To me the factory presets are modernized Krautrock, the Phonemklatura stuff is great experimental weirdness, but I think there are lots of other things Phonem is great for. As a very powerful and expressive alternative to the currently trendy chooped vocals, for example.

Bring it on, let's hear some alternatives

Thank's for the update which happened in all Christmas silence, now we only need a fix for the tempo-synced LFOs, they just don't work reliably and are not tight in any way, especially when assigning them to phonem position in order to create tempo-synced vocal mayhem.

Phonem rocks!

The project save was implemented?

Yes, version 1.010 now automatically saves all assets embedded into the preset (if you choose to do so), and it prevents you from saving assets into various factory folders, so your stuff won't be scattered all over the place anymore because you have to select your user folder as a destination when saving an utterance or wavetable. It also makes a temporary copy of the activated Bank in your DAW project, so all presets and assets are in fact saved with each DAW project.

Two fresh Phonems in Guttural Meditation, tweaking the x/y-pads on the fly for some drastic overtone action in one of the patches:

hi simon, i would love to hear wolfgang's opinion on your new sounds. i'm quite sure that this is how he intended phonem to sound like

I don't know if he had a specific intention when creating Phonem

, he just included a lot of possibilities to create a plethora of different sounds with this synth, it still amazes me every day I work with it.

Didn't you write last time and then remembered, that you had a different e-mail address signed with the PPG account?

Strangely enough, in the latest release version tempo-synced LFOs only work when the host/DAW is running in play mode, there was a version before in which that issues was fixed, could we have that back please?

I find it quite remarkable what Phonem can do in the overtone domain, here the modulation wheel morphs the more conventional vocal sound into some ethereal texture and unfolds all these harmonics...
