this is a huge fm synth and it has a pay what you want structure so you can even
use it for free if you want so let's check out the 2getheraudio Opzilla fm synth
i'm zane welcome to audio tech tv where it's my goal to help you conquer the tech
so you can unleash your creativity and i do this by providing easy to follow
audio tech tips tutorials and reviews and i've also included the link to the opzilla down in
the description in case you want to easily head over and get this for yourself but right now let's
have a quick listen to it and then we'll get into some of the details plus some more audio tests
all right now let's go over some of the details and then i'll get into the pricing structure which
is pretty interesting and i'll also talk about the free version and what the limitations of that are
and i'll also be doing some more audio tests so with all the fm synth plugins out there what makes
2getheraudio opzilla so unique well it has 150 editable instrument sounds
it features sampled attacks so you can layer that onto your sound for extra character and punch
let's have a look at that right now so over here is where you can have your layered attack
so right now it's set at zero and this is what it sounds like now let's turn the level up a bit
and let's hear what this sounds like now
all right so that's what the sampled attacks are that you can add on to your sound
which can give you a lot more variety you also get three envelope modes including loop mode
which allows you to create some big animated pad sounds
and then there's adsr or one shot so let's just have a listen to what this sounds like
for this preset it didn't really make a difference until we went on one shot but
i'm sure if you play around with them on your settings you'll find them very useful
and opzilla features 64 algorithms with four operators and this gives you a lot of
opportunities for different sounds so let's hear what happens if we change the algorithm
as you can see that would help you to create a lot of different sounds you also have four built-in
effects you've got a distortion chorus delay and reverb unit in here so you don't need to bring in
any other plugins to get those effects it's all built in and i know i only have one thing
loaded into this project right now which is the opzilla but if you look at my cpu usage
it's at one so you can have multiple instances of this in your projects and
it shouldn't create too much problems now i know a lot of the viewers on audio tech tv
like presets and all of the words that i just mentioned in the details
are just words to you so let's talk presets and then i'll get into the pricing so you have a lot
of factory presets included with this these were created not only by 2getheraudio but
they were also created by some fm synth pros so they're not just the manufacturer settings
these are really nice starting points for you so let's load some of them up and give them a lesson
all right now let's talk about the opzilla pricing but before i get into that i just want
to mention it is available on mac and windows now 2getheraudio are giving you a pay what you want
option so you can see it starts out at 49 bucks but you can adjust this all the way down to ten
dollars if you're a poor student or a poor musician like some of us are and if you're
a professional and you're feeling generous and you have the money to help these guys out
you can go up to a hundred bucks but there is also a freeway if you click on try it free
you can see you can download the free trial but this is the full opzilla synth the only
limitations are you can't save your own plugin presets and the plugin parameters that you have
loaded into your project they won't save so if you close down a project and then you open it up again
you're going to have to reset whatever the settings you had are and if you're just using
presets this really shouldn't be a problem you could just put the name of that preset into the
track name and then that way you'll know to load up that preset the next time you open the project
but of course if you can afford to purchase the opzilla please do it as it helps them
to continue to maintain the software and develop new tools for musicians now let's listen to some
more of those opzilla presets so you can hear what you're buying if you choose to purchase it
