Thx Positron, probably I will need to do it myself :)

If you are prepared to do a joint product I can recommend ampli or strobe from Titan both of whom are very capable with tiny synths. Hang out in #titandemo on efnet. The best way I found was to create all the graphics first so the music guy knows you are serious and its worth his effort to learn your tool.

But hang on you are in Ravebusters and there are like 6 musicians there! Are you saying that Daxx etc are not interested?

it would strike me as really strange if none of the musicians in Ravebusters would support thier only coder, especially as you just released that lovely music disk for them.

Ampli is indeed great at writing tiny songs, also a good personal friend of mine and I could ask him if you cant get help from your group.

Nope, I can't say that, all that I know is that they are busy lately. I have started a topic at trbs forum about this synth and no one answered or downloaded it yet.

Thanks Shock, I'd know Ampli, he is really good, I still need to do some tests with that synth and probably I will try to contact him later.

Hopefully you will hook up with Ampli in the future :) I have heard some of Ampli's synth tunes and he's really great at getting good results from small samples and tiny synths.

How bad is this ?  Badly in need of a musician I think but some interesting sounds and a lot of potential. Is it a realtime synth?

@rbz:
its not easy to say how good or bad the tunes are, because i cant say how good or bad the tools of the musicians are (like, what tracker is he using, what are the features of the synth engine, what kind / number of samples and possible sample finetuning is possible for the musician and the synth engine?)

I think the two tracks are possible a good start but they are not my Kind of taste, possible because some notes seems to be wrong in the track.

Anyway nice synth and keep on your nice work on it!

Yes, I agree  :skint:
tracker version play in realtime and 4k version song is precalculated at start.

Paranoimia *couch* version it's not finished and sound wrong of course (sorry Felix Schmidt  :P) , I did it just to test tracker capabilities.

Bad?

The samples sound really nice, I think that a real musician could make something amazing with this synth. The samples are about the nicest I have heard in a 4KB synth.

@rbz:
one small question... are the samples self generated or are you using GM.dls for this?

I believe that he is generating the samples himself.

from his first post:

As you know, I'm working on a music player using gm.dls samples, and here a first preview, no gfx added sorry.

so it would be nice to know if he is still using gm.dls or does he moved the direction and generating the samples himself at runtime?

Not using gm.dls anymore, this is a real soft synthesizer, I've started coding this one since November 2007.

Glad you guys liked it

shockwave... maybe there is a live behind the demoscene... i'll ever support rbraz! but:

1.) i have much work at this time and my job (reallife) is more important.
2.) i have a new appartement 500 km away from the old one... it was very hard to manage this!
3.) i was not online for a long while because i had'nt internet connection!
4.) i have big private problems because i think about to separate from my wife!

All that problems fucked my brain so much, that i really can not stay in my group at the moment... more embarrassed is, that members seems to could'nt work without my presence. :(

King regards,
Chris

Hey Chris, I hadn't heard from you for a long time and I'm sorry to hear things are not working out for you  :-\ Hopefully life will get better for you soon.

Your marriage definately has to be more important than anything.

wow, almost 2 years and I still working on this soft synth  ;D

The synth now support stereo sound ! :||

I've attached a test file and just wonder if it will works for everyone, this test was written using dx9 and requires D3DX9_32.dll.

The test music was used on my entry for BreakPoint 2009 which can be found here.


Ps: wait for song precalc 20 ~ 40 seconds..
