopped selling and now I'm glad I held off! The download seems extremely slow though, 52 hours showing at the moment and I'm on a 100Mbps cable connection. It started quickly, now dropped to a very slow crawl.

This reveals all mod sources...and is very intuitive/fast - once you've got the hang of it. Look at the hierarchy of the documentation - it follows the hierarchy of the synth itself.

When you right-click a knob, a "go to modulation" would be very helpful to track down the source of something you want to change. The only thing you can do now is clear it entirely, what if you don't want to do that and just back it down a tad? It could really use some work. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could really use some work. lol OK...I think I see where things might be confusing. Left click a param in the synth section - say Cutoff in the main filter. It (the knob) turns blue and updates the Mod Rack below. A scroll bar appears if there are more than 4-5 mod sorces for the selected target (Cutoff knob). You can use the Bypass button for any mod destination in the rack, or can use the Mod Rack menus to remove/replace a mod routing. Routings can also be added with the right-click on a parameter. Mod rack Depth knobs let you control each routing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lologic Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Just another gripe in playing with alchemy, it amazes me that it is shooting a single core's utilization up through the roof, this day and age. I've got a new macbook pro, it's on 256 buffers, nothing but alchemy is in the session. Why can't they make these things multi-core by now?

slamthecrank Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Anybody noticed that the width of the channel strips in the Mixer is smaller, even when the "bigger" setting is selected? For example, when I put a UAD 1176 on an insert, I used to see UAD UA 1176. Now, the 6 is missing. Same with the Ext Inst plugin, it's not written as it used to be. Blink No, it's the exact same size. I even checked in Photoshop, but there must be a different naming scheme or something regarding the plugin names... here is a screen grab to see (I took a screenshot in 10.1.1 then another in 10.2.0 and put them side by side to measure and they line up exactly the same width etc.. only difference is that naming construct.)

Eric Cardenas Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 How do we add user icons? Control - Click on an icon in the tracks area. The icon hud opens. At the bortom of the left column you see a Custom Icon entry. Select that and use the + button on the right field to add an icon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leytonnz Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 this: The Reset Channel Strip command now works on all selected channel strips in the Mixer. makes me happy. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chellstrom Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Correction — they do work. I spotted it in the KB article about the new features in Alchemy. In the keyword browser, select Sound Library in one of the last two column headers. In there, you can select to display Legacy presets. Which is why I posted an update a few posts down...

Tribalman Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 And ... That's it . Just recovered the original MAressource file and the power button is there !But I miss my custom light grey look It should be easy to modify, if you want to try it yourself: https://logicxinterfaces.wordpress.com/2015/08/25/how-to-make-a-custom-grey-light-mod-in-10-2/ I haven't downloaded 10.2. yet, but when I have time, this will be the first mod I put on the blog.

Tribalman Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 It's seems that there is no way to create a short cut to play a selection of an audio region ( Audio editor ) to replace the mouse clic on the speaker button like that : I recall that it was possible in LP9 . Can't find the shortcut : I miss a lot this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brew.Drink.Repeat. Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 No, it's the exact same size. I even checked in Photoshop, but there must be a different naming scheme or something regarding the plugin names... IMO I'd rather be missing a few characters at the end of a plugin's name than a whole bunch from the middle. I suspect this was a very intentional change to address that issue.

efiebke Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 So far, so good. . . . Just checked out Alchemy. It works. It's not all that much different than the other synths that I have (from Native-Instruments). It makes sounds go "bleep-blop-boop" in rhythm. Just can't too excited about that. (I'm not into EDM.) But the program itself seems stable for my modest orchestral sequencing and video-scoring projects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sounds go "bleep-blop-boop" in rhythm. Just can't too excited about that. It's a deep synth. It you spend five minutes flicking through some presets you're not going to understand it's strengths and unique abilities - in that case it's just a few thousand extra synth presets for you.
