Re: Horror Atmos

> someone else suggested CA5000 which I've had for a long time 

You should really try to get more use out of CA5000.

FYI:  I use CA5000 on an iBook G4 (bought right before they went to 
Intel).  It seems to be very memory/processor inefficient and I've had 
to deal with more Logic/Mac crashes with CA5000 than any other app or 
plugin I've used.  Its one redeeming quality for me is its flexibility 
in sound design, even if it's nothing but sine waves and noise 
generation.  I'd never use it live in realtime.

HOWEVER...  If I really needed it for realtime performance, especially 
for more complex sounds, I'd sample about two or three octaves by doing 
an offline bounce.  Even my iBook can handle 30 second samples live, 
which makes CA5000 invaluable in creating new instruments.  Many of my 
CA5000 programs are missing the fundamental, so I usually mix a little 
ES E or ES P to fatten up the sound a little bit.  Again, good luck in 
achieving this live with my setup.  This might not be necessary for you 
if you're creating "horror" atmospheres, but it's worth checking out.  
Resampling some complex instrument models can help streamline some of 
your work and make your new programs and sounds easier to work with.
