Introducing Cthulhu presets that you can download for free
I don't have much time at all so I'm going because it's light.
It will be updated firmly on Saturdays and Sundays.
CthulhuThe initial preset is pretty lonely.
If you use Cthulhu, you can't really do it without adding presets.
Try the free presets first.
That's why I've been looking for a preset that can be downloaded for free.
Please refer to the following article for how to add presets.
Kvr
There was a person who raised the preset of Cthulhu in KVR which is often taken care of.
We recommend "Soul Chords by Nicholas Mills" at the top of the thread.
There is a code like this.
Boards of Canada Chords and Variations in Xfer Records Cthulhu
Speaking of which, you can extract chords from existing songschordifyThere is a site called.
Someone used that service to distribute the Codes of Boards of Canada songs as Cthulhu presets.
This service may write a separate article.
You can enjoy the atmosphere of Boards of Canada with pretty good code.
This is recommended as it contains a considerable amount.
I played with it for a while.
Free Neo Soul Cthulhu preset
This preset was in a reddit thread.
I don't recommend it very much.

Introductory summary of Cthulhu presets that can be downloaded for free
If you've bought Cthulhu but haven't used it, try the free presets first.
And once you get used to it, it's a good idea to start working on paid presets.
I think I'll do a paid version review after or after how to use it.
Comment
Thank you for updating while you are busy!
I haven't bought it yet, but I thought I'd buy it at the end of this month or the beginning of next month to get a bonus for the plug-in boutique.
I wanted a support tool with high quality presets and a wide variety of variations, even if it was paid.
I didn't feel like buying the popular Scaler because of the variation, but Cthulhu seemed to fill it.
Yosi seems to have both, so I'd like to ask, but how do you feel about the quality of the presets, including the paid Cthulhu and Scaler?
I think that the Scaler has a shorter history, so it's less (or almost none?).
By the way, since it's Xfer, you can always buy it, thinking that there is no sale, right?
I would be grateful if you could answer when I have time!
Thank you for your comment!
I'm really happy to have you buy the plug-in I recommend.
Scaler and Cthulhu, but the recommendations vary from person to person.
I think Scaler is better for those who write songs from music theory.
Cthulhu is recommended for those who want to write songs intuitively.
(I'm the latter, so Cthulhu fits nicely)
Scaler has no additional presets, and it increased a little when it became Ver2.
It's basically a plugin that's more convenient for assembling your own code than using presets.
In the latest version, the arpeggiator has been enhanced.
Cthulhu has great paid presets.
It's a lot, and it's great that you can easily get the code of your favorite genre.
> By the way, since it's Xfer, you can always buy it, thinking that there is no sale, right?
Yes, Xfer is not on sale, so it doesn't change whenever you buy it.
thank you for your reply!Information that there is no sale is helpful!
I'm lonely because I like sales, but I'm grateful that I don't regret it whenever I buy it.
I was looking for something that could intuitively make high quality code, so it feels like I found a real bargain.
After all, I'm satisfied with the functions around music theory with Captain Plugins.
I mentioned earlier that it's difficult to use, but I think you can do something almost like Scaler with a plugin called Captain Play.
Moreover, there is a mode specialized for computer keyboards and it can be used as it is, so I thought that the differentiation from Scaler was a code preset.
If the arpeggiator is also a single note, I personally recommend Captain Melody, which is the strongest because it allows you to control the rhythm freely and quickly.Of course, if you want to combine it with chords, PhraseBox!
So, when Cthulhu becomes the strongest chord preset, you may not understand why Scaler is finally popular.
By the way, Captain Plugins has Captain Beat as a sister plugin, but it's really bad, so you shouldn't buy it.
Captain Beat is a rhythm plug-in, but it's really just a MIDI bundle.
It cannot be linked with Captain Plugins. It's the Captain series, but I think it's a completely different plug-in series.
However, there is a possibility that Captain Beat will be garbled, so it is difficult to say that you should never buy it.
That's because Captain Melody used to be just a collection of melody presets, and in the past it became a powerful plug-in with Ver 3.0.
Since the introduction video of Sleepfreaks is Captain Melody that can not be used at the time of the previous version, there may be few people buying it because of that ... w

The sale is also motivating, so it would be nice if you could give it a try.
Whenever I buy it, I think it's the same, so I put it off quite a bit, and I'm leaving the Delay of Valhalla I'm thinking of buying ... w

Thank you for the information!
When I saw it on the site, I thought that the set was more profitable.
Considering the future, it seems like you might buy it.
Actually, Captain Plugins were on sale on Black Friday and I was really worried about buying them.
I think the reason is that some blog wrote that Orb is better than Captain Plugins.
Maybe he was using that article Ver 3.0 or earlier ...
I will buy Captain Plugins at the next sale.
Also, the following Cthulhu presets seem to be good now.
I will inform you by flying.
I will buy it and write a separate sale article.
(Even in ADSR, the roses are at the top of the ranking, so there seems to be no loss.)

Thank you for the information!
Actually, if you buy a preset, I thought that the bundle is cheaper, so when I was looking for it, I found that site too.
However, since it was a manufacturer that I had never bought, I decided to put it off after checking it.
It was a manufacturer that was also sold at ADSR!Then it is safe.
I'm sorry that the reply overlapped with the reply, but I'm getting information while I'm busy, so please give me the information in return.
> I think it was because some blog wrote that Orb was better than Captain Plugins.
By the way, I didn't mention Orb so much last time, so I will write it. AI is vulnerable to words, so I have both (laughs)
Orb is a standalone version of Orb Composer 1.5 (not officially sold, only available at Plugin Boutique. May not be updated in the future)
And there is a plug-in version of Orb Producer Suite, and the plug-in version has just been developed and seems to have less features.
Since I'm a Mac user, the standalone version doesn't work, so I'm writing on the assumption that it's a plug-in version.
I don't know how it's mentioned in that blog, so I'm not sure if it's the correct answer, but I think the blog mention is correct depending on which feature you're evaluating.
Both plugins have similar configuration. The plug-in for generating chords becomes the mother ship and generates melody and bass.
In addition to this, Orb has a plug-in dedicated to arpeggios, and has the function of reading MIDI of a melody and generating harmony.
Captain Plugins must definitely start from Chord, so Orbs that can start from the melody are the best.
Also, if you look at the two plug-ins as "automatic composition" plug-ins, Orb will definitely produce better songs.
However, this is because the automatic composition function of Captain Plugins is weak, and Orb is not excellent.
In particular, the plug-in in charge of the bass called Captain Deep is just a collection of MIDI presets, and it is not a match.
Also, if you make the recommended Captain Melody a fully automatic composition, you will often end up with something that makes you wonder.
Orb is Orb and this is!It feels like you have to press the generate button 50 times to get the result.
However, the two plug-ins are obviously different in idea, so you should not compare them with the "automatic composition" function.
Orb is a plugin with a very strong AI color.Therefore, the songs created by automatic composition are also consistent.
However, it is doubtful that it is at a usable level.Also, there are too few random parameters that can be set during generation.
Please check on the official website.The parameter that can be set is that the line comes out from the circle at the bottom left of the screen.
https://www.orb-composer.com/orb-producer-suite/
I think this is because it is necessary to reduce the parameters to let AI learn, but it is quite difficult to adjust as expected because the parameters are too close to AI and not music theory. is.
Or rather, it was impossible for me.Obviously it will be faster to use other plugins.
I used only the code because it is easy to randomize, but I think that the quality of the code that Cthulhu can do will be higher.It's much more intuitive.
On the other hand, Captain Plugins is a composition "support" software.It's closer to the Scaler than the Orb.
However, I think that Orb has been compared because it imitated the configuration of Captain Plugins.
The code is also a preset rather than an automatic generation.However, all the parameters are music-theoretic and easy to understand.
The random parameters that can be set with Melody are also very music-theoretic and easy to understand, such as the first key when the chord is switched, the probability of generating each key that matches the chord, and the width and range of key movements. ..
So, with the help of others, I'm sure Captain Plugins can do better.
yosi feels that his thoughts on MIDI workflows are closer to me, so I'm sure Captain Plugins are the better choice.
I've been touching various AI systems regardless of the composition, but I don't think I've reached the point where I can handle everything even if I'm very good as an assist.
In that sense, Orb, which leaves everything to AI, is futuristic, but my conclusion is that Captain Plugins are superior as an assist.
It's difficult to put it together in a sentence.The talk was coming and going and it wasn't very organized.
I'm glad if you can use it as a reference.
Sorry for late reply.
Thank you for the information!

I was surprised that Orb Composer 1.5 suddenly became a plug-in and the GUI changed considerably.
Suddenly, stand-alone is a discon, isn't it?
I bought the Orb Synth when it was cheap, so I think I'll try if I have a crogre.
Captain Plugins and Cthulhu seem to go well together.

I see-Melody really feels excellent and greed is increasing.
Was there a charge for Apgre when the version went up?
I feel that it is quite important whether or not to include Captain Beat.
(It's no good now, but I'm worried about it in the future)
