Im a massive fan of the legacy vst’s prologue, mystic and spector and used them all over my beats for the past 15 years. Im gutted the e-licenser service is due to end next year, which means if we lose our e licencer dongles, then its curtains. I did some research and was recommended to try the very underrated and forgotton about synth: Tera3, since its basically prologue, spector, mystic etc on steroids. I had no idea the history behind Tera and how the developer even offered a crossgrade to cubase users 20 years ago haha for users of D’cota (now known as prologue, spector and mystic).
Just to ask, can i for sure create the exact same sounds in tera3, as i could in prologue, mystic and spector? Is it 100% the same sound/engine?, with just more options and features?
Im at least relieved i have a synth that can sound the same but its annoying recreating the presets i made with the legacy cubase synths. Im not the best sound designer, nor so i intend to be. But in tera3, the modulation aspect is quite confusing, even if you want to modulate the pitch or cutoff with an envelope or lfo. Im still figuring that aspect. I loved the cubase legacy vsts because even i could get along with it, since the features were ‘enough’ and wasnt overblown with menus and pointless bells and whistles…the important parameters are neatly and politley layed out in a simple but dated looking GUI
But im happy with how tera3 sounds. Any (basic) tutorials out there for tera3? Theres so many for the ios version of tera, since thats what the company is focusing on.
Im fed up of these new synths that are anologue this or that and they all sound modern and boring and the same. Since we all have those type of workhorse synths for our day to day sounds, its about time developers and DAW’s provided more different synths like prologue, spector, Mystic (and tera3)…they compliment our bread and butter workhorse synths. Those legacy cubase vsts just sat in a (miniaml style) mix very well. Im sick of steroid type presets which are irritating and made to individually sound imptessive and not representative how it would be used in a mix
