BTW, if you need betatesting, just let me know. I have an iMac running Snow Leopard and an Acer laptop running Ubuntu 9.10 and WinXP (I never use it, but it’s there just in case).

I thought there were already a ton of 8-bit style synths!! Well then, you’ll have it ;)

But I need to finish with this first. The good thing of it is that if you don’t use some features, you can safely ignore them. I’m leaving the most important parameters (the ones which configure the basic/raw sound) above, so if one just wants 8-bit style sounds, it’s easy to get some sounds quickly.

I don’t want anything hyperfeatured but the opposite: I just want an 8bit style synth that just works! I have tested the YMCK plugin and it crashes like hell (http://www.ymck.net/english/download/index.html)

@anhelido yeah I plan to release at least the sources … might build binaries for mac maybe too :)

Although… don’t expect anything revolutionary!

1) I haven’t used windows for 5 years. I use GCC and friends. Not going to install Windows just for a prod.

2) Renoise exports an XML which is easier to parse than any tracker’s binary format. I know from experience :P

3) thanks!
