Thanks for all the nice words :-)

When I get time I'll make a "low" screen resolution edition. My own is 1280x1024 so I didn't get this problem. To be honest I didn't even think of it. Sorry...

Hope to have a smaller edition ready soon, but cant make any promises. What would you say should be the maximum size in pixels?

Best regards,
Ninecows

I'll be holding my breath. No promises I know, but I would be gratefull beyond words of this world if you make such a version.

However, if you do, I'll make you some patches to show my respect and gratitude, and that is a promise!

Now about the size: Just anything that fits into a 1024 x 768 resolution. However it would be nice if it only takes up about half or two thirds of the screen cause I usually make music on the run on my laptop and therefore I need the left side of my screen to play it from the pianoroll window in sonar. Some synth takes up so much space,(e.i. Predator) that I can't play the pianoroll without putting half of the synth out of sight.

Best Regards

And again: congrats on the synth, its a winner for sure!

I'm pleased to say that I'm pretty close to a small version sized 588x524 pixels. I only need to move every one of the 256 pins of the matrix :roll:

The labels are pretty hard to read, but I'll "ship" it with the original large one for references and once you get used to where everything is its ok I think.

Done! Download the zip-file again and you'll find that it contains a large and small version (with different ID's of course). Hope it fits your screen :-)

All the matrix patches got screewed up in the small one, so you'll have to make some yourself (but you promised that anyway so :hihi: )

Amazing the first synth not to be seen by both Chainer and Nuendo, too bad was really looking forward to trying it.

Did you look for it under effects/VST's and not under instruments/VSTi's in your host? It's classified as a VST because of the audio inputs, but works fine as a synth in Reaper and apparently other hosts as well.

Otherwise please let me know. I can always make a build classified as a synth, but with the audio inputs disabled

You are a freeware angel! Thank you so very much. The GUI is perfect, just perfect. I just thought that there was something entirely wrong until I noticed your remark about the patches. Patches said nothing and I was wondering if I dared to tell U. :hihi:

Well, A promise is a promise,...now I just have to find that #@%¤ "On" bottom....hmm lets start by connecting an osc to an output....

..eeh..this is going to take a while it seems so have patience with me, please....


Thank you so very much for your efforts once again!

Best Regards

Hmm, now I've moved it for a rescan, and it's there. Bizzare. Thanks ninecows.

Damn the gui is large, are you trying to compete with PolyAna or somethin', cause it takes the crown easily :P :lol:

Looks lovely, but it's only showing up as an effect in Cubase Studio 4. It is not listed in the instrument list, and so cannot be played. Pity. Can you do something about this or advise on a workaround?

Cheers

Hi again NineCows!

I have made my first patch (a Jew harp effect) for you and will compile with others to come. I have no place to upload it though, so can I mail you or is there some place here at KVR to upload banks or something?

This synth sounds just great. An amazing piece of work if you ask me. Never tried the real thing, so I couldn't tell whether it is an accurate emulation or not, but it sounds very analogue to me and it seems to be easy (no lets say "possible"- it is a modular beast for sure)to emulate old school sounds on this one if that is what anyone go for. :)

Just a note: I guess the two version must have different ID's or something, cause you can not transfer a patch from the large edition to the small. Thus, I can only make patches for the small version.


When you are ready to receive wish-lists I would love to see some temposynced modulation on this one so it could be synced to the DAW right on. But thats only for the future. For now, I will sync the machine the old way.

1000 thanks again! :wink:

Im trying small version and it is a little small I guess. It takes up about 2/3 of screan now.....mmmmm...

Anyway, I tried save the basic synth preset in the big version in Tracktion3 and then load that preset into the small version, but it did not work. I got "some parameters could not be loaded" and then internal error?

You're welcome

There's a smaller edition for ya if you download the zip again :-)

I'm using the big one myself (my screen is big enough) as I like to see what I'm doing...

Sounds nasty... :-o Perhaps its because of the different ID numbers for the big and small one? When I made the small I also had to recreate the matrix - deleting modules and copy-pasting them. I'm not sure how this patch transfer works, but I guess it expects the same buttons and knobs to be available and if just one of them got a different id from synthedit then...

I used the small moog knobs in SynthEdit for the small one and scaled the rest according to these, so you'll have to do with that - otherwise I'd had to do a weeks work ;-)

The next version might just be the small one, but with the option of zooming in or opening each module, magnified, in a new panel... but not for now :roll:
