yes, it's the biggest bug in my setup
for the interface, it have been done mixing different "skins" kit into one, so the congrat' don't really have to go to me. The final release will have a 100% personal UI, I hope I will find the time to do that (but things that not produce sound get "low priority" statement!
for the while I'm working on the preset librairy and some other improvement in the FM routing..
see you in some dayz ...

3 Osc.'s w/ the FM road looks real sweet. C++ ?

No, just based on the basic stuff of SynthEdit (probably done in C or C++), you will have to wait some more years before i'm abble myself to prog an original Oscillator in C or C++!!...
Btw: I've made the same synth in modular (without FM) and it sound far greater (but only two voice of poly on a Luna)...I will post the patch here one time I'll do the needed improvment...

quote from myself:
It sound a bit crappy (done with synth edit)
yes it's really boring to spend so much time on a project then to ear how it sound harsh...
I'm near to finish the 4* 3 Oscs version, and even with 12 osc, it always hard to make it sounding fat!! but it's funny to mix the Osc algo with the joystick to make travelling pads...

Hi,
I've updated the beta.
Removed the multimode filter (will be re-added soon)
only one LFO now (for debugging process

) but work better with an add. S&H function that sound great.
added a "link" function to allow to setup the two left/right EG by a simple knob move...use the left EG when link on.
http://www.soundandbreakfast.org/divers ... mX_0_5.dll
Btw: Yes I would be abble to do that in Scope SDK, but for the while I own just one Pulsar2 and two Luna, no 15DSP board

...
I'm tryin to finish the same patching in the Modular3...it sound already far better!!!

updated: now UltimAtom-X get nice wood side, so let say it sound more Analog
it's a joke, but the V1.2 will come with a nice feature: a VCO drift : I will add a realy slow LFO with its rate slowly modulated by another LFO, which will modulate in a really fine amount the "fine pitch" of the 3 oscs separatly...so Ultimatum-X VCOs will drift as know from true analog one !
And I will add a switch to bypass the realy bad sounding filter, so you can use better one in serie after the synth...Filter are too important...

Updated:
- FM sound better
- added two EG for the FM (it's now possible to do great moving FM pad)
- some preset.
Between: it sound far better at 96Khz...

well, just send the simple version through the STW CD100 (chorus-delay that comes with the P100 plate) and save the time for better things...
cheers, Tom

yes, my next project will be with the modular...I think I've already reached the limitations of Synth Edit...

When I download the link I get a dll only 1 Kb in size.
When I copy the link to my browser I get a 404 not found error.
Please fix it so I can finally try your synth
Thank you

Hi,
I've created a little web page for the synth:
http://soundandbreakfast.org/diy/vst_pluggin.html
you will find it in 3 version: 8, 6 and 3 voice polyphonic, so it's possible to test it even with little PC...
All link tested, but maybe it's better to use the "update" function of your browser (I will try to make an auto-update for the whole site one of this day -if someone have some hint for the html code to add...I'm a bit megalomaniac, but sometime I see that my knowledge have some limits

....

8 voice version only puts out 6.
Sounds great even after 15 minutes of turning knobs
