XT wavetables?

Damn - I've got to get Zeb when I've got the money.
Can't wait to team it up with my other progs.

Couple questions

How's transmission? Anyone putting it to heavy use yet?

Urs - how did you make these osc effects? Are they parametric equations?

How long until we see a strange attractor osc? Or something even more bizarre.

Any plans to make a sequencer?

Sorry for all of the questions. Got a couple thousand more, but I think this is good for my first post.

I love transmission, I use the oscillator & mseg presets mostly, and some of the synth "starting points" It's really worth it, the presets are very nice too. So I'd say I'm putting it to heavy use, I have the old school bank as well, which is nice patches, but transmission just goes all out with everything.

In fact they are pretty simple functions written in C... but that's obvious I guess...

I think most of them can be written as equations, but it's easier to give an example of a callback function of an OscFX:

Code: Select all

void fxProc_Fundamental( float* imag, float* real, int overtones, float depth, float* impulseResponse, float scale, circuitModule* cm )
{
	real[ 1 ] = 0.f;
	imag[ 1 ] = -depth * 2000.f;
}

The Fundamental OscFX is naturally pretty simple. It just replaces the fundamental frequency of the oscillator spectrum by a value. For some weird reason (dunno) the spectrum must be phase inverted for a saw to be ramp down. That's why the value is negative.

However, while the fx themselves are pretty simple, the surrounding code that provides for having them is not

Wow, I go to eat some greek food with a pretty chinese girl, I come back and the developer himself has answered. WTF!!!
He even lifts his skirt, and shows some code. With my next paycheck, I'm going to buy Zeb. I should've bought it back at version 1. Didn't know if you were going to be one of these guys that releases a program and subsequently disappears(crickets). Happened one too many times. I owe you Urs. Big time! There was a time when I couldn't afford any of this stuff. Someone gave me a mac G3, and I got a lot of mileage out of your free plugs, Virsyn minitera, and Crystal. Without these free apps, my music making would have been delayed by over two years. For years before that I dreamed of owning a computer, and a synthesizer. I just read magazines, and books - programming sequencers, and synths only in my imagination. I can never repay you for these gifts.

Thank you!!!

'kay, it's all done. I've got 300 ppg/mw waves and 94 prophet vs waves in z2 osc format. I spent the evening doing some direct comparisons with the originals and I think those of you who care about such things are going to be happy.

As soon as I find a place to host them, I'll post the location.

Send them over -> urs at u-he dot com

Done. I'd recommend to anyone who gets these that they route them into the input of an fm oscillator. Mayhem ensues...

Thanx, your OSC work it's very appreciated!!!

EDIT:

Live 6.0.7 Osx crash when i try to load (by clicking over the osc preset selection menu) one of these OSCs.
I've placed them together with the other OSC presets under the Application Support/u-he/Zebra2/Modules/Oscillator .
I've tried to place them in both places (one per time), hd/library/Appl...etc and user/library/Appl....but the same crash happens.
Both AU and VST versions of Zebra2.1 are "affected".
Doh, all under osx 10.4.10 .

EDIT 2:

Crashes also NI Kore 1.2.1

super thx

I'm a complete sucker for wavetables

I can already hear Komplexer yelling from a part of my hard disk, poor thing!

I'm looking forward to using them, but unfortunately they're not currently working for me either (Zebra22b5 Windows in Mackie Tracktion2). When I try to select one of these waves on the oscillator pop-up list, it won't select the wave and the very attempt to select it makes Tracktion unstable - other plugins like Waves start coming up "blank face" and if I try to remove the Zebra plugin from the track, it brings Tracktion down altogether.
