preenfm2 and preenfm3 / How works performance?

« on: November 02, 2023, 02:09:52 PM »

Im intrigued of performance (inside of Edit), works like Elektron machine where u can route some options to the knobs for make easier the performance? If not how works?

Yep I try this, and I use the option that I mention before to trig the synth but when I click another option the sounds slowly decrease. It’s like the machine forgot that was triggering the sound 

Maybe it’s other way to trigger the sound inside the preenfm3 without having this problem?

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / How to make a drone?(whithout using a external sequencer)

« on: September 25, 2023, 12:47:42 AM »

Hello tonight I remember that a week ago I discover by accident that if u push the button red menu + the first on button of the six that are near of the red button you would trig the synth

So I was trying to design a sound for make some drones but when I push other button the sound slowly disappear

Anybody know how to make a functional drone , without needing a sequencer or a keyboard?

If not, would be great to can have an option of infinite duration to trigger the sound.

Btw I tried with the internal sequencer but it’s strange because the seq didn’t retrigger the sound and also it’s not ideal for make a drone cuz I would have a small pop every time that retrigger.

Thks guys

U are right Xavier, but was not the usb . I had so many around cables and I change the position of the preenfm3 and now don’t do any background sound

Thanks 😊

Edit:

On the second menu of Arp , Latc was on;and the arp wasn’t stoping,
/what means Latc?

…
(Solved)
Also I’m having a strange bug. I use a Digitakt for sequence the preenfm3 but the sound of the 5 position on the mixer of the preenfm3 if I activate the arp option on the pfm3 but the sounds never stop even if I stop Digitakt, I see the preferences on arp mode but I try different presets and always have an error on this channel . If u use different channels this don’t happen

So I started to look the code , but yes I think it would take at least a month or two.
Anyway thanks!

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Noise background problem

« on: September 17, 2023, 05:15:12 PM »

Hello today I notice that when the preenfm3 have a noise background problem. When the unit it’s connect send a noise not super loud but enough for disturb a clean recording. Happend to anyone? Have a solution?

Cool!
I already started to see some videos about dsp on octave, now I have a starting point, probably in a few weeks I would have some questions

I don’t know if you can recommend some tutorials, starting tutorials that u can add here or in other post, I think would be great for me or for other persons that are interested to start this journey.


Yep, I remember of seen this menu of performance, I don’t have open the preenfm3 right now. But yes I think that would be lovely to have this menu  really near to the mix volume screen

For me when I’m live performing the volume levels are the main or basic screen that I have during the gig, like this  I adjust during the perform the levels, now I think that would be great  to click the knob on the mix volume level screen  and enter on a sub screen where u can see knobs 1 to 4 to adsr and 5 for the filter and knob 6 for move thru the different sounds that are loaded on the the mix .
Because I think that when u are on a performance the last think that u want it’s menu diving.
I would love to hear what think Xavier about that.

Other idea on this menu it’s to push a bottom for example the + and with the six knob have the function for scroll thru the mix list of presets. Until now this are important points in my opinion that would make easier and attractive the live performance

I think that be able to see improvements on the preenfm3 on the side of live performing would be great. Cuz already it’s super a device super optimal to be on live sets

Anyway I’m going to still seeing this tutorials on how to do a sine wave , so I guess it’s a long travel until I can make some adjust

 Thanks!

I just check last night all the points that u told me.
Even watch some hour duration tutorials about stm33cubeide
also check the code to see if I understand something

But obviously no 

I have really 0,5% of knowledge about coding
I start a few months ago to learn thru YouTube tutorials about processing

So, I don’t know if it’s too much to ask. But I would love to can learn how to make modifications on preenfm3, I have a lot of ideas for improve this machine on a live set situation, (btw yesterday preenfm3 was with me for the first time on a gig and was great, but I have a lot of ideas for add to preenfm3 on a live context)

So I would love if someone can add me some links of tutorials or books, for learn how to do it, I know that can be long but I would love to learn step by step on how to make this incredible machine more incredible

So knowing that I don’t know nothing where I should start?

Thanks, im really loving the preenfm3 and fm synthesis, I was super use to analog synthesizers and always I was a little scare of fm synthesis. But now I’m much more happy with fm synths (they don’t get out of tune! 

I have another video without talking and more musical that Im gonna upload soon (when I have a proper WiFi, and yep it’s crazy it’s only a few videos of this great synth.

Btw today I have my first gig that im
Going to go with the preenfm3!!

Hi!

I would love to study/learn for be able to make some changes on preenfm3,  what I need to do for  start to do it by myself ?

Anyway, I’m going to write down what I would love to see on preenfm3 like this maybe someone also can do it.
 


I would love to add/change a parameter on the mixer screen

For me the scale mode it’s not super useful there.
On a live situation I’m on mix screen , I would love to create a perform menu and put it where is the scale menu like this I have on a really accesible place super near to the volume menu


I would love that on the perform screen I can adjust some parameters:
-position of the filter
-be able change at least adsr of the operator (with the adsr image display)
-also quick access on this menu for change the mixer file, like this you don’t need to do menu diving for change the sounds during the performance

Also I would love to add a third fx slot
The first fx I use for give character to the sound
Also de second (this I usually don’t move during a performance,, maybe becouse it’s to much menu diving)

So would be great to have a third one for can tweak on a live performance situation. And this parameter have the possibility to change on the performance option, also would be great to have a option for can use this filter/fx like it’s in the master or like it’s on a specific sound.

Preenfm3 it’s super compact synth, ideal for live performance knobing, and I think that would be great to implement more functions that invite to use on this way

Hello guys!
I’m in love with the preenfm3

I started to see some mini bugs like the envelope image sometimes froze, or the “oscillator” froze and I need to put down the attack level and put up. (Only happens when I’m doing sound design not on a live situation) anyway I’m super in love with the machine, ah and one knob it’s not doing the click thing

But even more f happens all this stuff I’m super happy of the preenfm3

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / questions and ideas

« on: August 27, 2023, 03:21:22 PM »

Hello, I just received my preenfm3 a week ago

I’m really in love , I still having some doubts but I see all the potential that have the machine 

•My first question it’s about software and programming. I don’t know nothing about programming (just do a course of a few hours of Processing, but if I want to add something to the software , what should I learn? I guess i would need a few months but I would love to know a place for start for be able to add things that I imagine on the future

•I would love to know where I can see all the abbreviations on the lfo and matrix and effects. Would be great

Maybe some of this points are totally not possible but I would love to ask anyway
•it’s possible to see a visual eq (like the image of fabfilter or the regular eq from ableton)

•I’m trying to learn more of fm synthesis, and I try to follow Yamaha dx tutorials or ableton operator, on preenfm3 but I don’t find where is some parameters , for example the output level of the operator and carriers where are? Is it the attack level? If anybody knows would be great for follow the tutorials

•I know on Yamaha dx7 if you re trigger the key u heard the effect of the new configuration. On analog synthesizers if you tweak the new configuration you heard how it’s changing (this let to create interesting variations) so I’m wondering if this possibility exist or it’s not able like the Yamaha dx7

•lfo shaper it’s possible to have and lfo that start when the note it’s trigger and can adjust the shape like it’s and adsr? On ableton it’s a function call it “shaper” that do what I say

•I use a MacBook for the software of the preenfm3 on the computer, but sometimes 8/9 freezes and the machine (preenfm3) stop to sound. So I need to restart the device and not use the program
