When Ligeti wrote microtones they were based on the harmonic series. Like a major third that's a little bit flat. That was mostly in his later works, from the...
Hi John, Debussy is a good place to start, much more relevant than 16th century counterpoint and Bach chorales IMO, which is where you usually start in music...
Brian: Thanks. I have some books that analyze some of Debussy's works. Without a doubt he seems to stand at the crossroads. I think Messiaen is also such a...
Brian, You made me think of the old joke: Q: What's the definition of a minor second? A: Two violinists playing in unison. I've always loved the sound of...
Thanks John! It may be a while before I get to play with this, but I appreciate it. BTW--I couldn't download "Gyorgys Lament" because the download count has...
Wow: I did not expect to get so many requests for downloads. I guess we have a lot of lurkers. Speak Lurkers! Anyway, here are another twenty downloads. I...
As some of you may know, I have been searching for a guitar controller for a long time. I hate and always will hate pitch to MIDI convertors with a passion....
I teach film scoring at a college here in Melbourne. There are a couple of composition books I think are quite good. Musical Composition by Reginald...
"I asked him what he used and he says that they just study the music of different composers without a text. I am sure there are still good ones out there but...
Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is what I have been looking for. There are relatively few books out there on composition and most of the ones I can find...
You won't find anybody commenting about Kore2 and Absynth; Kore 2 hasn't been released yet. I use Kore1 with Absynth daily; it works great. ew ... From:...
Cage could love the approach. But I guess in some ways, I am still a bit retro or neo-classical or whatever you want to call it. Truth is, that there are a...
I just checked out some of Penderecki's work especially his work on Hiroshima. Really interesting stuff. Very atonal but interesting and yes, similar to...
Both Sibelius and Finale are notation software, they replace your hand as the main tool for writing something down. There's not so much composition help in...
Lux, Just wanted to say that this has been a very useful discussion for me, also. I've just ordered the Russo and Smith-Brindle. I'm currently listening to...
I hope it happens for me to. Good luck in your composing efforts. To be honest, if I had the time I would love to take some courses at a good music program at...
Dear Absynth-Users, I invited Mr. Aliferis to post this information as a service to the group. I've actually purchased and downloaded his collection of...

I've posted a '.pdf' document reviewing a patch library I recently purchased for Native Instruments Absynth. The developer of the patch library is a fellow...
Hope you find the books useful and stimulating. As far as the Ligeti/ Penderecki thing and being able to emulate it using Absynth, Ligeti is a little more...
Brett: The best way to emulate this is to use granular sampling. While Absynth is not a full blown granular sampler, it does have some simple granular...
Hi Brett, In an oscil, under the uni tab, try: num voices: 8 trans: 1 rand trans: 0.5 (also you probably want to set the oscil phase button to "free"). This...
That true as well. I had not thought of that but yes, I use that all the time to to thicken sounds. John M. ... control ... diffuse. ... Ligeti/ ... Ligeti ...
Brian: I just wanted to post this quickly to encourage you to keep doing what you are doing with Absynth and other work. You carry on a long traditon or real...
