Atlantis

time pilotRich Orth is the new Time Pilot champion.  He got 531500 while drunk a week ago.  I have not been able to get my crown back yet, but I will.  Just you wait, Rich.

I haven’t got any more donations in a while, so I sponsored a new build of Atlantis myself.  It’s serious sunset season at my beach, so I bought a cheap radical flyer to throw around with my friends.  On top of that, I have joined a fierce bicycle gang.  Summer rules.

Here’s what you get in Atlantis 0.9o:

You can download it here. Enjoy!

    Enjoying the synth.
    The “random” buttons are extremely handy :)

    It would be great if there was an option to randomize just the waveforms. Or will it make the interface cluttered if there would be rnd for every single parameter…?

    Also I was missing flac support, when I found lots of single cycle waveforms from Straightliner synth webpage:

    Hi!

    Is there a limit to how many wav. files can be in the “chips”?

    Right now I can’t seem to make Atlantis recognize beyond 3 folders, also can’t get rid of removed “chips” to get Atlantis recognize the new ones.

    Hey Kaspar-

    Flac support will go on the todo list.

    There is definitely a limit to the number of wav files- right now it is around 200. I can easily bump that up to a larger number, but since the synth loads the entire waveform database into ram, it will start getting expensive.

    Basically, I need to rework the waveform caching method to be friendly with larger collections of sounds. I’ve never personally needed more than 20 or so waveforms since I can pretty much make whatever sound I want by morphing and warping those.

    That is the next big thing on my todo list now that PNG support is in.

    Oh yeah-

    To get rid of old sounds, delete the Atlantis.wfd file in your Atlantis folder. That’s the waveform database, and it will automatically regenerate next time you fire up Atlantis. It will take a while to crunch through all your wave files as it generates Antialiased MIPs in each octave for each of the waveforms in your chips folder…

    Thanks for the explanations.

    If the wav-s are all loaded into RAM, then I can certainly live with 200 waveforms.
    I just downloaded a big collection of waveforms, so there were thousands :) to scan through if something would be of interest.

    As with the flac support, I actually managed to batchconvert them quite easily in foobar2000.

    Thanks.
