Description

HENONSYNTH is a complex multi-purpose Synth Instrument and Effect/Modulator based on strange attractor's quadratic mapping. The synth’s algorithm generates a quasi-unlimited quantity of strange attractors that allow you to control different modules and to combine them. Three Modules are available : 1# a 2x Oscillators Synthetizer, 2# a MIDI Sender and 3# an Ableton Live API’s Controler. Calculated values from the quadratic system are used to feed these Modules to create a wide range of auto-generated sounds.

QUADRATIC SYSTEM

Coefficients used by the iterative quadratic sytem.

SEQUENCER

A step-sequencer driving the algorithm computation.

GRAPH / MAP

Two-dimensional graph that displays the X and Y values calculated at each step.

FEEDERS MENUS

Menus that allow you to feed the Modules with different computed values.

MODULE #1 | SYNTH

2x Oscillators with ADSR, Filter Env. ADSR, Frequency Shifter, Crusher, Reverb and Equalizer.

MODULE #2 | MIDI SEND

Send MIDI Notes to 2x Outputs.

MODULE #3 | GRIPS

Take control of Ableton Live’s parameters and modulate them. First one (left) is free, second one (right) is controled with computed values.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

• PRESETS : Write & Load presets file

• MATHS : Calculate the sequencer steps in function of the Live Set’s BPM

• DATA : Get the Map Coefficients and boundaries in simple .txt format

• R POINT : Additional point used in calculations

• VALUES : A simple reminder of the different computed quantities

MIDI RECEIVER

Put this device on any MIDI track and choose the Receiver (according to the Output) to get Note, Velocity and Duration from the HENONSYNTH.

A full documentation file.pdf is included with the device.
