MHarmonizerMB issues: Clicks in Granular mode & Envelope Tremolo Wrench

Enjoying the Harmonizer, but found a couple issues:

I hear clicks in granular mode (also granular adaptive) when sending it continuous audio such as a multi pitch layered vocal or flute drone loop, while playing the keyboard via my midi keyboard live in legato style (or while sustaining one note and adding another). A click happens both with a note on, and note off.

A click can also be reproduced when there is first no transposition happening (on screen keyboard is at C0), then the Semitones parameter is moved by 1 and returned to 0. A click occurs on the return to 0. But, if Cents is set to 0.1, then no click is produced.

Changing the envelope parameters did not affect the click behavior.

I deduce that this may be due to a CPU saving strategy, which only activates a harmonizer voice when used. The activation and/or deactivation of the voice causes the click. I have not heard the clicks in the other Modes (vocoder, harmonizer, etc), but in my the above context of drone loops, granular mode sounds best.

Also, in the Envelope menu (accessed by the Envelope button on the upper right side of the on screen keyboard), when I click the Tremolo wrench, no menu appears, but instead the entire Envelope window disappears.

Thanks for checking it out!

Could you send me some audio and settings to info@meldaproduction.com? Anyways this is kind of expected - the granular mode extracts and resynthesizes grains and that can hardly be done without any artifacts I'm afraid.

Thanks. I've sent you a video. My description above is maybe not clear. I don't hear artifacts with the general processing, just when triggering a new voice. The envelope setting does help to a degree. More info in the email. Thanks!
