preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: FM3 freezing/ lock up glitch

Would be interesting to know if it works fine with previous official firmware 0.110 ?
It's possible that editing env with the previous beta make things unstable with 1.0.

1. Can you rename the "mix.dlf" on the SD card (mix2.dfl or something like that, it won't be read anymore)?
That's the default mixer that is loaded.
Rename and not delete in case you want to get it back.

2. You can copy mix.dlf from https://github.com/Ixox/preenfm3/releases/download/v0.105/pfm3_SD.zip
if you want to have some sounds loaded when you turn on your preenfm.


3. If that's not enough :
On Your SD Card : rename "pfm3/" into "pfm3_old/" and copy the content on your computer to make a backup.
Then put he "pfm3/" folder from the zip above.

4. An other idea (i've never seen) : corrupted firmware.
No worry, you can ALWAYS flash the firmware. From the pfm3 bootloader or directly with DFU mode.
But if that's the case, you should use an other SD card.

Yes you can.
It will be more noisy than using a power supply because the 5v of the charger directly feed the DAC. But it depends on the mobile charger.
With a 9v power suply there is a stage to lower the voltage that clean up the 5v.

I'll take a look at that asap. Thanks for the video.
Do you have the problem only when importing DX7 sysex patch ?

Please try firmware 1.00.
Looks like my script that build the zip files missed up with the 0.999X version and put a wrong version in the zip.
Sorry.

Thanks for the explanation for parameter.

Yes that would be neat to have more noise choice, i agree. And per operator. But you can't
You can still use a second instrument listening to the same midi channel. Use a simple Algo such as algo1. And you can have a noise independent from the first instrument that you can modulate.

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: Any hints on figuring out the fm3 sequencer?

« on: June 04, 2023, 07:57:25 AM »

Hi,

The documentation lacs the latest features but it should be a good start:
https://github.com/Ixox/preenfm3/wiki/The-Sequencer

What is lacking is :
. You can now create new notes without external keyboard in the step sequencer. Hold down the "Note" buton and turn any encoder.
. Note and velocity modification (note also shift all note from a chords) in the step sequencer.
. Midi control

Don't hesitate if you have any question.

Cool. Glad the copy&past is finally fixed.


"2". What is parameter lock ?

"3". if i understand, it can be done by setting the number of voices to "0" in the mixer. Not ideal but that's a workaround.

"Edit2"  : you can add LP, BP, HP after the noise to sculpt it.

"Edit 3" : just tried quickly  and it works as expected. New sound each time i press the "Rand" button. I noticed indices random sometimes new numbers does not have a big imact on the sound. But even Modulation alone give totally different results.

"Edit 4" : not easy to do as they are not at the same place in the processing flow.

« on: May 28, 2023, 08:35:03 PM »

Big thanks to Toltekradiation for his fanstatic work on the FX, Envelopes and LFO noise code.

New firmware 1.00
https://github.com/Ixox/preenfm3/releases

Yes it's now 1.00 but it's not more stable than the previous ones   
I just wanted cleaner versioning numbers.

This one has many new features  such as :

• new paraphonic FX in a new FX slot.
• Envelope shapes can be set differently for each env step : ADSR
• User defined envelope
• New LFO noise
• Possibility to edit velocity and midi note in the sequencer

Crashes both when pasting Env or Osc settings. Works even on the scuffed default "Sound" preset; First engine.
Again only triggers when playing a note after pasting. It only crashes when pasting anything into the first (1) operator's settings.

Ouchs orry... thanks for the quick feedback.
Hope it's fixed now.

But i didn't change the Env copy/past where i didn't see any crash/problem.
Did i again miss something, or is it working correctly now ?

Edit: Spoke too soon. Copying works, pasting too, but the second time I pasted that the PFM3 crashed again. I copied OP3, pasted into OP2 and lastly into OP1, which crashed it.

"OP" ? Were you copying Osc or Env ?
What algo did you use ? Can you reproduce ? If yes could you share the preset ? Maybe save the default mixer and share "mix.dfl" file ?

There is a pull request as well !

Awesome, thanks a lot  !! 
I added a couple of question in the review.

Hi,
Copy and Paste are fixed in 0.999c.
In addition, Envelopes are now fully copied and pasted (Time, level and shape).

I have another feature request: Being able to save per-instrument sequences.
It does not in any way make sense to only use saved sequences for all instruments at once. I was hoping to be able to save simple things like four on the floor and stuff like that as a sequence to be able to easily load them at a later point, but instead, it saves and loads the entire sequencer into a bank index...

Keep in mind that the pattern (1 to 12) is independant from the instrument.

So you can have a default sequencer preset with 6 simple patterns you often use in slots 7 to 12.
By default leave instrument 1 to 6 linked to empty patterns 1 to 6.
Let's say pattern 7 is a four on the floor, and you want it for instrument 3. You only have to associate instrument 3 with pattern 7.

In the step sequencer page, use encoder f to select the pattern you want for your instrument.
Encoder c change the current instrument in the page.
I think that will make sense if you give a try.

Use long press (-) to copy, (+) to paste

I just discovered that pasting envelope parameters causes the PFM3 to crash when playing a note into that patch...  :'(

I separated time/level env since i implemented copy/past. And env shape was recently added.
I'm not sure that makes sense to copy only time, or level or shape.
Maybe the full envelope (time, level, shape) should be copied and pasted at the same time.

I can reproduce the crash, there's a bug when copying the env because of some recent change in the memory parameter structure. I'll fix that.
