Would really like to try this VST. I couldn't load it into SaviHost or MiniHost.

Hi XL2,

I've just tried it myself in savihost and it just runs on my computer (surprisingly, as my computer has been crashing more and more last week when I open programs. Waiting for my new computer for a week now, still hasn't been delivered... ) :(

Getting my blofeld to work, was just setting the midi-output of savihost to the right midi-output of my soundcard.

Don't forget to enter the full name in your savihost-file: "automathico V1"

btw, are you running 64bit or 32bit? As this VST will probably only run on 32..

also, people can also visit my free-vst(i) thread on www.synthforum.com, loads of different sequencers, synthesizers and effects:

Automathico now running fine. Really like the idea of looping math formulas. Looking into this further with amazement. System block diagram might help lessen the learning curve. And with MIDI output allowing for own sounds !

A system block-diagram might indeed be a good idea, I could add that to the help page (I read I wasn't allowed to change the plugin itself during the challenge, I may only fix bugs, but adding things to the help file should be ok, right?)
About the MIDI output.. I don't really understand that question... as this VST doesn't make any sound at all.. it's MIDI only and it's first goal already is to use your own hardware/software synthesizers/samplers.. (or use it to control the SIK-FXD multi-glitch-effect, posted in my thread on synthforum (25 effects, can be played all together, trigger with dedicated midi-note, velocity controls main parameter)

ok, I did not really find a way to quickly add the diagram, but here it is on my synthforum thread:

The link isn't to the AutoMathico diagram. I'd still like a diagram to help in understanding the overall flow. The plugin is as useful as it is complex. A diagram would be of much help in understanding how to use.

I really like how AutoMathico outputs MIDI. That way I can try out many sound generators.

Great VST.

not sure you've received the message about the diagram, but by this.. it's uploaded..

here I've got a file with 16 new other vst(i) I've made last months. Some fairly simple, some a bit more complex. Featuring sequencers, synthesizers, effects and midi-tools (useful for combining with Automathico and splitting up midi-channels, changing it's midi-channel and send it to different vst's inside your host.)

btw the vst-pack-link is online for 1 month only! so get it while you can...

and ps. Trickshot V1.3 was my former idea as entry for the DC12 challenge, before I had the idea about the automathico..Haven't tried it out, but might well be an awesome company for the automathico, now I think about it..

diagram is also uploaded as screenshot of the vst, you should be able to see it.,.. as I can see it myself right now

For the life of my I can't get this plugin to show up in Cubase 6.5. Windows 7 64 bit running 32 bit Cubase.

I've tested the plugin on a windows7 computer of a friend of mine running cubase5, which worked.
I've put the plugin (instrument!) in the 'others' folder within the vst-folder in programs(x86).

Then pressed F11 in cubase and loaded the automathico in the screen somewhere. (sorry, I don't have a lot of experiences using cubase. Up till now I created my tracks in one go, without post-mastering the recorded tracks as my computer can't load enough wav-tracks to post-master a track. So my choice of vst-host is mostly based on MIDI and audio routing capabilities for vsts, which pushed me towards fruityloops. And.... WOOHOO!! while I was writing this my new computer got delivered!! ok, so ehm, from now, I WILL be able to load (any) samples for post-mastering ghehehe :P

but ehm, where did I strayed off?

ah! Press F11, and then you should be able to load the automathico VST overthere. After that, load a VST instrument and select the automathico as midi-input.

is the problem fixed?

essentially yes, thanks for the follow up. it was indeed my blacklist that was the problem. I think i'm about to do a system reinstall though as i'm overdue, and the latest cubase update just effed me up a bit.

thanks again for the help!

Thnx SirSicksic for the system diagram. With a device this complex its very welcome. Thanks

I've uploaded update V1.02 to my synthforum webpage.

you can download it using this link:

updates includes deleting of an old, lost module, which produced crashes in usine and XT. Also, the poly-knob recorder is already included. But this is covered with an image which will disappear after the contest (ok, not exactly, but I didn't want to waste any more of our beloved CPU on this..). Because of this and the loss of the old project, the mono-knob recorder also has a bit different layout.

Next to this I've added several presets with explanation in the explanation-box (was already there, but didn't contain any helpful text yet.. haha)

Also fixed some little z-order layer mistakes.

Hi and thanks for your interesting contribution. Can't seem to load either Automathico V1 or FX in Ableton Live. I get infinite SynthEdit boxes: "Can't load SE plugin: The specified module could not be found. {vstpath}\Automathico V1\SystemCommand.sem and it goes on forever (or at least beyond my patience :)

Also, the zip file in the link to the 1.02 file is corrupt - I can't extract it with latest WinRar.

Any clues to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!
