The PanMod is way cool.

I hear the polyglide coming in strong also.

Do you record the notes first, then overdub with controllers?

Or is it the old school play with right, and tweak with left> :roll:

That should wake up the dead. :D What conversion app do you use for the files? Mine sound like crap when I convert them as a batch file to mp3. But then again mp3's sound like crap to me when synths are beiong used anyway. All of the lows and highs they claim that aren't noticed that are sacrificed ...

Sample Oscillators II

:idea: Just edited some wav.'s for the sample Oscillators that sound great. I stack 8 of them in Rotor Mix and crossfade them at a fixed Khz rate. It is the Gibson 101E organ and the crossfades are of drawbar footages. Vibrato is done w. the new V-LFO section and it rocks. That cheezy old organ neve...

Instruments / Performance 4 QWave

I have dived into this awesome synth the last few days, and can't believe I didn't see the beauty of this beast until recently. I have always used Solaris and Prowave for wave work, but that won't be necessary anymore. I was quickly able to make some instrument presets and start combining them into ...

MIDI Clocking Of Envelopes

Will this feature allow me to use the Step Sequencer to change the values of the envelopes? I am learning as we speak how to use the step sequencer to control filter movements, etc. I grow weary of using expression pedal and their inaccurate slopes. Besides, since I will using this stuff live I coul...

Just wanted to say that Solaris looks even better than the Matrix 12 or XPander. It's gonna be a FAT BASTARD, and even a pretty one. I'm still going w/ the Olive tint, and I'll take the Ash. But the stained / Laquered Redwood is what I really want. I was looking at the rough edges though and decided...

Solaris Vrs. 5.0.6 BETA

I can only say I am excited to get XITE-1 in a few weeks, then Solaris this fall in its hardware version. But while I am waiting, I have a beta version 5.0.6 only in a project w/o any mixers, etc. This way I can load up effects chains, RDII Modules, and 3rd party Oscillators to my hearts content. Wi...

RD II Modules High Pass Filter 6db

This is my favorite all time HP Filter. I usually don't use HP's much as they turn my synths into mosquitos, except when using Solaris w/ it's multiple filters and enveleopes, not to mention source signal options. But this filter and it's low decibal approach add the perfect amount of HP, while reta...

Excellent Idea Brotha' Man Strav100. I have such a great time w/ the Sample Oscillators using my Kyma stuff. The samples are larger than than need to be, but they are unique in sound compared to the basic JD800 sample set from B.Walker. But those are very good quality, and quite numerous as well. I ...

Yeah JB,

I was wondering about that myself, but Nuetron has yet to describe to me the exact details.

I know he will explain things soon, and I will post the results.

I am excited though.

What did think about the Rotor II preset?

Hardware BPM Metronome ( LED ) 4 Solaris.

I am having a hardware LED made that will be connected to Solaris for the sake of monitoring BPM's live. I am hoping it will work. The creator is a Scope developer of yore, and says he is making a blinking LED that could attach to the A16U, or a 1/4" I/O from Solaris. It sounds useless to many,...

Good Old Ensoniqs. They were a nifty way for a keyboardist to do those 2 string bends of a guitarist. For example a guitar player would have the E string 5th fret as the intended target glide, while bending the B string a whole step below, up to match the pitch of the E string. Very cool on a keyboa...
