You hit some point! I was giving a quite drastic example to show what naming is about in the end as it has to meet certain requirements:Tricky-Loops wrote:FACT sounds like a news magazine, and OrgASM rather sounds like a swinger club.Fortune wrote:some nice suggestion so far but to be honest the real 'killer' name is not among yet
To give you an example:
as sugeested on facebook 'FACT' for 'Four part Algorithmic Composition Tool'
would be quite nice but 'Fact' in itself does not really provoke any deeper or elucidative imagination.
So, in fact, OrgASM would be much better 'Organic Algorithmic Sound Machine'
??? but is it really recommendable ???
A non-ambiguous, short name like "KOMPOSITOR" would be better.
It must appeal a wider audience AND entice imagination AND should reflect some outstanding peculiarity of the item or open some other imaginative relation. So the name should trigger something. And if I can't say spontaneously 'That's it!' to a suggestion it's simply not striking enough.
With this project the outstanding peculiarity is not the four parts but the algorithmic composing features therefore those suggetions reffering to '4' like all 'Quad' or so are only 2nd choice.
Some suggestions are nice but might interfere with others like 'O.A.S.I.S' with Korg's Oasis system and synth, or, like 'Serendipity' resembling too much my 'Serenity' VSTi.
It's not as easy as one may think ...
I'll be thinking about it though I've something in mind already ...Tricky-Loops wrote:BTW, as I have introduced the idea of the name-giveaway-contest - could I please get a free version of the finished ... (name to be given), anyhow?
