preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: envelopes: to click or not to click that is the question

« on: September 20, 2016, 10:58:37 PM »

No problem, that was a very interesting reading.

I didn't even know the name of that kind of clicks : "note stealing clicks".

> "Some japanese manufacturers (I don't say names here) prevent voice stealing clicks by fading out voices slowly before they start new notes. "

That's exactly what i do, during 6 * 32 samples, which add 5ms of latency when a note "steal" the voice of an other note.
The guy concludes it leads to "very bad MIDI timing".
I never heard anyone complaining about that.
But i think many would complain about the "stealing clicks"

I'm not sure we talk about the same click.

Open timbre.cpp and replace the 2 occurences of  "noteOnWithoutPop" by "noteOn".
Load a soft sound with soft attack. Preen.bnk > 8-B Organ
Set number of voices to 2.
Now,  press A B C D E F G on your keyboard, without releasing any note.
At C and after, you'll hear the click.

I don't think this is something you want.

2.05 is available for download. See first post.
It's worth upgrading

Thanx Lokki, & merci Xavier..
But still, implementing the breath controller as standard CC2 would be a better option, in terms of compatibility..

I agree. And it was quite quick to add

If you can choose your CC, choose 115, 116, 117 or 118..
That will control preformance values which are accessible as a matrix source (P1-P4) .

Without the modification described in this thread., some people hear this peak.
As you use PCB R5d you already have step 1,2,3 done by just soldering the 22ohm OLED resistor, so the peak is smaller that it was on PCB R5c.
If you make a shield as described it will be even smaller.

OK thanks.
So adding a "Brea" (CC2) matrix source sounds like a good idea.

Yes, that would be interesting.
Is it always using CC 2 ?

What breath controller do you have ?
I used to have a yamaha wx5, and i miss it.

ok, xavier your code did not work, you mixed up the source 

OOps... Yes i did 
But you got the idea

thanks! perfect.

Cool. I really like when open source is usefull like this

yes, they have to be four different channels, because otherwise i cannot use glide (voice set to one) and it does not "feel" like a string on a bass guitar. (basically what my controller emulates)

I don't understand that. Set your 4 instruments with voice = 1 and glide.
Make them listen the same midi channel and they glide all at the same time... no ?

but your example should also work with four different channels in the if sections, so the preenfm would listen on channels that are set in the global menu and also to the 4 channels i hardcode. i will try this asap and let you know. thanks!

Yes that should work with 4 hardcoded different midi channels.

1) either on 4 channels "simultaneously" to  get gliding for every voice (you set the same sound for all four voices)
2) or outputs to 4 different channels and can trigger four different sounds at once (depending on the trigger you hit, much like on the tribass: http://misa-digital.myshopify.com/products/tri-bass)
currently i can only  use the preenfm for one or the other, but not both.

Reading that, i have the feeling you only need a 5th midi channel that would play all instrument at the same time for your case 1.

If that's the case you only need to modify MidiDecoder.cpp ?

Code: [Select]

void MidiDecoder::midiEventReceived(MidiEvent midiEvent) {
The first part of this function is where it checks whether the channel of the midi data it receives fit the preenfm2 configuration.
Add something like this in each of the 4 IF blocks :

Code: [Select]

|| (this->synthState->fullState.midiConfigValue[MIDICONFIG_CHANNELX]-1) == 15
And you'll be able to play all instruments at the same time when using midi channel 15.

Do i miss something ?

Have you seen that somewhere else ? 
And can you describe a use case ? I don't understand at all what would that allow you to do....

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: DX7 bank import / wrong file type?

« on: September 05, 2016, 10:49:07 PM »

DX7 sysex bank files that the preenfm2 can read must contain 4104 bytes.
Yours contain 4118 bytes. So they are ignored.
