preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: Midi thru not working and farthest two encoders don't press down?

« Last post by albertswift on December 04, 2025, 10:57:33 PM »

Just put a drop of resin in the knob so it stands off a mm, failing that just put paper in the knob.

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Midi thru not working and farthest two encoders don't press down?

« Last post by Jdom on November 23, 2025, 03:59:19 PM »

Hi I'm noob I'm not a programmer.

I wonder if anyone has any guidance or ideas for the two issues I have.

I have a feeling the encoders on the farthest right need a more shallow knob? So they have more travel to press down? The other four click downwards allowing me to quicky change timbre. When I removed the knob cover the farthest right two will click down showing that they are mechanically and electronically sound. But with the knob on it they do not have space to travel. It's strange that all 6 encoders are not aligned at the same depth?

I have midi thru enabled in settings and I need it to work as my waldorf Blofeld does not have midi thru, but it never receives any midi.

I am sending to the preenFM3 from my polyend tracker. Preen is registering it and working fine. But nothing being sent onwards.

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: Scala files dont occupy full keyrange - dont think its Continu/Keybrd setting

Hi all,
Can anyone post an example of a .scl file that can be read across the entire keyboard range with the preen?
Using an fm3, I got it to work correctly once. But then I stupidly fussed with the file and it doesn't work anymore. I don't know what the exact formatting was when I was successful

This file doesn't work, even though I used -CALC-'s advice of having a blank line in between the commented "description" and the description.

! 22-TET Porcupine[7] 3 3 3 4 3 3 3
!

This also does not work:

The 4 presets names, String / Wood / Gong / Cymb is a joke, with only 4 modes one can only evocate thoses sounds .
But it is noneless useful for timbre shaping, i guess.

re attached the file in first post : levels of resonators was too high (x4), sorry for that.

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Preenfm3 modal resonator

« Last post by Toltekradiation on October 15, 2025, 08:08:35 PM »

Here is the result of some more experimentation around the paraphonic filters.
It's an attempt to get some aspect of Mutable Instrument Rings into the preen, so here are some new fx :

Plck : a karplus-Strong classic pluck algo, with a twist : the frequency of notes is taken from the Scala keyboard mapping
Plk2: same as Plck except midi notes only trig notes, pitch is set with the matrix
Moda: a simple 4 modes resonator, which can morph thru 4 presets, String / Wood / Gong / Cymb

I'm probably just looking over this but
is there is CC control over glide speed?

thanks

OK, so I can confirm, that if you change the header, you can use shorter single-cycle waveforms

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / User waveform length

Hi there,

I've started experimenting with user waveforms on my PFM2, yet, I'm interesed if it is possible to load shorter samples, like, shorter then 1024 samples, if you define it correctly in the header?
