Martin, that's pretty good and a lot closer to how akihiko's sound than I've been able to get.
Hans I've downloaded the 'many' lib and I get this error when running the 200-voices patch
voicetest~ 0 0 $0 ... couldn't create $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9 ... couldn't create $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9 ... couldn't create $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9
in the main patch [voicetest~ 0 0 $0] doesn't create and the variables from 1-9 are in the [voices-wrap~] instances, I'm sure you knew that.

Hans, Thanks for letting me know about the 'many' lib, I'll check it out. And Martin I'll try out your patch asap. I think I read somewhere about a [polyosc~] object or it could be a figment of my imagination.

Also, it seems to me that I would need one oscillator per note, which is ridiculous if you want to make

isn't that CPU intensive.
it depends on the cpu. i have made a 'quick and dirty' cluster-synth patch (attached) with 192 not very (or at all) optimized oscillators, which produces about 20 percent load on my machine (3 ghz intel core). it should run on a atom-netbook. if you need more instances, it might be too much though. (and less voices do not sound that awful too...)
another possible approach i can think of would be using ifft as a oscillator bank. though it is probably not trivial to calculate the spectrum. (or you will have to use a very large blocksize, to get enough 'frequency-resolution')
bis denn! martin
