I thought it was a word play on "cyanide" Smile

Vibe, eh? I see what you did there.

Right, so I've been trying to put together a sort of electro-symphonic sound: a combination of acoustic string sections with intentionally artificial sounding solo instruments like electric bass, a grand piano processed through an audio phaser, and synthesizers.  One that I've been playing with is this super fun minimoog emulator: http://bristol.sourceforge.net/mini.html

One of my favorite sounds so far involves setting two oscillators to produce sine waves at adjacent octaves (meaning one is double the frequency of the other), with a somewhat slow attack. Then just for fun I pipe it through the same audio phaser and reverb as my grand piano, and I get this lovely smooth as glass waahhh waaaaAAAhhh wwaahh sound. I'm still trying to figure out how to use the Low Frequency Oscillator to give it a nice vibrato.

So yes, as it turns out I'm the one with sine waves in my head. Now if I could ever get around to actually arranging something, I could post it on these forums instead of trying to describe it with words Blush
Michael Willis, if you're after an electro-symphonic sound, be sure to check out the Kaiyoti Bank for Synth1, if you haven't already. Here's a demo. It's pretty insane. Smile

Sorry for the off topic. Imitative Synthesis is the subforum best suited for talking electro-symphonics, so feel free to carry on there. Smile

Quote:It is hehe - you're right. That's the phoneticism part of it I talked about. ;^ J
It's got some phonetic similarity to my real name in there somewhere as well. But I can't give up my secret identity just like that - ya know?
So yeah I guess I'm kinda like Batman - except for being absurdly wealthy. And having unmatched fighting skills. I don't have a Batmobile either. Or a butler, or....

Hey it's like I always say: "Ain't nothin' to it but to do it!" ;^D
I like those ideas you're kicking around though - Hopefully we'll get to hear what you come up with... before our hearing goes out! (wink wink, nudge nudge)
