Looks very interesting, and look forward to learning more. Great stuff :)

Is this designed for standard waveforms or will it work with complex waveforms too?

Hi, DragonSF !

But where, on which platform, how, when ?

Cool, I've got 2 Teensy 3.6 boards + Audio shields for them.

Did you extend the audio library in 1.42, or do something completely different?

I can beta test if you'd like. This seems like a good base for a eurorack oscillator ;)

Stay with Teensy! Or any other similar board, I love playing with these small things in my workspace. I have 2 NextThing TheChip's left in service here, 4 raspberry pi's from the first model up to a 3, and a box full of arduinos that have served as LED strip controllers and many other things. I would love a reason to add a Teensy to the arsenal, and for music no less =]

More than me then, but it’s not a primary focus here. I’ll grab a teensy if you want to throw a beta my way too...

I also have a Teensy 3.6 (and a 2++): What would be the best alternative to the official audio shield for Teensy 3.6?

Thanks DragonSF.
I will check that.

Edited your title for you. Next client billing I'll grab a teensy and participate...

That’s really interesting news, especially if you were able to reuse much of the code generated by teensy!

I downloaded the teensy files, and instead of the GUI, I was looking into adding a USB host port to talk with my Ableton Push 1, and then do the midi mapping from there. Just assessing it right now.

I can post the GUI files if you would like.

It probably is best I grab them if you don't mind. I am liking the Push->teensy interface...I think I'll make a stand-alone version of the midi mapper, and maybe add a sequencer some day ;) The first edition Push's are pretty cheap these days second hand, and make a great interface.

Maybe trying to integrate Push as an interface for scope-sync would be worthy...I can imagine controlling mixers, synths, and effects via the Push's interface directly, and auto-populating and auto-mapping the display/controls

It's a bug if the database for the attachments tables. Thought I fixed it, I'll check later.

Heh my 'fix' made it worse. Ok I'll have to dig in deeper later, apologies for delay.

By the way can you theme the channels themselves?

Re: New Sound Designer Tool : Harm Gen Synth (non-Scope)

It's the channels I would change. If you can use the existing graphics and simply have them blend a bit more with the images you're using in the background while keeping the depth of the channel black, I think it would look better.

Here's a quick example of what I'm seeing in terms of too much contrast on the channels (the slider controls should be the most obvious imo, check my edit on the background channel of the first 3) and the buttons (check the ADSR):Here's a quick example of what I'm seeing in terms of too much contrast on the channels (the slider controls should be the most obvious) and the buttons (check the ADSR):

I like the toggle switches in the bottom most image as that makes sense for phase 'flip'. The black/graphite look is the clearest to date imo. It also has my favorite for your large knobs. Offset knobs would probably look good on the black too, with the brass/copper as is. Now just for some metal switches =]
