Hey Daniel
Than you so much for your feedback - you made my day realy nice :)
well to answer all your questions - it is 95% improvisation with one instance of my plugin - i will upload windows vst so you can try it out. its a simple 4op fm with delay witch i use as a looper and a Freeverb+filter reverb module - all made with synthedit - i do also use Puredata a lot but studies for fm synth are just one vst plugin - i like minimal approach as you noticed :). i improvised a lots of pieces and just compiled best ones - with very bit of editing/cutting out bad parts and mastering it. i lay out controls of my synth to a midi controler so i have bunch of knob to play with :) very happy you liked it
in my studies time i tried some microtonality stuff (also with my acoustic compositions) but lately im doing a lots of synths programming. since im done with the uni im not s much in academic circles so i dont follow where are the competitions... in? the past i did send some of my works here and there and got some good feedback - but as you know its not so important :)
i will also upload later a sysex with my dx27 sounds - there are some simmilar stuff there - so you can try them out - but since i lay out lots of controls on real knobs/sliders its difficult to get that variety on a real dx synth? (we are all waiting for a new yamaha fm synth with lots of knobs and better programming interface but.. maybe yamaha pays us here to design new one one day - that would be cool :)
about LFO modulation trick i was writing about - i know, you are right there- modulation is happening, but VERY slow. with such a speed (0,0008hz) and keysync in reality you can ignore it becose i will press a next key and reset it to 0 again. i guess i does not work that well on other dx synths with faster 0 LFO times
i will check your music and profile later today - im very courious!
i write later
best
nikola
