New Sonic Arts Granite Granular Texture Generator

Reminds me of what I did with the EPS16+ and ASR10 back in the 90s: Sampling with LFO modulated Position and other things to extend my simple „speech sample“ to make it a crowd on my first CD „regression“, well – here’s a PC only plugin that tries to do exactly that – since it is Windows this is just for you non Mac-ists. and it sounds like this to them.

Xplorer Oberheim Xpander & Matrix 12 Realtime-Editor/Automator (PC only)

Xplorer. is a PC only (looks like it) project, he says ok, here’s a newer demo of it – in action – his document is a rework of three old text files dealing with the Oberheim Xpander / Matrix-12 MIDI implementation.  This rework was done in order to get a more human readable set of information. Changes or additional information about the MIDI implementation were added when required. Redundant information between theses files was removed. A sample C/C++ source code of a single patch viewer is included in the archive.…

H264 im Visir: Googles neues Videoformat WebM

WebM ist das neue Ding von Google und basiert auf der Technik von V8, einem offenen „Standard“. Dieses Wort sollte man heute eigentlich meiden, besonders in der Kombination „Firma x bringt einen neuen Standard“ ;) Wieso? Weil ein Standard wirklich genau das ist, eine einheitliche Norm, die alle einhalten. Wie man das nur ausspricht? Web’em! Web-Em? Egal, open source ist ja immer gut. Google belebt jetzt ein wenig den Markt. Und wie? Nun, die Browser können das noch nicht, deshalb werden jetzt die Browser nachliefern, damit das überhaupt funktioniert und wie…

Wave Simulator – Waveterm C

Herr Seib has now put up the Wave Simulator. for free. Well it is PC/Win only, but it is free. emulating the main functions of the PPG Wave 2.2 / 2.3 and EVU. He says: Together with Paul Maddox, I developed a hardware/software combination to drag the PPG Waveterm into modern times – Waveterm C. I haven’t found the time yet to finish it – other projects, like VSTHost, consume too much of my time. Besides, the capabilities of today’s average computers have grown to a point where it’s relatively easy to simulate…

General Discussion: give me your feedback

There’s 2 or 3 little things I’d like to know: 1) as posted in prev. Post I normally prefer to not repost things rather than to push an older thread up again and to edit the new things – so you will have a more complete picture without lots of hopping – good? the only disadvantage may be: it will not appear as another RSS, no more Twitter or Facebook update is triggered and I can not tell you when I have checked this thing first – I ain’t bovvered…
