Jack Dark released the synthmaker "source code" to novuzeit apps...... http://rapidshare.com/files/80683121/JD ... E.ZIP.html .......but there's no OSM files, only SE1.

i tried opening an SE1, but synthmaker cacked and died.

These are SynthEdit files. You cannot open them in SynthMaker.

a myth wrapped in a riddle wrapped in a conundrum.

-These are SynthEdit files. no shit? i thought i found the right place. 🙂

-You cannot open them in SynthMaker. wrong! they are "opened" in synthmaker, as you just said in your previous contradictory statement, just not from the 'File' menu. care to throw me a cluebone or is this board full of recalcitrant condescending a-holes who beat down and ridicule everyone who isn't part of their click? if so, i can always RTFM

SynthMaker and SynthEdit are two different programs.

Wow considering the helpful answer you recieved that is one strong and wrong reply

No JD uses Synthedit, SE1 is a synthedit format and OSM is synthmaker, unless he made some with synthmaker also you won't be able to open them. 😉

seeing as you posted a helpful reply in another thread I'm guessing you're not a troll in which case... Woh! Way to make an entrance, insult the regulars when they give you a perfectly accurate and reasonable answer....

SynthEdit is a VST construction program and they also use modules.I have a nice collection of SE modules,it would be nice to be able to open them in SM.I can tell you this--Synth Edit is old software and it crashes rather easily.

The latest Beta of SE is not that old and a new version is on the way to deal with the multicore issues SE has never crashed on me easily and i have been using it since before it was ever released publicly SE modules will never work in SM because they are such radically different apps

You bring up a good point why SE is better, though (I'm sure you notice NAS) that SM crashes far less now.

If SM had a SDK, you could more or less import the source code into SM from SE module sources 😉

BALTHOR, if you have the source files for those modules, you can re-write them into SM. I'm sure many would appreciate them! If they're written in C for the audio parts, you'll have to edit them to work in Code. Sometimes you can rewrite GUI items in the green stuff.

On the whole se sm thing i like both but sm is my choice because of the low level workflow so i can make more complex stuff imo, from using se in the past and a few times recently i think it is more efficiant cpu wise and has had lots of optimizations (possibly because its older, i think?), i think sm needs to improve in that area for all the non coders like me who don't know asm etc also improve on speeds when working with big/huge projects, i think the devs did a great job on the load times issue so im sure they can do this and my hopes is that it will be one of the next big updates, crash wise in sm i still get them all the time mainly on exiting and loading projects.

Every version of SM is about the same.You can download older versions and they are about the same.SE always crashed on me.I have many screen captures of SE crashing in the SE forum.There is also something in there about an army of evil robots. SM is software in a computer.You tell a computer what to do and it does it.Source code has been X'd out by me.

Wow, how could I forget to put an "army of evil robots" in my synth? 😀

That's how Novakilldoes it!!! Bones is a synth-making hero of mine actually... & uses SE.

SE can be faster because every single module can be written in ASM, not just audio code snipits, & the SDK made it more attractive to 3rd party developers. I think SM's alpha is older than SE, but SE had a more working beta 3-4 years ago.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
