Thank you, tl!

Any news?

Hi tl,
I am working on MPE support right now.
If you don't mind, I'll send you a beta version when I think it works... It would be good if more people try it before I upload an update.
Thanks,
Attila

Tried the demo version latest...
MPE does not work, as soon I move my finger the sound is cut off...
Tested in Bitwig with a LinnStrument on OSX Mojave... If you fix it before 20th you'll earn $ 53

Tj is right...
With the new version MPE doesn't work anymore.
In Bitwig and with its per VST instrument enabled MPE mode the sound cuts off very fast regardless of Syne's amp envelope settings. In Plogue Bidule decay and sustain work as usual but no pitchbend using my MPE midi controller Sensel Morph.
Can you provide us with the version before v1.1 until it's fixed?

It is possible I messed up something... I made lots of changes for MONO modes, but I did not expect MPE would stop working because of that. I'll have a fix shortly.
Yes, of course I will send the download links to anyone who prefer the previous working version.

Thanks,
Attila

Thanks, Attila.

Still testing... it seems as if different instruments with MPE and microtuning enabled have a slighty different behaviour concerning pitchbend. Madrona Labs Aalto and Rhizomatic Plasmonic sound completely identical and do a linear slide although an arabic scale is loaded, Syne's bend seems to follow the tuning and is a bit "jumpy"...

At the moment Syne is following the tuning when pitch bend is used, but it would be possible to add a setting to do a "normal" pitch bend for MPE. That is much easier to do anyway, than taking the tuned notes into account.

A switch/option for the pitchbend behaviour would be great...

A true microtonal bend and a normal bend feature and the possibility to choose as I can imagine using both depending on the scenario.
