Hi everyone.

Sorry for the off-topic post but i thought I'd share a nice experience with HISE as a tool for education and creativity for music students. In short, was hired by a music festival to do a 5 day workshop in building simple sample based virtual instruments. It was quite hard to organize it during covid measures - but in the end four of the workshop attendies were able to create their own instruments. They recorded samples using their mobile phones, using opensource audio recorder app; convert, cut and prepare samples in audacity and learn basic stuff in HISE for creating standalone and vst instruments.

If you like to check out their work you can download all compiled vst3 win64bit standalones from here
HISE source files from -> here

Students also made a video presentation of their work, you can watch it from -> here
(albanian language version only i'm affraid, but you might be curious how it sounds :) )

bellow are students instruments interface shots and few photos from the workshop and festival poster of the workshop

Love the Scriptnode, lots to learn yet but it feels so right already!

Makes me happy and had to share!

Many Thanks @Christoph-Hart

Happy to share that the main reason why i use HISE and joined this forum - a personal project that i call ORCHESTOOLS | SECTIONS - a free public virtual orchestra version 1 - is complete now. Took a year to get from an initial idea to a working version.
A motivation behind it was to provide for music students and music enthusiasts a set of free tools for study and composition of orchestral music.

OT SECTIONS features a set of 4 instruments. Each has 4 layers and each layer has independent samplestart, pitch, amp and filter LFO, Envelope and Velocity modulators; each has keyboard range and keyboard volume range, MIDI channel, volume and pan control. It has global compression and convolution reverb, etc...

The whole set is built on samples from Versilian Studios VSCO 2 CE and VSCL libraries. And, of course, hardly any of them would be possible without the help and support from kind and generous people of this forum and the platform built by Christopher. Thank you all!

Compiled Windows 64bit VST3 plugins can be d'loaded from the website

HISE source files are available on my GitHub

Re: my first instrument :)

I've updated and rewritten from the scratch the piano plugin that i made a year ago. New UI and better sounding samplemap. Quite happy with this one and already have ideas and plans for stuff to put on the next update/upgrade.

It is built on Salamander Yamaha C sample library. if you want to check it out and build it on your own (and would aprecciate very much if you happen to build OSX and Linux plugins and/or standalones and if you wouldn't mind sharing them with me, i'll put them on site with credits and stuff) :)

download from GitHub repository: GitHub / OT PIANO S

Otherwise you can download compiled VST3 and Standalone windows files from here:

happy holidays

This is a new rompler instrument i've built using Versilian Studios VSCO 2 CE sample library. The aim is to create orchestral plugins that sound good and offer a lot of modelling tools. It is a 4 layer rompler, each layer has it's own filter, amplitude and pitch modulators, EQ, A global convolution reverb, compression, library and more....
This is the first of four instrument in the series. Winds, Brass and Perc modul;es will follow.

Hi everyone.

I've just published my new Piano instrument and would be very grateful for any testing, comments and critique! (windows vst3 64bit)

Thanks & regards.

I am almost finished working on the second version of my first synth experiment from a year ago - ORCHESTOOLS | GENESYN which uses two standard HISE wavegenerator modules. It has now more LFO's, more Envelopes, new UI, an arpeggiator, etc. Now for some preset building and testing. Will upload it on Github for anyone who might be interested to look into it.

This is my first attempt at fx plugins. This one uses two pattern based LFO's to modulate Filter and Gain. Patterns can be re-triggered with incoming midi note messages. Filter parameters can be automated, etc...

@Xearox73 found this by searching the forum posts, might help you:

@Oli-Ullmann Yes, indeed. Thank you @d-healey .
Inspiring and helpful. Would love to join on the next meet up!

@d-healey Cool, I am working on some stuff in Rhapsody and have some questions and such.

Looking forward to chat and learn more, please add me in also! thnx!

@hueygatez this post might help: https://forum.hise.audio//post/45775

Something like this i think

const var SimpleEnvelope1 = Synth.getModulator("Simple Envelope1");

		inline function onKnob1Control(component, value)
		{
			SimpleEnvelope1.setIntensity(value/2);	
		};

Content.getComponent("Knob1").setControlCallback(onKnob1Control);

@Lindon yup, works... thank you so much Lindon!

@d-healey Convolution Process Input - i believe?

What i need to do to make this inverted, :) iow, when sustain is pressed it turns the processor Off and when released is On.

Convolution.setAttribute(4, Synth.isSustainPedalDown() )

Where/How can i set vst3 UID?
On Reaper an Abelton only one of two of my instruments scans and works - after one is removed the other one scans and works normally. In Reaper they only work if you set the app to allow vst3 plugins with same UID.

@d-healey Yup, this is surely the first question that needs to be asked and I forgot to ask him this question. Thanks, will ask now!
