Well, that's a bit of a stretch. I said that there was virtually
nothing new in terms of how the building blocks of synths are wired
together. But that's a long way from saying everything is the same. A
V-Synth doesn't sound like a KS4 doesn't sound like FM7 doesn't sound
like an AN1x doesn't sound like a Triton.
In terms of timbre, there are lots of new things out there, but
they're built into the same structure so they're easy for people to
understand. Remember I said that we could consider the tone generator
(oscillator) as a black box? There are many different black boxes out
there and they all sound different to some extent or another. But
there aren't many truly radical new synth structures, unless you roll
your own.
>I'll Check Out Max/MSP .
Have fun. I've been avoiding it for 15 years now; I have friends who
are really good at it, but I don't have the time to rewire how my
brain works. It's not just different, it's REALLY different.
