Forester

basically you can load in 6 short (8 seconds i think) samples which are then triggered and looped and pitched about based on your movement around the window. I can't quite work out exactly what the rules of the environment are but its very straightforward to play with and can sound fantastic if you have good samples. You can also load random snippets from CDs as your samples (this didnt seem to work for my friend on his PC but it worked on my mac).

A couple of times I managed to make a drum break loop/overlap in a really odd way but im not sure how i did it

He's just put up a windows version so everyone can join in the fun and laffs. Not sure if it works on intel macs. watch the youtube video (

by the way, samples can sometimes take a moment to start working properly in the 'forest' so give them a chance

nice app would be great if it was available as vst plugin

Very cool...the sound reminds me a bit of the DFX 'Scrubby' VST, though this is obviously far more complex and tweakable.

This should work on Intel Macs....will give it a shot tonight. Look forward to playing with it!

this is sweet! thanks for the scoop!

Holy shitola! Excellent, thank you

Badass.

I think for intel macs you have to run it through rosetta...

nice find though.. :)

Here's a track I've made using just this and a tiny bit of touching up in Live, just for laughs.

it does work on intel macs, infact i was playing with it with skytree tracks and it sounded fucking incredible.

here is an output i recorded a few weeks ago, cant remember the source mats but theres at least one skytree track used.

there are some really lovely bubbly crackly bits in there

yeah actually it works fine on intel macs. no rosetta necessary!!

Good find, thanks..fooled around with it llast night.
