Hi Lotuzia, I'm really enjoying PolyKB III and your Analogville presets!

I just updated to 3.02 and noticed when I go to the pull down menu Analogville is listed 2x's as Analogville and Analogville 1 with the list of presets duplicated twice.(Mac OS Yosemite DP9.12)
Is there an easy way to delete Analogville 1 so I only have one Analogville listed?
Sorry if there's an obvious solution I'm missing.
Thanks,KG

I just encountered the same thing with a different preset pack I had loaded twice. Here is how to fix it.

First, select a preset from the Analogville 1 set from the first dropdown/flyout. Then drop-down the first menu again and you'll see a "Delete Analogville 1" option. Go ahead and delete it - it does not affect what you have in the database for the first Analogville. (That is, it does not physically delete any preset files.)

Upgraded. I still contend that the GUI would look better flat. However; the sound. This has to be one of the most authentic & inspiring VAs out there.

+1. Instead of being able to see what one is doing on the synth itself, one has to read labels. Which is about the only negative point i can find about this synth. What an awesome sounding beast! Lovely

Yes, no GUI will ever please everybody

Glad you enjoy the sound.

Thanks a lot kg

Yes you might have imported it twice. And the solution,as you saw, was easy.

the main point that you keep avoiding with this, is that the way the oscillator selector is currently (and has been for YEARS without change despite numerous complaints) pleases NOBODY.

Well, i don't care about the specific looks, but about functionality. It isn't functional this way.

I've already mentioned a few users comments about this to Xils. And will continue to do so. I can even propose some alternative designs. We'll see. It's not a problem for me because I can hear directly what waveforms are used, so I dont need to see nor read it, but yes, I can understand that some people would like to see them more clearly, or get the info in another way than with the mouseover tolltp (wich will however probably remain the more accurate because it gives the info in the more complete/precise form : Example : Saw--> Square : x,xx %)

Sure, ears work fine. But still, a good visual feedback is always a good thing. Especially with softsynths (where it is completely possible to do just that...)

Just installed the update - didn't have any bugs as such before but just a reminder that it still needs:

report patchname to host
automation for filter type
NKS version

Lotuzia · Post by **Lotuzia** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 8:28 am

NKS is currently on test at NI. And it seems this take a little time.

aMUSEd · Post by **aMUSEd** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 8:59 am

OK but might have been an idea for filter type automation to be there first otherwise it's not going to work in the NKS either - also the plugin not reporting patchnames to the host will make saving out NKS patches harder as they will need to be typed individually (and this is also the problem for me when saving Kore presets or Logic aupresets)
