Has anyone tried this thing? Supposedly it has 4,294,967,296 presets in an .exe file that's only 4 MB. Yes, that is over 4 billion presets!

Here's the site - http://www.image-line.com/documents/autogun.html (http://www.image-line.com/documents/autogun.html)

I just got Omnisphere which boasts thousands of patches at over 40 GB.

Thoughts anyone?

Rock on!

My thought; it better have a lot of presets since you can't program it.

[EvilDragon]

Of course when those are random-generated

I downloaded the Autogun and yeah you cannot program it, however, I
believe that you can take patches from Autogun and import them into Ogun
and tweak them from there...I may be completely wrong on that.

I think Autogun is free as on the Image Line page it
doesn't show a price and it doesn't state it is a demo. I've been using Autogun ( mainly just listening to presets..LOL ) for a few weeks now and it appears not to be a demo.

In that case does it have any presets?

I assume this is just a non user controllable version of Ogun

I like the idea of sharing presets, finding them, every user has different presets - it may be hmm funny but more seriously I prefer 50 good presets over 5000 average, mediocre.

Say! that looks fun! Thanks!

yeah- it's kind of like a 'Multiverse' approach to synthesis- the presets are all possible parameter states-

if only they could tack on that old idea that Brian Eno used to talk about- where the synth gives you 10 presets- and you pick the one that is closest to the sound you want- then it gives you 10 more presets close to the first one you picked- and you pick once that is closer- and so on until you get the sound you want

I'm debating about downloading this... I mean it seem like an interesting idea, but I don't even use Ogun.

Has anyone made good use of this yet?

[D N A]

I don't use (sh)ogun too, but actually i'm curious about autogun hehe

That is correct. Ogun's engine without the controls.

True.. I'm curious too, and after-all it is free.

Hell, i'll download it and see what happens.

I've always loved this idea from Eno. Why hasn't someone done it???

Synplant does this and more.

I love it! I have been checking out the "presets" and found some marvelous ones.
