The long DIVA thread

[Urs]

Last I read, it was going to be worked on after AAX is done.

AAX almost done, next meeting with UI guys on Thursday.

So close I can taste it!

Well, you haven't seen the todo list for the UI guys

So a new look to the knobs then? I though the first version of 1.3 looked good.

Well, it wasn't consistent. There's a new "worn" look for the Uhbie and a much more readable look for the Digital Osc.

Furthermore, the controls for the Clock and Arpeggiator were integrated in the main panel.

Thanks Urs can't wait to see it and hear it.

@Urs:

Will version 1.3 have an audio input?
this would be a fantastic...

Not yet... that was planned but somewhat went under the radar while we were trying to get the sequencer/arpeggiator combo going... which is now downsized to just the arpeggiator until we find the time and power to redesign the sequencer

There might be an obvious answer for this, but I couldn't find it on forums here - Is there a reason that multimode filter in Diva doesn't have drive control? Both ACE and Bazille multimode filters have those and it adds a lot to the sound modification.

Thanks in advance for the reply.

No vintage synth whose parts were modeled in Diva has a separate drive control. We've set up internal levels so that the behaviour mimics that of the original hardware closely.

Triple Osc and Dual VCO eco can be used to set variable oscillator volumes, which can be compensated for in the VCA section (gain staging).

Hi Urs, on Diva - is there a way to increase the mod depth of the 'Vibrato' ? so say I use the mod wheel at full and have the 'depth' on lfo 1 at max - is there a way to further increase the depth of the vibrato ??

infact I never use the vibrato control as it has a very ineffective range (the max value should be sould be at least twice of what it is now imo).
when I need decent vibrato I assign the pitches of the oscillators to lfo1 with a 7.50 "tune mode" depth....but i'd rather leave the "tune mod" availble for other modulators if it was possible.

Yeah agree, would love to have pitch depth go further on vibrato and lfos on both Diva and Ace! On Diva vibrato is not even a full octave, am I right? I would love to have it optionally go atleast 4 octaves. I use this a lot in my music and sound design with other synths.

Have been playing lately with FAW Circle and Fafilter twin. While I love DIVA sound and I use very extensevly I really miss better modulation routing options like those on more modern soft synths, I see a lot of room for improvement in that field for DIVA.

Also the littel knobs for control in the LFO, Effects and mods are too tiny.

interesting. Can you be more specific?
