I'm trying to be strong and honor my resolution not to play with Apo until after the first of the year (I have a project I'd set a deadline to finish by the end of the year, and it won't happen if I keep playing with Apo.)
I've downloaded this and tucked it into a "2009" folder and am very much looking forward to exploring. I may even finish my project early with this as an incentive.
Yes, be strong, it's disheartening to look back at several incomplete projects at the end of a year!
Still, I'll look forward to what you make of Synth next year. It isn't the easiest thing to use, and I never quite finished making anything much with it myself so far (talking of incomplete projects!)
The shape from Falling Stars sounds like . . . a modem tone! In fact both the ones I tried it with did. I think I know why that is, and what sort of things you could do to make it more musical. Any pure waveform played straight sounds a bit dead anyhow, what makes a sound interesting is how it changes over time. If I get anything resembling music out of Synth, then I'll post it in an animation or something
Always been fascinated with making fractals sing [link] My old Casio died a few years back. I'm inspired to go find another (small, simple, lo-end) that will do this job, along same lines as Casio - any suggestions?
I'm a hermit living in remote mountain isolation & only venture forth from my eyrie about every 2 weeks, plus I'm partially lame (trawling shops is out for me), so your tips on this would really help me go straight to ground zero.
Nowadays for composers, it's all software virtual synths. Of course if you want to input tunes and you play keyboard you'll still need one of those (I play(ed) guitar).

Absolutely...wow...brilliant (AFB) link...I'll be busy I can see...what ARE you doing to me!
BTW I'm doing screenshots of those flames & creating low rez jpgs of them for quick ref - want me to post them to link to that flamepack when I'm thru? As a small thankyou. (or not, as you will).

Thanks very much for sharing.

This will save me daze & daze of daze
