Re: Solaris Sequencer and Arpeggiator Update!

no no, I was just pointing out that the new way of entering notes in the sequence using the keyboard (as the video shows) is very welcomed, and if it were the only new feature of the new sequencer stuff in the upcoming OS, this update would already be valuable!...

Re: Solaris Sequencer and Arpeggiator Update!

Excellent! "record (the keyboard)" alone would be a much valuable addition. But with the first foray into graphical representation, random bits added to the sequences, ratchet... This makes the Solaris a very capable synth in this department! Thank you Jim and John! (and the video with alm...

Re: SysEx Update for v2.x.x OS Users

Got it, I'll try with the DIN connection, thanks.

[Edit] it works with the DIN connection.

Re: SysEx Update for v2.x.x OS Users

still no luck with sending a preset to the Solaris. Worse, the upload seems to crash the usb-midi connection, the Solaris unit is not available anymore as a midi device, I have to reboot it to make it available again. Might it be due to the fact that the application (supposedly, I'm not sure) sends ...

Re: SysEx Update for v2.x.x OS Users

ok, thanks Jim, I'll try that. Btw, there seems to be a typo in the sysex document, in the Identity Request Response table. Shouldn't the device family code be : 10 00 for the Solaris instead of: 00 01? and shouldn't the Device family member code be : 01 00 for the keyboard instead of 00 01? That's ...

Re: SysEx Update for v2.x.x OS Users

I'm trying to develop a solaris driver for the KnobKraft sysex manager https://github.com/christofmuc/KnobKraft-orm.
I succeeded in receiving data, finding the preset name etc.
However, I cannot find out whether the solaris is able to handle a bulk upload preset, and how to do so...

Best.

Re: Is ratcheting important to you?

Still, it would be possible to set different voices to have slightly different offsets to some parameters like filter, EG times, etc. That would be nice, indeed, if it's not too complicated to do! But pairs of voices would have to have the same offsets because of the way the Solaris is designed wit...

Re: Is ratcheting important to you?

Thanks Jim for chiming in. Do you have reason to think that these parameters are being set per-voice? On a synth such as the Rev 2? I would rather think this changes the parameter for all voices. That’s how it works in the Solaris. I mean, what if it did work per-voice but you wanted to modulate the...

Re: Is ratcheting important to you?

For example - let’s say you want keystep to give you a slight pitch variation using one of the mod lanes, so you set it for a very small pitch mod amount, then a long decay, so that multiple pressings of the same key will give you a slightly varying overlay of detuned notes. With keystep mode, each...

Re: Is ratcheting important to you?

John, Jim, since ratcheting is about the seq, is there any chance that you implement what's now known under the name "Voice Component Modelling", i.e. using multiple internal seqs in keystep mode to slightly modulate parameters per voice as discussed here?: https://forums.johnbowen.com/vie...

Re: opposite of Note

1) Osc 2 Modulation by Note - the smallest amount of modulation for pitch that you can set is 0.1, so I dialed that in as a -0.1 to the pitch of Osc 2. 2) But that offsets the unison pitch, so I set Osc 2 Fine’s tuning to +27 That's exactly the values I came up with. Except, I added a "MaxVal&...

Re: opposite of Note

I'm not sure. What I want is to control the amount of detune of two oscs according to the note. I want more detune in the bass range, and less detune in the treble. What I had in mind was to set a 'Note' Mod for the 2nd osc pitch, with a negative amount, as you did in your example, but the problem i...

Re: opposite of Note

Thank you, I'll try both. I find the keytable one interesting, as it would enable more precise settings.

Re: opposite of Note

Yes, but wouldn't it result in a negative value only (which is already available in the mod page through a negative 'Amount' parameter)? '0 - Note' is not the same as 'X - Note'. In the first case, values go from left to right: 0 -1 -2 -3 -4 ... -127 In the second case, values go from left to right:...

opposite of Note

Hi, I searched through the docs and the forum, but could not find how to modulate things with the 'opposite' of Note. I guess the Note parameter is a growing value according to the key pressed by the player, but would it be possible to use something like, (127-Note), and modulate as much as possible...
