To vote something like this one at 5 is an insult. I would love for people here on this forum to understand that there are different things that goes into a demo. It can be very nice design and flow and also hold good code or good ideas or they can be something else or what ever. This demo is not a five, like maniacs of noise is not a two or our demo another beginning is not a four five or even six(they all hold elements that do them great and far more than those lame down votes)... please respect other peoples trade and do look beyond what you absolutely dig, please see that a lot of effort can be done without you loving it that much but still you would know what an awesome accomplishment it is on a machine that is under 1 Mhz fast, holds 64 of total ram(not all available) and really is a dinosaur of a computer... please... please show that you are grown enough for the task to be members here at this forum... We all do something super weird and this demo is weird, to do this on a c64 in the year 2010 is absolutely true scene splendor.
Mahoney: I voted it a nine but that is just because I think one could have some more design in the demo, still it is almost there at 10 but as said... there could be some gradient colors in the bars or something more... even I know this demo were not about splendid graphics in a way. |

| this is not a demo? dude. read what HCL wrote. this release isnt only a demo - it's the core idea of "demo", reduced to the max. |

Nicely done indeed. Kudos for sample packing alorithm.
I miss the fact SounDemon hasn't been anywhere mentioned for the 8bit samples replay routine. |

| Yes.. ..and if anyone has a copy of Pro-16, I would be interested in having a look at it. :) It seems to be unavailable on the net (not part of TOSEC etc etc). |

Cubase was released for the C64 in 1984 by Steinberg itself. They named it Pro-16
and it was a very early version of Cubase Midi Sequencer. |

A jaw-dropper but in the "top demos"?
Sorry, but no! |

Back in the 80's, a text screen and a music ripped from a game would be called a demo. Perhaps ppl of today are used to other demo styles..
This is more than awesome btw. Total SID ownage! |

| Best surprise of demo compo. I'm really impressed. Since it's in a demo category, I'd expect more and that's why I'm giving a 9/10 instead of 10/10. For instance, after demonstration of what it is, we could have listened a short tune created with its features. |

Innovative indeed. If you read the whitepaper you will see that there are various techniques used to achieve the affect without having to resort to using transforms.
The constant pitch conversion via matlab i assume ensures that the waveforms remain similar to each other throughout the entire sample ensuring that the chosen chunks can recreate the speech in high quality in conjunction with the pitch info saved with the stream. the waveforms left would contain the basics of the vocal tract without pitch changes etc
Vocoder effect created without using the pitch info hence barely any additional cpu time required. timestretching using the playback, offset skip method.
Great work and Its this type of programme that show what people can achieve on such a limited machine such as the c64.
So tempted to release my audio technique now but will have to wait till darn demo is complete..

An awesome technical effort, stunning tour e force in coding skills. Working for years with music production and DSP it is hard not to appreciate it! Now, would it be too much to kindly request a Buzz clone for the 64? ;)
That being said, I think such pieces of software really need a separate category. Don't ask me how it should be called (no idea), but it certainly feels weird for me, when I see it topping "Tower Power" in the lower right corner of this page. For your CSDB moderators consideration ;) |

My favorite from the compo, since it seems to be the most innovative one, although I know nothing about sound. But it definitely sounded impressive.

| I love the white paper. Seriously, that combined with the pure awesomeness of the demo is just ... it's like getting a copy of the disk with a custom disk sleeve. (Which I only got my first of these at X2010.) |

This is way more than awesome! IMHO the best work on c-64 so far :)
I guess that the formant synth or at least a chord generator is the next thing in line, right? THCM, Mahoney, Soundemon, rest? |

Greetings to Mahoney!
@Mahoney: An interesting step to take would be to make some sort of sound synthesis inspired by this work, so one could make tunes. I mean, this is of course based on heavy analysis of an original input .wav, but I guess one could also change the approach slightly and not try to mimic "real" sounds, and instead make a few parameters controlling the "formants" etc with sound tables a la c64 music editors? :) |

This one was a killer for me. State of the art.
When You realize Linus, that this is a vocoder, the truth is more shall i say... possible to take and not to freak out seeing this. But still... sweet piece of code. |

| Incredible. Real time timestretching on a 1mhz machine? You gotta be kidding. Unbelieveable. |

| This is really some insane shit going on right there, realtime audioprocessing on the c64 is just unbelievable! 8) That said, it still is a tech demo and I think the Lepsi and Arsenic Demos should have placed higher than this... |
