After spending some time with J-8, I'm noticing a certain tone characteristic to it, which can be described as 'pillowy lushness'.

Nice... :tu:

Love the pad sound.

It's also explained in u-he manuals.

"Mouse Wheel Raster: If the wheel on your mouse is rastered (you can feel notches as you roll), activate this."
never heard that before, learn something new every day :)
The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound, purpose‐larger‐than‐the‐self kind of understanding.

Also a small thing but the unison Voices dial goes from 1 to 10 but max unison is actually 7, might want to update the panel to reflect that.
I can't seem to confirm the first bug.

The Cutoff control does not go from 0 to 10 Hz, either :wink:

Maybe it is not an English verb, they are Germans, after all.

Has anyone ever used a mousewheel that didn't have notches when you scroll? I've never used a smooth mousewheel. Seems like an odd feature to need to enable considering all mousewheels I've used have those little stepped notches.

My Logitech MX Master can flip between notched and smooth mode.

I've had my eye on the vertical version for a while, but I keep hoping they'll implement a horizontal scroll on that one too in some future revision. But I apologize for digressing, let's not turn this into a mouse discussion. :oops:

things i noticed:


. vco-2 range minimum value is wrong (should be -48 instead of -36)

. when pitch wheel vco slider is set at 12, range is actually plus/minus 24 semitones

. vcos are phase locked but when cross mod is used, modulation phase is free/random

. lfo sine waveform icon is inverted (wave starts at 0 and goes up)

. lfo square waveform icon is inverted (wave starts at minimum value)

. upper/lower panel tone is different even with identical settings (and no voice tuning)

I think I found a small bug: when switching off 'Hold' while the arpeggiator is running, the last played note hangs.

Why isn't the arp tempo control next to the arp, where there is still empty space?

I had J8 not playing C4 Out of the blue.
Unload and load the Plugin did not fix it, Restarting Reaper did.

When you play that note again, it no longer hangs.

What's interesting is that each layer has its own arp. That allows for some funny sounds in Dual mode :)
