Really nice, I've been playing with your code to make an automatic generator of weird FX sounds. I'm going to change the setup so it's a static SynthDef, with the routine selecting arguments to change the waveshapes though.

@tommaisey don't forget to post!

William Mox Drossard user 22 Aug'12 10:28

@tommaisey Thanks ;) Looking forward to seeing changes you've made to the code.

I love just listening to this! Thanks

Really cool! Love the rhythm and timbres.
