Hi Phil and all, long time no write!

After a lengthy break I have taken the liberty of re-joining CNFractal and time permitting  hope that I will again become a regular contributor both musically and in the groups discussions.  

I am soon entering my final year at university (a Bsc in New Media Technology) and my final project will be the production of a CD along with all the accompanying packaging, website etc. and so I am really looking forward to getting involved in computer generated composition again!

Much has changed since the last time I was here. I have been spending a lot of time experimenting with some new software, namely Guenter Haglar's 'X-Wheel of Fortune' range and Intermorphic's 'Noatikl', but have to say that  by comparison nothing comes close to the scope and control (not to mention fun!) offered by some of the earlier programs, most notably the wonderful 'Tangent' and 'Gingerbread', which I am having a great time re-discovering.

Does anyone know what he situation is regarding the registration of 'Tangent'? I still have a working copy but no longer have my registered .zip and unfortunately the laptop that 'Tangent' is on has seen better days and might die any day, so I would very much like to purchase another copy.

I also was wondering if anyone out there (Bob Van Belle? :0) might be able to send me the .rhy and .mel files that act as templates in the old but still groovy Jazz++?

By the way, anyone interested in a VST of the old VCS3 synthesizer (which has the capability to produce random(ish) pieces all by itself) should check this site out.

My favourite synth,  this emulation is phenomenal and it expands the original synthesizers concept by adding polyphony along with a CV/Gate sequencer for all the Tangerine Dream fans out there!

Cheers

Carlos

Carlos,
I am not Phil, and not really a member, thought I was removed. But good luck on computer generated "music".....

Carlos, what's your private e-mail address? I could send you a working Tangent install file ... having received not a single sign of life from Paul Whalley himself. I will look for Jazz++ files as well, later.

Regards,

Carlos,

Go to the cnfractal_music files section.
Next open the Tangent folder.
At the bottom, you 'll find a file called T_install.zip.
That's the one.

Download ASAP because I will delete it soon afterwards, not knowing if Paul Whalley would really appreciate this action ... so tell me when you got it!

Greetz,

Bob.
