Helm Software Synth - The Mixer
Helm has a very simple but useful mixer. It controls the volume level of each of the sound sources.
There is a volume slider for each of the four sound generators in Helm: Oscillator 1, Oscillator 2, Sub and Noise.
You can use this Mixer to balance the sound of each sound generator to create your patches.
Each of the sliders in the Mixer can can be controlled by other components of Helm, such as the LFOs. By activating the 'helmet' on an LFO then selecting a slider in the Mixer the LFO will control the mixer. I demonstrate how this is done in this video tutorial.
I hope you have enjoyed this video tutorial on Helm. There will be more tutorials to follow.
Cheers,

Interesting software synth here. The layout seems really good for instructional use. Is there anything about it that you feel is particularly unique about it? It looks interesting but I feel like I have so many vst synths that I'm worried that adding one more that doesn't do something unique will just result in me never using it.
Besides that, I love the videos. Keep it up!
