TimeDomain - HYDi V.1.3 released

As I've tested "Gremlin" effect quite thoroughly, I can say that it's useful, though somewhat quirky and the behavior of WarpA and WarpB parameters is still a mystery to me.
It can be used as static formant filter, but the main attraction is in formant sequencing where "Gremlin" really shines. It starts being really useful if you automate the "hold" button state. I managed HYDi to do some kind of throat-singing, Delay-Lama style
I'll try to record it some time next week.
And it can be useful for that dubshit wobbles with more extreme warp settings (and of course "hold" automated).
About other effects: that dynamic switch is really damn clever. Great synth indeed!

Cool, I'll put it back. WarpA is Tri+,Tri-,Saw+,Saw-, this drives the Sequencing. WarpB (except 1 which is bypass) just really messes with the WarpA signal - to get different timings but still stay BPM locked at start and end. Probably needs some minor tweaking. I might be able to add some crude LED lights(like the actual sequencer) so that you can get atleast a bit of visual feedback of what is going on - dang screen space is already tight...Nahkranoth wrote:As I've tested "Gremlin" effect quite thoroughly, I can say that it's useful, though somewhat quirky and the behavior of WarpA and WarpB parameters is still a mystery to me.
Yip, that is what it's there forNahkranoth wrote: It starts being really useful if you automate the "hold" button state.

Yeah, there will be a manual this time around - been making notes while adding features/programming, so it isn't such a big undertaking to do in one go. Won't be that huge - somewhere in the range of 20pages... including picturesNahkranoth wrote: Thanks, Andrew!

Once you understand the basic 'quirks' - it's easy to work with.

I'm definitely looking forward to the 1.3 version. This is a really awesome and unique synth.

Thanks! I've been producing for about 15 years now. I'd like to go pro, but it's a real hard market nowadays.Ichad.c wrote:Nice songs on your SoundCloud btw.

Micro-Tuning(per-note) isn't supported but does anybody want some non A=440 tunings? Its a list - so not-typeable later on. I've already added some usual suspects like 432, for the Zen crowd. Speak now or forever hold your peace.
Btw - in the SEQ - per-note retrigger + stops are now supported.

Dang, your timing is good - beta is dropping today. Actually forgot about that i.e. it's disabled - but I'll make it adjustable. But due to quirkyness - this will only be available in Unison Mode - ditto for portamento.mridlen wrote:Is the next version going to have adjustable pitch bend? 12+- is too much for me.
Cheers.

*EDIT* Working on a quick workaround to - think I'll be able to have pitchbend working in all modes - quickly isolating the CC #.
*EDIT2* Pitchbend works in all modes now + Range Select + Lag.

Agree. The dynamic switches are so damn smart. And so logical. Eg. "true" ducking (for delay or reverb): DCA as a mod source (not quite sure if it need to be inverted right now but heck, it's only one simple click to test it), set amt to taste, done.Nahkranoth wrote:...

Another thing I like is that you can use one particular mod source on most of the other mod destinations too with just a few simple clicks. No matrix. Just cycle through the available options and done. Everything at a glance.
Can't wait to get the 1st Beta because finally we all now can save and share patches.
Regards
Sebastian

The underdog becomes a beast of a synth Kudos for the handling of suggestions/requests and for relentlessly working to pack this synth with as many "sonic wepz" as possible Presets galore? I can't wait

Thanks idfpower - historically speaking, you were the first person to help me out - still like that tune! If it wasn't for people's random acts of kindness she will never have made it to where she is today.idfpower wrote:The underdog becomes a beast of a synth Kudos for the handling of suggestions/requests and for relentlessly working to pack this synth with as many "sonic wepz" as possible Presets galore?

c++ Coded, designed and polished her today - 15 and a half hours later - she's done -officially in BETA! Now it's just final debugging and loading presets!
Today is a good day

Well congratz for making it this far It's good to see a project growing (unfortunately a lot of DC entries got dropped after the competition) and there's certainly a lot of love and work put in this synth
