[RELEASE] PSPSeq 2.00 - synthesis and sequencing for musical composition on the PSP!

hi - i'd like to announce version 2.00 of PSPSeq. this is a continuation of my work to design a software synthesizer and sequencer for creating music on the PSP. some of the new features in 2.00 include:

* 4 new synthesizers (2 FM, square wave with configurable PWM, and WAV sample-playback)
* over a dozen new waveforms for virtual analog synthesis
* 1 new FX (waveshaper) + enhancements to existing FX
* WAV file recording of songs and loops
* GUI/control improvements to increase compositional speed and flexibility
* 2 visualization modes
* add & delete instruments from a song
* core synthesis optimizations to improve polyphony

PSPSeq can be downloaded here:

PSPSeq should run on most homebrew enabled firmwares, including 3.03 & 3.10 OE.

two songs are also online to demonstrate what can be done with PSPSeq:

also, i have set up a user's forum for PSPSeq at http://groups.google.com/group/pspseq

enjoy!

Thanks!!! I will try it tonight.

cool, downloading now

sounds like a cool app. would be good to use on my lunch breaks at work for creating melodies then transcribing them into FLStudio!

This sounds like a good application. I'll download and give it a go.

or for saving the loops/songs as wavs and importing the rendered audio directly... or for composing songs all by itself! ;)

if you're familiar with FLStudio you'll probably like PSPSeq. FL is the PC music making app i'm most familiar with and it certainly influenced the program in a few ways. one thing i wish was that there was some sort of cross-compatibility between PSPSeq and FL but, as far as i know, the FL guys don't release the file format for saved sequences (and seem to change them with every release) so i don't see that happening any time soon.

Very cool, definitely worth a shot! More feedback later--

Yes! I'm looking forward to this sequencer since it was release! It was like a year ago. I remember i was on firmware 2.0 :D

over a year ago even! think it was end of january for the 0.00 (heh) release. i was 1.5 then, am on 1.5 now. :)

Very nice music app. I'm a Jazz/Ska Saxophonist myself so I'm not too familiar with all this synthesizing and all but it looks like something that would be fun to learn.

eh doesn't matter what instrument you use, just put everything on the up-beats and i'm sure you'll feel right at home. ;)
