Okay, I think I am having a little difficulty understanding what's going on
here. At first I was under the impression that you were looking to port a
VST plugin developed by this German magazine to a linux plugin format.
After reading your email, I think you're looking to develop a plugin port
of minicomputer, whose features and UI will *parallel* those of another
synth which is being developed by the magazine. It seems that the VST
plugin which I found (using a machine translation of the website) was *not*
synonymous with the synth designs that you were pointing to. So basically,
if I am correct (and correct me if I'm wrong), the magazine posted design
information about a synth, (but not anything else), and some unrelated
programmer posted modifications of synths he previously wrote, which he made
to fit the designs outlined in the magazine. And you are hoping to *also*
create a synth which fits these design goals, although you want to make it
an open source linux synth plugin, rather than a closed source windows synth
plugin. Please let me know what of the above was incorrect.
So, for a starting point, I've imported the minicomputer sources into a git
repository:https://github.com/jeremysalwen/Minicomputer-LV2

You do have the required skills, just need to
choose the right tool.
By the way,
to advance my skills C++ and DSSI/LV2 ..
is anyone willing to offer a mentorship??
regards, Sascha

Hi Sascha,
I have enough experience with LV2 plugins that I could probably help you,
or
do some of it myself. I'm not the most
knowledgeable guy around here,
but
this seems like a pretty limited scope project,
so I think I could be of
use
as a "mentor".
Oh thanks ..
However, I seem to have difficulty finding the
source on the
website you linked. I registered for the for the forums, and I found a
binary download for windows and mac, but nothing I could start hacking
on.

Thats all they have for the Tyrell, the planing of this synth and what
it should do is described as a sort of manual in one of the links
http://www.amazona.de/index.php?page=26&file=2&article_id=3191&…
here from page 2 the moogulator describes in detail what the synth
does. Sorry, all in german.
Urs Heckmann a german VSTi developer took some of the code of his
existing VSTi's and made the alpha plugin within 3 days.
This U-He plugin will be free- or magware but will stay closed source.
Therefor my idea after the post of Malte Steiner here was to take the
engine of his "minicomputer" from
http://minicomputer.sourceforge.net/
Malte himself had the idea of making this synth polyphon and
monotimbral as LV2 or DSSI plugin, but lacks time.
Advantage of this synth is that it is an absolutely lightweight.
