This is collecting thread for my drumsynth project.

It is supposed to be a commercial plugin, with me as the project leader, thus I make the rules, and the first will be that everybody who wants to contribute will _A_ be under NonDisclosure and _B_ get parts of possible revenues.

It will be a hybrid synth/sampler that is focussed on lots of articulation possibilities, playing fun, versatility and a huge database of drums and alike.

post here if you want to join, mipa will set up a basecamp account for this. I will email you.

But before all this can happen, I have to make a full doc on my idea. Discussing this idea will be the first thing to do.

cheers!

I'm in! I was thinking about making one just for snares & claps... so hard to make one in Buzz. You know I'm good at bug testing 😉

skOre ·

Sure, my idea might be good, as my constructions, but I don't underestimate a good critic 😉

Can you post, in non-lawyer terms, an approximation to NDA?

skOre ·

If you're in, or in the case that you leave the team, you acknowledge not to say a word about what is or was going on in the team. You don't DISclose, something that is closed.

Will be kind of fuzzy since I plan to release the components of it... 😉

Hey Infuzion,

Could you send me an e-mail with your full name and the username you want to have to be able to log on to the .drum project ?

Please send it to: [email removed]

Thanks!

Mipa

I really love the name .drum, did I say that?

I also think about a multieffect plu... well, how about somebody get my 36 hours more daytime?

(I would however call it .effect - great name, hum?)

mipa ·

Days are way too short indeed 😀 Thank god the weekend's here though 😉 @ skOre: you should have an e-mail containing some info. Please check it 🙂

Well i'll have a go, I have a vast library of original drum hits and have a long experience of creating presets.

How much i can help with the build i'm not sure but i will as far as possible (I'm actually still better in SE at the mo)

skOre ·

I'm not sure whether I want any samples at all in the synth, but it could be great if we had a library of sounds that we want to achieve with it...

Decided to put up the concept for everybody by the way. Still not sure when I find some time to finish it though 😉

mipa ·

Back again... Of course I got sick and had to spend a day in bed 🙁

But I see things are getting started, which is good 🙂 NAS, do you want to be added to the basecamphq project too ? If so send me your username + fullname (to [email removed]) and I'll add you ASAP.

thanks, Mipa.

got to have a look at the .drum project page and boom - lots of stuff going on 😉 Had a few comments, and uploaded a first sketch of my concept.

Whats the url for the .drum project or is it a team only thing?

skOre ·

team only, wanna apply?

mipa would be the best adress, as he is managing our project page...

But be warned! Its NDA-zone.

Will probably leak out a part of the concept if we discussed it on the team

Tom7777 ·

No not at the moment but thanks for the offer, i just have to much work right now really to take part in anything like that plus i have a few unfinished projects of my own still. I hope you do well with your project 🙂 Are you going to be posting screenshots and stuff, i will probably buy it if i think its something i might need to make tracks that i don't have already 🙂

skOre ·

ah, k, just like me... sure I be posting stuff along the way to create interest... oh, possibly our first customer 😉

Tom7777 ·

I really like aphex twin and plaids music so if it can make those granular sounding drums then im interested already 🙂

skOre ·

Hell yeah, I love sample destruction. Thus, there will be a lot of tools in it 🙂

Before your first post

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    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.
