Hi!
I reorganized the Mx4 panel layout slightly to regain some screen
realestate.
Added a few more waweforms
Added intonation envelopes (pitch up/down) for each oscillator.
You get it at:

you're not planning to support ppc (even without altivec optimizations)
are you ?

The Apple G4 with altivec sits here on my desk ...
But I am a bit too lazy and uninspired these days ...
And also: The Intel version is getting along quite nicely :-)

can you provide some example patches, please? all i seem to get out is
noise with no recognizable pitch relation to the MIDI note input ...
the user interface will be a lot easier to understand with example
patches, too. (not to say i don't like it, on the contrary!)

Hi Tim!
The screenshot shows a very basic patch using only osc 1:
All env levels at max, all env time at min nothing else in particular
except that FREQUENCY is NON ZERO (actually 4.00 I believe.) Oh, and
there is a bit of phase modulation applied from osc 1 (self) to osc 1
...
Hint: When the timings of the sustainloop is zero, it will oscillate in
the audible spectre which is probably not what you want on your first
session.

ok, now i can at least recognize the notes i play :)
can it be you're not taking any anti-aliasing precautions?

Uhmm ... You do antialiasing similar to the Yamaha DX5/7/9, by pulling
down the keybias for high notes, ending up with first pure sines and
after that nothing.
Did you do (as root):
$ chown root.root ./mx4 && chmod 4711 ./mx4
Hmm ... ...
The phase modulation value from the screenshot is -23.33
It should sound like a somewhat simplistic synth-harp, no?

OSS applications run via alsa-emulation on the onboard via82xx here,
and the alsa driver doesn't work with 2 periods ('blocks' in Mx4
talk).
switching to the ice1712 device or to 4 periods makes Mx4 work like a
charm. nice, clear sound indeed, sorry about any worries i may have
caused.
(hint) this wouldn't have happened with a jackified Mx4 ...

(hint 2) so now you know what to do this coming "wochende" ;->

Click the pretty picture at the end of page, unzip mx4patch.zip in the
directory you start mx4 from (It should have created this file already
when you started it the first time.)

oops ..
[~/audio/src/Mx4-7] unzip ../mx4patch.zip
Archive: ../mx4patch.zip
error [../mx4patch.zip]: missing 11 bytes in zipfile
(attempting to process anyway)
error [../mx4patch.zip]: start of central directory not found;
zipfile corrupt.
(please check that you have transferred or created the zipfile in
the
appropriate BINARY mode and that you have compiled UnZip properly)
but it's a nice little boat you have there. :)
