Members Unfed Posted June 13, 2006 Members Share Posted June 13, 2006 anyone ever use this program for the Atari? it started out as a sample editor (maybe an early version of Wavelab?), but v2.0 added a sort of virtual modular synth environment that featured some pretty advanced forms of synthesis for the time. i was just thinking about this yesterday, i *really* regret getting rid of it sometimes. i'll admit though that i never had an ST that was quite powerful enough to run it smoothly, it crashed frequently when i pushed it too hard. i would have liked to see how it ran on a 4mb ST. check it out if you're interested, it's pretty damn cool for when it was released. here's a link to a great Sound On Sound review of it along with some screenshots... http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/jul99/articles/retrosteinberg.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Unfed Posted June 13, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 13, 2006 ahh, good point. not sure, or if there was anything else around at the time that compared. check out all the synthesis types (including Phase Distortion) in the SOS review...

Members zeronyne Posted June 13, 2006 Members Share Posted June 13, 2006 I had it and used it on a Falcon. It STILL was not nearly enough power to keep it from crashing. I went from that setup straight into Turbosound on a MacIIfx. Then real life kicked in (university), and my days of tweaking a sound for hours were gone. Hello, ROMplers. I TOTALLY regret selling my Atari. I did more personal (non-commissioned) music in the few years I had C-Lab Notator than I have in all the subsequent years combined.

Members Analog Kid Posted June 13, 2006 Members Share Posted June 13, 2006 heh, what is with the block that says KSS? Is that where you modulate using the back and forth bickering over the price of the OASYS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roald Posted June 14, 2006 Members Share Posted June 14, 2006 no, the KSS block is where a lot of signals go in and no music comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
