Yes, it doesn't sound *exactly* the same, but it comes fairly close. :tu:

I'm wondering what do you have in mind so we could use this baby of yours to make music. I mean, how do we use it with Reaper, Cubase etc. ?

In contrast to the predecessor Audio-Term II is an instrument, not a 'passive' sound editor for other synths. Although it's planned to run standalone on a special computer it will also be possible to load the realtime engine as VSTi. This is how I recorded the examples.

Whoa! As a standalone and a VSTi? Excellent! :tu:

Can't wait! :hyper:

Cool! 8)

Your first example (from about :50 to 2:00) makes me think: PPG-style reinterpretation of a segment in the movie '2001: A Space Odyssey' called: 'Atmospheres'

Under certain circumstances - very useful for soundtrack work.

There's still much work to do, I spent the last weeks optimizing the FIR Decimator and fine-tuning the osc and envelope code. And it's still 32 bit (developed on a Pentium D :D ... I think I have to buy a newer computer / OS for building a 64bit version).

If you'd like a bit of an advice from a veteran PC assembling guy, for audio especially, Intel's Ivy Bridge i7-37xxK based PC can be found for a reasonable amount of money these days and you'll be more than satisfied and covered with that. I also really like to use AMD Phenom II 965 and FX8350 processors for my builds since they don't include any graphics and have native PCI [as older Intel chipsets do like X58], and combine them with some cheapish passively cooled Nvidia VGAs like GT630, GT730 or GT740. You really don't have to spend a fortune these days to have a really good computer for audio. :tu: You can get one of these for a few hundred $ these days. Great value for money. :party:

Why native PCI is important? There are still some great PCI audio cards to be found for reasonable money 2nd hand... [RME, Lynx]. Still top of the line cards.

Cheers! :D

Is version 2 out?

I just was messing and looked at the envelope part of the editor. After you load a wave and analyze and then apply there is the env<> part where you can smooth the envelopes of a partial. They make the total sound a bit smoother and less like it has gone through a ring modulator.
I wonder is there is a smooth all partials or is it just 1 by 1 partial envelope smoothing?

The BLUR command on the TEF<> page does the same for all partials. Further it optimzes the partial amplitudes after processing.

The ringmod - like sound of the analyzer is a result of the fixed slot size of a wavetable. This is also the reason why single notes with stable pitch and harmonic content work best. Here a resynthesized FM sound ("Liquid Stack"), played with Terratec Komplexer:

http://dl.dropbox.com/s/6izxvlmz1ud3tpg ... plexer.mp3

The sound to be analyzed should have it's fundamental pitch at 172.265625 Hz. You can tune the analyzer using the screen keyboard and the +/- 5_CENT buttons if the file doesn't fit the pitch requirement exactly.

Audio-Term II is still under construction and this will take at least 12 months from now. This also depends on the legal situation, which has to be cleared before I make anything available to the public.

Btw, the AT II sound examples are also available on soundcloud now:

Old thread, I know, but just wanted to tell the dev, this program has been incredibly useful to me lately and is an excellent example of solid, useful independent coding. Thanks!!

hi, this is a long shot - check in the trash can the programme creates - can't quite remember what it's called but if it doesn't like a file then it moves it to some error folder / trash can.

Damaged files (or files which don't fit the specification mentioned in the *.pdf) are moved to the recycle bin (RECBIN).

Another short sound example from AT II. This was recorded while testing some of the realtime controllers:
