Michael Parson-McNamara Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I can't load any of the 351 presets in bx-Oberhausen, though the preset folder shows up. I keep getting "Invalid File" and can see the extension. It's a .papreset file, but that hasn't helped me any. Anyone with advice/experience/solutions? Thanks Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) The .papreset files should be found in this folder > "C:\Program Files\Plugin Alliance\bx_oberhausen\Presets". Use the preset browser in the bx_oberhausen UI to load these presets. To access the browser just click the little square icon in the upper left between the power button and the UI scale %.

Michael Parson-McNamara Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 Thanks abacab! I started watching some tuts on YouTube and had been shown I should be using the field that says "Untitled". Little by little. LOL I am enjoying the sounds a lot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a really great synth! For 80 more excellent preset sounds, check out the Luftrum 22 preset bank for bx_oberhausen, by Luftrum and Sonic Underworld. $29. https://www.luftrum.com/luftrum22/ I don't understand why you cannot see the old-school preset pull-down menu in the preset name field "untitled". That also works here but I avoid it because it lacks the advanced features of the browser view. Tip: click the "?" in the lower-right corner of the plugin for a link to the PDF plugin manual that covers all of the synth sections and parameters.

Michael Parson-McNamara Posted February 16, 2023 Author Share Posted February 16, 2023 Oh cool. I had no idea about the pdf. I agree about it being a great sounding synth! I just got the Cherry Audio GX-80, too. So it definitely feels like a fun winter here! You're right! Those Luftrum presets sound excellent! I'll have to put that $29 aside ......

abacab Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) Yep, the bx_oberhausen and the GX-80 are great sounding synths! Another synth from Plugin Alliance and Brainworx worth checking out is Knifonium. https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products/knif_audio_knifonium.html "Capture the tone of a boutique synthesizer powered by 26 vacuum tubes The Knifonium is an exceptionally beautiful-sounding analog synthesizer that is driven by a whopping 26 vacuum tubes. This upscale synth features two tube-driven oscillators, a 4th order ladder filter, a ring modulator, and a gorgeous “steampunk” aesthetic.""One of the most rare synths in production today The original hardware units are handcrafted in small batches by high-end audio device designer Jonte Knif, with his incomparable sense for detail. As beautiful as these synthesizers are, the Knifonium is much more than a stunning piece of eye-candy capable of making “weird noises". It is an exceptionally musical and inspiring instrument with so many possibilities for shaping and modulating sound. Fewer than two dozen of them have ever been made." "Even more powerful than the original Not only is the plugin version of the Knifonium more accessible and easy to use than the original, it also includes features that aren’t possible in the analog world. This plugin emulation of the Knifonium adds 8 independent voices to the synthesizer, opening up a new universe of possibilities."

Michael Parson-McNamara Posted February 16, 2023 Author Share Posted February 16, 2023 Whoa the intro pad to this particular Knifonium video is quite the selling point! and the guy is offering that preset for free (well signing up to his site) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Knifonium is currently on sale for the next dew days at Plugin Alliance for $29.99 https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products/knif_audio_knifonium.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I would not worry about missing a PA sale. When one stops the next one starts. $30 for a PA plug-in is no big deal. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
