inverse CPU-fan-speed to BPM.

It was an accident!

physical modeling synthesizer that creates physical models of pure sine waves the way nature intended…

A script that converts our Lua Tools into obfuscated Perl, to be used with the Songsmith API.

A function that clears everything you did in the past 30 minutes without saving.

I would actually love this, perl is my only language… :(

  1. An option to have individual notes and pattern commands in their own windows, randomised to different parts of the screen; thus escaping our collective cloistered views on the organisation of sounds into artistic compositions, maaaaannnn!

  2. One of those friendly little help cartoons (like the paperclip from old microsoft words) in the form of a new rave ponce looking on in unhelpful awe at how “like, smart you are to be into all that maths an’ stuff. Weeeooooowww that looks complicated meeeaaan!” or saying things like " Awesome beat man!" when you turn on the metronome.

Get rid of all those pesky hex commands in patterns. Keep the same numbers (so we don’t have to relearn them), but use binary instead.

A command to convert any sound into a dubstep wobble based on the original sample’s waveform characteristics, and posts the result to youtube

Output songs to punch cards

A resample button for the dubstep wobble maker

automatic youtube posting alone = worst idea ever +1

You can come close to this sound using the Reverb and set the dry mix of the Init preset to -INF dB, add some distortion for the crunch. :)
