I like to announce the release for Xmonk.lv2 version 0.2
Xmonk is a sound generator based on the Faust `SFFormantModelBP` from
physmodels.lib by Mike Olsen.
It's a monophonic formant/vocal synthesizer.
The source isĀ a sawtooth wave and the "filter" is a bank of resonant
bandpass filters.
Xmonk provide a interface to drive the filter/synthesizer via mouse
movement.
Additional Xmonk provide a midi in port to drive it with any midi
controller.
On top Xmonk provide a virtual keyboard to drive it with your PC
keyboard/mouse combination.
Surely you could use your DAW automation to drive it the way you want.
Xmonk could play in two different modes, on is the usual note on/off,
the other is sustain, means the last note play forever, while you play
with the vowel filter settings.
Xmonk could be used with a free scaled temperament, or as selected with
Equal Tempered scales from 12 to 53.
Here you get it:
