You need to give me a lesson in that on day.. I can't get a good result from it :( What do you use it for.. intruments? Drums? samples`?

Personally, I've used it on drumloops, with pre-verb and some other techniques. It works out pretty good. Especially when you layer a bunch of loops on different instances of the plugin. Sweet! :)

Actually, there is a way. :)

Ā 

Use the 'retrigger' in glitch, select a low speed (2.0 is lowest i think), set the length to 80% or more, S charge to none, and the Pitch control to any value you want. For example if you want the sound to pitch up you should set that pitch knob high.

Ā 

Try it out, if it doesn't work for you I'll send u the .fxp preset.

Ā 

Edit: Actually, it works good for drumloops. But not as much for leads or pads, as it's not really smooth. Try with a really high speed, maybe that could work.

You see, I entered ONE plugin, and the discussion is going and the tips are flying all over the place. So Vanguard as an effect? I never tried that, tell me more! :D

I use it to make the rising sounds he wants, before a climax for example, don't understand if he means the type of effect that goes for several bars rising, or the one ehere you pitch the sound in the envelope, but vanguard can do both :P

After installation most VST's can also be used as FX plugin instead of synthplugin.

Today's VST's are a combination of oscillators and FX, the FX is allready applied internal before the signal goes out to the sequencer.

Just add the vangaurd (or vangaurd FX) as an FX plugin and the oscillators will automatically be bypassed.

You can now use the FX panel of vanguard as a FX plugin.

This works with 90% of all VSt's.

I knew that you can use them as effects, but are they really recommended? What can you do with them? I never tried, cause I have my favorite set of effects (which by all means, is just a few hehe) :) Sounds cool though, now that I am djing with 2 computers and Traktor/Ableton, this might come VERY handy! :D

recommended? i don't know, taste is different for everybody.

I think it could be really usefull for arpeggiators, i never tried this but it should work.

Imagine you are using predator or nexus but you want the vanguard arp.

Arp is an FX, so adding vanguard in the FX channel of the predator should give you predator sound with vanguard arpeggiatior.

Never tried it, and i can't test it right now cause i formatted my laptop and the only thing on it is BSS soundweb designer and microsoft office, and it will stay that way for a long time. No more making music for me until 9th januari :(

Ā 

or another situation:

most onboard FX on VST's only have an on-off swith but no gain control.

If you add a synth as VST, turn off all the FX, and add the synth as FX again in the sequencer's FX mixer(Where you probably have gain control on all channels)

you will have the exact same effect, but because this is not an onboard-FX anymore you can now use the sequencer's gain control.

Arp is a Midi control in vanguard, how is routing audio from the predator to an fx unit going to change the midi data of the predator track?

Ā 

Maybe you meant trancegate, that's an audio efx in vanguard.
