amSynth website coming along fine..

[briandc]

I created a very "moog" type patch for amSynth that might surprise...
You can hear it without effects at the bottom of this page: http://amsynth.com/amSynthDemos.html

Or you can hear it with chorus and delay added, here: http://amsynth.com/variousworks.html
(It's called "Double Muug.")

Let me know if you like it!

Bank 7 for amSynth is done!
I'd love to hear people's thoughts, critiques, which patches they like, or just comments in general.

Sineshaper is also now part of the "family," too...

The more coverage the better!

I'll have to read up on the Minicomputer page, since I haven't jumped into that one yet...

Brian,

Awesome job you've done so far with the site and ALL the patch banks you've created for AMSynth. I was going through them this weekend and discovered some sounds that really made me Also great names/descriptions for the patches -- easy to remember when I need to go back for more.

Thanks 5parkle5! I'm aware there are lots of repeats. Sometimes one sound may not inspire, but tweaking it just a bit changes things immensely.

If any of it inspires people to make good music, then I've accomplished something!

Great to see you're still going briandc! Will check these out later, thanks for your work man.

No problem. I'm going to be working on another synth called "Vex" for a while now. If all goes well I'll be putting it on the website in the near future..

Added Bank 14 for amSynth!

Enjoy!

Nice thanks !
I wonder how do you manage to still find variations and new sounds, but I am happy that you do

I once thought about the issue of probability and randomness in a synthesizer. How many sounds can one produce?
Well, let's consider:
7 oscillator settings (sine, saw, triangle, square, pulse, noise, s/h) --2 oscillators: 7*7 or 49 combinations. (In reality there are many more, as the triangle morphs to the saw and the square morphs to the pulse)

sync and ring capabilities: 4 combinations. 4*49 = 196.

Six filter possibilities: 6*196 = 1176

Then there are the filter envelope settings, detunings and the LFO effects and drive...

I don't know how many possibilities there are, but the random function helps a lot. Especially since we humans probably are "limited" by our own creativeness, and so randomness helps us to find new possibilities. Any synth without a random function is limited by human creativeness!

Using multiple instances together should be very promising, too!
