I'm sitting here playing with programming patches and I'm wondering if there is a way to use one key to trigger a sound change (e.g. filter sweep) across all keys.
I tried doing an MMap with one key active, this one key is mapped to an envelope, and mapped to OSC volume so that it makes no sound. Whatever I target with this envelope, only the (attempted) keyswitch key has the targeted effect.
Is what I'm attempting even possible?
Is it possible to create a makeshift keyswitch in Zebra?

I am not sure that's possible. Howie?

I don't think that is possible... you can use an expression pedal and do it manually... and depending on your DAW you might be able to do it there and there must be some hardware controllers that can do stuff like that.cake builder wrote:I'm sitting here playing with programming patches and I'm wondering if there is a way to use one key to trigger a sound change (e.g. filter sweep) across all keys.

If I am understanding things correctly, this will be possible in Zebra 3

I think it's only possible if the effect (filter sweep or whatever) is global i.e. not per voice. See attached technical example.

Ah, wait... here it is again, "downdated" . BTW if you ever encounter a message saying that the preset was created with a newer version, and you want to load it anyway, right-click on the offending file and select "convert to h2p" (or to nks or native if you insist on using those formats!)

I thought that might be the case. Thank you for making an example. It seems to only work while holding a note, so what I imagined of being able to play a melody and then hit a key to trigger a change while playing must not be possible. I was just curious if it could be done.Howard wrote:I think it's only possible if the effect (filter sweep or whatever) is global i.e. not per voice. See attached technical example.

There are a number of ways to accomplish that... but not just within Zebracake builder wrote:I thought that might be the case. Thank you for making an example.

Of course, sometimes it's just fun to see how far you can get with the internal modulation alone.
