Re: "SunVox"

Oh hey, a fellow SunVox lover! Congrats on being the one to drag me out of my shell and get me to make my first post here. ^^

I'm listening to this right now. I like it! Some really interesting instruments in here, and I love the vibe, especially with that flute on module 5 - I'm super impressed by how real that sounds. My own tunes* have always been much more synthy.

And yes, it's true - SunVox is a superb tracker/modular synth, and I've actually been working on making some Ruby bindings for a game engine called DragonRuby. Nothing released yet, but I'm hoping to do so soon-ish. Whenever that is.

Well-emerged with the mutual emergence, and glad y'like the me-tune! Your you-tune, too, is a competent, compact composition, polite to the listening listener's listeners!

Also very cool when SunVox is fed to a game, lots of potential with that that ought to be thoroughly explored!

Yeah sunvox seems crazy. The ability to put your entire project into a synthesizer seems like it would hit the same spots as all the crazy modular synth stuff. It's always the recursive stuff, isn't it, that takes a piece of technology to a completely new level.

Indeed! For that matter, it's got a number of pattern commands for live modification of patterns during playback, alongside other features to facilitate generative/indeterminate music production! (e.g. the output destination randomization options offered by the MultiSynth) Haven't messed with such things very deeply personally, but have often wondered what might be accomplished if the correct brain caught a whiff of SunVox and took to SunVoxin' real hard down them avenues, hence fume-fanning in niche spaces.

— OBTAIN SAID COMPRESSED-TO-52-KB PROJECT FILE

SunVox — is a virtual modular synthesizer, with a tracker-style pattern grid for input sequencing, and a 2D grid for pattern arrangement. (So, patterns of different lengths with different numbers of tracks can play concurrently while having started at different times.) Connect modules within the pane on the right, adjust a selected module's parameters on the left, create/arrange patterns and edit their properties on the...
