How to: Authentic NES Chiptune Music in Vital - Synthesis Sound Design Tutorial

Download these presets, wavetables, and LFO's in my 8-Bit Mega Pack for Vital: https://synthpresetsplus.com/products/prod_RCV1le80AQDxxh More packs: https://synthpresetsplus.com Hear demos of all 100 presets here: https://youtu.be/8jhn2GlLwug One caveat about the track I made for the demo. I'm using Vital's portamento which is technically not authentic, as it is a "smooth" transition between notes. This would likely only be noticeable for big leaps like the lead right before Giga Guy's dance. However, the presets in my pack that use pitch modulation are authentic since the modulation is remapped to use maximum 16 steps. Also, regarding the triangle presets I demonstrate in the "double duty" section-I'm using an envelope to control volume, but that wasn't technically possible on the NES. There are 9 presets like this in my pack and I've marked them with the (cheat) label. For most of them I include an authentic alternative. In presets where using a macro would make the preset inauthentic, I added warnings in the preset description. Some folks are really passionate about authenticity and I want to accommodate them :-) While some of the presets I use in my track aren't 100% authentic, the techniques I suggest are.
