Hi,
newest info!

Klaus from V3Sound will make a special Soundmodule based on the standard V3 Sonority for VA2.
Next music trade fair in Frankfurt 2018 it should be ready!
If users have special wishes for example implementation of special megavoices for Yamaha Styles they can report this here!


I have the first version from Sonority and will report in the next weeks about sounds!
My first soundcheck is very convincingly!
GM Sounds are very realistic!

More infos in the next weeks!

Hi Werner, I like the concept: I would very much like to see at least 3-6x more samples of church organ, 3-6x more German organ and 3-6x more Hammond organ sounds, also the ability to add extra memory so that all the extra packs can be purchased together.

How is the testing going?

Greetings,
Phil

Hi Phil,
test in the moment is stopped because i am sick!

Add extra memory is possible because of SAM5716 as soundgenerator can have 8GB external sample memory.
In the moment it has 4GB. But in the moment V3SOUND has no plan to add 4GB memory because of hardware costs!

I tested most sounds and it has very very good sounds, most better than SD1000! The only problem is that you have to select sounds with INS-File and with SD1000 it is simpler!

I compared some Songs played with SD1000 and the same song then played with V3SONORITY.
I hear no difference! Many Solosounds like classic orchestra, accordion or hammond and Wersi sounds are better in quality!


But V3SOUND will for music fair frankfurt have a special V3SONORITY compatibel to SD1000!

Best regards
Werner

Hello Werner,

Thanks for the info, and may you get well soon  ;D

Bye the way, I have seen Deebach has finally released their Max (61 keys) and Maximus (88 keys) with following soundlist: http://www.deebach.eu/index_htm_files/Deebach-MAX%20Sound-Liste.pdf

Were you able to test this instrument in real-time? If so how does the Deebach Max(imus) compare to the V3 Sonority  Based on the given soundlist I think I would prefer the V3 Sonority since it at least containes a few stops of Classical organ and a nice selection of Theatre organ. The Max seems to be very strong on their Sax, the sax sounds of sonority on You Tube seemed a little weak to me. The great plus of the V3 Sonority would be the released INS-file and special adaptation for V-arranger.

Greetings,

Phil

Hi,
thank you.

I own no Deebach Max and heared only the sounds in youtube. Sound is good!

V3Sonority has more than this one sax demo in youtube!
And the gm sounds and the organ and accordion expansion soundpacks are very very good!
Theater organs and Hammond or german organ sounds very realistic! I own a Wersi Spectra and use it as Masterkeyboard for VA2. Sine Drawbar Sound from Sonority sounds like Wersi Spectra!
And Sonority has some good Wersi Helios Sounds!
Hear it on youtube!

Klaus from V3Sound will build a special edition for VA2 at music fair francfurt in 2018.

In the moment he has one SD1000 rent from me for implementation of the same soundbanks in Sonority!


Best regard
Werner
