Dawesome MYTH

[El°HYM]

Of course, as soon as I've returned from a current concert tour I'll demo Myth a second time and maybe even join the cult, if there is still one

Thats cool!

Which Kult; let me buy a Patchpool preset pack for Myth now.

But for real, looking forward what you will have to say.

We all know that Peter knows how to code decent resynthesis algorithms and with the tons of the samples I've produced over the last decades the new Myth is bound to be fun!

At the end of the day it all boils down to sound (and GUI) aesthetics, some folks will like the krrsssfrmmppshhhhzzroarrshttzz delivered predominantly by the Iris oscillators (no matter what you feed them with), others will think -> WTF is this supposed to be, give me a sine wave instead. I for now have failed to join the MYTH cult and will move on.

So will you give Myth a second chance, Simon.

I'd say that given your last criticism was about the fizziness of the resynthesis you'll be pleasantly surprised.

It's much more akin to Novum now.

it's a whole lot of fun

How would this compare to resynthesis in Synplant 2 or Icarus 3?

Don't know anything about Icarus 3 other than its resynthesis is said to be among the best in the business.

Synplant is quite different to most resynthesis in that it uses a relatively simple synthesiser (two oscillators, FM, reverb and modulators to reconstruct a sound. The Genopatch in synplant attempts to approximate the input sample using the synth.

The advantage to this is that it's easier to paramaterise. The disadvantage to it is that it can be limited particularly with less steady state sounds like drum loops.

Many other resynthesis based synths use additive synthesis (phase vocoding) or matrix factorisation. (I suspect myth may be the latter).

These methods allow a much greater degree of accuracy in resynthesis but at the expense of complexity. In the case of true additive you end up with a huge amount of partials which can be difficult to manipulate.

Madrona Labs' Sumu is a good example of fully additive synthesis and has some clever ways of dealing with the amount of data.

Myth, if I'm right, is more like Anemond's factor synth which, instead of using discrete sinusoidal partials, resynthesises using spectral bands with a complex amplitude envelope associated with each band. This is similar to the kind of tech you see in stem separation where different components of the sound are deconstructed into spectral components along with their temporal counterparts.

Thank you for your detailed, in depth reply !

Will be available in your download - area, in a few.

Is there a download link anywhere? It's not in my downloads or tracktion download manager for me yet.

[enCiphered]

Yeah, thats strange. The version number after the update is 1.16

[killmaster]

hmmm. having trouble locating the update too.

[WasteLand]

hmmm. having trouble locating the update too.

Tracktion is VS, i guess it is about 3 or 4 hours, when they are early.... if i am right.....
so about 3 or 4 hours in the future, at this moment....


(or go to discord Dawesome Village, and download it there!)

Thanks @WasteLand!

I downloaded from discord. It still showed as version 1.16 in my plugin list, but 1.51 when I actually opened the plugin.

Tracktion Download Manager (1.5.3) is giving me 1.16, showing up as 1.16; no resynthesis 2.0.
