    Not much call for it, but here goes: Open up an instance of PSYN II, and Initialize a patch under the Disk icon. Disengage the sine oscillator, and enable the internal noise waveform instead. In the default settings of the amplitude EG [A}, raise the release slider to full up [10 seconds]. Enable another EG, with the Depth at full and the Dest set to Cutoff 1. In the EG, set the Decay to maximum, and the Amt to -100%. Filter one's Cutoff and Resonance are at maximum as well.

    Enable an LFO with the Depth and Speed sliders about halfway. As with the EG, the Dest is Cutoff 1 at full Depth. Pressing any key will freak out the filter, and releasing it will spray whipped cream all over the place. Not as tasty as "The Girl from Ipanema", but this should serve as a starting point for further explorations into P5 toppings. HTH.

    brilliant!

    now, is there a way i can make a sound like a head of lettuce?

    don't ask why i want a head of lettuce with whipped cream.

    it's building to something quite marvelous though.

    Hmm. Romaine, or iceberg? Same basic patch without the filter modulation. Initialize patch; noise instead of sine; filter Cutoff & Reso up full. Go to the default [A] EG, and lower all the sliders except Decay amd Amount, which are up to maximum. Enable an LFO, but this time set the Lev 01 to a full Depth as a Destination. An extra-crispy head can be realized with a RND waveform in the LFO, and a full Depth and Speed slider. Play a few staccato notes to crack the head, and reintroduce that sine waveform to get the tapping sound of a near-empty bottle of dressing. HTH.

    I'm not sure what they prefer to eat as a group. I'd heard it was doughnuts. As for the 'sound' of cake, I'm unfamiliar with that, because I try to avoid sweets. I think we'll have to wait for the upcoming update in Q1 of 2007, or call in Emeril LaGasse.

    I'd say it's a strat through a twin, with a nasal vocalist and a trumpet player.

    Personally, I find that to be an appropriate choice; certainly better than many other band names. Organic, rough, and the old association to money come to mind. There's a long association between contemporary music, and fruits & vegetables. I'll hold out Fiona Apple and the Banana Splits as two prime examples.

    And who can forget the the influence of the potato (potatoe in Quayle-ese) on modern music? Potato Death secured a Grammy equivalent for Killiminogg. For more world-famous examples of Spud Stompin' tunes (as defined by Ishkur), click here.

    Now, as for PSYN fries ...

    This is far too vegeterian for me. How's about the sound of sizzling mutton? Heavily seasoned with decimation?

    Depends on the Chef, :10: is top dog for it, he manages to subtly blend youthful angst with distortion to disguise mystical melodies and half-heard whispers which are far removed from just sticking any old cut in a frying pan.

    If you don't like mutton there's a secret recipe for Sheeps Head Soup floating about somewhere. I believe it's a Canadian speciality.

    How very poetic of ewe.

    I didn't actually get this post at the time, but since hearing some of the Herb Alpert remixes on NPR I was immediately drawn into the possibilities myself!

    Maybe Rene would have an organic expansion pack for Dim Pro

    Or, to cover both vegan and meat-eating users, a whole new unit -- Omnivore Pro...

    Cheers,

    I have retired them both in favor of this more "up front" one. As I expect you've noticed, the P5 developer's blog just got started. It is currently rather austere, but it will be fleshed out considerably in the next week or so.

    Great answers, everyone. I laughed, I cried ... and now I'm starving.
    How's about the sound of sizzling mutton? Heavily seasoned with decimation?
    As you know, Sheep, I'm not to happy with the frying pan feature set in PSYN II, but I'll try.

    Initialize patch. Disable the sine and enable the noise in OSC 1. In the "A" EG, bring up the Release to maximum.
    Stereo Delay: Time L&R to minimum; Feedback, Tone and Level to midpoint. Drive around 20%; Level around 50%. Season to taste.
    If the mutton is frozen, enable the Hard Drive. If thawed, set it to Tube. If road-kill, Soft is your best bet.

    Enable all three LFO with a noise waveform. All destinations are Level 01 and Cutoff 01 at full Depth in the Modulation section.
    LFO 1 at maximum Speed/full Depth. LFO 2 at midpoint Speed/full Depth. LFO 3 at minimum Speed/full Depth.
    FLT 1 is problematic. Cutoff position hardly matters; try minimum. LP12 sounds like Sean's car. HP12 sounds like Buddy Rich on crack. BP12 sounds like Darth Vader on crack. The best all-around mutton setting is BR12.
