12:14 Correction , fm is more phase modulation instead of phase distortion , the latter is used in the casio cz series . Phase distortion actually distorts the ramp wave which reads a cosine wave . Phase modulation doesn't distort anything it shift the phase of the sine in the lookuptable , and I've noticed that even reason got it wrong on the thor synth . Thor's cz oscillator is called phase modulation while it should be called phase disortion and the fm shoudl be called Phase modulation . Also , modal synthess is nothing more then verry steep tuned bandpass filters , reaktor has a modal bank that can have 10'000 bandpass filters , hoz about that :)
How do you think this compares to Chromophone? Also am I right that with most synthesisers one can achieve physical modelling effects and that this sort of synth just makes it a lot easier or is there specific technology in here not accessible in subtractive/additive/FM synthesis?
Hey man, I answered the comparison Q a few times in the video. Technically PM could be done with anything - so long as you can control the resonating delay times to match key follow - good luck with that in most situations. So, in practical terms, Objekt makes things way more practical. As for comparison to Additive/FM etc, also covered in the video :-)

Love the screaming banshee! Are you publishing your patches anywhere?
Sorry, I don't :)

your so very reserved in your perspectives.
and now I know why it is recommended to never seek advise from Elves.
