PreenFM2 / Preenfm2 metal case hex posts

« Last post by Esppse on October 13, 2017, 04:14:22 PM »

Hello,

I ordered a Preenfm2 from VanDaal Electronics nearly 7 months ago. There were missing parts from the kit. I still have not received all the parts and the seller stopped communicating. It is quite frustrating. I have been trying to finish this for a very long time. 3 seasons have changed.

This is the last part I need. 4 of these brass hex posts.

Does anyone know the length and threading? Ill have to purchase them myself locally since these missing parts were never received. I’m looking forward to completing this one.

Thank you very much

I also vote for Hz mode to be integrated into the "Official" firmware

PreenFM2 / Riser FX patches

« Last post by matrix12x on October 12, 2017, 02:41:00 AM »

I made a couple of Riser FX type patches you can load using the PreenFM2 Editor. Note: use the mod wheel to make it "rise."
This is a great synth.

Hello there..

something like: :::: (but each point can be turned on and off individually)

That reminds me of something.. Was it Yamaha QX5 ?? But that was in a single line.. I prefer in 2 lines.. It's easier to identify which number is on or off, especially for numbers 3 to 6..

Have a nice day everyone..

this resulted in a crash of the synth.

Do you have a step to reproduce ?

The branch name is 8mono if you want to play with it.
https://github.com/Ixox/preenfm2/blob/8mono/src/hardware/FMDisplay.cpp#L1121
And the function bellow that erase the number after some time.

i will probably clone this and make my adaptions for this version also.

as for the voice display, i don't really care :-) maybe one could make it display just lines or points for each voice that would then fit on one row?

saving combos worked fine.

i tried loading a combo when i had created the combo bank but not yet saved a combo sound. this resulted in a crash of the synth.

Cool thanks for testing.
No problem with saving combos ? 

the timbre numbers 5 to 8 are displayed on the "home" screen as 1 to 4. so if you play i1 and i5 you only see that i5 is playing. theoretically there would be space one row below. this is not a real bug, more cosmetics :-)

Yes i know that.
But on the next line, there will be problem with modulation "Note1 Midi Scaling" and with the blinking midi clock.

Midi channels are still in Menu=>Settings, but i have a proto with 8 timbres.
Let me know if you find any bugs.
I also didn't test it under heavy load.

Screen displays "8 timbres" when booting with the version 2.07 b1.

seems to work fine so far, have to do some more heavy load testing :-)

Again I'm so impressed by how easy this synth is to use and understand.
