It just runs on their servers via a HTML view pane in the same interface as the 'news feed' panel.

If you don't open that HTML viewer panel, it doesn't use any CPU at all, and if you DO, it only uses the same as it would to display the news items even if you ask a question since it's entirely remote.

 

This is so advanced compared to my cubase 3 on atari =)

 

Ahh, since it can't hide from me, nuke it I will. The Cloud thing doesn't pertain to me, I'm all about sunny days.

 

The only thing that looks interesting is VFS Script

 

Isn't it VFX, not VSF?

 

Yeah, mistyped

So if any don't like the newfangled stuff, I have the best Fruity version for you: v2.1 Full, I think from around 1999 [Total size 3.6 MB] and just tested, still runs perfectly on Windows 10 ;)

 

Would love Macs to get this God help us

 

its not about being unable to find information in a pdf, its that the chatbot is much quicker and can "think" outside the box of the manual as well.

Fruity Loops - SimSynth v2.7 - Standalone - Win9xNT - Lord Cassandre

SimSynth 2.7 is a monophonic analog software synthesizer emulator. It creates sounds akin to the classic Minimoogs and Oberheim synthesizers. Like the Mini, it features a 3-oscillatordesign which drives a fat monophonic sound for bass, lead, and other sounds. It features a warm SVF Oberheim style filter too, overdriven by the oscillators for that authentic analog sound. And that analog sound is coming out at 16-bit, 44.1kHz stereo CD sound quality. SimSynth 1.0 was released back in 1994.

The current version, 2.7 has been integrated with FL Studio (formerly Fruityloops). SimSynth can function as a stand-alone applica- tion that generates .WAV files and/or presets that can be used in Fruityloops or any other digital audio application capable of handling .WAV files. That is, FL Studio will render and use all your SimSynth presets on the fly! SimSynth Live is a VSTi version of SimSynth for about the same price that works in real time from within FL Studio. SimSynth Live adds some new features such as un- limited polyphony, a simple step sequencer, everything syncs to tempo,(Envelopes, LFO's, effects, etc), real time MIDI control via Phatboy and/orkeyboard controllers, Reverb, a Phasor, and some decent Delay FX.Sadly, it doesn't have the drawable graphic envelopes or the sweeping filter on the delay, and there is no Macintosh support for the SimSynth.

Apologies for bumping this old thread, but this is hilarious. Fantastic that youtube does that!

As for FLStudio, I got started with "producing" back when it was called fruityloops? version 3.0 i believe.
I remember writing tunes with LinPlug Albino 2 and Novation V Station lol

Ye, FruityLoops 3.5.5 is the one I started with. The installer for the whole DAW was just 11MB.
Still have it flying around on my installer SSD and from time to time I run my old WinXP virtual machine
to load up my very 1st projects from back in the days.



Back in the days they also had individual icons which I liked very much.

The first synthesizers – that was something special – a whole new world!
