Hello!

Im tryng to find some Pack with pad/ ambient instrument racks..soft and complex...with only ableton synth/ fx...( a little " trancey" sounding could be nice...)
.Im not so happy with factory ambient inst. racks.
I have purchased here and there some packs...but...doesnt run well for me...

Maybe somebody can reccomend something...


Thanks in advance..!

I'd recommend having some fun with creating preset on Your own, but on the other hand, I'm to lazy freak to learn how to import factory presets to particular synths, so the only solution for me is to make it on my own. hehe

Theres thousands of commercial massive, or sylenth, to name a few, presets pack...I dont understand why there arent consistent and well developed Ableton presets....

they've got other fish to fry i think, like L9...if you get spoonfed this stuff then everyones stuff sounds the same, and you don't learn synthesis, so, its ok

Yup, there is even discussion around the problem of lame default presets.

In general it's healthier to have it as it is - the knowledge in synthesis is the one to be skipped to often. I've even considered writing a complex essay on the synthesis with the operator , but still - the idea is to big for a one shot work, so I'm just rather having fun by writing a few lines randomly from time to time. Maybe eventually would end it.
