omg I figured out a horrible kludge involving multiple audio interfaces and MIDI over 5-pin DIN. I had to disassemble my little music bench to do it. I hate it.
But I will record the video after lunch.
#Hyphasia
I prepped to do a video on sound design in #Hyphasia but rtpMIDI has decided to completely stop working today. None of the restart/reboot rituals are working either.
So I guess I'm fighting that today. Maybe I'll fix something in time to still record. Hopefully I'm not in a Mood after this.
I've been doing quality of life stuff on #Hyphasia today. Reset (to default) buttons. UI fixes. Tooltip improvements.
I think I'm going to do a longer video this weekend exploring sound design with the instrument.
Today I mostly worked on sound design options and parameters. The big one I finished is log-frequency combs for the inharmonic emitters. It's a subtle difference, but it definitely changes the sound as you walk over the octaves.

With the "local time" parameter ticked, the modulation timeline is per-note instead of shared globally. This is something like an LFO retrigger, but there's infinite polyphony and each note already owns its LFOs, so it's just about frame of reference.

I have MIDI beat/tempo sync working!
#Hyphasia doesn't track time in the MIDI/plugin layer, but the synth core. Musical and "real" time are tied together.
So I use a PLL to sync the internal quarter-note to MIDI. Works much better than I expected for a first pass.

Working on MIDI sync / beat lock right now. I've gotta handle so many different modes and sources. Trying to do as much automatically/universally as I can, but I'm afraid it's gonna wind up with user options.
Shit's complicated lol

A screenshot of a fragment of the Hyphasia UI. Minimalist white text on black background. The screenshot shows a popup for selecting channel and note ranges for a timbre. There are dropdowns showing "Ch.5" and "F#5".
Updated the input zone UI to be a lot more compact and friendly. It now uses standard note names/ranges instead of opaque numbers. Plus it takes up way less vertical space in the UI. I also moved it up next to the "active" checkbox. So much cleaner.

Neat! I finally found the closest ancestor to phase sculpture synthesis: spectral modeling synthesis.

I realized I'm using streamer software to capture, so it's super easy to record synced video!

After all those disappointing weeks of math, I had kind of lost the joy in Hyphasia. Hours of tweak an expression, play a sweep, weep.
The past few days I've just been *playing* Hyphasia.
I forgot it's already beautiful. I forgot what it can sound like. I feel joy.

Here's a mournful little improv with multi-channel input.
Got the drone on channel 1 and the lead on 2.

This video shows some of the visual power of modulation. This is the emitter's Bandwidth and Start Position parameters both modulated by the mod wheel.
I'm using MusiKraken with a hand position tracker input like a theremin.

Holy shit. These are just simple modulations with simple gestures. And I'm not a good musician.
Wow!

Well hot damn!
Modulation works pretty nice. This is just mod wheel on the comb stride parameter.
MusiKraken is a really, really nice expressive control for Hyphasia. I'm using it to prototype the built-in performance interface I'll use for the iPad app.

Sometimes while I'm debugging, I get lost in the sauce.
I'm using MusiKraken to send poly aftertouch and sostenuto here.
#Hyphasia
Okay, today I'm going to fix the MPE fanout bug and then I get to play Prey. That's the deal I'm making with me.
#Hyphasia
Trying to figure out how to capture/video this setup. It's not clear because I don't really have a studio or anything like that. And my living situation is not something I'm trying to put on video. 🤣
Also found a bug with MPE sustain pedal which is making me crazy. JUCE and MIDI stuff.
#Hyphasia
MusiKraken is pretty awesome with #Hyphasia.
I have it tracking my hand with the camera, and then I have "openness" of the hand sending the sostenuto pedal. Y finger slide on the keyboard is polyphonic aftertouch (or MPE pressure) for live volume.
This is really controllable, natural polyphony.
lol nope OCD says I can't have pretty vfx dopamine until I get the modulation stuff done.
Turns out my KeyStep has pretty unexpressive aftertouch.
Got MusiKraken for iPad. This is super nice for testing because I can configure the controller to send exactly what I want.

Okay, I've gotta get back into this from another angle. I left off with UI work for modulation... and it's just not inspiring joy to come back to that after wrangling with the synth math.
UI is my biggest burnout trigger.
I think I'm gonna hit the particle art tomorrow.

Today's just been about getting back in the groove. I cleaned up some code so I can add the rest of the non-CC MIDI modulation sources (aftertouch, pressure, etc.). I also left hooks for the breath control mode I'll add at some point.

One of the positive things from the last few weeks of deep audio work is that I'm pretty confident the core audio engine is Basically Done. It cannot become more expressive without violating the laws that mathematically stabilize it.
That crystalizes focus.

Trying to figure out if today is gonna be productive or if I'm just gonna play more #NewVegas.
Leaning toward games. 🤣
This weekend, though, I'm doing a #Hyphasia sprint to finish the UI for modulation and push a new build. After that, I'll enable more graphics bling and do more musical tuning.
Uploaded a new build ⧉ today.

#Hyphasia
I've mostly spent today stripping code out of #Hyphasia. Getting back to a baseline to continue work.
As the instrument as revealed its soul to me, I've learned what I need to strip away. I know the strengths of this instrument, and how to trade them differently for the next synth.
