OK then, I'll get in touch with KVR.

Hi, I think you got in touch with me by email. I think your issue is that you're expecting automation of these parameters to trigger a note, because that's what happens when you click on the waveform (i.e. change position & amp) on the interface.

That's because "Mouse Trigger" mode simulates triggering a MIDI note to make it easier & more immediate to set sounds up. When sequencing from your DAW you'll have to program in some MIDI notes and then automate the position & amp separately.

I hope that solves your problem. If not, it's a bug!

OK, Live 9.1 purchased. I'll be testing on it in Windows to try and improve stability over the coming days. If anyone has crashes or issues there, let me know with as much detail as possible when they seem to occur, and I'll get this thing nice and solid.

I think some companies give NFR copies to developers - may be worth a try.

Cheers,

Go with that, it's a great way to keep in closely touch with your customers as well.

Actually I was sending notes to mangle so it may not be the problem
Did you test automation in FL? I really can't say if it's me not using it correctly or a bug :S

I hve to spend some more time on this

Cheers

I don't actually own FL. There are so many DAWs, and my resources are limited! Maybe I will have to start asking to see if some companies do indeed give out NFR copies.

So ... will The Mangle work in XP?

Some also have Demoversions that don't expire but prevent you from saving etc. or free lite-versions. Could be enough for testing.
You have a great product to show for it, so I't say it's worth a try...

First off - love the synth! Really nice, and fun to play around with. Havent gotten to any bugs yet, i think, which is good!

Anyway, i have a feature request that i would love in the mangle! I'd like to automate the position so that, at note press, it starts moving forward from the position. Essentially, playing the waveform. This should happen at every key press, so the position should reset to the beginning indicator at each note. Pretty much like padshop works.

I have gotten half way there. By automating the position with a sawtooth LFO, the position changes like i want it to, except in reverse! So, a mirrored sawtooth LFO is greatly appreciated. Also, the LFO does not reset at note press, so it just wanders.

This would make the synth fantastic!

Hope i wasn't too confusing

I hope this too , but I think it's hard

Just got this too. First vst i bought since almost 2 years, that means something, i guess

.

I managed to crash it a few times in FLstudio 11, mostly with the factory presets (synth sequences freeze it everytime). When i created my own stuff, it worked flawlessly so far (beside the Controls are inverted with Midilearn in FL)

I think a little Mastersection with a Limiter and a Volume Knob could become handy. if iam goin to crazy with the grain rate/length, it sometimes begin to clip internaly.

Well, overall iam allrdy quite happy with it even in its current state.

The 0.6.b1 update fixes the grain quantization problem I had with the synth sequence preset - nice

Just bought. Lots of fun.

I'd like to see the modulation amounts be automatable as well.
