I must admit (my) Reaktor realization is way more powerful in QM synthesis demonstration. It makes so obvious I've put so much effort into source wave forming. And since it's got direct connection with the output sound spectrum I wouldn't recommend to use just a few simple oscillators as source wave. Modulation index does some serious sense as well.. About Breakshade2.. I'll probably sit to construct that one later this year. I assume it's going to be more and more experimental drum machine.. Yeah, I’ve checked the demo.

Just wanted to let you know that the NMG2 demo will probably allow you to try this patch. Pick up some of Megerov's, and JLS's patches too. Really looking forward to Breakshade2.

Not having access to Reaktor, but being a great lover of experimental synthesis I was really happy to hear that K.M.Krebs had made a VSTi. I'm in the middle of writing about how automating the various parameters in real time made for some really interesting morphing sounds, from a chiptunesque arpeggiation to an organic, burbling stream when I thought to come by and offer my thanks. Of course I made a song with it, but I ended up using DtBlkFxStereo to spectrally vocode drums through QM-Synth, and then add some wildly-automated QM through automated Lost Technology resynthesis VST so it's not exactly representative of the QM sound... I'll have to make a more lucid DSP essay with sound examples sometime. Ghetto freeware modularity, anyone? Thanks to both of you!

I guess QM is now in hardware :) Would be great to hear how does that patch sounds like. The important things are source modulator waveform and an accuracy (and range) of the frequency knobs, then it's gonna get the right sound I think. That’s great, Beatretreat!

I'm not very familiar with CSound yet, but I heard a lot of good about the software. Most important ways of QM-development are: extending oscillators frequencies range, accuracy, use QM as general modulator (besides FM usage), predicting (calculating) sound effective frequencies. There seems to be more and more ways, but I've mentioned the obvious ones. Keep me informed about the developing your synths. I'll try to find something to post about QM in *part II*. That’s cool.
