It's not yet confirmed. I do hope so that it will. :)

I'm pretty sure it'll come.

I've been fine with just the 2 mod slots in RePro-1 because RePro-1 is monophonic so I just use automation when I want to add a bit of extra modulation (which I do all the time).

Of course one can do the same thing using RePro-5 in mono mode, but that does not account for polyphony or unison. I already know I'll end up with a ton of unison presets with some per voice modulation... add in the per voice distortion and 3 or 4 mod slots would be so much more flexible.

btw, from looking at the GUI, it is not clear if RePro-5 will only be unison for mono, or if one can have say unison 2 and play 4 voices.

It's "only" unison with 1 x N voices.

Urs (and others),
If you just answered this question, I did not understand your answer. In Unison mode, can you pan individual voices?

A crazy thought just came to my mind. "Burning Down the House" is my favorite Talking Heads song. During the synth lead (around 1:53 to ~2:20 and probably more) Jerry Harrison said in a Keyboard magazine decades ago that a Prophet 5 was used with a Boss T-Wah pedal. I've heard mp3 demos of the T-Wah with guitar and to me it sounds surprisingly boring. I know this is probably premature and a big long shot, though if Repro-5 could somehow replicate that lead T-Wah Prophet 5 sound, it would be very cool.



My Korg TR-Rack (rack mount version of the Trinity keyboard synth) has a wah effect that is pretty cool, but can't get that Talking Heads sound.

Yes, via voice pan trimpots on the Tweaks page.

Post

If there are pre-voice pan trimpots may be it makes sense to have per-voice tune trimpots as well?
Murderous duck!

That's the Slop knob.

Slop is different - one thing is general per voice pitch imperfection other thing is pitch imperfection evaluation.

No per-voice osc tune pots, sorry. We did this in Diva and it's one of the reasons some people find Diva "too complicated".

Hm if Diva is complicated then Bazille and Zebra is not understandable? :)

Notice the word "some".

Post

Will the parameters for per-voice tune (or at least Stack) still be exposed in the plugin, so that with an alternative skin they could be reached?

(Similarly to how you can, for example, add master transpose to Zebralette even though the official skin doesn't support that feature.)

So, this will detune the voices also in non-unison mode?

What about envelope timing? Did the Prophet-5 have consistent env times between the voices?

Post

My god guys... please let us finish this thing :lol:

There is no per-voice or per-oscillator detune. There's just slop and the different oscillator models on the tweak page.

We can certainly put all of this in. But then we'd price it more like Diva than like Satin. Mostly because, if we add all feature requests, we'll end up with something that looks a lot more like Diva than whatever we're emulating.
