Aalto looks Buchlaesque – Softsynth

This one reminds a lot of Buchla 200e’ish sound design. in fact it has a main OSC modulated by another „Mod OSC“ plus Waveshaping which isn’t a bad idea, still. They say they did it for expressiveness – true, tho‘ – so.. and here’s the link to them – and the SynthDB entry about Aalto says.. to me very usable at the smallest possible component number at maximum output and efford to get interesting sounds as fast as you can beside a very classic structure of a – say – Nord Lead…

Synthesizer-Diplom (Softwaresynthesizer)

Digitale Synthesizer 3. Synthesetechniken 3.3.1. Softwaresynthesizer Wie sicher schon zu erkennen war, stellt diese Gattung die Zukunft und die Gegenwart der digitalen Synthesizer dar. Die unspezifische „Verpackung“ (Gehäuse) eines Computers als Synthesizer ist natürlich für ein offenes System geeignet. Der Native Instruments „Generator“ ist ein Modular – Synthesizer, der komplett auf einem Pentium Rechner (mind. 100 Mhz) „läuft“ und in seiner Komplexität und Parametrisierung nur durch die vorhandenen Module (Software), die Kreativität des Benutzers, sowie die Rechenleistung beschränkt wird: Ein Synthesizer der Komplexität eines Sequential Prophet 5 kann auf einem…
