Atlantis VSTi beta 0.9i

by admin on June 24th, 2008

AtlantisI have a signifigant Atlantis audio quality update for you today.

Hani didn’t like the clicking sound the routing engine was making in filters-per-voice mode.  So, I fixed it.  Now filters in filters-per-voice mode are always running, just like the global filter.  You may notice a slightly different decay sound- this is the filter running.  Before it would stop running when the envelope decayed, and any resonance would be cut (click) and continue on the next note (click).

This will consume more CPU power in polyphonic mode, so be sure to turn the number of voices down to the lowest useable level that you can get away with, or disable filters-per-voice mode entirely.  You can adjust these settings in the config dialog.

I also optimized the monophonic and arpeggio modes, so they will recieve a performance upgrade in this release.

Atlantis VSTi beta 0.9g

by admin on June 1st, 2008

Guess what? I’ve got a new build of Atlantis.  It’s got some new features, and maybe even some new bugs for you guys to find.

Here’s a list of what’s new:

The Repeatverb and Destroyverb are nasty little reverberation algorithms that are based on something I wrote for Jim Redfern to use in one of those demo competitions where you make your program crazy small.  Use them to add some wet depth and weirdness.

They do use a fair amount of CPU, so I suggest turning Filters-Per-Voice mode off in Atlantis if you are using it with the synthesizer.  I also suggest sticking a lowpass filter behind them.

The Pan module is something that Yann suggested and is everything you would expect from a serious panning algorithm.  It uses a sine-law, if you care.

Thanks to Rajko and Hani for reporting and testing the waveform save bugs.

Winamp File Deleter v2

by admin on March 10th, 2008

deleterNot sure why I never mentioned this here before.  Ages ago, I made the File Deleter v2 plugin for Winamp.  I still get emails from excited users on a regular basis.  Most requested feature: hotkeys.  I have not worked on this in years, but it’s great to hear from people that enjoy it.

Anti-denormal fixes

by admin on May 1st, 2007

atlantisI’ve spent a few hours replacing Atlantis‘ lax anti-denormal code for you poor poor intel users.   I’m about 1/3 of the way through the filter algorithms.  I’ve been optimizing them as I go so everything should be even easier on good cpus, too. 

I sent off a build to a poor poor intel user for testing, and if it goes well, I will carry on.

I also added a table of contents to the Atlantis manual the other day, and cleaned it up a little. 

Shandar won the Atlantis ePiano challenge, and as promised, will be rewarded with the respect of his peers.

MIDI-64 / FrankenSid

by admin on April 19th, 2007

MIDI-64My friends James and Jason Long are mad hardware hackers, in addition to being amazing musicians, twin brothers and great testers and critics of Atlantis.

Jason’s made some insane hardware over the years, including his own sampler, filters, and a talkbox for James.  One of his latest projects was to pull the SID chip out a commodore 64 and make a MIDI interface to it. 

James has a slightly more software approach- he built a MIDI interface for the c64, wrote drivers for it, and racked it.

You can read about some of their creations at:  http://sidchip.kicks-ass.net

The SID chip does kicks ass.

Psycle

by admin on April 18th, 2007

psycle

Before there was Atlantis, there was the FM lab.

I did some work on Psycle a few years back, under the humble handle ‘pooplog‘.  I made some unique machines to inspire myself and others to play with it.  It is still rolling and is still a great modular tracker.

Psycle is fun to play with, sounds amazing, and has lots of great native synths and effects, plus VST and ASIO support.

Check it out: http://psycle.pastnotecut.org

Or grab the source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/psycle
