MSoundFactory (FM synthesis): Are envelopes loop-able?

[Autobot]

I in the middle of demoing MSoundFactory and consider to buy it (see this thread: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=544332&p=7743396#p7743396).

I'm very interested in the FM capabilities. Now I stumbled over the lack of loop-able envelopes like in Live's Operator or FM8. I'm sure I missed something because I can not believe that there is no possibility. I hope a MeldaVeteran can help me. Thanks.

You can use the LFOs for that. You can make every shape you want and have a lot of control.
Or you use the Tremolo part of an Envelope as a loop-able part. In the tremolo section you can draw your own shape, timing etc ...

Yes, loopable envelopes is my favourite SY77 feature - like nbyte said I think you could make any shape you could want in MSF.

Hi Autobot,
In Msf, you don't have "classic" loop-able envelopes but you can make a lot of interesting things:
You could draw your own multi points envelope and/or draw your own envelope tremolo shape and adjust some options: rate, tremolo start in decay stage, tremollo continues in release stage... the envelope tremolo is bipolar by nature but you can draw your own unipolar shape if you need.

Just use any LFO and use custom shape, there you can draw whatever your heart desires

Thanks. Is there any thought about implementing looping envelopes or mseg's?
thanks

You can loop inside of the envelopes now. You can also edit the loops to make whatever shape of LFO you'd like inside. On top of that you can create whatever attack and release shape you'd like.

LFO's with custom shape are loopable.
Attacks use custom shape and is initial envelope.
Envs are not loopable. But they have "Tremolo" feature, which provides the possibility for looping inside it, again with custom shapes if needed.
