Turning to a New Page

It has finally happened. I've reached a point where I'm good enough at mixing that I had to go back and delete all my uploads to the instanets and replace them with better-quality versions of themselves. I owe this to the fact that I've developed a couple of programs that process sound files, tweaking the loudnesses of sine wave partials and repositioning these sine waves in stereo space to make for clarity and balance. I also downloaded a program that fixes instrument mistuning. Mistuning is a near-universal fact in music, with almost all instruments possessing small or even highly noticeable deviations from proper 12-tone equal temperament. The program I downloaded fixes this issue. Taken together, these three factors--loudness tweaking, respositioning sounds in stereo space, and fixing mistuning--have taken the quality of my music to a substantially higher level (I'm particularly pleased with the tweaking of sine wave positions in stereo space, as the idea behind it is highly original and yields interesting, results; for example, instruments can frequently be heard moving or teleporting across the stereo field in an effort to find their ideal positions).

Below are a few pieces that make use of this new technology I've acquired.

I have revised the program's workings considerably, to much improved effect. Here, have a fugue of sorts, a canon, and a miscellaneous piece.

I fixed a major issue in the workings of the program. Now, the continuity of the transitions has been more or less perfected, and the sound quality is, as a result, vastly improved. I think, at this point, it sounds about as polished as it needs to be. I have one other idea floating around in my head, but I'm not sure I'm going to pursue it. Maybe, maybe not.

Here are some samples:

There, I've done it. I fixed the last issue, which was stereo wobble. Now the right and left ear are always balanced, to what I think is very pleasing effect. Here are some samples. Be sure to put on your headphones to enjoy the fruits of my labor.
