« Last post by Toltekradiation on October 15, 2025, 10:19:59 PM »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.

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

is there is CC control over glide speed?
thanks

« Last post by encoder on September 03, 2025, 05:39:11 AM »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?

For the past week I have been writing a tool in lua for Renoise. A simple controller for pfm3. Midi works both ways, sends and receives NRPN. There is also a simple midi router to select channels freely. I skipped the fx section (hey, well it works in the DAW), mod matrix (only the first 3 and one destination each are available via midi (by the way, mapping the order of sources and destinations is a separate story)), envelopes curves (not available) and modulators.
I got to version 1
It works, doesn't crash, looks like W95. I'll test it some more and only then I'll post on the tools section of the Renoise forum.
The only drawback (not for me) is that it is an internal tool written for that DAW, not a vst3 or lv2 plugin. My skills don't allow me to go as crazy as c++, sorry.
I add a screenshot in the attachment.

It would be very cool if you could remember the settings that make hang the pfm3.
Hi Patrice,
fortunately, there is not a lot of it because over the years the errors have been successively corrected, also thanks to you.
Some of the behaviors leading to the crash of pfm3 I can not reproduce (if they appear I will write them down).
Of the things that are easy to reproduce:
- preenfm2Controller standalone creates new banks from the directory making up for the lack of presets with -empty- files. Browsing presets will hang pfm3, but you can save to -empty-. Uncorrectable for me, worth keeping in mind.
- over 128 scl files - hangs
- sending NRPN for Lfo freq: 0.00-99.9 range is ok. If you change from internal to external (over 99.9hz) it freezes pfm3.
- Any preset, then: press menu->preset->rand->Envelope Pad setting-> Rand ->apply. Then go to oper->env and move encoder. Instant yellow lines on screen. This randomization setting sets the envelope levels off scale.

We appreciate you making the forum less peaceful!!
When you edited your original post, did you take down the preset bank attachment? I don't see it.
Thanks!
Hi,
I'm doing my best!
Unfortunately, yes. That bank was as one of the files in the zip archive. And unfortunately those midi tables, well no, they were not suitable for people to use, so I really checked them and corrected them.
That bank of presets, I also need to fix - in some cases when browsing presets it sort of didn't reset the sound (and it should. Somewhere on the forum and in the code I saw that there was such a protection).
I will improve that bank, unify the mod matrix and gain, add more drum presets (mostly kick, but I also managed to make snare drums acceptable). Well, I'll confess - In Renoise I did such a test project: kick, snare, hh, hh, synth, bass. I use 6 mono outputs, 6 instruments, 3 midi channels. To test drums I have Cardinal set up and in it Valley Topograph - a port of the MI Grids (the same as I have in MI Anushri), hy-plugins for bass and synth. Nothing special, but hours of fun. That's why I like pfm3 so much. It's a small, slick sound module with massive capabilities.
