render to audio is your friend. You can use accurate and stack voices and never run out of cpu!vinz89 wrote:Yeah i know...
But you can't do proper audio rate modulations and even FM on draft mode... also try to increase the resonance of the filters in that mode and listen to this horrible alisaing at high freq... hmmm...
Having said that it's clear that you can also make good sounds in draft mode...

Improvements!

The only upgrade fee ever was from Zebra 1.x to 2.x, which was 20$ USD back then. That was because it was a complete rewrite from scratch. Only the filter algorithms of Zebra 1.x have made it into 2.x.

There all free until it makes a full version jump, which then I believe there is a cheaper upgrade price than if buying it new.
I forget the details about that exactly though.
edit:
well I guess the above post answered more correctly.

I'd be happy with a simple list in one of those translucent-black windows...pierb wrote:I don't know if this has been asked before (67 pages...) but some visual feedback on what's being modulated and how would be great.

Just a quick Sunday night update
Been working on the sync issues with the global Swing implementation. I'm still having trouble updating MSEGs for full sync. LFOs seem pretty stable now, and surprisingly few tweaks to the Arp seem to have done the trick as well.
We'll soon need a field test though. The swing might vary a little bit from before, but that's because it's literally a full rewrite of all sections involved. I'm sure it's only milliseconds though. But then, the arpeggiator can run for hours and keep timing.
Later,
Urs

The new manual is more than half done, and it gets easier/faster the more I write. Should have a provisional version up soon

A (probably impractical) suggestions for ACE - would it be possible to plug a cable into a prewired socket (eg an ADSR in one of the filter modules) and have the signal from the cable scale the prewired signal? I know that the multiples could be employed to the same effect, but it might be useful where both multis are already in use.

Yeah, sorry, that's not going to work... from the prewired modulators, the LFOs can already be scaled in the unit itself, only the ADSRs and the Modwheel can not.
It would be way too much effort to add "scalable wires".

Ack! I totally forgot about this thread!
Here, I've just been putting feature requests in all sorts of unrelated threads. 
I remember that there was a reason for not having a feedback module in Zebra but now that I'm getting more and more use from Zebrify, the more I find myself desiring one. Something similar to the mixer module except it allows you to send signal back to the top of the grid (or ideally to any point in the grid). It would also be nice if you could select different points in the signal chain to extract signal for the pitch/envelope detectors.
If these requests are not possible/plausible, I will accept delicious German pastries as a substitute.
