Thanks,
I'm not sure what I will sample,
I think I prolly won't focus on Virus-like forms.
I can chop out sections of .wavs and resample them to make the single-cycles.

Cheers mate,
I reckon I will make some original forms

These Virus wavetables are no longer available anywhere from me

There used to be a freeware wavetable editor for the Wiard Modular synth, but it seems to have disappeared from the web. Maybe you can use a (free) additive synth to create the waves and sample/edit those. Maybe this one: http://www.amvst.com/addtablesynth

Just trying to help out a bit

I'm definitely keen on making patches, Nick. Will keep my eyes peeled for the update. Already made 9 patches, but will need to make adjustments on those using the new waveforms. Good to see you've decided to bin the Virus waves. Btw, I dont make spare time to program a synth I just "kinda" like. There is some real potential here.

Cheers Crimson! Your help is really appreciated,
and thanks also for not forgetting me after the copyright issue.
What I will do as far as forms is make 8 variation on each of the 5 basic forms-
then I will just make some random complex shapes,
until the 128 slots are full.
The other synth I have built allows sampling of the output stream,
so this should be straightforward.

Xenos, that's very encouraging that you feel this could become something,
I have now a new beta with the LFO speed mod you requested.
I will still do a little more today I think.
Also I added a second noise osc, and cycle length as sources.
It's available in the first post.
I tested pan mod, and it seems correct?

edit-it's not actually the pan mod polarity that is maybe an issue.
The LFO's I have inherited on this project are kinda screwy,
the phase behaviour is weird.
If you want to switch speakers, use the step lfo for now maybe.
I will have a good look at the LFOs,
maybe I will keep them coz they have character,
or I can make them behave as expected/correctly

edit2- Sorry about potential CPU consumption, still looking at this schematic atm

edit3- I made the LFOs behave just normally, I dunno,
maybe I will go back and try and figure out what they did.
anyway-the S&Hs are messed up, they are causing so much cpu that it clicks-
will fix this and be back in a couple of hours

Hey again,
I fixed the radical amount of dsp that the free-running S&H mode was using.
hmm, a conversion was the problem, for now there is no free mode.
So now it is back to being light.
Cheers

K, I downloaded the latest version. Should have a collection of patches for you tomorrow.

<a title="Download your file from SendSpace" href="https://www.sendspace.com/file/tlij71" target="_blank">Download SuperTrance JB.txt from SendSpace</a>
I will give these presets here, did you watch my video nix?
I'm giving the one preset i made in the first version,
Supertrance JB.txt I think there should be a file extension for
presets like .fxp rather than .txt, flowstones default patch system
uses txt files but there is a way of making your own file extension for
the preset like Johan did with vaccin 1.0, I think this synth has potential
but I don't use the virus waveforms, I use the saw and square waves 2
and wave 3 where as sine is wave 1, I think the virus waveforms are ok,
but I don't think it's a bad thing to sample from synths, it's just what you do
with them I guess, there is a guy selling korg dw8000 wavetable waveforms
for 20 something dollars when korg doesn't allow you to sample their gear?
it's a shame, but I can't wait to see what you do next for the waveforms,
if you want I can contribute waveforms for you, I took some waveforms
this morning, they're single cycles and they're from various VSTi synths
from presets I programs with custom waveforms from the synths
waveshaping capabilities.

Hey there

,
So much thanks for all the time you have put into this mate,
I watched the vid and I know what you mean,
that unpleasant sound is caused by detuning and phasing-
I think it's just what it does, but I will play with the knob's de-zipper and see what that does.
I'll check my other synth to see how it sounds when changing pitch with unison on.
Thanks for the preset, I will add it-
first 3rd party preset in there is yours.

I'm sorry, I'll keep the preset system .txt,
Johan's .trj is still text,
if you rename the extension u can open it in notepad I'm pretty sure.

Without doubt I can make you a version whenever you like with whatever copyright cleared forms you would like. If you want to mark 16 or 32 jb in the main release that would be fine.

Cheers! I hope you enjoy the synth, I am committed to making it peachy.
*typo

edit- It turns out that the sample and hold was doing bad things to my binary full stop,
so I will write it again

Hey Nick,

Are these the same wavevorms that were in here in the first version? Personally I wouldn't feel comfortable using virus c waves. Thought those were discarded. If needed, I could make some waveforms and email them to you.

nix808 · Post by **nix808** » Mon Nov 17, 2014 10:34 pm

No mate, the virus forms are gone. Originally there were 128 forms, now there are only 64.
These are from an Angular Momentum example iirc.
I'm sure the copyright on these ones is fine.

edit- if you wish to make some forms, I would be happy to include them. My mail is available in the about at http://www.phonicsaudio.com

also- I have fixed the sample and hold, running pretty light and pop free now
my to do list is this-

route matrix-
multiple sources?
to route_matrix:-

[bipolar]

DESTINATIONS
oct
semi
fine
pitch
rm
noise pm
noise fm
noise vol
porta

implement skinning
decrease cpu
decrease prims
fx? delay(ping-pong,reverb mode),decimation
make waveforms
free noise
play it!

Um, I'm experiencing some sort of memory leak type phenomenon in FL Studio 11 with this plugin. The more I use it, the more intense it gets. But my old machine may have something to do with that so I'm not sure the synth is actually causing it...

Anyway, I was wondering if it would be possible to get an onboard arp? Relying on 3rd party specialised tools just for that adds to the overall CPU hit so I prefer to have onboard effects & arp

Oh, and I still think the knobs should be the same colour/texture as the wheels, heh

nix808 · Post by **nix808** » Tue Nov 18, 2014 2:25 am

OK man, thanks for the input,
I agree on the arp,
so I will integrate it into the step LFO.
I will make part of the knob plain black,
but will keep some dark cyan.

hmm-on the memory leak- will rebuild my Orion project and have a look what the RAM is doing.
It shouldn't really leak coz there is nothing being written.
Keep me posted on your issue-
I uploaded the current version, if you want to test it-
in the first post
edit-yes I agree there is some leak, looks like 25mb doesn't unload.
I'm going to stop working on this now,
and work on my guitar pitch to MIDI thingy maybe.
Will be back doing mods soon.

Ok, looking forward to the new mods - whenever you have the time

Keep up the good work
