Recently I started noticing how a lot of music related software is coming out with extremely similar names, specially VST/VSTis. Since there is new software being created every day, it makes it difficult to know what plug-in does what, except for when the name includes a hint of what the actual plu-in is (Ex. Altiverb, BFlanger, Etc). I have a list of about 200 different plug ins, mostly freeware, and every few months I have to go back to the list and refresh my memory and what is what.

Thanks for listening

I just had to get that out, now I feel 10 pounds lighter and with a lot less stress.

I was going to write a VSTi and call it "ecki-ecki-ecki-ecki-P'TANG!-zoot-boing" but some buncha clowns called Monty Python got the name first. Or so they claim. >:-S

So I'll call it "Shrubbery" instead.

This is one of the reasons we choosed such a beautyful name for our company: wwaym

Yeah, yeah, Steve1 (the additive sampler), Steve2 (subtractive), Steve3 (wavetable), Steve4 (quasi-something polyphonic fuckup), Steve5, Steve6...

I have a soft spot for the old Buzz synth "RectalAnarchy". Now there's a name.

Named after a Merzbow collab with Gore Beyond Necropsy, if I'm not mistaken.

I think you'll find that you are.
It was in fact named after Doris Day's first album...

I'm still trying to figure out what OnePingOnly does.

It pings. Once only.

New idea: the Namegiver-VST. Plugs in your favourite host to randomly rename your VSTs and VSTis with new names!

Would make for some interesting music, wouldn't it?

i think the "nni" vsti would be great also , because calling it 'ni' only could cause some problems ...

Sounds like Faulty logic to me, Basil Faulty to be exact!

So I'll call it "Shrubbery" instead.

That's ok, just don't call it Bush!

Are we running out of names?
