Psychic Modulation Releases Phonec (Updated v1.4)

[jensa]

@jack: Four more requests.

1. I would love to have the mixer parameters (Osc1, Osc2, Sub, Noise, Gain) as targets from the LFOs. It would really fit the movements of this synth when used with an arepggio/sequence.

2. Would it be easy for you to send out what the arpeggiator and sequencer are playing as MIDI for easy chaining to other synths?

3. A Phase knob for each LFO to get some even more far out sounds.

4. Previous/next buttons for more easily changing patches?

Thanks.

I took the challenge! I had about 20 minutes to spare until I had to go to bed (right now actually) so I used the demo version to throw this together really quick:

DISCLAIMER: Obviously this is not an official demo, just something thrown together in less than 30 minutes. So don't let it put you off buying the instrument if you don't like it- the instrument is great!

[edit] Oh yeah, the only effects are some overdrive on the drums (FPC from FL Studio) and some delay on a synth line. Everything else is phonec! Also, in a later version of this post I removed the drop-outs version since i got the full version of the synth
!

I've tried to buy it but it is not available for purchase

It's definitely available, not sure why you had trouble. Maybe a link was down? Try it again, if you still have problems let me know.

@jack: It seems not to be sensitive to the pitch wheel, am I correct?

Sorry, I must have overlooked this. Will fix in the next available update.

Good idea! Will add to my To-Do List

2. Would it be easy for you to send out what the arpeggiator and sequencer are playing as MIDI for easy chaining to other synths?

It's possible I think, but might not be something I would think necessary to incorporate. I'm open to feature requests, but am also trying to keep it from getting bogged down with features that might not get used very often. But I'll look into it.

3. A Phase knob for each LFO to get some even more far out sounds.

That I can do.

4. Previous/next buttons for more easily changing patches?

I wanted to do this but didn't get around to it. Will be available in next update.

@jack: Nice! Thanks for the positive answers. I'll buy it now which means NOW!

Btw, don't know what you think but I would love a mix knob on the Echoshifter to get a completely wet signal.

Are there any sound demos?

This is one I made during the beta stage:

I plan on making some more soon.

Sorry about the drop-outs, I still haven't received the full version!

Sounds great! Definitely update this with the full version.

Sorry you had to wait so long for the download, I was stuck at work all day.

That would be strange, but I kind of like the idea
I'll have to see if it does anything for the sound.

I just checked my Soundtoys Echoboy and it got a mix knob where I can get a completely wet signal. Fabfilters Timeless 2 got a dry and a wet knob.

I guess you maybe could change the Level knob for the Echoshifter to be 50/50 at 12 o'clock...... Or maybe not, that would change all new and old presets I guess. Hmmm. You'll figure something out.

Not at all - it'll be an honor!

I bought it without listening to demos. What does that say about me?

That you will make them?

Surely, he is a prophet!

This is sweet!! Boards of Canada eat your heart out!!

Just tried the demo... this is a really nice synth, a very cool, dusty vibe, and loads of character. It's almost like a one-stop-BOC-shop!

Ordered straight away, waiting patiently for delivery.
