Tip: SoundForum Synth for Source Waves
2002-07-20 by Sascha Franck
Thanks to Darrel / DNA Studios who reminded me of that one: http://www.keyboardonline.com/article/mainv/0,7220,32363,00.html This is a free synth based on N.I.'s Reaktor / Dynamo engine and it's a great source for waveforms. Doesn't run as a VSTi but if you have some options to reroute things to your inputs you can easily record the sounds into some Waveeditor or so (fortunately my soundcards allows internal rerouting so there's no loss through any mixer or so). http://www.saschafranck.de/exs/SF_ForumPadTest.zip is a very simple pad I made after fooling around with it for 5 minutes or so. IMO it doesn't sound too bad. Will eventually do a keyboard mapped version later on (this one uses one single sample and therefor quite a bit of CPU). Regards, Sascha
