Obviously many parameter assignments have been changed, especially filter resonance levels. So this is similar to the incompatibility from Iris 1 -> Iris 2.

But it doesn't affect all old patches, only some, I haven't found the culprit yet.

no polyAT any more ... thats a step backwards

and they have not taken the opportunity to include either MPE or Midi mono mode.

That's surprising. Luftrum was going on about how much improved the new spectral resynthesis is.

Wasn't he orgasming about the spectral morphing instead?

So it's still nice that Alchemy 1 works inside Logic too.
Booth Alchemys have their pro and contra

So.... now apple can buy the next one....

What is the difference between spectral morphing and spectral re-synthesis ?

Numanoid · Post by **Numanoid** » Wed Aug 26, 2015 12:58 pm

BTW, it is interesting that ZenPunkHippy should know so much about spectral synthesis back in 2013, probably got homework from Ben

Very happy for you all.
But very sad and sincerely angry.
I'm an Alchemy user on Win.
...and oh...
I was a Logic user on Win too..(with dongle and everything..)
That said

on Camel Audio and Emagic to have sold all to Apple and left us Win customers with nothing.
I guess spectral morphing will be an OSX privilege?

Not if you got Twist

Be warned though, it might say spectral morphing on the Twist tin, but it is not the best sounding synth I have heard...

The new DiscoDSP Vertigo has some morphing potential too.

What i really need is to morph between spectral data of sample i load.
There are options, some custom external in Max, afair VirSyn Cube and some spectral plugin that i don't remember now but was out pretty recently. Some months ago.

That's a pain, given that Alchemy was one of the synths that had a readymade setup for the Eigenharp.

Alchemy has been assimilated by OS

Alchemy available in logic now
