By definition, additive synthesis is nothing more than the summing of a series of sine waves under envelope control. Wendy Carlos used a mere four or five partials to create patches in the 80s and 90s, and that was most certainly additive synthesis. Yes, to be really potent and use FFT algorithms to analyze acoustic sounds and recreate or resynthesize harmonics, you need a lot of sine waves. But that's a nice extension of, not the definition of, additive synthesis. Besides, if you want a computer to do all the work for you, I think that's wimping out.

I have to agree. I'd love to see an additive engine on the OASYS which is on a par with the K5 or K5000.
Its all about envelopes - preferably one for each partial, and at least 32 partials.

judging from what I can read here, Kronos is already addictive enough.
