sonicLAB has announced the release of an updated version of its test tone sine-wave generator with stochastic modulators.
Fundamental 4 features an accessible AI Large Language Model (LLM), allowing for control over synthesis parameters through natural language.
By using natural language prompts, the AI LLM can translate and unlock the ability to compose sonic gestures that go beyond manual control. This is the “HAL9000” component which sonicLAB has promised since v1!
Changes in Fundamental 4
- An AI LLM interface offered with a token based Pay-as-you-go system. No subscriptions.
- Graphical and script based output support user interaction.
- You can save the AI prompt and its interpretation along with presets.
- A dedicated preset bank with LLM prompt examples is offered for demoing the AI implementations as a reference.
- It comes with a comprehensive manual to give the user as much as preparation as possible to communicate with the AI and to optimally use the tokens.
- Improvements made on the classic Fundamental user interface, easier manual frequency assignment and new added graphical components.
Priced £99 GBP, Fundamental 4 is available as a standalone app for Windows and Mac, and in VST3 and AU plugin formats. The update is free for Fundamental 3 users. AI access requires tokens which are available to purchase in the sonicLAB shop for ~$3 USD (500K tokens for 150-200 AI prompt requests). A new license purchase of Fundamental 4 includes 500K tokens by default.
