NAS

SDIY has taken over my life so I wouldn't be surprised at all. It's surprising to me what we can achieve at home, without a machine shop. I simply misunderstood the nature of the project. I read something about Chinese CMs and jumped to conclusions.

It's much like ACE without patch cords, yes. It's basic structure differs from ACE by having only 1 filter.

However, the main difference is that one Tyrell oscillator will mimic the bahaviour of a popular analogue DCO circuit in great detail, while the second oscillator mimics the bahaviour of a VCO from another popular analogue synthesizer. Great attention to detail was given to the envelopes too, which is IMHO a completely underrated and often neglected factor.

The filter is a whole different story. The proposed SEM-style filter is a bit underwhelming to me, so I'm moving towards a free interpretation with a bit more bite.

Urs, I had been hoping you'd do something like this for a long time. I'm much more into small performer synths with fixed routings than modular synths. I think that's why I never clicked with ACE even though I loved the sound of it when demoing. Trell sounds like it's just what I've been waiting for. I await the public beta anxiously.

BTW, you sure you want to give it away?

Urs, when I read Tyrell is a little bit sounding like Ace, I was like "I won't buy Ace now...not gonna need it"
But I just bought it.
I like it, the price is really fair and you deserve support

So now you need to do your part and release Tyrell Beta .g.

Checking amazona almost everyday for Tyrell, since Urs said something about before Christmass!

I guess this is gonna' be one the best free softsynths ever! ... if it matches Ace in quality.

Cheers for Mr. Urs Heckmann!

I'm working my ass off, but it's getting really, really tight - I also have to update my 64-bit betas and move stuff over to the new office...

If not before x-mas then shortly thereafter

Your work and time is highly appreciated. Don't forget to take a rest and have a beer (or 2) and enjoy life. Seeing something like that developed by one of the best developers on this planet makes me jump inside

I'm not drinking much beer anymore due to some wheat intolerance thing. But I sussed out Mai Tais (must post my latest recipe in the other thread once...)... wife and I are sharing our second one *burp*

Some really bad memories coming up... from this weird night at Oranienburger Straße, where you thought you really want to have that 2nd Mai Tai...

I saw Jesus that night!
