Dune 2 ...absolutely fantastic ..audio rate modulation ..lil appreciation thread

[AnX]

Soundwise I find D2 a bit fluffy and grainy, not as shiny and silky as Hybrid 3

Are they technical terms?

Probably not We use attributes like that all the time, though. X sounds warm, Y sounds cold etc. Unless the reader is a robot, they will understand what is meant.

Well, ive been using synths for over 30 years. Ive no idea what it means.

They sturely aren't technical terms, but, which technical terms are there to describe sound?

Now all we need is that damn zoomable GUI...

Yes, a 125% option would be nice.

i was thinking 150%

I need 90% for my notebook, and 125% for my desktop.

[Cinebient]

125% and 150% would be great....in the meantime zooming it via my OS looks still usable in full screen.
Wait....now we changed from audio rate modulation to GUI size?
KVR at it´s best
(but i found the original GUI size still usable and it looks not too bad on my notebook...only the MSEG´s and arp are terrible to edit....it needs an own screen),

How about modulating the GUI size at audio rate?

150% does not fit your desktop screen ?

I am getting a little pissed off at how easy it is to label somebody as a troll in the forum these days just because they don't agree

Exactly! It reminds me these new wave of paper thin students needing a safety pin to talk to some one or a pet therapy .

[gentleclockdivider]

Some people here are a bit confused by the term audio rate .
It's all about the 'update rate of the modulation matrix which can be @ AUDIO/SAMPLE rate ...
As I have said earlier , a verry fast lfo ( or mod.osc ) does not benefit from a low internal update rate , which luckily is NOT the case with dune 2 .

[gentleclockdivider]

Anyone any idea why in the mod .matrix the value of '9' equals an octave when voice---->filter frequency and not 12 .
Choose bandpass , self resonanting ..a bit of noise ( ignite the filter ) , set kbd to 100 pct .
8 unsion voices , choose voice in matrix --->filter freq. , value 9 = an octave

Dune 2 is on christmas sale (till EOY).

It is fully skinnable, i.e. the skin size can be changed- we just haven't made factory skins in different sizes.

That said, with the release of Legend we started providing multiple UI sizes right away, and we will certainly continue that with future versions of DUNE too

May I ask what else is in the roadmap of Dune2 development? Or is it a finished product so there will be only maintenance updates?

Other than potential updates we have additional soundsets in the pipeline for DUNE 2, the next, third one should be out very soon

Or is it a finished product so there will be only maintenance updates?

DUNE 2 was basically finished ever since release, we just kept adding new stuff because its framework is flexible enough to do so without affecting existing projects, and because it was fun There's always a point though where you want to do some fundamental engine changes, and this point will probably come with DUNE 3 then (which will still be patch-compatible to DUNE 2 though).
