Just a quick note to say that I have officially released my OP-8 synthesizer.

I have a demo-version available from my site + a few short MP3s to show the sound quality of the synth. The MP3s are simply me playing a few of the OP-8's presets... I wanted you to hear exactly what comes out of the synth, without burying it under a pile of effects.

I have made over 200 presets that are musical and useful, I hope you will find some inspiration in them... there are some "classics" in there.

Thanks for your continued support and here's to the rebirth of this great platform!

PS: I have also updated the demos of my other synths, fixing a couple small bugs.

something just occured to me -- be sure to add some polyphony when trying out the presets that have "stack" in the name, to get the proper sound... makes a huge difference for these patches. also, certain patches are labelled "mono" and should be triggered monophonically.

On a side note, before having your synths I wasn't using aftertouch that much especially in modular patches.
Now I'am hooked at this too obvious form of modulation ! :razz:

Beware though because active modwheeling / aftertouching / pitchbending on your synths may bring the neighbours to call either the police or the nearest asylum ... :lol:

it is such a natural control for me (the pressure-sensitivity seems to allow for much greater emotional expression) and you can have it routed to various destinations at one time allowing you to really transform a sound quite radically.

It was pointed out to me that the links to the new 'europa' and 'sparC' demo files that I had put on my website weren't leading anywhere! I have fixed the glitch... in case you were trying to check them out... maybe?... possibly?... not really?... please? :grin:

thanks, i'm working on some more musical audio demos, as the ones i have currently up on the site are pretty basic.

i've been working with the synth in my own music quite a bit since finishing it and the filter's cutoff is pretty addictive (IMHO :lol: )! when i tweak other synths now i keep expecting the filter to continue from the lowpass into the highpass.
