Interesting; because of my background in the genre IDM (AKA Braindance) I'd always assumed everyone would assume it was a corruption of "Braindance", playing on the use of graintables. Funny how much preconceptions alter what we think. :)

And now everyone knows about my secret past as an Irish step-dancer. ;)

I do wish I'd participated. ...in the sound design contest, not the step-dancing.

pretty f*kin cool patches guys.

Well, It was pretty easy to pick out two patches here but tough choice from these two. One has excellent example from its developer, but another provided better tweakability (with three knobs and modulation) when I played with it yesterday. Hard decision, but finally made my choice for tweakability, although another one is probably even better match to the name given.

Voted for Timo

Man, that's just the Graindance I imagined it should be!!!!

Thank you all for this little fun.It´s nice to hear all.

@Timo, your Access Virus (Indigo-b) rocks very cool.
Some people think the b is the best of the series.I don´t know why but i think it´s because of the easy to used filter-section with paralell/serial buttons and the envelope knobs.


And i must say the Classic b is very very sexy:)

Another very close race. Last day of voting today, make it count!

And the 7-day polls have elapsed!

The winners for this round are:

Plasmatron: Shortbus [Plasmatron mp3] [patch] [Virus TI OS v2.7)
Graindance: Timo [Graindance mp3] [patch] (Virus Indigo mk1)

A very close running competition all the way through. A really amazing and diverse set of patches, well done to everyone who entered.

Again all of the patches entered (Graindance & Plasmatron) are compiled into one bank and are available for download here: [Graindance & Plasmatron Bank] (right-click, "Save as..")

Shortbus, if you want to PM myself I'll pass your details onto Marc in order to receive your prize. :) Well done.

Massive thanks to everyone who entered and voted. Hopefully we can do this again at some point, or make it into a regular event? Post your thoughts!

The reason went with a varying speed pulse sound was because Plasma made me think of guns or ghosts(ectoplasm) so I ended up with kinda a ghostbusters pulse canon bass. Congradulations to Timo on his patch. Thanks to everyone for their patches and votes. Next patch name should be "Infekted"

+10.000
Great Idea!

What about "contest time" once a month...?
