You could always try and use the free trial of Topaz Gigapixel AI. Topaz Gigapixel. Source: about 3 years ago

If you really need some good upscales, you can use an AI upscaler. They work much better than enhance details 2.0 imo. I think topaz gigapixel is pretty cool. Source: about 3 years ago

I know there are AI utilities out there like Topaz's Gigapixel to upscale low resolution images. However, those would probably not make the image on the left appear as good as the image on the right. Do any AI upscalers exist for pixel art that was meant to be displayed on CRTs to make the image appear as intended on LCD screens? While CRT filters and artificial scanlines exist, I'm not sure those deliver quite... Source: about 3 years ago

If you want it in a higher resolution I recommend using Gigapixel AI – Topaz Labs, in a nutshell it uses AI to upscale any kind of image, I used with some photos of mine from my Instagram that I downloaded in very poor quality, and after I put them through this software they came out with a quality even higher than before I uploaded them, kinda scary sometimes how good this works, it's paid though, but you can get...

Ther former has a libre and gratis standalone version, the plugin version is non-gratis. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

A music synthesizer. It's a pathway to learning electronics, music, and the nature of sound. There are cheap kits, cheap synths, lots of kinds of synths, and there are much more complicated and expensive systems you can grow into. You can get software synths also, VCV Rack is a free though complex one: https://vcvrack.com/ However I'd recommend an inexpensive hardware one with real knobs you can turn, like one... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

What really opened my eyes was the Nord Micromodular; it taught me what I just described. It showed me how limited other synths were - but that limitation was a trade-off because it's much faster to make something on a fixed-structure synth than on a modular, in most cases. Nowadays, you can use https://vcvrack.com/ instead of a small limited box that needs Windows 98 to run the editor on. Source: 11 months ago

Also I would suggest the paid version of VCV rack which works as a VST too ( the free version is just stand alone ) Expecially when experimenting with modular ( believe me, it can save you a fortune whilst you learn what different modules do ) I would also recommend Omri Cohens Youtube channel for learning this too.

Would be way easier with VCV rack than a DAW as there's already almost 3k modules including a lot of granular and other complex ones that blow away a lot of pedals: https://vcvrack.com/. Source: 12 months ago
