  • I came.

  • looks interesting but how does one sequence all the parts? I'm used to ableton, is their an arrangement area like ableton?

  • I want to go there.... how can i buy/download/have this amazing looking software?

  • TBF though, that tune at the end is nice man.

  • looks like audiomulch no?

  • it looks great, i wanna try it out ;)

    Where can i download?? cant see it in audiogl.bandcamp.com :(

    awesome work :) is it still free? thx.

  • looks nice but... track from 10:58 is masteeeeeeeeerr!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D really nice Cybernetic Disco hehehee ;]

  • im going to have so much fun with this. While blazing, its all going to be fucking fantastic.

  • I can't even beginn to tell you how amazed I am. This is absolutely unbelievable.

  • Holy Guacamole!!!

  • Rad as fuck

  • i agree, this distorted mid range so called dubstep (which possess ZERO DUB and just a bit of step) is fucking my brain to pieces out of sheer boredom and oversaturation of something that was once so smooth and deep and fresh and now has LFO'd so far up its ass its juat now a sad and sorry pastiche. Regardless - im looking forward to using this software.

  • excited for us.. Hope this takes off like a rockit before the pole shift, ha. Seriously good luck

  • you should demo this with fresher fuckin music man wtf is this played out dubstep shit

  • @javaadqadir This is not even dubstep FYI... Anyway, this is a tech demo, not a music production demo. Just appreciate how you can morph signals easily. He's just using ONE oscillator... not tens of off-the-shelf VSTs ;-)

  • the similarity between the 3D views, and Oramics... awesome. Check this out if you aren't familiar with Daphne Oram, the girl that basically invented all-electronic music, way ahead of her time for sure. en.wikipedia DawT org/wiki/Oramics

  • Is this how TRON actually kickstarted?

  • It will revolutionize the market. There'a a supreme demand for a rich, adjustable built-in synthesizer. What more can you ask for than for AudioGL?

  • Shamazing

  • 08:27 Matrix :D

  • @digitaldreams1010101: According to his YouTube channel he wrote in November: "Quick Update: Development is going very well. Expect a large update in January."

  • holy fuck

  • por cierto! a esto sólo le falta una interfaz tactil para competir con reactable ;)

  • parece una mezcla de sonicBrith y maxMSP, brutal! felicitaciones!

  • If NI or Cubase or SOMEONE in the audio software business isn't all over this guy, they are insane.

  • It is really fantastic, I want it, but where is it? There is nothing on his site...8 months later and all you can do is to buy 2 songs?

    Did he get "bought out" by competition?

  • Incredible!

    

  • whoa! all i can say! i am amazed! 3d graphic sound!

  • You know how to make sexy tools, man!

  • Pretty cool!

  • Music in 3D! I WANT THIS SO BAD!

  • This is awesome. i just hope the text and sliders are (going to be) resizeable.

  • Awesome!

  • Awesome man!!! This is music-making 3.0

  • I will back you up in a kickstarter campaign, and so will my entire school (200+ students) probably! This is the next best thing, if Ableton and James Bond had a baby, this is what it would look like!

  • Comment removed

  • @samhuisman I guess you haven't heard of Max...

  • BEAST track!

  • Absolutely magic!

  • does this work for mac

  • I don't understand... if you've got it this close to working, do a pre-order. Post on KVR and let people buy and start using the "pre beta" version with the idea that they'll get the full version on release. Do an early adopter discount and you should get a big response.

  • @zerocrossing the minecraft/c.a.r.s model would kill with this seriously

  • sent this guy this message:

    "Hey, so I assume you already get hundreds of messages per day about this software. From what I can tell, lots of people want to get their hands on it.

    My only questions are:

    1. where can we find more info about this!?

    2. do you have the funding you need? (will a kick starter go up soon? etc)

    3. Did your project get picked up by a company and is currently in secret development?

    4. did you die? I hope not. This is a great idea! haha

    Thanks!"

    let's hope he responds!

  • but no vst or ?

    

  • You are my hero, when will we be able to get our hands on this?

  • Love it. Make it a Kickstarter campaign. Kickstarters don't take shares and let you do your own thing. I'd be in!

  • dude!

  • This is super ace, am not particularly good with the techy side of audio but I am curious, what OS platform / SW did you use to project the visuals in 3D space?

  • This is brilliant.. I hope you get a substantial investor, I'd love to play around with this finished product.

    Awesome idea!

  • hmmm... pretty nice electrocardiogram .....

    Good health.

  • 123

    

  • Its like Living inside TRON back in 1982! Amazing. I also wonder once this gets on its way if you could use a jazz mutant lemur or some kind of special kaoss pad with it as a controller, that would be pretty cool.

  • oh my fucking god

  • Good program but this is not music, just electronic farts to make dance hipsters friday night...

  • dude i cant stop thinking about how epic this whole thing would be to watch in 3d

  • HOLY SSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIE­EET!!!

  • HOLY. SHIT.

  • Anyone who disliked this really doesn't get audio tech - This is the most amazing piece of kit I've seen this year. Fair play, 10/10!

  • First of all, bravo for making this :) It requires an insane amount of brain, time and motivation to make this on your own. How much more work do you want put in this before you release it? I would love to try a beta build. Will there be any documentation?

  • Are you from the future?

  • Blew my mind!!!

  • AMAZING!! Wow!!

  • Great...!!!

    

  • I'm surprised that the demo song was actually really impressive unlike 100% of music tech demo songs that sound like they were made by a bald 50-year old man with dire taste in music. Really innovative stuff.

  • This is simply FANTASTIC!

    I hope you get the money, I buy one when it is available:) Thanx for the video and demo

  • OMG! Love it!

  • I just don't get one thing, is this a modular synth environment like Reaktor or this is a DAW?

  • when this hits 88mph....

    mighty fine work, hope you get all the backing you need dude

  • where can i buy this? is fucking awesome, this guy is the fucking einstein of music

  • The mind that created this is simply genious!

  • haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!

    unbelievable !!

    when i can use it ?

  • This is absolutely fantastic! I don't get people arguing over the 3D GUI: the most amazing thing is the whole sonic/programming concept... though I'm in love w/ Reaktor (& many other synths, like Zebra, SS2, etc.), still, personally, I'd love to get this thing ASAP! Would it be programable @ lower levels, again, a la Reaktor, @ some point? ...Still, as is, this sounds fantastic & I cannot wait to get this & use it... GREAT CONCEPT!! ...'CHAPEAU' ON AN ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC PIECE OF WORK!!

  • Simply the coolest thing I've ever seen. I dreamed about this kind of technology appearing, and you're making it happen. Great work.

  • beautiful!!!

    

  • Very Reaktoresque. What does GL stand for here? The name brings to mind Creative's Open AL from back in the day.

  • How much do you need?

  • Quite cool environment to work on/with.

    I hate those thin direct connecting lines with target points the size of a pinhead though, this is why I hate some of the current modular-based GUI solutions :/

    Thicker (weighted curved) lines, bigger origin/target points would get me more interested to the point of putting my money where my interest is.

    ...unless this is used on a multi-touch surface where zoom in/out is such a natural thing that sizes of objects and connections is almost irrelevant.

  • Have you thought about giving out an alpha release (with the caveat that will crash a whole lot) to interested artists? I'll bet professional audioGL demos (or tracks made therein) by electronica names would be a good fire under this project's rear :D

  • I take it this Audio GL will be proprietary.

  • This music software is about 2 109 787 239 423 049 lightyears before today's DAW software! Excellent work, excellent design, excellent idea, excellent sounding, excellent everything! I am so excited that Someone (yes, big letter for The Creator of AudioGL) bring to life this Extremely Innovative Perspective Of Sound Creation! Pure Genius!

    I am just earning money for that!

    Peace out brother!

  • This is pretty much the future of sequencing and modular synthesis on computers imo...

    This is like how I envisioned cyberspace as a kid, but in the world of music... it's so amazing i want it to be out now so we can make some techno in hyperspace ;D

  • Wow.... This project you are working on is absolutely amazing. I will most definitely be buying this program if it keeps up like this.

    This project might actually cause me to build a Windows machine..

    [Just wanted to ask, any interest in Linux release?]

    Amazing program

  • Wicked!

  • Thought for money.. let people invest a certain amount and be guaranteed an eternally updateable/upgradeable copy of your software. I would donate for this incentive.

  • I'm a producer with international releases and music in Hollywood films, I'd love to be involved in testing and promoting with for you

  • This is incredible. The GUI is so beautiful. Surely you're inundated with investment. If I had cash to invest I would...best of luck.

  • Please put this up on Kickstarter so I can give you my money.

  • @rigaudio I second this!!!

  • Also kinda wondering why there are as much as five dislikes on this video. I just can't understand why anyone in the world would give dislikes to this.

  • The looks and sounds - the whole style - seems insanely intriguing and interesting. I love the abstracticality that shines from this program and I would definitely want to try to generate something with it myself :)

  • what about vst support and midi support :)?

  • this wil lbe the next big thing.

  • Very Cool!!!!!!!!!!

  • Just awesome.

  • Really excellent stuff. The UI makes visceral sense as well as being beautiful.

    How do you *create* the automation though? Especially the very fast waveform changes -- I'm guessing those weren't drawn in the x-y window with the mouse.

  • This looks amazing! I'd definatly want to have this to make tunes on. Make it so!

  • This is amazing! 

  • i keep coming back & watching this, its just amazing.. someones got to give you some cash to release this, best of luck, need anything in 5.1, let me know ;)

  • This is awesome

  • What? Why are there four dislikes? If someone hated technology and music so bad, why were they on a computer looking up an audio program?

  • I'm not actually into Music Making. I'm amazed by the User Interface which is just brilliant. I can clearly see myself using this kind of design for many other areas besides Audio.

    I hope you get your your funding! Otherwise open a Kickstarter project and I will surely chip in.

  • Wow great tool !

  • Okay,

    i understand, how a guitar works, i understand how a drumkit works and i think i might have understood the idea of a synthesizer - but WOOOOHHAAAAA

    what is going on in your head?!

    It's not just the way you realized the whole thing but the idea!! man you're awesome, i think it just burned some synapsis - i have to watch the whole thing again...

    Brilliant!

  • you need a FACEBOOK page to keep people updated

  • This DEFINITELY looks like something I'd shell out reasonable money for. I've always wanted to make music but I had no real talent with any traditional instrument. Being able to automate a lot of the process really appeals to me.

    One the product is released, will you be providing tutorials on how to put together cool stuff like this?

  • Fucking brilliant. I hope this goes a long way.

  • Please, make it an AU plugins, and your sells will grow enourmously... Mac users haven't something like SynthMaker or other modular synths with an actrattive GUI.

    This would be amazing...

  • O MY GOD my day began just as awesome as I couldn’t even imagine.

  • I already want to give all my money to this guy.

  • @floba23 paypal account?

  • Certainly looks and sounds great. Release it open source and I'll give you a kiss!

  • I think you should approach Bangalter and Homem-Christo with this, to be honest. This sounds (pun not intended) like something that they would sponsor to the skies.

  • This is the most badass piece of software technology I have ever witnessed.

  • Awesome. If you do start a kickstarter im down!

  • i think this thing is a technical problem...

  • I think you should make a bussines model like minecraft. Give download for free but implement user logins that are handled by your server to use software. You will have to pay for login. You can start with lower price while still in alpha and up the price when development evolves towards release. :) It worked for minecraft why not for this, this is freaking awesome. Send previews to music magazines and you're set for promotion :)

  • The intro song rocked my socks off.

  • cool soft!!!...but___

    how the hell build a song with only one monophonic osc!

    please respond!!!

  • @psychothrophic2009 A ton of automation, cleaver arranging and lots of routing :P

  • @psychothrophic2009 He changes the oscillator waveform quite rapidly, that is what the 2d controllers does. And to spice things up, he split the signal to 10 channels. Look carefully after 9:00

  • @kowdermeister

    ...I may have some idea how to build it on different soft. eg. ableton.

    But really like to try AudioGL in real, any device(any OS)...even without touch-controlled options,

    ...

  • @psychothrophic2009 I was thinking to do the same with Reason :) I hope he gets funing as well to play with it.

  • @psychothrophic2009

    how's your progress with reason and one monophonic OSC as a source of sound man?

    ...and please tell me you're doing this in 'subtractor' :)

  • One of the best and most innovative concepts i've seen.

    This turns tables in computer music production and user interface.

    Congratulations!

  • this is brilliant dude, would luv to make music on this i n 5.1.. possible ?

  • I m Speechless.... INCREDIBLE STUFF.

  • I will pay for this. This looks brilliant! ETA?

  • Head on over to KVR VST forum members would be interested in rustling up some funding support.

  • If I could help fund this into commercial release I probably would. Never seen anything like this. phenomenal!!

  • パネぇw!

  • Add a KINECT interface for control and a big screen... that would be epic!

  • Now this is what i call the future of music making! Absolutely brilliant! 

  • I am expecting MIDI to be killed off by something like Pd/Max/SuperCollider any time now because of touch screen computers like iPad. Consider this as a synth authoring environment that actually runs on the iPad along side a highly playable interface.

  • Brilliant. I want it and I will help you realize this any way I can. I will talk to an attorney I know, highly connected, might be able to help w/ funding...

  • This is amazing. I'm not personally into electronic music, but as I was watching in fascination, all I could think of was what could I do with it!!!

    I would buy this if within a reasonable price

  • Awesome man. This looks pretty sweet. Let me know how I can support you and help you BETA test. ;-)

  • hands down, this is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Would certainly LOVE to see this software being taught here at Vancouver Film School as a part of a sound design course sometimes in the near future. Thanks for sharing!

    Matt

  • This is pure genius! You will have no problem at all getting financing! And when it's out, I'm buying it.

  • HOLY FUCK

  • This would work real nicely with a 3D mouse.

  • amazing in all aspects. congrats!

  • This software has a bright future for sure.

    I never knew that with one OSC you could do all that! I LOVE THAT TRACK, I want more! *track downloaded*

  • Can you make a video of how you build up a track with the automations? How easy it is to copy and paste sequences, can I record MIDI controls. This stuff is way beyond anything I've seen, so if you can compose fast with it, this will spread like a virus :)

  • So, kinect is starting to make sense :) With that you could create an amazing perfomance to record automations just by waving in the air.

  • This is incredibely AMAZING!!!

  • This looks and sounds fantastic, and I'm roundly impressed by the diversity on display here. I predict that this will be a successful product regardless of how it's funded.

    Also, who are you and where are your electronic music releases?

  • I still don't see what purpose the 3D view provides other than "eye candy". The producing interface is a fairly standard 2D modular interface with a nice 2D envelope editor. Nothing wrong with eye candy, but those interpreting this as an innovative 3D interface appear misguided. Nice tune though.

  • @analoq it looks like a good way to visualize 2D envelopes over time.

  • @noouch Doubtful. The best way to visualize 2D envelopes is in 2D, nicely laid out where they aren't obscuring each other due to camera angles or inconsistent sizes due to a non-orthogonal perspective. The 3D is a novelty, one which will wear off quickly for a serious producer.

  • @analoq What i mean is that you can visualize it ideally in 3D, because it's a curve that consists of X, Y, and time, which runs along the Z axis. Now the actual display may be questionable, but the basic idea is there.

  • @noouch The envelope generators are two dimensional. The XY controls would effectively be three-dimensional but unnecessarily so - things like volume/pan or cutoff/resonance are not always ideal to have their automation coupled.

  • @analoq It's cool. That's the purpose. Like using a Mac over a PC. The user experience is cooler, so you feel a little bit more special using it. Same as driving a Porsche over a Ford. Eye candy, feeling candy, speed candy, whatever you want to call it - the experience of using something matters.

  • @FuturLabVideo "Cool" doesn't matter much to a professional.

  • @analoq vision... you're actually "inside" your track and automation/notes are an integral part of the modules presence... the simple fact that you geometrically see the automation lines go through the module controls can add a lot of natural information to people well suited to deal and quickly grasp a lot of info that only space and dimensional information can provide at a glance (that's how our brain is usually wired in the rea<l world). And instantly getting visually appealing video track;)

  • @Koshdukai You can find another comment I made about that, there's really nothing here a 2D view couldn't visualize more efficiently.

  • @analoq well, differences of opinion that explain why all DAWs have their own customers because people don't think of feel (or work) alike ;)

    ...it's like working with a virtual representation of a rack of devices and missing the flip-to-the-back on some apps. Not allowing me to "go to the back and do the wiring" feels claustrophobic to me, but others don't complain.

    Allowing zoom out of 2D view of a set of objects and navigate towards another group from another angle may be helpful to some.

  • @Koshdukai Propellerheads' back-of-the-rack is a poor example because that feature provides routing usability that wouldn't be available otherwise. The 3D view in this application is a playback visualization; it doesn't allow you to do anything you couldn't otherwise do.

  • @analoq currently, from the videos, it allows me 2 things:

    1) Quickly navigate to one device and inspect the parameters while at the same time, at a glance see what's coming and what went through it, optionally, seeing that same data on the surrounding objects. quite difficult to accomplish this today on DAWs

    2) Instant graphically pleasing Video for your track if you want to publish it on Youtube ;)

  • @Koshdukai I'll give you #2 but #1 is available in just about every DAW software. e.g. in Logic you can easily view automation data for multiple tracks at a time, with the added advantage of not having them obscured by the camera's perspective or inconsistent sizes by a non-orthogonal view.

  • @analoq that's the problem... that info is sliced into 1 screen width, and only detailed enough as the screen height allows... you're looking at a sequence of pictures instead of a landscape.

    ...but, like I said initially, it's all about how people feel comfortable with, how their brain is wired and how these project can actually deliver on their promise. AudioGL, at this stage has some good GUI foundations, but still needs improvements, to be usable, at least from the video demos, IMHO.

  • @Koshdukai At this stage, the "problems" with the 2D view are less so than with the 3D "landscape". I don't see a genuine need being addressed by the 3D view and personally I don't think the developer is even attempting to address one. It may be cynical but I think it's just a gimmick to get attention and eventually profit from. Seems to be working so far.

  • @analoq I understand your view, and indeed, there's a certain amount of gimmickness to this that at least is attracting some attention while also doing a lot for the already mentioned instante video version of your track.

    I believe that the valid quite simple premise of AudioGL's GUI was: X/Y axis for generators and modulators and Z for data flow timeline. Quite a simple but powerful visual premise that can help or not data visualization oriented artists. Let's see wait and see, I guess...

  • @analoq ...it's a bit like jumping from 80x25 char single screen prompt line to multi-window GUI... it opens up a new dimension and quick glance at info, when/if well implemented, GUI-wise.

    You may end up doing exactly what you used to do when looking at 1 screen or not, depending on your modus operandi.

  • @Koshdukai Computers have been capable of 3D interfaces for quite some time and a lot of experiments and research have gone into them. There is a reason they haven't caught on and it is likely this software will ultimately serve as an example why.

  • @analoq I know... and I've been following a lot of those experiences... and this is yet another one that may or may not be usable, as a graphical environment.

    Currently having more accessible multi-touch surfaces may, eventually, help some of these 3D based paradigms, where natural zooming an panning movements are critical to make it usable.
