Chris Roberson wrote:anyone try my mini-vyn yet? ;)

I did :)

Atm i have a small monitor and your synth barely fits on it hehe,.
I like the color changing :)
Didn't really listen to many presets as i was checking all other entries.
Sounded ok tho.

Cya,
Rob.

We're gonna try to slim Grizzly down some more both gui-wise and loadtime/cpu-wise. The deadline kinda snuck up too fast on us so we weren't able to tweak it as much as we wanted. But I guess that goes for most of the devs.

I'm thinking about making a Grizzly-Mini though, perhaps that'd be appreciated? Just cutting it down in features and size to make a small optimized drumsampler.

----I was kind of thinking that at first too, but mostly it's the layout/GUI smiliarity a bit, it doesn't sound hardly at all that much like Zebra really, and Urs explained how it is very different internally.
----I wouldn't call using some previous ideas or GUI elements "cheating" by any means. But as a side note, perhaps next year there can be 2 main categories, to separate payware devs from freeware devs, if people think that needs to be done in the name of "fairness".
----I don't have much of an opinion on it either way, I am just a spectator, and i think it's great that so many people got involved, and hopefully they all found it to be a worthwhile endeavor :) Congrats to Tuz for organizing it (and Ben and everyone else behind-the-scenes) and congrats to all the devs who got their plug-ins finished in time to enter, it's almost a historical cyber-event in a way, first of it's kind is it not ?

That's a great idea. Anyway this is an amazing drum sampler, thought a little cpu hungry, def one of my favorites :tu:

as long as i can keep the full version..... i enjoyed doing the presets for this alot and despite being a die hard battery user this will get some significant use.

...I'm thinking about making a Grizzly-Mini though...
If the development resources available were unlimited, +1 for both ;) Sometimes you only need to trigger a few hits efficiently, sometimes you want ALL the bells and whistles... in any case, grizzly is working a (slow) treat for me on eXT as it is now, so I'm not complaining 8) One of my faves so far, thank you!
The mind boggles.

Thanks for the kind words! We'll see what we can do. Right now it actually always loads 160 effects each time you open the plugin. However they're all bypassed and sent to sleep when they're not in use. But the amount of modules and connections is what's causing the load times so any improvement to any of the effects should add up to make it quicker to load. I've got some ideas on what to try so the next version should be a bit snappier.

for those that had probs: BuzzRizer works only at 44khz samplerate - in all the hassle i forgot to put a warning about that

is awesome

a beautiful and inspired work of audio and visual art

I just evolved a load of randomly generated but unnaturally selected presets if anyone wants them.
*blush*

I'd like to hear your presets at least .. :)
Peace & love,

Thanks.. i was even surprised by how versatile it ended up being. That cascade filter feedback design came to me in a dream! (after banging my head against the chalkboard for a few days)

So many good things to try. I don't know if a couple of weeks will be enough to make myself an opinion. Many, many thanks to everybody involved in this challenge. :hail:

I just regret that some entries use an installer rather than a zipped DLL (the latter being much more handy IMHO). :oops:

So far my favorites are balthor grand, choralozoide, cubix, eq22, fire, lunchbox, and pushtec. Some did not load for me. Thanks to everyone who entered in this competition and thanks to tuz for starting this.

Post

yeah.. a zipped DLL has been the overwhelming method of choice for all Tweakbench fans :D
I tried moving to installers once.. way back in the day.. and everyone hated it.

unless you need to do any special tricks during install (registry or whatnot) i'd advise everyone to skip them.. unless it's a retail package.. then people almost expect it.

Post

My faves so far: Grizzly, Cubix (a little cpu hungry but amazing!), Superubbish & Ritual.
btw does anybody knows how to make uLoop to work? it looks intersting...
