Tyrell N6 New Browser

[pumafred]

Urs, could you tell us if Tyrell ns6 is a definitely dead project ?

It's not "definitely dead", but we cannot afford to divert any development time into it any time soon. That's not about money, it is about the time it consumes.

And, as we should all know, “time is money”.

Not in our case. Time equals reciprocal number of emplyoees. Number of employees above a certain threshold equals boss sleep deprivation multiplier.

As I said for any Komplete (NKS) users I'm open to converting more banks, so far the factory bank and my own bank are converted, the rest is by other people like Matt Bowdler so while I can easily convert them (it's already on my todo list) for personal use I'd have to send them to him to distribute (if he wanted to) as I wouldn't have the right. Same probably true of some other third party banks although stuff in the already public u-he library is probably OK I guess.

I'm pretty sure Matt would be A-OK with that, he's a great guy. Do your NKS conversion for yourself then send him that outright. I'm sure he'll incorporate that in the downloads of his Kuu soundsets for TN6

[aMUSEd]

Yes he is, and I will, I just don't like to assume anything.

Well I've done all the Unfinished Tyrell patches and sent them to Matt so hopefully they will be available soon. Also a friend did the previews using PresetMagician which looks very useful - it can also save the patches as NKS but doesn't add tags (unless they are there already) so for Tyrell I prefer to do it by hand since tagging is what takes the longest anyway and that way I just tag as I save. But it's great for generating previews.


If anyone just wants to convert their Tyrell patches to NKS though and isn't worried about tags then it seems a quick tool for doing that - if you are on Windows that is (I'm not)

Converting the Mr Wobble patches now - aren't those by Hakey?

[EvilDragon]

I think they are, yes.

OK, good - these are a masterclass in sound design, some of the best-crafted patches I've come across - considering the simplicity of the synth itself they are very diverse.

I need to find out if she's OK with me posting NKS versions (and also how to atribute her under "Author')

Thanks for the heads up on those. Never downloaded them, but just checked them out and great stuff. There are modulation assignments in some of these patches that just don't seem possible to create from the Tyrell front-end. For instance: a few patches have VCA1 Pan as a modulation target but I don't see that option available in the list of targets. Any ideas how that's being done? Did a prior version expose more modulation targets?

haha yeah it's a super secrit hidden param known only to those few people who read the manual (or read about it on the beta forum)

'Unison voices, by default, do not have stereo spread. However, there is a hidden parameter
that can control it. It’s called VCA1: Pan. The easiest way to find it is to scroll through the
presets that come with Tyrell and find one that has this parameter chosen in one of the
modulation target slots of the Matrix section (e.g. TUC – Chemtrails). Now, reset every
parameter of the synth (double-click) except for that particular modulation slot. What you’ll
end up with is an initialized preset with the VCA1: Pan parameter available in the Matrix
section. You can even save that state of the synth as a preset for future use.'

I used it myself too in some of my bank patches (some of which I made while it was still in beta)

Manual you say? Fascinating!

Thanks!

Urs, i was wondering, why there was stereo spread option excluded from the final code?
