I'm sure they looked fine in 2006 on a 1024x768 ibook but these days not so much and I'd hate to see what they look like on a retina screen

otoh they've ported a few of their synths to the retina ipad and they look loving gorgeous but they haven ported the interfaces back to the mac yet

a modular synthesizer

probably uses parts from differing manufacturers but mostly polyfusion

by allowing that thing to exist inside the space of a laptop and while purists will say it's not the same; and it's not because each has some kid of artifacts to it, it's more than offset by allowing 600kg of poo poo to be replaced by 2kg of poo poo

doubt it, you're sending audio signals but control voltages for the most part, like connecting a keyboard controller to an oscillator so that the keyboard can tell it "hey make a waveform at 440hz"

tho i don't know how the output from the oscillator to say the low pass filter works if that's audio or not

most of those patch cables cant just be that. it'll be poo poo like, heres a signal, use it to control the frequency on this oscillator (fm synth kinda) or something

oh absolutely -- part of the point of a modular synth is you can mix and match parts and put me wherever in the cabinet so you can have three oscillators or two lfos or filters what have you

apparently hans zimmer had one, here's the load out

>3 VCO. 1 factory custom with waveform select ,from a single output
>1 VCF. Freq AND resonnance are volt. controlled.
>1 HPF with resonnance. Freq AND resonnance are volt. controlled.
>4 VCA ( 2 dual)
>4 DADSR (2 dual) : 1 standard dual, 1 dual factory custom :the upper with 2 gate selector , the lower with 2 outputs selector and attenuator.
>5 mixers .each with 4 ins and + - outputs.
>1 LFO. 5 waveforms, control over PW and freq.
>1 rare quadrature oscillator. 4 outs, for surround panning or other complex modulations.
>1 octave divider. for waveforms or impulses.
>1 dual Sample and Hold.
>1 dual ring modulation.
>1 (spring) reverb.
>1 enveloppe folower.
>1 phase shifter.
>1 voltage quantizer
>3 multiples .
>1 5 bands Parametric EQ. 5 X frequency / Q /Level.+cut / boost.
>1 bipolar attenuators. X 3.
>1 variableDC source. X 3.
>1 keyboard output controller, with pressure, dynamics, X/Y controls >corresponding to the polyfusion keyboards wide possibilities,or to be connected to a Kenton
>2 power supplies.

i was expecting this to excessive but thats a pretty reasonable feature list tbh (like relative to what a modern synth might be using throughout a setlist). Pretty fuckin cool

I got an exhaust fan for my shower room to blow out moist air. it has a setting for how moist the air needs to be for it to start. on one end it has one big drop graphic, on the other end two smaller drops. it also has an ir sensor so it always runs when it detects movement so you can't tune it by feel.

gently caress you, fan, gently caress you.

can you just cover it up while you ~moisture tune~ it?
