    Try to listen to as many sounds as possible, than try to imagine them without the fx lol. Problem with much of the YouTube stuff done for Magellan is that they use the presets. The presets are cool for what they are, but are knee deep in FX. Take off the fx and put some subtle and more suitable fx on and you can get pretty close to Eighties poly synth. The dual filter setup helps then add some movement to the sound and quality fx ( or at least tone back the overuse of it in the presets.

    I made some pretty reasonable Soft Cell poly sounds with some tape fx delay and reverb using the original Magellan. Some people don’t seem to like the sound of Magellan, but I’m not sure if those people have gone beyond the presets which are like I have my pancakes - dripping in syrup!

    Thanks for the reply. I have to admit I'm not a big fan of the original's sound - not sure what it is, just something not quick clicking with me. Saying that though - I've got the Toneboosters EQ now, so that might be useful in the chain for a bit of warmth. I'll have to check out the vids again - it's a cheapy though so I'll probably dive in on Friday night.

    @MonzoPro here’s 3 instances of mag2 in aum with fractal bits, multiple effects, rozeta lfo automating stuff , xequence and screen switching back n forth between apps, no crackleys!!

    That's nice that. Not sure how many would fit on my Air 2 but I'm not greedy.

    is my fav synth right now next to sunrizer. its def warm and very versatile, and auv3... i’ve ran 5 without problems so far that’s all i’ve tested

    Hmm, yeah warm is good - I like the look of the spawn thing too.

    I always liked Magellan. Easy to program, sounds good and has decent effects and sequencer. This seems like a good update of an old classic.

    Just fired up Moog Model D planning to use it as a bassline. It does sound good, but wow I feel like that thing uses most of my CPU. Really glad we have lighter good sounding synths as well.

    Yeah synths like Model D sound great and then I end up having to chop out bits of the audio to fit them into a mix, except for the bass sound of course :p

  • no nice way to put it...model d is a cpu destroyer and pretty much unusable unless its pretty much by itself and you just use the recorded audio when you bring it in a mix

    Yes, but it's sync works :tongue:
    Good to hear Yonac are going to sort that :)

  • AUV3 - midi learn on both timbre drifts with rozeta lfo - crashes magellan2. That’s my experience.🥴

  • However - a nice playground for sound-designers. I like it.

    Does v2 have the original Magellan v1 patches? Or can they be imported? Or failing all of the above, could v1’s patches be reliably reproduced?

    You can import all of V1s patches apart from a few of the IAP packs.

    Everything expect the Sunshine Audio “Explore” presets.

    If they mean that much to you, you can re-save them in a new bank, and migrate that.

  • Eh. This does nothing for me. It's been a few years now, only natural I've reached my breaking point. These things (synths, that is) can only do so much that is truly unique, and then it's always a question of 'cool. But does it really sound good'. Most of the time my opinion is no.

    Dont even get me started on model 15 CPU load

    i’ve been waiting on this for a while!
    can’t wait to really put this one to work

    Do preset IAP transfer?

  • Is that Spawn2 page too dark for anyone else? Also, I find the red on black of the preset pages a bit harsh. Personal preferences, I know...

    Old presets? From Magellan 1?
    Yes! You can email these packs and you are good to import them into M2 🙌🏼

  • User error. Pressing the Expert turned on the controls. DOH!

  • I'll have to revise my opinion on Magellan 2 after I've been playing with it for a while...

    It is a different beast compared to its predecessor and doesn't have 'that sound' that drove me nuts with Kaspar and Kauldron!

    The GUI is silky smooth even on my ancient iPad Air 2.
    Would love to see the effects as a separate AUv3...

    So yeah, Magellan 2 gets my warm recommendation for now :)

    haha that’s good to know man. i think this one def has impressed me more than a lot of my recent buys.. and it is a different beast from the original..., that sound is goooone!! it’s auv3 and built for a touch screen!

    Agreed. And then, you know, SPAWN. Have a good weekend self-isolating :)

    I do the 'self-isolation' with the Drumbwhatewah :)

    But yeah to keep my sanity I should spend time with other apps too hahaha....

  • I agree :) I didn’t think I would like it since I wasn’t that fond of old Magellan’s sound, but I bought it anyway and have found it to have it’s place. Very easy to use for sound design and the interface is so accessible.

    Compared to something like Shockwave, which I really like the sound of, but the interface is difficult to use, I keep scratching away at that interface, pressing things three times to open them etc. Not particularly keen on the old “wood ‘n cigarettes” aesthetic of Magellan’s style, but as usability goes it’s excellent.

    I’d the like the xy to have a bigger option and also midi assignments for it. But this is a good purchase.

    Hmmmm. ‘That sound’ was the thing holding me back, good to hear it works nicely on an Air 2 as well.

    Might grab it if it’s still on offer.

    Edit - got it, nice and easy on CPU, and the 'spawn' function is fun. Sounds good.

  • Has anyone managed to use the keyboard in AUM to control other synths, just asked this in the wrong thread and someone pointed at prefs that do exist in the old Magellan but can’t see them in this one... I’ve loaded it as a midi instrument but it doesn’t show up as a source on audio midi inputs...

    If you run the standalone, there is a midi out channel preference. The AU doesn’t appear to have midi out though. If you turn on a channel in the standalone, you’ll see it show up as a source that you can connect synths to. But, it doesn’t appear to be working. Also, you can’t load it into AUM. I guess there’s no IAA in the standalone.

    So, I guess the answer is no, at least from my experience.

    [Edit] Got it working from the standalone by selecting AUM Destination rather than Magellan 2 as the input. I won’t be using it that way, but it does work.

  • Cheers @wim that’s what I’ve seen too, thanks for the sanity check... I’ve asked via the support site so will report back as and when :smile:

    See above edit. It works from standalone.

    Ah cool, that I will try in just a mo

    Indeed it does, I presumed it would from the midi plugin too, was at least half the reason I tried it as have the old Magellan but hardly ever use it but thought I might as well hell am old synth alive if there’s a nice mpe controller in it, I’ll see what they say...

    There are way better ways to do MPE than loading up a whole synth for it. KB-1 is one example.

  • Indeed, it just seemed to be suggested in the manual that the controller would load up separately, I’ll see what they say and probably end up getting either kb1 or velocity anyway :)

  • I’m really enjoying this awesome synth! I apply Alteza to all my presets and just makes me smile! Soooooo beautiful!❤️❤️❤️❤️

  • Hello all. In regard to the MagTOUCH & MPE IAP. Does it only function with the in app keyboard or will it respond to after touch on my midi controller keys?
    Also, how are those 70’s programs?
    Thanks in advance for any responses.

    So ... kinda the opposite of the usual complaint that “all the presets are soaked in FX”? Ha ha ha ha! :D
