sonicLAB
has released Cosmosƒ Saturn v3 – a ‘phenomenal’ update to their advanced stochastic synthesizer for Windows and Mac.
Features:
- Cosmosƒ is a real-time dynamic stochastic synthesis engine, which generates sonic textures with a complex event distribution process.
- Discrete sonic events of certain density are distributed in a time space with their onset time and duration parameter calculated with stochastic /deterministic functions.
- Each macro event defines the duration of a meso space, and the sub events are distributed inside it.
- The event distribution engine of Cosmosƒ is a hierarchical embodiment of multiple time scales.
Here’s a video intro:
Pricing and Availability
Cosmosƒ Saturn v3 is available now, for Windows and Mac, for € 169,00. The update is free for registered users.
That price isn’t very stochastic.
Affordable if looking for inspiration as a musician. For the ‘free economy’ and ‘ipad generation’ anything over $50 seems like a crime. For the rest of us, we’re more interested in what it *does” vs *the price*. I’m buying a copy, but then I’m a weirdo.
If the price was $11,374, it would be more stochastic.
For the amount of work that went into the interface alone, the price is certainly not unreasonable.
Yup buying it!
funnily enough, if it was an iPad app, I would pay $50 but for something that runs on my desktop I’ll have to ponder on it a bit.
The link to the product page didn’t work. Also, if I buy this can I put it on two devices (laptop and desktop)?
