Sounds like spectral shifting of some other analog source. I got a kind of similar sound once, quite by accident, after messing around with pvshift on a feedback-delay line.

Heh, just now read the description, sounds about right.

hi all,
          i tried to synthesis a sound similar to this one: 
http://www.freesound.org/samplesViewSingle.php?id=48662

with fof and granule. no results at all. anyone has any idea of what may be
the opcodes/combination of opcodes and more or less their parameters to get
a sound of the type in that file? thanks in advance

Any sound with too much reverb and a low-fi sample conversion (and  
cliping!) will end up sounding like that!!

Joking apart, I would also agree with some sort of spectral frequency  
shifting plus spectral blurring. Maybe a phase-vocoder analysis of a  
cello sample (with the bow pressing right into the string) would be a  
good sound to start sculpting with. So maybe you can start with  
physical modeling of a stringed instrument (say violin), then  
transpose it down before adding the spectral effects. I would also  
look at Mammut which has lots of spectral blurring-like effects.

I have also got similar results from fof synthesis with the bandwidth  
set very low (and using something like 20 formants). This is with  
Ircam's chant which I believe is very similar to the csound fof  
opcode but I haven't tried the csound one so wouldn't be sure.

Best
Peiman
