I had the pleasure of visiting Hans Zimmer in this studio some years ago... Can't believe the amount of modular synths has grown since then. This synth plugin sounds amazing but what got me is how effortlessly he gets such varied and captivating tones from it...
What a journey Hans Zimmer has been. A true legend. I still remember his media ventures days when literally the general public didn’t know him. Now he has got so famous !
I resisted VST Synth for a long time, but my first one was THE Legend. Actually I almost only use Synape Synths, like Dune or Obession with some Diva and Repro. Nobody needs more. It's nice that HZ recognized that too, since he has almost all of the original synths. I love this Synth ;-) but noch wih HZ Version ? Do we get an Upgrade for this ? ;-)
I don't get it, what's so special about it? lol That's pretty standard specs for a synth, let alone a plugin... but it does sound nice from what I heard so far!
Just want to follow up on my first comment: This synth sounds SO good. You can use the effects with a light touch to make the sound pop. With that said, the mod matrix and sequencer/arp have been HUGE. This synth combined with Obsession have just transported me to instant inspiration. Truly so well done. If you are on the fence about this synth, take the chance! If it seems to be in your wheelhouse, it IS in your wheelhouse. So good!

Hi Synapse Audio, what are the chances that the Legend HZ upgrade will be released for the Rack Extension? I love the Legend RE and the HZ upgrade looks damn good.
@@synapseaudio2488 While you're here, I have The Legend Rack Extension but it's not showing up on my Synapse Audio account. Is there a way that I can still qualify for the upgrade discount?
The Legend HZ has two hundred new presets. The old presets are also included as an optional download. If you have the old Legend installed, it will still function as previously.
@@synapseaudio2488 So will they work as separate plugins in parallel? I saw in the manual that HZ has the same dll name (i.e. Legend.dll) as the "normal" one. Is a typing error in the manual? No compatibility problems with patches made onto Legend? I read in the manual that the patches folder is different for HZ (on Windows).
I initially thought Windows but I think it's all Mac?! He has the white Mac keyboard in from of him and the first screen on the left appears to be the macOS Catalina default image. He probably has a maxed-out RAM system though. The last screen might be RME Totalmix for the sound card, such as a Fireface UFX model.
Hanze Zimmer has a Colossus .I joke with my wife about getting a Colossus .It is about the same price as a Ford Mustang . But really cheaper .Don't have to register it .The Colossus is much more useful as well .All that sound ! One could spend a lifetime ? As opposed to just getting around ?
Would have been nice if we could keep the original Legend, and just pay $79 for the HZ version, since people already own the original version. So people like myself can have both at the same time, instead of upgrading, and losing the original version. 🤷♀😳 It would be pretty easy to do, all you need is a couple of IF-Statements and comparison operators to determine if the person already owns the original.
So we have TWO LEGENDS here 😊
Wherever Hans lays his hands on suddenly it becomes classic.Great one

One of the best synths i have tested. Amazing work
You can clearly hear and see how much Hans enjoyed the experience. Amazing synth.
I don't even need to watch this video to know I'm getting this!! 🔥
Absolut right. Me too
What a studio, what a legend!
Anything Synapse does is like WOAH
I am speechless.
WOW! This is sooo great! I never bought an Upgrade that fast! As a Reason User i personally can´t wait to use it as a RE later this year...! BIG LOVE!
Looks really good sounds amazing.
hell yea can't wait for the rack extension !!
It just struck me - Legend HZ. HZ !!! Hans Zimmer !!!
Really excited to try this out!
Very very nice. That red fader box looks quite tasty as well! 😮
I've got the full Arturia pack but I still come back to The Legend all the time. I might have to upgrade
Congratulations... What a journey. I can remember having so much fun with the TS404 then Orion... Long life Synapse Audio.
Awesomesauce.👍
This synth looks like it can do incredible things. 🔥
Nice setup Hans ! The Legend HZ sounds epic
Fantastic! Next up, a Vince Clarke Soundset please ;-)
This one sounds incredible!
What a journey Hans Zimmer has been. A true legend.
I still remember his media ventures days when literally the general public didn’t know him.
Now he has got so famous !
a beautiful thing thanks Hans and Synapse!
Incredible studio
May i kindly ask which exactly preset we can hearing at the begining ? It sounds amazing.
"All Osc" from the Bass category. Hans may have tweaked a few knobs though, so can't say for sure it is the exact same patch.
Hans digging the Depeche Jacket. Love it !

I love this Synth ;-) but noch wih HZ Version ? Do we get an Upgrade for this ? ;-)
Casual request for a linux version.
I bought The Legend RE for Reason a few years ago and it was astonishing is there a croosgrade price for the HZ? ❤
Yes you can upgrade from The Legend RE. Simply get in touch with us.
@synapseaudio2488 ♥️♥️
Wow! 6 osc and mod matrix 💛💙
I don't get it, what's so special about it? lol That's pretty standard specs for a synth, let alone a plugin... but it does sound nice from what I heard so far!
You're a Master Hans 🎹👍👌👋
awesome maestro!!!!!
Very Nice Hans! 🎹😎👍
love original Legend plugin, its a simple and understanding instrument.
2:46 I could listen to that sound on loop all day long
Sounds so sick
get well Hans 🙂

Nice to see he has an Expressive E Touché. Does this synth support extended MIDI?
I suppose you mean MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression)? MPE is supported in The Legend HZ yes.
Just picked it up!
This is mind blowing.
the moog sound is timeless
This is awesome! 😎
Hahaha MEEEGA!!! Playing the dramatic Sound to the beginning of the Video !! Thank you so much ! YMMD 🌻

Rack extension version let's goooooo! HYPE
Wow.... the vintage gear he has there, i would know.wtf to start, but i DEF know all that craziness has created some exceptional awesomeness, lol.
I was hoping for a proper update, hurray! :)
Talk about an impressive setup.
amazing
Instant buy
Great!! What controller is the Red thing? Or is custom made?
I wanted to know the same thing. Did you find out? If it's custom, I'm sure they would release it for sale.
Hans is a Synapse Audio fan. I wonder if he used Dune 3 on the movie Dune soundtrack.
SUPERCOOL...It's Great...best regards !
Hans Down a brilliant synth from of Course Ze Master ! I Thank you LOL
Hi Synapse Audio, what are the chances that the Legend HZ upgrade will be released for the Rack Extension? I love the Legend RE and the HZ upgrade looks damn good.
I was thinking the same thing.
Hi, the Rack Extension is under development and far progressed, so chances are very good!
@@synapseaudio2488 While you're here, I have The Legend Rack Extension but it's not showing up on my Synapse Audio account. Is there a way that I can still qualify for the upgrade discount?
@@synapseaudio2488 😍🤩😍🤩
What's the red fader bank he is using?
What is the red thing, I probably need one. thx
ChoiSauce Designs - great sized midi controller with a nice long sweep - i do need one.
I had the same question. Did you find out yet?
@@BillMcFadden yes, search "ChoiSauce Designs"
Oh, niiiice! :)
Awesome. What is that red fader box?
Yes, I was wondering that too. Did you find out?
Grossartiger Synth
Musste mir ihn sofort zulegen😊😊😊😊😊 3:40
Gorgeous sounds! Anybody can tell me the name of the red device with the sliders that Hans is using? Are they motorized? Thanks!
I was wondering the same thing. Did you find out?
@@BillMcFadden Nope :(
Woaah!
That room oozes option paralysis.
Because of Hans Zimmer I've sticked to D minor scale when testing an instrument
I love this sound - is the reverb from the Legend itself?
That's correct.
Yes, but extended with more parameters and a new "Room" mode.
What music software is this compatible with?
Any sequencer/DAW that supports the VST or Audio Unit plug-in standard, as well as ProTools.
Hans why do you need this software synth when you have a wall of great modular synths All around you?
loving how Hanz still be using Cubase 12 instead of 13 - wise choice
Awesome! Is this Mac Sonoma compatible?
Yes🙂
@@synapseaudio2488 Excellent, sold, thanks for the reply!
What kind of Midi cc is the Red Box? I am looking for it to control my Spitfire Orchestras. Thanks
Did you find out? Pls let me know when you do.
Hi Bill, No I didn`t if I found it I will let you know. Thanks
How to initialize the synth ?
So, what am I going to do with my ZebraHZ? I bought it because of you Mr. Zimmer! Now, you got LEGEND? 🙃
rip cpu :)
its all about HZ !
Just thinking about the amount of knowledge required just to understand the basics of what's happening in setups like this, makes my brain hurt.
As this is an upgrade does it supersede the Legend OG? If so, does it have the same presets as the OG?
The Legend HZ has two hundred new presets. The old presets are also included as an optional download. If you have the old Legend installed, it will still function as previously.
@@synapseaudio2488 So will they work as separate plugins in parallel? I saw in the manual that HZ has the same dll name (i.e. Legend.dll) as the "normal" one. Is a typing error in the manual?
No compatibility problems with patches made onto Legend? I read in the manual that the patches folder is different for HZ (on Windows).
@@polarisglow Yes they work in parallel. We will check the manual, certainly could be a typo.
@@synapseaudio2488 Thanks.
He uses Cubase or Nuendo??....
Cubase
HZ: Hold my beer
What's the red midi controller he's using?
Wondering the same thing. Did you find out?
Greats 👋
Thank you so much for the upgrade price from The Legend. I'm already up and running.
6 oscillators…it’s a Moog Modular…
"Tighter" than your average VI synth and more musical. Mono re-amping and parallel mixing will add depth and those important low-mids.
HZ stands for Hans Zimmer?
6 OSC?? Omfg! 😱😱😱
sold
Those asking about the red box faders its from choi sauce design
wow
Just curious. Is he using Mac or PC ?
I initially thought Windows but I think it's all Mac?! He has the white Mac keyboard in from of him and the first screen on the left appears to be the macOS Catalina default image. He probably has a maxed-out RAM system though. The last screen might be RME Totalmix for the sound card, such as a Fireface UFX model.
@@NearSilentthe windows have exit button on the top right so looks like PC
@@vadimmartynyuk Yes! Now I've rewatched it on my large screen it's clear as daylight! He must be running both systems for compatibility.
Would love this, but dont have the cash right now!!
Am I trippin or is he not using weighted keys?
Oooow 🤩🤩🤩
2:27 Anyone else having Tangerine Dream vibes?!
That was why he said don’t forget the Berlin School.
@@entropybentwhistle Ha! I must have subconsciously registered that!
Hanze Zimmer has a Colossus .I joke with my wife about getting a Colossus .It is about the same price as a Ford Mustang . But really cheaper .Don't have to register it .The Colossus is much more useful as well .All that sound ! One could spend a lifetime ? As opposed to just getting around ?
Is it a demonstration of what can be done with this plugin or a look at the billions of dollars that this man has in his studio?
Would have been nice if we could keep the original Legend, and just pay $79 for the HZ version, since people already own the original version.

It would be pretty easy to do, all you need is a couple of IF-Statements and comparison operators to determine if the person already owns the original.
You do keep the original version. It works just like in our Dune series, where owners of Dune 1 who upgraded own all versions simultaneously.
@@synapseaudio2488
OK, thank you for clearing that up.
Very good to know. Then I am definitely getting it soon. Thank You 🥰🥰🥰
Holy shitballs
I will buy it as soon as the Rack Extension for Reason comes!
