......Diva
Exactly, and this is why I probably buy into Diva sooner or later. Funny, I don't care half as much about the Minimoog emulation.

Still, TAL might consider it, or as a separate plugin. Or a reworked 101 :)

Weak spot with digital, but I don't think it does too bad. The Uno LX's master section level often doesn't seem to like being set much past the half-way point, depending on what you're doing. Plus the chorus appears to increase the output level too. Backing off the level should probably help.

I'd like to see the blank spot at the top left of the GUI ( beside the preset box ) used as a numeric display for the active slider value too. Not vital at all, but could be helpful at times.

Bought U-NO-LX, loving it. I'm such a pushover! :D

Hi,

I had a similar issue. In my case I directly copied the registration code. For some reason there were two blanke at the end of the code. This led to a misinterpretation. Maybe this could be the reason in your case too.

Good luck and regards, humphrey

the juno60 has PWM! (and so does this TAL emulation)

PWM on the saw.... Plus there are some other waveforms.

The PWM of the Alpha Juno may also be applied to the saw wave, which is something we hardly see, even nowadays.

I've not tried it yet tbh, only going by what I see here.
Don't trust those with words of weakness, they are the most aggressive

Square and Sub DCOs.

You also get optional shapes for the LFO besides triangle, not found on the Juno 60.

Talking about how it sounds without the chorus is completely silly - it sounds as the Juno-60 sounds without the chorus. I remember reading an interview with Paul Wiffen about the Synthex where he told that, when exhibiting at the Musikmesse, some people came to him, asking to turn off the chorus and telling: "see, without the chorus, it sounds nothing special". :?
The Juno-60 sound is indissociable from the chorus, as well as the U-No-LX.
Regarding the lacking of other bells and whistles, since the goal was to emulate the Juno-60, that was not in the table - it's to be seen as a Juno-60 in software. If people want that sound as usabilitym they have it. If they want omre, maybe it's better to look for other alternatives.
Anyway, I am trying to convince Patrick to come up with something based on this that offers much more, including several features that the Juno obviously misses but people are used to nowadays. Maybe if this is successful he feels encouraged to embark on that adventure. :wink:
Noisemaker Pro! Noisemaker Pro! :hyper:

It could be basically a fusion between this and the current Noisemaker, with a mod matrix and... well that's all it would need, though any extras would be welcome. Obviously it would be payware, which might pave the way for more projects, or at least let him buy a drink or two.

but the hoover sound is made with PWM on a PULSE.
i was just pointing out to Levzi that a feature he thought was missing was infact included.

Incidentally, you can mimic the alpha "saw PWM" (bit of a misnomer but it's stuck!) very well by taking an octave up square that's phase-synced with the saw, amplitude modulating the saw with the square, and then adjusting the pulsewidth of the square (I should have called it pulse from the beginning, but now we've touched the PWM control, it's a pulse I guess. It's like Superman... Sometimes it's Clark Kent the boring old static square, sometimes it's Superpulse, the mighty morphing harmonic warrior).

I'm a fan of the "combed" alpha waveforms, too. You can't animate them, but they're very very raspy.

noisemaker is the worst synth TAL ever made with a completely flawed filter section (and patrick himself will tell u that).
lots of features and colours but in terms of sound it was terrible for even most classic bread and butter sounds ( even a basic 2 saw brass or moogish bass sounds shitty on it)
it beggers belief the praise it receives ....but when i see "who " praises it then i understand (btw if the reviewer from CM would rate my synyth highly i'd really be worried!).
elek7ro was by far the best old synth from TAL ....especially v1.22 which had the uno62 filter included. and i also preferred its classic 3 osc (2+sub)+ noise architecture (although some features of noisemaker were nifty).
a new elek7ro with the new UNO-LX filter would be all i'd need personally.

EDIT:sorry the issue i was eperiencing with the huge filter lag buildup was fixed in 3.21
it is indeed a great synth.
