i wouldn't worry, what with all the voodoo on my products it's an accomplishment if you can remember anything about them :)

No but xoxos, I remember in some thread I was asking you about having single plugins sliced from bong and you said that a drum machine is the thing to do. And here I am asking for something that's already there, in a thread where you're announcing a whole another drum module. :P It has certain irony to it. Plus the document editor aspect there.

But yea, no big deal, and it's actually good. I've been synthesizing a lot lately in order to have new sounds to play with and some more synthesizing -- I don't mind that. You got good manuals too, by the way. I suppose I was a bit overwhelmed back when I bought bong and got like twenty other plugins to go with it, I did some test tunes then but now it's high time I put the rest of them to better use as well.

And that evil, man, how it thrives on laziness of people..



And Taifunk, your english is just fine -- there's a lot of non-english people here talking english, and people generally don't mind if someone makes a mistake. And it's only getting better by using it. Thanks for the tips and welcome on board.

this forum is pretty much for vaporware product announcements anyway :) (mon is an alright basis but need a bit more before it's worth making, even as f/w)

a few times this last year i get creepy (i said it) "enthusiastic" emails from someone about breathcube 2 eg. demanding i send them my latest work with capslock on select passages, typical "disturb" strategies. the goal is of course to discourage me from thinking about such projects through diminuitive, negative, impetus lacking exercises in "encouragement".

did have a thought.. used to think a "full on" bc v. would have CG planets, and stop at venues with procedurally generated bands.

too much bloody work of course, scaled it down yesterday.. instead of a planet, how about just a procedurally gen. singer-dancer/face hehe.. maybe like the face on one side and the body on the other. and then straight trippy graphics behind that. a face (cg but earnest... procedurality gets you honesty) probably keep people glued to the monitor for hours. now i need to figure out something i'm doing where i'd want that to happen and i'm golden.

Hi xoxos I was not there in previous years, I do not like vaporware. I'm having more fun with your vst and every day I discover something new and the only regret not having discovered before, I do not want to disturb, look patiently for your new products. But I need new xoxos products, you made me a voodoo :drunk:
I'm curious about mon, I also heard "there you go" very nice especially the wind instruments (aurora?) Syng2 is great never heard anything like that, I hope to have it. :)

xoxos kinda came into being with the advent of synthedit's vst publishing. my early life advantaged me with computers and education, my cultural experiences made me ~a "diversity advocate" (a gentle way of stating my extreme objection to many predominant cultural behaviours) so i helped to proliferate free vst tools so that people with "unfunded" cultures or behaviours would have an opportunity to express themselves in the authoritative manner. which it was, back when only a few people could afford to make their ideas sound tremendous and ideologically/memetically monumental.

so underdog guy, occasionally person who makes free versions of something people used to sell so i am quote bad unquote, now antique self absorbed haha but i had a depthy involvement with synthesis basics, and specialised in physical modeling and generative "algorithmic" stuff and had a boutique appreciation which is where i launched my plugin career (after being stalked out of a job) and became evil. i've been selling junk since, but generally i advantage the niche of "things that can be easily done but other people don't do them" -

like radian, radian is a neat tool, not perfect, because there's nothing above samplerate/4, but it's achieved using very primitive additive synthesis of a cheap dsp sine osc. there are like a dozen free windows exes around the web that physics students have made that generate circular membrane wav files.. bessel function is a tough bit of thing, but not impossible, yet for years... no synth model drum vst! i've been able to exploit that for a decade because so few others do.

imo using physical models is informative and neato, and it would be good if kids when they are young learning shit could use things, but society is evil. you use modeled synths, you use synths informedly, then go out into the world, and you can hear informedly, and even hear parametrically or quantifiably with application. what an educational opportunity! denied by cultural, habitual selfish profit.

nowadays there's not too much i can make that hasn't been done, or that is really worth it. like mon was a trick using some basics, but the method is a bit too intensive without something i don't have yet. but there's less point in my marketplace presence as things have shifted memetically, in the noosphere, music is cheap.

but the dsp i release is just basic, and things anyone can achieve with common knowledge. i guess they leave it for me. i leave them plenty too :p

message received,have all my respect :) in my opinion I'm sure that at some point will come anyway something surprising from xoxos . :tu:
if you look at the past, we realize that many people continue to copy only things that have been already made. people focus too much on emulations of old equipment and waste time to compare if this is the same or if this is better than that and spends a lot of money for what?
Music is an art and people should focus on this, the music is not made with money but with emotions and emotions are the meaning of life. I often find myself making speeches redundant, now just about bits and buy, I find around people that instead of thinking about music or to give constructive suggestions, just ask, and more and more 64-bit versions, will shortly will ask for hardware version?
People forget that talent can not be bought! I'm not a child I have a few years and I like to do things the old way, I buy new tools only when really it's worth it and I need it, otherwise use the awesome tools free and I do not worry it's 64bit or if they are synthedit much less aliasing because I love aliasing, my old hardware equipment is devastated and it sounds like shit but I do not bother to compare this with virtual instruments though I keep it as a souvenir, I'm poor and I bought this with many sacrifices . same sacrifices I make to buy vst for example no longer use my old devastated tr 909 now use Bong! when I bought bong I bought it with the spirit of when I bought my tr 909. I was looking for something unique and I found it. Instead of using my old hardware sampler Adze use now because my old roland sampler will not play never like Adze.
I do not seek a 128-bit PC with 128-bit vst for me 32 bits are also too many are not an aerospace engineer is a simple lover of sound and music. Now with my cheap studio on a USB key are happy to do what I could not even imagine 20 years ago.
Why play many notes when you can play one and well :?:
why try to buy 200 synth to make a song, when one synth you can do 200 songs.
I can not spend 200 dollars to buy a vst but I can spend 30 dollars to support a developer who puts the soul in what he does. :clap:
I am proud of this and people should think a little more and get back to talking about music we're here for this or am I wrong?
I write this not 'is a response to you xoxos not get me wrong.
this speech is not meant to be offensive are just crap that go through my mind and I apologize in advance for my 8-bit English :)

that's cool :)
