This is so funky!! Total groove - love it and can 100% feel the sine waves. How'd you do the vocal synth?

FEEL IT!!!

Nice! It's not that hard, just time consuming. Grab some text-to-speech from where ever, I used Google's text demo in the link above, but you can use Siri, or that horrible TikTok voice if you want. 15.ai is nice when it's available. Then throw it into a pitch editing software, I used FL studio's Newtone, but Celemony Melodyne works, there might be a few others. Then just adjust the timing and pitch of the notes, which is time consuming. My suggestion to make it slightly faster is to record a dummy track with you singing, use that the guide you as you slice your audio roughly into the right place in your playlist or multitrack DAW of choice, then render that edit and work with that in the pitch tool. Both tools are not very fun to use, so the closer the timing is to the final result, the faster it will go. With Newtone, you can also use a midi keyboard to pitch the words as it plays, which also speeds things up. There are other ways to mess with the pitch and vibrato in the program, but that should get you started. Hope this helps!

Nothing gives a thing that 80s gloss like digital toms, and I am loving these!

I'm also feeling this message. The closer to the sines I am, the closer I feel to my music. I keep fantasizing about someday finding one of those old 70s additive synth prototypes and selling the rest of my gear.

Except the FM stuff. That’s all sines too ;-)

Those always looked really fun to play with! But you are literally typing on a machine that is several magnitudes more powerful than those old machines! Still, if you see one in a garage sale, nab it for sure! Anywho, I highly recommend getting into sine based FM synthesis (I also use noise osc because it's very practical, but sometimes I make noise with sines). It's really opened my eyes to how sounds and instruments work at the most basic level, I feel like I understand them much more intuitively now!
Glad you like the toms, they are always hard to pass up!

A fine thank you!

One of my first tracker mods ever was back in the 90s using the Alf laugh as an instrument. I'm proud to say my music hasn't matured much since then.

I think "thought-provoking" is being a bit generous! But thank you! I was actually planning on the track being way more funky, but it did what it wanted to do!

More math puns? You both must be identical cosines! Sorry, went off on a tangent!
