Today we will be discussing brass horn synthesis using
Massive but as always keep in mind that these parameters can be used in other
plug-ins to create similar sounds. This synth is going to use two oscillators
and two filters with a little bit of modulation.

Thermophone (the Carbon Nano Tube Loudspeaker)
What if I were to tell you that in the future magnetic cone speakers would be replaced by a paper thin cone with no electromagnets or any moving parts for that matter? Sounds like science fiction doesn't it? Well this could become a reality with some old but revisited theories regarding thermoacoustic energy transmission.

Show Me The Money
Welcome back to the Sound Synthesis Architect!
Yesterday I was reading an article posted by Erik Magrini of Inner Portal Studio entitled "Yes But You Have To Pay Me." In a nut shell, the article describes how success in the music industry takes vigilance and hard work which distances us from our friends and followers. The most unfortunate part of this is that it takes up most of our time and in turn we are no longer able to dedicate time to having discussions with fans and lose contact with our friends.

The 9 O'Clock Synth (aka the Funky Electro Stab)
Welcome back to the Sound Synthesis Architect!
Today we are going to create a funky electro stab in
Massive. I call this the 9 o’clock synth and you will soon see why. As always,
this can also be created using other VSTs that offer the same or similar
parameters.

Response to Going Deeper: 25 Hz is the new 50 Hz
Welcome back to the Sound Synthesis Architect!
I was recently reading an article, Going Deeper: 25 Hz Is the New 50 Hz, posted by Doug Fowler, a moderator of the ProSoundWeb LAB forums and professional audio engineer of 30+ years. In this article he talks about taking single-ended measurements of various forms of electronic dance music at Ultra Festival a couple years back.

Quiztones App Review
Welcome back to the Sound Synthesis Architect!
Today I wanted to introduce you guys to an awesome application that I found for my smartphone (yes, I finally caved and purchased a smartphone). I came across this great application called Quiztones (it is all one word if you were wondering if I typed it right) which is an ear training app for audio professionals to learn to identify specific frequencies.
