Description

DESCRIPTION:

The Evolver instruments are created because i was looking for string/pad sounds and textures that could evolve in time, with (small or radical) variations in timbre.
The instruments are of a modular design, built with ftmorf as a basis module; so you can stream fluidly from one timbre to another within a single note.
Other standard modules in these instruments are: Phaser, Swell, Output.

The Evolver Type A uses the adsynt opcode. The A in the name represents 'adsynt'.

scheme: FTMORF ---------ADSYNT --------(FILTER)--------(PHASER)--------(SWELL)------OUTPUT

note example:
i2 0 0.8 60 1.0 ; P4 = midi value, P5 = amplitude
i2 0 0.2 261.625565 1.0 ; P4 = frequency, P5 = amplitude

CONTROLLERS:

see the help balloon when hovering over the controllers in the instrument. Help can be turned off by pressing the 'I' button next to the play bar.

---

version 2.2, November 2020
- added filter
- added ADSR graphic envelope
- added P4 frequency/Midi pitch option

version 2.1, November 2019
- added 3 ADSRs

version 2.0, octobre 2019
- new GUI (more compact)
- renaming BSBs
- # of voices and Harmonic Ratio can be changed in between Objects

version 1, december 2017
- choose from a list of timbre presets
- evolve from one timbre to another up to 16 sounds, forwards or backwards
- scale fuction to scale wavesequencer sounds over the note
- determine where to start the scaling in the note
- morphing can also be done manually by drawing an Automation Line (wavedraw)
- mono or stereo with setting different seed values with XY controller for Left and Right channel
- special effects section (copied and adapted from the Csound manual (adsynt example))
- phaser effect implemented with on/off switch and mixing, lots of options to slowly evolve the timbre even more
- Swell for amplitude to give an amp accent in the note
