thanks ik
like it very much

Ta very much! (nice an' retro-lookin'!)
...will have a dabble this evening...

A great syn....a lead monster!

I only realize some crackling in the right channel. Can someone confirm this? This behaviour was not there in the earlier versions of the plug.

Excellent Ik! Looking foward to trying out this beauty! And what a crew behind you now.

This is going to be JUICY!

wow .. great work ik !!

thnk U very much!!

peace

I've been using Maestro since you had it up some time ago--it is one of my top three synths, I use it a lot. I was wondering why more people weren't fired up about it...I didn't realize it wasn't available! Maestro works great, sounds great. I'll d/l the newer version later today.

A really big thank you for your generous spirit!

Thanks for the feedback(s)! I'll take a look tonight.
Strange. I just recompiled the previous v. with a newer Synthedit. ( ) => The newer not necessarily better .... .
ik.

IK you've still got my space if you want to use it, don't forget

Ik, great synth man! I was even tempted to start laying down tracks when I started checking out the patches. But after the first loop my Orion 5.1 locked up on me. All I had going was Maestro and a Drumkit with a simple beat?

If there's a way to bring the CPU usage down a tad, I'd be much obliged.

Did that + couple minor changes.
Uploaded a beta to see if it really resolves the problem ... :

Please give feedback....

Ditto

what a giant, thick sound. I am d/l'ing the new version and excited that you axxed the vu and scope. (Taxes my poor athlos 950)

yup, the problem seems to be gone.
but the cpu usage did not rewally go down, so it seems the scope and vu-meter are no problem...

ok, then here is a fixed version...:

A very short OPlat pattern "Mad Cow" included.
(Maestro IS the Cow )
Worked now in OPlat5.1 w/o a glich...
ik.

Sorry that I am still bothering...but your plug is simply too good to ignore.

Still crackling here. For me the update didn't fix that.

still crackling here, too.

Hmmm. Then I need you help!
Would you mind to go to Ian's website and get
the older version:

http://www.ianweb.dial.pipex.com/ikaldor/maestro.htm

and
1)-see if the old one was REALLY glitch free...
2)-is the noise coming ONLY from the right channel?

(I have just small monitors ... can't notice the crackling ....)
Thanks,
ik.

This November version shows the same behaviour. Must have been the first October release that did not crackle. Unfortunately I have not saved all of them.

Yes, the crackling depends only the right channel.

If you have bad monitors try a headphone...then you can't overhear it.

Hope you'll find the problem. Sorry that I can't help more....I can only give a feedback......

Great stuff Ik! The second revamp is much smoother for me and Orion. As for the 'right channel' anomalies, I'm not detecting any problem here? Maestro's output is dang hot, but if I bring it down on a patch and/or lower the channel fader considerably, Maestro sounds fairly smooth and clean for me atleast?

Looking foward to getting onto the 4th generation now!

Great synth..!

No cracking noise here (P4 2.4). CPU hit is about 8.5%. Worth it for such a fantastic sound.

Hi Andy!

v. 1.27 has the option to turn on/off the scope/VU meter. Also the a "Space" switch added to turn on/off the stereo effect. Should take care of any cracking noise (feedback please).... Thanks.

Short mp3 demo:
Made in Orion Plat 5.1. Four instances of Maestro was used. (+ one orion native drum track)
(CPU usage: ~ 55% on Athlon XP 1.4 GHz)

Enjoy,
ik.

Liked your 'Moo Song' in Orion.

Everything running excellent for me and Maestro now. Thanks for the quick fixes, they did the trick for sure! Underway composing with it, and am just taking a break at the moment.

Thanks again Ik, Maestro is AWESOME!
