UnitOvOne presents its first in the series of Tupp-ware software, Tone Cluster, an OSC-controllable additive sinusoidal tone-producing app.
Tupp-ware is a series of audio tools available for free made by one of our members, John Tamm-Buckle who runs Kvist Records. We plan on releasing a series of these different software tools, as well as small runs of hand made audio toys soldered by myself later this year.

Tone Cluster gets its pitch and amplitude info from an analyzed audio signal – either from a line in, or from a soundfile (.wav or .aiff). This is translated into sinusoidal partials (layered sine waves). There is a sort of “signature sound” – very synth-paddy and sine-wavey (because that’s what it is…
, but playing with the parameters can produce a range of subtle and not so subtle changes. Modulation allows for a bit more variety. The whole thing is written in Max/MSP, and at the moment is only available for Mac OSX. A Windows version is on the way, but due to some Mac-exclusive third party externals there’s some working around to be done first…
Features include:

If you like this program, please consider donating some money. John Tamm-Buckle has worked hard on it and your donations will help ensure that he keeps working on this and other programs. Thanks!
For audio examples, download link, and ways of donating head on over to unitovone.com and check it out.

Let us know what you think about what we have done so far, as it's just the tip of the iceberg with loads of more music, software, and DIY hardware just on the horizon.

- Up to 127 layered sinusoids in 2 channels; as few as 1 per channel.
- Input from line in/soundfile.
- Semi-random partial selection (a partial is a frequency-amplitude pair).
- LFO and random modulation controls.
- Record your output (to .wav or .aiff).
- Includes iPhone/iPod Touch layout for TouchOSC, so you can control the program from your iPhone/iPod Touch (but you must have the Touch OSC app first to use this…
- Fully documented OSC routings in a text file – create your own controller interfaces! Compatible with any OSC enabled sequencer. More info about OSC (including links to software controllers) here.
