      Hi guys, I got a bit fan about spectral and additive things. I'm working on a synth
      It's based on a real spectrum but with the possibility to play with partials to create new sounds. Do you think is something worth to be developed?

      If you want to play with it on mac >>
      Au Mac Plug-in

        The presets sound pretty good to me, I dont know much if anything about the methods you're using here though.

          @hisefilo sounds really interesting!
          I am trying something using partials too, but I'd like to mix/blend them with samples (not instrument) via harmonic filter, but the latter is very limited. Although, a transition between h.filter and partials would be possible

          Is the offset a midi script delay per generator?

          What tool do you use for analysing partials?
          SPEAR seems to be a good one…

          I can't help pressing F5 in the forum...

            @ustk I played around with Spear a few times but the interface is a little clunky. I use the frequency analysis tool in Audacity and if I need more detail I export the analysis and open it in a spreadsheet.

              @d-healey I don't know much Audacity, does it allow you to visualize the spectrum over time as well?

                @ustk It has a spectrogram if that's what you mean. I don't think it can do a frequency plot over time like my previous screenshot.

                  @d-healey for spectrograms I like Voxengo Span, wich is deeply customizable and free

                    @ustk sounds cool. Harmonic filter is a bit limited on Hise, yes.
                    Offset is just a delay in milliseconds on the standard simple gain module.

                    I ve tryied spear and audition. Both are great starting points

                      @Dalart is just additive synthesis. The fun part is that you can reach a real timbre or create an abstract unreal thing manipulating harmonics one by one.

                        @hisefilo I find the two most difficult parts are maintaining a realistic timbre throughout the playable range and creating the attack of the instrument.

                          @d-healey attack is the hardest part by far. This is why I added a 2 noise generators. To help emulate attack caos. But this sketch is not to emulate real sounds but to use a real spectrum to play with and make weird transformations

                            @d-healey if you copy these gain values from picture on that sketch I did, you'll have a similar timbre.
