trails :)

I am not sure, there is such bad light pollution I would not be surprised if they are not visible.

You have got my attention, thank you! This sounds like you are describing a 2-sample averager (In + In(z-1))*.5 If you are describing what I think then you are about to hear me mention them shortly, They are a very effective bandaid covering up a symptom of a problem: parasitic oscillation. But they induce a half sample of latency. I have recently started looking into dynamically reducing the feedback gains based on some logic, that way I'm not just settling with quitting after the 2 sample averager. The 2 sample averager is a great recommendation though I must thank you.

Yep a simple 2 tap moving average. I think I read about it as a solution Yamaha engineers came to? I like what you’re doing, sounds beautiful and mellow, or really wild with the phase distortion stuff :)

People are requesting I make this project blocks compatible, but I am trying to do so without dropping features.. would making it blocks compatible make it more usable to you? If so I am curious how you would utilize the blocks modulation standard, I am wondering if I should remove the internal envelope generators, but I feel that leaving them there would save users time.

@@Totokoi1 I think it's a great idea making it blocks compatible. It will open up a whole new world and you can reach more potential users. I'm guessing having the envelope generators would make the module more cluttered and maybe more complicated than it needs to be? In my opinion it would be totally finde to drop the envelope generators, as long as you are able to have patch points for other modulation sources. Also the original Reaktor file will still be there and usable for the ones that don't want to use it in the Blocks environment.

​@@erazeTHEborders that is a good point, how offensive would you find the GUI being a whole lot larger? I know it is OCD tiny as it is right now, but the biggest hold up with the blocks framework is the visuals: this is going to look SO UGLY for the first few iterations... I am considering dropping the envelope generators for Modulators A, B, and C I figure those are so cheap and capable they are there if you want to use them of not... Im using the ABCD version of the framework, so I will have 4 control signals as opposed the the standard AB. what would you hook uop to this thing if you had the choice?

@@Totokoi1 I already kind of customized the GUI for my needs and spaced out most of the controls ;) So I would be totally fine with a larger GUI! In any way it is a complex beast and I'm wondering how it's possible to fit everything in a sleek GUI. Will probably take a lot of experimentation. I think it's a good idea to reduce it to the core function of what it does so you should leave out the envelope generators and focus on the modulators themselves. If you mean what kind of modulation sources I would use with it, I would go for the usual suspects: LFOs, envelopes and and sequencers. Having the option of 4 control signals would be totally amazing!

Thank you so much!! I just added envelopes for the 3 modulators, the knobs immediately below M are M envelope amount knobs. I have just updated the user library file so if you download the recent one it will have enveloped modulators. the controls are on the B panel, (just right click on the panel and select View B). The envelopes are ADBDSR, for normal ADSR functionality you will want to use A, D2, S, and R. I could hide the D1 and Breakpoint knobs if you would like. If you set B to 0 the D should be a lot snappier than D2. (D is linear decay, D2 is exponential decay, B is the value at which Decay1 switches to Decay2 (so setting B to 0 bypasses Decay2, when B is set to 1 Decay1 is bypassed). Thanks for the tip I appreciate you saying something!

I just consolidated the uploads to one file and gave you a little shout-out in the description :)

@@Totokoi1 thanks a lot for the adjustments and the shout-out. It's really nice to bring some movement to the oscillator modulators!

Thank you so much! I will actually, probably sooner now that someone is interested. I want to include comments inside the core structure so someone could read what is going on and why. I will also be including an instructional video, there is a process I am using that will reliably get you 70% of the way to a polished sound. I think that makes the upload way more user friendly. I'm actually about to start recording a follow up video to this video. If you would like I could inform when I post to the user library, or I could email you the file as is today, just let me know.

@@Totokoi1 thank you so much for the elaborate answer. I'll just give you a follow right now and I'm looking forward to the next video and general progression. Would really love to be able to use these incredible sounds at some point. And I am 100% sure that I'm not the only one. This is really wild and great work!

Thank you, those words mean a lot. I just posted the follow-up video. Btw I like your music, how much do you use Reaktor? Are any of your songs using Reaktor? Your music sounds professional, as a hobbyist Reaktor user I take musician feedback seriously, what would you like to see when I upload this project?

@@Totokoi1 that's very kind of you, thank you. I'm half way through the follow-up video and it's fascinating. I have to admit that I'm not the most experienced Reaktor user. I'm also totally untalented when it comes to building my own instruments/effects. However the possibilities with the vast amount of creativity in the User Library are really endless and I find myself going down this rabbit hole every once in a while. I mainly use Reaktor to generate soundscapes, weird tones, modulations and rhythmic patterns that I bounce out for my personal sample library. Some of those samples get incorporated into my music making process later on. So to be honest I can't really say if there are many sounds from my Reaktor explorations in my past music. But currently I've been enjoying it more and more so I'm pretty sure it will play a role in future releases. Concerning your question what I would like to see: Judging from your videos I guess everything is already there. The major unique thing with your ensemble is the crazy tones it can create. After that you can manipulate it in any way you want. You already implemented a basic filter, that's useful. Maybe some kind of basic modulation could be nice as well, but it's not really necessary.

This thing is a testbed, not necessarily practical for musical performance (yet), but I already have working envelope and LFO modulators just not displayed. Those things are easy for me to add, I just wanted to reduce the number of knobs on the screen while I was screen recording. The Filter macro actually offers all of the TSK, Ladder, and 8pole Ladder in nonlinear forms, as well as the Butterworth 1 filters and nonlinear, resonant Butterworth 2 filters. Oh yeah and resonant Bessel filters so it looks pretty small but that should be pretty capable. I guess I didn't mention anything about the filter or Efflim LeBivic's beautifully anti-aliased distortion stages in the tiny middle panel. I have quite a few thoughts on the project, making it hard to articulate all of the details without taking all day. I just uploaded it to the user library in its current form, search "Phase Modulated Formant Oscillators" or search my name in the user library. I just added more features so I will be uploading a newer version to the library pretty soon.

Thank you!

Thanks

Just fly 3 or 4 batteries doing only power loops everyday and you will get it down. Also I'm toggling Air mode on and off, Air mode can really mees with your backwards travel. This video is actually for a student I am teaching to fly.

also, you don't want any forward momentum when entering the power loop because you want to travel backward(notice how I decelerate before starting to ascend). you can Accelerate forward when you are descending if you want speed when exiting. The reason I say you don't want momentum is that you have to cancel at least 100% of that momentum when you are at the top of the power loop (when your vector of thrust is pointing in the direction you were traveling). Also if you are still new at power loops practice them in front of a tall object (the tree I was flying in front of for example). The tall object gives you a point of reference when your camera would be otherwise looking at just the sky. If you are still having trouble with them I could look at the video of your attempt and tell you what would help. Powerloops are easy, but learning them is hard because often you can't get any useful information from your camera feed when staring at the sky. Let me know if I can help :)

I guesd I was already going slow but whatever, you get what I mean

The drone doesn't really matter, its how you fly it. Its a Hyperlite Flosstyle frame with 6 inch props. Emax Eco2 2207 motors 1800 kv if you are curious.

@@Totokoi1 where can I buy one

@@Mooshroom257 I built it, you can't buy it anywhere. Unless you want me to build you one lol, I have done 4 commissioned builds for people and everyone says they love their aircraft. I recommend you look into an Iflight Nazgul Eco, its a prebuilt drone that comes ready to fly. DefianceRC has the Nazgul for $215 which is actually a great price. Let me know if you have any questions, I have brought multiple people into the hobby and will answer any questions you have. Just comment any questions. :)

@@Totokoi1 I really wish I could get into it but I just can’t do it. It’s way too expensive for my age and I could never fly and fpv drone. It’s way different than a normal photography drone

@@Totokoi1 thank you for the offer though. And if I ever feel as if I can do it and I can afford it I will reach out

Thank you very much!

Thank you

No You keep It up!🤘

Thank you! We were in a hurry and I had half battery left, not much to dive in Indiana
