Kevin Schroeder is the real genius here. He creates some of the most amazing sounds on a variety of platforms. Give him his due... He's earned it and deserves it
I've always been a fan of The Legend's sound, since I got me one a couple of years ago. It's amazing to hear how much now has been added into this new Hanz Zimmer version. AMAZING!
ITS Native Instruments guys.kONTROL s61 note is what you see him playing. What he is playing is not a hard wire synth. Its Native Instruments Libraries.
i have so many VST synths and a few vintage analogs but this still intrigues and impresses me...reasonable price too...def going to grab one (i'm a sucker for cinematic scores)
Just purchased (upgraded). It's a masterpiece, probably the best analog emulation in my vst arsenal. I'd like to have individual fm modulation for all oscillators with linear/exponential option.
Omg 😳 The Legend is already my fav Moog plugin and now we add HZ to the equation!!! And you take it a step further and model his personal Moog?! Smh this is insane!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That's a bit of an exaggeration. Have you ever heard the Model 72 by Softube, sounds more like a Minimoog than this. Or how about the Roland SE - 02 module, that sounds sick and this is half the price of that hardware. This sounds good for its non Mini sounds. The Zimmer sounds. They're ok, but you can hear the digital sheen. I liked the Interstellar and Dark Master patches. Classic Zimmer sounds that are already on the Zebra HZ though. If you're new to his digital sound creation world, welcome!
@@RJ1J I have seen Starsky Carr doing comparisons between the Legend and Softubes Model 72 and they are more or less the same. And he is the detailed oriented guy using the oscilloscopes and all and that really dives deep into all the components. What some comparisons can fail upon is if using the early or late revision that is modelled in the Legend. They will make the Legend differ from Model 72 if the "wrong one" is chosen Both are equally good with the added benefit of the modular system for the Model 72 BUT with the added bonus of more extra tweaking "Under the hood" and effects for the Legend. And, of course, polyphony and unison. So for me it is a no brainer to choose the Legend. That is, if you are not really into the modular "free" extras you get from Softube. (Which could be cool). What is interesting to note is that none of the Moog emulations, not even the hardware Behringer Model D, can do the saturation/overdrive nowhere near as good as in the original Moog Model D. They are not even close!
You should make a video about sound design on this. Bought this yesterday, but I have absolutely no idea what a “filter bank” is, and have no idea of the scope of this thing. Even without having a good idea of how to use this to it’s completely full capacity, my sounds with it are still the best I’ve ever made! Great synth!
"In signal processing, a filter bank (or filterbank) is an array of bandpass filters that separates the input signal into multiple components, each one carrying a sub-band of the original signal."
@@knuttheo1668 Think of it as a really powerful EQ where you can "Tune" and tweak each band very hard (and dynamically automated). That is, if you turn down all of the EQ bands you get no sound at all. Or, another extreme, if you turn down all the EQ:s except one band you will only hear that band. Then in turn all of this can be automated. That is, you can modulate all of these knobs in that filter bank just like you do with your normal lowpass filter with, for an example, an envelope generator or an LFO. You get the "normal synthesizer control" of specific combos of frequency ranges! Very cool!
@SynapseAudio - When you have two presets "stacked" like some of these demos, is that a keyboard-split/multi-patch simultaneous setting, or just two instances running on separate tracks of a DAW at the same time?
Fantastic sound! Awesome work! I am wondering what you use for the spectrum (right-hand screen). Is it just a module of your DAW on a separate tiny screen?
It's absolutely great guys!!! Spectacular! Have to say, it really is rich and warm. Very very analog! ❤🚀 I've got family over, but I started a demo. Oh yeah, the FX device alone is worth the money. Amazing 👀💫
Impressive some of the sounds I haven't heard before and some I have, like the first preset in this video however maybe that was also Made by HZ in the past, for other brands. A bit like Roland presets that are the same exact sound on Novation, Reason Studios, Arturia, Native instruments I have found the same exact sounding Preset.
Ich mag alles was du jemals gemacht hast und ich nutze orion immer noch, immer wieder. Du solltest die sample basierte drum machine und einige andere orion Instrumente als vst rausbringen. Die dinger sind gut und es wäre wohl nicht viel aufwand das zu machen. Ich liebe deine industrial drumsets.
First off congrats on another banger of a synth! I have and love The Legend so before buying the update, do I still keep the original Legend (I love the simplicity of its interface) and does the Legend HZ, open legacy Legend patches?
@@synapseaudio2488 thanks. Bought HZ update a couple of hours ago. Love it. If only the MSEG could be switched so that the breakpoints can snap to 12 values/semitones that would be a nice addition :)
As far as I understood this Synth should be NKS-compatible. Looking at the keyboard screen it seems there is no parameter mapping as the keyboard uses a default Midi template only. Will this be added or did I get something wrong here? Beside of that this is one of the best sounding Synth-plugins ever. Fantastic sound!
I saw preview on Kevin's FB about the new sounds for The Legend coming but I didn't thought that it will be a totally new The Legend :) Is presets from The Legend compatible with a new HZ?
Hey ho, sold my behringer model d years ago because the old "the legend" sounds so well. But I´m searching all the time for a m**g vst emulation wich can beat a subsequent 37...(even the m**g mariana don´t get it) can this thing solve this problem??? it should be so EASY, just 2 lfo´s, 2 osc a sub osc and a nice sounding filter... why it´s so difficult????
@@BRIGGS2710 He means people will sell hardware because they don't need the hassle when plugins sound this good. I disagree. A lot of digital sheen on these presets that isn't as bad on Sylenth1. G-Force has it on all its plugins. Something to do with the filter code or effects. Dunno.
In some case yeah, but in some not. Every instrument have own character of sound. I love hardware analog synths and I never selling analog(unlike digital iron synthesizers), even if such companies like Synapse Audio can clone it maximum close, I still feel this very small difference or it's just my own) but it will not make people sell their synth treasures in most cases. In any case, The Legend HZ seems to be an outstanding synthesizer and I would eagerly start doing sound design on it😊
@@NatLifeSounds I know what you mean. But there are certain sounds that cannot be recreated in software. I'm talking about extreme sounds, and filters especially, but that could be something like a really low bass note.The deep buzz from say Moog hardware, say a Grandmother or Sub 25 sounds amazing, and different every time. This is where analogue almost always beats plug-ins, at the extremes, which is where we want to go often times Of course, you get people that say 90% of people can't tell the difference. But it's when you add it all up. If you're running a dozen soft synths, or you're running 12 tracks of analogue, it makes a major difference to the depth and character to the combined sound. Because the digital replicates the same sound every time, whilst the analogue does not. So those are the three reasons why it's worth the hassle to have at least three pieces of analogue gear, the nonlinearity, the analogue filters and the combination of many analogue tracks at once. I get desktop versions, no big deal on space. And in many cases I can run plugins to operate the hardware. I could put them under my desk if I want to. This is true for several Moog synths, which have excellent free editors.
Its hard to believe that only 100 years ago... not even a single Synth was available, not even first electric guitar was made until 1937. Tech is moving very fast.

AMazing he even had time to put even 5 minutes into this with his output level. Impressive.

Does anyone know what the expression box on the left is?
Is the reverb part of the program?
AM I right in thinking there is only 200 presets in the plugin at the moment ? They are awesome from what I hear
There is 200 new presets, and 400+ presets from the old Legend, which are also included as an optional download.
Grandma Sequence could be such a great trap song
What reverb is used in the demo? The Legend one or something else?
The Legend HZ
Im curious how much influence and or participation did HZ have in the making of this plugin?
A lot of influence. It was Hans' idea to have 6 oscillators, 4 MSEGs and a comprehensive modulation matrix.
