i must heartily second the Tuareg vote. his interface/mixer concept and mixing functions are both simple and genius. one of those ideas you really wonder why it hadn't turned up before. apart from a lack of zero-crossing support in the variator and gate mask functions, and some interface quibbles in this version, 1.5, i absolutely love it. best $35 i've ever spent on software. and pretty much all of my current gripes are being addressed in Tu2, which sounds like it's fairly close at hand (don't quote me, i'm only hoping). it sounded like he had a lot of the underlying audio processing code complete and he was working on the interface. gotta check out this crusher x program now ... i've been using HOG http://shoko.calarts.edu/hog/ to convolve wave samples and get some really odd stuff to fart around in Tuareg with. HOG's a beta program, so it's got a couple bugs, but it's a blast, highly recommended. btw, anyone know of any other available wave convolution programs, or programs that have that function? love, mike ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rick Walker (loop.pool)" <GLOBAL@cruzio.com> To: <Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com> Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2002 3:36 AM Subject: Crusher X and Tuareg...........tres cool programs > Rainer Straschill wrote: > > > I just ran across this granular synthesis software synth called Crusher X > by > > Jörg Stelkens which I'd like to recommend to anyone interested in strange > > noise.
