waveforms for straightliner

[shokkaboy]

hey everyone,

i started working with this little supertoy and now i want to create and share some patches.

the problem is: at the moment i'm working with a licensed waveform libary a bought for the absynth. and as i know, i can't give away these waveform.

so does anybody know a place for free Singlecycle WF's a can give me a hint how to create some.

thanks

yes this is a good point. if you (general you) want to share patches containing waveforms, make sure to not violate any copyrights. a little search revealed this:

http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/packsViewS ... hp?id=2339

which are released under this very liberal licencse:

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/sampling+/1.0/

i guess, there are some other samples around with similar liberal licenses or no license at all. other than that, it might be interesting to obtain waveforms by cutting out cycles from recordings of acoustic instruments (or analog synths, obviously) - or whatever audio material. but... i'm not quite sure, what the law says, when this recording itself was part of some copyrighted sample library. to be safe, let's avoid this until we know better.

the waveforms should be put into some subdirectory of the 'samples' folder which comes with the plugin. i recommend to create a folder with your name or artist pseudonym there. the presets will store only the relative path with respect to the plugin .dll file.

Hello, here are 12 tables. My work, copyleft!! use wherever, without worry.

I checked them in Rapture, where they work....

2 quick points...

A) I am on os x, so I have not checked them in Robin's synth.

B) Designing wavetables is difficult they might alias. I really have been practicing making em for a while, but still, drawing a nice set of partials that is unique and cool, is totally difficult.

Here now, but Robin might want to re-host em on his site

If the samples are to big or do not work, lemme know

Cheers

they work fine!

@shokkaboy: as your KVR-account is fresh, your links are still disabled, so i repeat them here:

as for the galbanum-demo: even though this demo is freely available, it is still part of a commercial package, so i would think that re-distribution is not allowed.

thanks for sharing. yes, work fine. just tried them out. as for re-hosting: ultimately yes - i'm thinking about including a 'Sounds' section on my website someday. but for the time being, i think it is fine to have them here on the forum using free upload services.

well i'm working on that

here are 23 selfmade SingleCycle Waves

Robin, this looks like a great synth And I for one love the well laid out math look to your plugs. Nice job indeed. I have about 500 single cycle waves I'v just completed, so I'll scan through them all and see about putting together a little pack of waves for you guys to use.

i see. 2 posts left. i copied your link into the list above. cool waves among them. thanks. are those pulse waves (shokkwave_006, _010, _011) recordings of real analogs?

math rocks!

wow! thanks in advance!

i recorded some notes from freeware synthies i like and played around with your function shaper and some distortion plugs.

aha, yes - there is a multitude of ways to generate waveforms.

I use math functions to generate waveforms quite a bit, as well as sample analog hardware synths I have laying around the studio. EZ Editor from Image Line does a great job of capturing single cycle waves.

if you are looking to generate single-cycle waves, wavosaur (www.wavosaur.com) can do simple function generation, with mixing (or multiplying) of subsequent functions onto the existing wave.
best of all, its free!
