Besides wav files, it would also be nice to use the Serum format.

Cool.
Thanks.

Would it be possible to import custom wavetables? This would open new possibilities for the Solaris.
Thanks

Actually, when the current preset is changed, the Solaris automatically stops abruptly all voices. For live purposes, it will be useful to have the possibility to avoid that. The idea would be that the unused cores are directly available for the new preset, allowing the previous voices to keep using...

Hi, I am exactly in the same situation. I am using macOS Catalina and the Solaris USB cable is plug into a USB hub and then in my Mac where I can see it. When I press a key on the Solaris, the MIDI message arrives on the Mac on channel 1. When I send a MIDI message (key pressed) on channel 1 via USB...

I already sent an email to John to submit the bug.

Thanks for both replies.
Concerning the samples pool issue, it could be a preset option to automatically load the corresponding sample pools (at least if it's not the current loaded one). It could also be possible to load at startup the last samples pool used.

Hi, I have to questions: 1. Each time I launch the Solaris, it loads the "Glockenspiel" as default samples pool. If I select a patch that uses another samples pool, it is not loaded and I have to do it manually each time. Should the Solaris not load the correct sample pools when necessary?...

Thanks for the information. Hope you find a DSP coder.

Hi, I have a patch where I use the mod wheel to modulate the release time of the VCA enveloppe. When the mod wheel is used, the release time increases. It works but the behavior surprises me. In fact, when I engage the mod wheel, the release time is modified only for the notes played after that. So,...

Non only do these presets show the versatility of the Solaris, but there are also very inspiring for my own presets.
Many thanks to Brian.

I made some panning tests, but I don't remember that it changes anything. I will make some new tests the next it occurs. But it doesn't happen very often. I should also remember (I send an email to John about this a few months ago-, that it happens also sometimes that no sound is sent and that I hav...

I didn't use the Compare function. And, at least the last time it appears, it was during a selection of a patch (thus I wasn't modify any modulation options).

Hello, First, let me wish a happy new year to everyone. I have a strange bug since the latest OS version. Sometimes, in the middle of a session, the Out 2 doesn't output any sound anymore (whatever patch I choose). From the level of my sound card, it seems like the results is summed and send to Out ...

Did anyone manage to compile the program on Mac OS X? Which program? The editor Solarium of Jim Hewes. I downloaded the source code, open it with Projucer (JUCE IDE) and try to compile it, but I had compilation errors : 1. The predefined variable INVALID_VERSION is not defined (EditHistory.cpp, 351...
