Sounds from Tondo, Droneo, SrutiBox, synthicity Itself, Ellipsynth, Enumero and others!

iPhone App demos

Thanks to Audiobus, the awesomeness of Droneo's McAnalog2 patch is fed through Moog Filtatron and recorded  with two tracks in MultiTrack.

If you were thinking "synthicity itself is a nice program, where do you go from there?" the first answer is Ellipsynth, which is a lot like synthicity (large amounts of multitouch polyphony) extended to granular synthesis. You can record and paste audio into it as sonic source material. 

Ellipsynth taste #1

Here's a rapidly evolving drone burbling though Crystalline to add extra crystals.

Droneo's evo345  through Crystalline

Droneo 1.3 has a number of new timbres, including: more quickly changing evolving chants, a new consort that combines those evolving chants with organs, and a new class of evolver called counting timbres, which enumerate (cf: Enumero) through the reeds in various orders. There's more to come before it's released though. BTW, this example was recorded internally by Droneo itself.  

Droneo 1.3 demo features

Another demo from Droneo 1.3 : a counting mirror is aimed at a harmonium, playing these intervals (roughly) :
1/2, 2/3, 5/6, 15/16, 9/8, 5/4, 3/2, 2/1
I say roughly because  I set them by hand and turned the chorus on.

Counting Harmonium

New features in Droneo 1.4 include a more configurable evolving timbre: here, quickly changing triangles and their harmonics  are put together with slowly changing voice timbres.

Droneo 1.4.0 Example

Droneo 1.4 ... it works with AudioBus again.

Pharp 64 coursed

This is the kind of thing I set going all night long. This is the next version of Droneo A'Bussed into  Altispace   This Droneo needs some work still so it will run on my old iPhone 4.

Droneo harmonics of 2/3 1/1 3/2

Droneo 1.4 can randomly weave timbral changes into a continuous stream.  This is just four voices, blending harmonics from 16-32 of a C2 (130.8 or so Hz)Run through Droneo's native chorus and Vandelay. Sorry it's not in stereo!

Vandelic Yeah

More Droneo 1.3 sneak - peak upcoming audio . it goes through all 256 combinations of the eight "reeds", in gray code order. Thus, it sounds a little shifted compared with the usual binary order. Gray code is counting with the property that only one "bit" changes with each iteration. so instead of: 000,001,010,011 , where fro 001 to 010 two bits change, gray code counts: 000,001,011,010 so that exactly one bit changes each time. It's like counting fractally, I used to say in college back in the 17th century. There are 256! ways to count from 0 to 255, but these two are pretty interesting ways.

Long and excellent: Tondo audio

I had an idea to put a lock frequencies button in , and here it is , with the standard "omm" sound. if you have a scale selected, it will clamp to the scale, so here, in just diatonic, it's pretty melodic! I hope to get ellipsynth in the store  at some time in the next few months!

Ellipsynth is often preoccupied with transforming language into incoherence.

Thank you Ubuweb!

Transforming language into incoherence

Here is a little 1 minute Droneo - on - Droneo piece, trying to build up the density of the evolving mirrors. In B flat in case you like B flat.

I dropped an orchestra doing concert A for 42 seconds into Ellipsynth and ... mmmm!

Droneo 1.1 playing an analog consort drone via an evolving mirror patch. I actually left it running for about an hour - this is a little excerpt from it .
You can try it yourself on your own copy of Droneo by copying this and importing it!
