Some granular sample osc's would be cool.

Biggest issues (feature requests) from my "boss" here are:

1) bigger GUI option
2) program change
3) proper library functions (delete, move etc.)
4) non-sychronizing LFOs (NEED this yesterday!)

I'm sending Jayney's CD first :-p

But yeah... working on it... "boss" has mentioned these things to me too

How are things though? Must be a bit strange working on the "project" after recent incidents... hope this doesn't take away the fun aspects of the thing...

Nope - makes no difference.

Jeez, guys -- cryptic much?

My Guess:
Howard had a sneak peak on the forthcoming Modular, and now it's no more fun for him twiddleing the Zebra

I was thinking world domination. Could Howard and Urs be the villians in the next Bond picture?

The user could import a sample to use as a granular oscillator, and then the ten wavetables for that oscillator could each have there own loop position within the sample, allowing morphing between positions. My god that would be excellent!

I don't know what else this synth could use, it's great. But user-loadable sample osc's for the wavetable would be brilliant!

Yes please. Granularity would be an absolute shoe-in for Zebra

personally I think granular synthesis is overhyped... <- this is an opinion!!!

A bigger GUI option would be real nice for me.

I'd like to see the border between synthesis elements (OSC, FMO, shaper etc.) and effects elements (reverb, delay, chorus etc.) vanish.
So one could have e.g. a reverb available in the same way that a comb filter is available.
Or maybe even the distinction between synthesis and effects would be totally removed.

Is this possible?

Yes. One of the next revisions (2.5?) will add a dedicated monophonic version that has only one Grid for everything - and audio input.

Great!
That makes Zebra2 get even better...

Mighty Pea · Post by **Mighty Pea** » Mon Jan 28, 2008 2:52 pm

Audio input? Thanks! That tackles one of my requests which I'd filed under 'not so likely to happen'.

so dose this mean that Z2 is abandon ware?

Z2.5 sounds interesting

Improvements!
