Kill Bill has a tune in its soundtrack by Ennio Morricone featuring a haunting and evocative whistling. This 'mini-synth' is designed solely to re-create that sound - just add reverb. This shepherd likes to whistle while he works. Features include:
very little really
just enough control over sound
just enough control over play.
Regula:
regula is my retrospective of the va model and includes a distortion effect created by multiplying the decimal portion of the sample value. it includes my multitemperament circuit for 67 alternate keyboard tunings, including non-western scales.
irregula uses a 17-tone pythagorean scaling used for maqamat, published separately to accomodate the 'octave overflow.' note that a dozen scales within this tuning scheme are included amongst the regula options.

The Porcelain Bunny is an intuitive stereo monphonic synth in the tradition of
the of the early synths used in house music.
You can generate multiple types of waveforms, and envelope them, and filter them
accordingly to achieve sweet basses, atmospheric leads, or just bizarre acid-rave
sounds. Slow the attack and you'll add rubbery tonal ambience to any soundscape, and
if you want to bang some hard miami sub action, the bunny gets down that way too.
By no means are you limited to these afore mentioned tones, but they can
effortlessly be achieved with the Porcelain Bunny VST Instrument from NYC
Sound Design.
