[comp.sys.mac.apps] Synthesis programs for samplers on the Mac

cho@aber-cs.UUCP (C.H. Orgill) (08/07/90)

Does anyone have any pointers to synthesis programs
for the Macintosh that will produce samples for the cheaper
sampling keyboards ? (esp. Ensoniq Mirage). I have only
come across Sound Designer and TurboSynth. Packages for
conventional additive synthesis are of interest as well as
the more popular methods.

Hi

Is softsynth still available?  It lets you do additive synthesis on
your mac (FM too!) and then allows you to transfer the sample to any
number of samplers (emax, ensoniq, eII, prophet 2002, etc...)  It's
a good program, but I haven't seen it in a while.  I think its
another digidesign product, but I'm not sure.

Alchemy is another AWESOME sample editing program-- similar in
function to Universal Sounddesigner... Check it out!
