OPL FM synthesizer 1.1 released

We have released OPL for macOS, Windows and Linux as AudioUnits, VST, VST3 and Standalone.

The OPL is a digital sound synthesis chip developed by Yamaha in the mid 1980s. Among other products, it was used in sound cards for PC, including the Ad Lib card and early Sound Blaster series.

At a technical level: the emulator has channels comprised of 2 oscillators each. Each pair of oscillators is usually combined via phase modulation (basically frequency modulation). Each oscillator can produce one of eight waveforms (sine, half sine, absolute sine, quarter sine, alternating sine, camel sine, square, logarithmic sawtooth), and has an ADSR envelope controlling its amplitude. The unusual waveforms give it a characteristic sound.

Includes 2480 Sound Blaster instrument presets.
Additional information can be found at OPL page.

Scope visualizer 1.0 released

We have released Scope for macOS, Windows and Linux as AudioUnits, VST and VST3.

An oscilloscope uses a two-axis graph to give a visual representation of a waveform over time, with the horizontal axis representing time and the vertical axis representing the amplitude.

Oscilloscopes are frequently used to assist dynamics processing and sound synthesis. It's usually placed last in the signal chain, so that it analyses the cumulative effects of any plugins placed before it. Like any analysis plugin, though, you can place it anywhere in the chain, to view the signal at that point.

Additional information can be found at Scope page.

FJ Project Discovery Pro Bank

FJ Project has released a new commercial bank with 128 Sounds Preset Hard Trance, Hard Style, Tech Trance for Discovery Pro.

New, fresh and original 100% samples free for use in your productions. This Sound Bank Contain 128 different preset: Fat Synth, Acid&Dark Lead, Pad and Tech Sounds FX for Hard Trance, Tech Trance and Hard Style Music Production. Compatible with all model Discovery releases. All Sounds have been programmed by Luca Cominato alias FJ Project.

For someone who is not even 30 years old, Luca Cominato (also known as FJ Project) has created a name for himself in the hard trance world! Founder of the genre of music known as 'Darkstyle', you are guaranteed a mixture of ferocious beats, thumpin' acid and dark synth work with this Italian wonder! With numerous worldwide bookings, managing three very successful labels 'Darksquad' 'Trance National' and 'Acid Records', releases on some of the worlds finest imprints such as German Trance, Compulzion, Trance NRG, and running a radio show are just some of the many talents of this producer.

After starting to use Technics decks at the age of 13, it took until the age of 16 for Luca to enter the world by discovering sampling. After four years of this, the decision was made to cooperate with his brother Massimiliano Cominato alias MAX ONE and ULTRAPHONIC Studio was formed. This opened up a whole new dimension for Luca as he was allowed to explore his sound and release many records under different guises, using the following aliases for productions: Hypersonic, The Projector, Dj Tom 809 and as he is most famously known FJ Project.

Under this guise he has revived the power of the 303 and produced countless hard trance tracks that feature distorted acid lines that rock the place, and DJs from Mark EG, Kutski,M-Zone, ASYS, Alex Kidd and Fausto right the way through to Scot Project and Bas & Ram are supporting his productions, with many DJs across the world praising him highly! Not just known for his excellent productions, Luca has DJ'd across the globe and has received bookings from Q-Dance to play the Orange Arena at Defqon 1 2009 (Holland), Nature One 2010 (Germany), HardNation and Programm 2 (Germany), Coast Club (DanimarK)in the UK he has been booked for the likes of FANTASY ISLAND, Atmosphere, Hindsight, Dekadance, Resonate, Premonition and Re-Beat to name just a few.

HighLife R3 released

HighLife R3 now has greatly improved sfz import, more in line with the official sfz specs. Most sfz files can now be used rightaway without the need to edit out any unsupported features or moving the soundfiles around on the computer.

Code by Andreas Sumerauer from Soundbytes.de.

SFZ Parser

Sample path can be relative or absolute to any location on the storage media.
Path names may contain blank spaces.
The <group> header can now be used.
<key> opcode is now recognized.
Comments can be put on the same line with opcodes.

Fixes and changes

The following additional zone parameters can now be modified from the zone editor panel: root key, low key, high key, low velocity, high velocity.
A couple of wave files that were refused by the previous version will now load fine.
Loopinfo will not be used if loopstart > loopend (workaround for some nonstandard wav editors)
When creating loop crossfades Highlife now implements a equal power crossfade instead of the previously used equal gain (linear) crossfade.
Highlife won't crash anymore whenever a sample can't be opened. Instead an error message is displayed and the load process is reverted.
Added Open Source Logo.
About box. (Click on the Highlife Logo to open).

HighLife SFZ Implementation

HighLife supports a subset of the sfz specification v1.0 opcodes. Unsupported opcodes can be included in the file. These will be ignored and should not cause any errors or misinterpretations. Unsupported headers (sfz v2.0 or third party) will be skipped. The parser will jump the next header if it finds an unknown one and ignore all opcodes inbetween.

Supported sfz Opcodes

sample, lokey, hikey, lovel, hivel, offset, tune, pitch_keytrack, pitch_keycenter, transpose, volume, pan, loop_start, loop_end, loop_mode, loccN, hiccN, lobend, hibend, lochanaft, hichanaft, lopolyaft, hipolyaft, trigger, group, off_by.

Receptor + discoDSP plugins

Muse Research, Inc. announced that it will ship the Discovery virtual analog synthesizer and Vertigo additive synth plug-in by discoDSP with their v1.0.1 software release. These synths bring remarkable functionality and a vast sound palette to Receptor, their portable hardware VST player. Discovery and Vertigo will be shown at the 117th AES show in addition to being made available for download on the company's www.plugorama.com website. All Receptor owners can download the plug-in from the plugorama website and try Discovery or Vertigo free for 30 days.

Discovery Features amazing virtual analog performance at a bargain price. Discovery DSP is a truly powerful virtual analog synth with dozens of powerful features, such as multi layering, a built-in arpeggiator, sync, FM capabilities, 8 filter types, panning modulation, stereo delay and gate effects, and thousands of enticing presets.

Discovery's architecture provides maximum flexibility when programming your own sounds. Start by selecting from the two oscillators, and then add one of the several types of filters, and then program the appropriate ADSR envelope for the sound. Finally, the flexible modulation scheme and built-in effects allow you to color your sound to your liking and save it to one of the 128 patch memories in one of 38 banks. With support for 4 layers per patch, and morphing between layers, Discovery quickly becomes a remarkably expressive synth for any type of music. Discovery even imports Nord Lead 2 and Nord Lead 2X patches directly.

Vertigo offers rich additive synthesis sounds coupled with powerful user interface. The notion of additive synthesis was once confined to research institutions due to the demanding computational load required by the nature of Additive Synthesis. Now with Receptor, it's possible to have additive synthesis available in a portable form. Vertigo has two discrete additive synth engines for creating layers, and also for morphing between individual sounds using a mod wheel or such real time parameters such as keyboard velocity.

Vertigo's programming capabilities are quite impressive, with a dedicated spectral viewmode that makes it possible to evolve spectra using a variety of control mechanisms,including importing the user's own bitmaps. To top it all off, Vertigo offers impressive resynthesis capabilities, a rather remarkable feature considering the price of the product.

For more information, about Receptor, visit www.museresearch.com, or send an email to info@museresearch.com, or call +(650) 326-5400.
