Modulation range
mkastrup | Posted on Sat 16 May 2020, 11:43 PM Hi all,As a long time user of FM based instruments i made the following observation: The Modulation range is rather limited, let me give you an example: I set VolEG to decay over 1 sec, then i go to ModMatrix and set source as NoteNum and Destination as OP1EG Speed. Ratio is 200% Doing this will have key C1 play the VolEG at 1 sec and the key C6 play the VolEG at 0.5 sec, thats hardly a difference over that long keyspan. I had hoped that i could make C1 play 1 sec and C6 play at least 0.1 sec with that long keyspan. When i try to use Vel Sensitivity on the MOD page its a similar problem, the Velocity range affecting an OP is kinda limited. These observation were made when i tried to re-create 2 famous DX patches: Bass Solid and Full Tines. For reference i used Yamaha TX802 and Natives FM8 Would it be possible to have a switch on the ModMatrix page for like Ratio x10 or will that create some outer bound problems ? /Michael |
