Latest WINTERMUTE firmware. Take 2

video upload by SPHERICAL SOUND SOCIETY

"WINTERMUTE is an intriguing creation—a hybrid of drum machine, groove box, and experimental generative synth. While its nature defies classification, its intuitive design makes it super accessible, allowing users to craft unique loops, crescendos, and even complete sessions with ease.

At its heart lies a 4-Operator FM engine, drawing inspiration from the iconic Yamaha chips found in classic arcade machines and consoles.

However, WINTERMUTE adds its own creative twists, pushing the boundaries of sound design and exploration.

New Prototype Synth: Wintermute

video upload by SPHERICAL SOUND SOCIETY

"This is a new prototype synth, called Wintermute.

Its a generative groovebox based on the OPL3 Yamaha FM chip.

Somehow I have managed to run an OPL3 emulator inside an overclocked pi pico.

Once the emulator is running, I have applied the basic strategies of ARCANE and expanded it to drive the emulator. It results in a groovebox that is wild, glitchy and quite imprevisible. It produces all kind of Akira like soundscapes and rhythmic phrases

Currently is in development phase, no idea if it will finish being released.

If someone is interested in getting one prototype as it is now, just send us a message."
