Patcher tutorial - Start-to-finish plugin design!

I have come across a gold nugget.

Wouldn't it be much easier to make 2 separate patches without any bypass buttons, just make one, save, then change waveshaper preset then save under different name. No bypass needed because you can just turn on/off, the patcher instance. The whole video could be 5 min long with this method and require a fraction of routing to implement it. Instead you're expecting people to sit down for 40 minutes, watching you route the same thing over and over again.

duplicates a plugin by dragging "save preset as"
"by the way alt click to open multiple plugins"
me picking my jaw up off the floor and screaming "wwwwitchcraft!!!!!"

but really though, amazing tutorial! I learned quite a bit here.

This is an incredible tutorial. Super in depth and inspired me to make my own stuff in Patcher. One question, I'm working on a simple effect rack to have an all-in-one place for effects I add on basically every sound (EQ, Compressor, Saturation) and I want to add a width knob. The plugin I'm using for adding width is Infected Mushroom's Wider, but when the amount is set to 0% it makes the sound mono. I don't want to add width necessarily to every sound I add the effect rack too, but I don't want to make them mono. I was wondering if there is a way to set it so that turning the knob a little bit (even just 1%) could turn on the effect but it would stay off otherwise. If you have a way to do this, that would be great! Otherwise, that's okay. I can just make a button to turn on and off the plugin. Thank you so much!

Please download link?

This is very very good. I regret so much that I came across your channel just now, after a lot of years!! All the best man

Sir how can we change instruments in channel via Android app in fl studio. Make a video on that.

appreciate it a lot

Hey man, I have a question regarding patcher which is not related to this video. I was trying to make a plugin that simulates different speaker setups and environments, for example car, headphones, church, studio and so on. So when I click the "car" button for example i get the sound of the song in a car, but my problem is how can i visually "declick" all the other buttons. Basically how can I make one button deactivate all the other buttons in the interface so that only one button is active at a time. Thank you so much in advance ❤

Can i download this present please provide me the link to download 🙏

And I have another question...1st - when I try to resize the surface according to the size of my plugin, there is a border where this resizing stops and I have to stretch THE PLUGIN to the patcher border. 2nd - when I load this patcher preset (or plugin) again, this resizing gets back to some default patcher size and the plugin looks with some working space except for its interface... How may both be cured?

Thank you! That's a very cool detailed, concrete and clear explanation! So, may I use this x-y-z controller for my gtr pedalboard for switching between two or three different AMPs? I tried doing this in Fruity Formula but each time both of my ODs turned on or off simultaneously instead of switching.

is there a way to make a audio plugin that is able to have different presets within this patcher plugin im trying to put my vocal presets in a plugin but i dont know how to do any coding

Awesome tips and tutorial.

You're a great teacher man I came for something much simpler and It ended up being gold from start to finish.

I watched this a few times, and then followed along and built this in patcher. I have to say, your tutorials are so incredibly helpful and well made. I really appreciate how you take the time to explain not just what you're doing, but why you're doing it. You have helped me grasp the logic of the building blocks in patcher better than any other tutorial. Also, the plugin you designed is awesome too! I would love to see you create or breakdown other more complex designs in this type of format. You are one of the few people (I can only think of one other person) who is making good patcher tutorials. If you have a patreon or anything with more content, please let me know. I'd love to support. Thanks again

that's amazing can you share this patcher preset with us?

Can I please get this plugin

First of all, great stuff and thank you for these videos. I use pacher to make my own and also modefie sometimes somme verry expenssive plugins. You can do anythig. But I was wondering:
What about the HQ, oversampling and linear phases in these nonlinear processes? If I introduce somme changes in EQ using one or two parameters, like slight HP or shelf filter with the Cliper going up, and gentle 180-560Hz cut when the Expender goes extremely up, for example do I put another separate EQ2 for each W-shaper, or can I use the output ones and conect the Fq control to Z on the XYZ controller? Plus, may be anti-aliasing LP filter at 20K on the output EQ2 afterb the wave shaper, do I put on the linear phase on evry EQ2 or just the one doing the Eqing. And than what about the latency isue?
Please, please, 🙏🙏🙏 can you make a video testing some of your plug-inns in plug-inn doctor? Showing the best setings for oversampling and linear phases. That's crucial for masterin and sum BUSes processing.
Turn on the phase curve in EQ2 and see what it does to phase shift especially with sharp HP and LP filter and on the sum Bus a slight shift in phase cancels out some FQ because there is a lot going on ther. And it's verry audible.
Thank you in advance and thank you for this video.
You can also listen to my start to finish track on YT, type in "Ras Stingray - Abundant state of empathy". of that one I'm proud.

You can do all that just using Maximus within pacher all controles are at one place.
Softclip: Mast Comp-off or expand the comp curve linear diagonally to right up corner: A-sat. left 0.1- 0.2, Trh: - 0.10 and then PUSH the post gain untill you hear dist, then dial back a dB or 2;
Expander: complete off low and high; Mid: make tha same curve as in your expander. Maximus is basically the multiband wave shaper with the ATT and REL, so you can play with that also.
Latency Dell off or less than the default if you are not compressing muliple bands and limiting master and there is wet/dry knob for bands mixing. You can do the multibandn processing put the !Lin-Phase on!. Don't compress at the mastering stage. If you saturate the highs and mids together it really rounds tham up together but then you have to do the same expansion and conection for the controles on each band. (low off)
I use Fq splitter sends lin-ph, other analogue emulating plug-inns and processing on separate channels plus MID and SIDE separately.
put the presets for downloading I can modifie somme and send you back.
And yes, you can do it professionally (mix and master) on your own. Sorry for my English.
Tnx again so much.

Appreciate a lot this patcher tutorials, not a lot of good videos like this out there🙏♥

hello how are you I want you to do vst for noise gates🔉🚑

Insane dude! Thank you very much. Hope you keep sharing this patcher wisdom.

This is so dope! I just learned so much about Patcher! Thank you, man! 😊🙏🏽

great tutorial Jim from the Office! Im good with patcher but the UI design part was super helpful

Just want to let you know that what you describe as expansion is actually upwards compression

Damn! this was helpful I already made mine! looking forward to start using it Thanx

How do you make it so you cant see the hand which opens edit menu?

Very informative ^_^ Was looking for a way to make the Knob's value work from 0 to 100. The XYZ controller solved that!.

This is actually brilliant. Thank you so much

AMAZING! please keep this videos coming!

You're a amazing teacher !! Please keep these patcher videos coming !! Subbed

Ahhhh yasss

Nice tutorial KRE! Patcher has really peaked my interest lately. I'm working on creating a multi FX plugin, and am currently looking into ways to change the order of a serial FX chain via fruity formula controller & your videos help inspire new approaches to take. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏿🙏🏿

Can you provide download link?
