An optional 'return to zero' mode could be made I guess. The Memorymoog allows it as an option and some of the stringers do it too. But, in my opinion, it is horrible for a monophonic synth and doesn't sound right in a poly either

For many conventionally musical patches - leads, keys, pads, etc - that maybe the case. I'm not so sure that return to zero would *always* be undesirable.

Congrats to Urs and the U-He team for this great synth!

She's looking quite fine and just about release ready!

On question (very minor). I thought it's funny that the 12/24 db switch on the jupiteresque filter is a red button, whereas the rough/clean switch is exactly the type of switch used on the hardware for the 12/24db selector.

Seems to me like the 12/24 filter selector should be the hardware switch and the rough/clean should the red light?

I won't lose any sleep over it either way, but I figure that's the more true to original design, no?

Totally valid point

(I don't think I could be bothered though... my batteries are flushed empty...)

Build 477

http://www.u-he.com/downloads/Diva477Win.zip
http://www.u-he.com/downloads/Diva477Mac.zip

Added Dymo labels
Fixed bug in Modifier section
made it release candidate

Please try the Offline Render function in your host (DAW, that is):

- create a song
- use presets that sound different in "draft" and "divine"
- set all Diva instances to "draft"
- set Offline Render to "same"
- render song
- set Offline Render to "best"
- compare

If they sound different, then it works in your host. If they sound the same then please let us know which host you have used...

(we'll try to compile a list of compatible hosts...)

Note: Some hosts such as Reaper have a "notify plugins of offline render status" option. This must be on.

Forgot... please try your serial number if you've already got one... if you've bought a license but don't find your license info, then you can request your serial number in the support section of our website.

Do you still plan on implementing the GUIs that are larger than normal to be crisp with appropriate text and graphics. Currently it looks like they're simply upscaled.

Freezing and exporting from Live / OS X are working.

Yes, but it involves some more development. The concept is there, but I need another month of concentrated work on this. So we decided to put that into an update, maybe for Musikmesse in March. All u-he plugs will possibly benefit from it, after a minor gui overhaul (Diva is laid out in a strict raster for this)

I had hoped to have it in V1.0 of Diva, but we lost a lot of time improving the sound during the beta phase. And now we're all ripe for some time off...

Fair enough! It's the sound that counts. I was just excited that there was a plugin that would be easily readable without being glued to the screen

made it to the top...

Like someone (Urs?) said somewhere... something about this thread being the fastest developing within the u-he KVR forum side.. can't argue with that!

----------------

Opened TyrellN6 aside DIVA today... sure miss a couple of Tyrell's features!

.. not really as there's more where that came from ... Zebra
