KVR Audio

A new version of helix (EDIT: win32 and intel mac) is released.

The big new features include an arpeggiator, a new oscillator type modeling a plucked string. LFO-speed is now a mod-destination. The noise oscillator use the unstable settings, the reverb sounds less metallic and the pop-up menus indicate the current selection.

Get the latest version here:

Jonas, would you care to elaborate a bit on syntax of arp scripts?
they look totally powerful, if a bit intimidating

Is it preset-compatible with previous versions?

Yep! the only thing that might need some tweaking after loading an older patch is the reverb sound.

There are no stupid questions! It's a poly-mode... poly, legato, mono, ARP

string thing sounds great!!! (Thanks

)

Reverb is better

found a little bug,

chainge a OSC "TYPE" the gui for that gui becomes a mixed mess of the new type & the old type intill you turn the OSC off & on again

Ah, there it is! sounds great. Brilliant idea too to include a scripting system. Will you provide further explanations for doing our own scripts?

And is there a way to sync the arp to the host sequencer? Or maybe that's for later?

thanks for all this anyway!

I've got some stuck notes in arp buffer...

edit: you sync arp the same way you sync lfos. there is a flip switch next to rate knob.
