Re: Martin - pick a GUI for Karplus synth?

Post by k brown »

Well after a bit more mucking and head-scratching I got partway there technically - figured out how to bypass the KS internal noise source and connect the synth's osc and/or noise. But yeah, even with Martin's correlations above, I can't figure out which controls I can eliminate and still have it function somewhat as described (sketchily) in the Accelerator manual. Panel real estate is limited and Martin's build has several controls not on the Accelerator. Also the Acc. String Filter has three mod inputs: Tune, Feedback and Damp, Martin's K-S has no mod inputs and I can't quite work out how/where they'd be added.

I can buy some real estate buy ditching the EQ - better to have the K-S; then I can just include all Martin's controls; if I can just figure out the three modulation inputs.

Yeah that sounds better! I've never been a great fan of having eq on a synth. You can do that easily in the DAW.
I expect someone will put me right on that view! :lol:

BTW, I didn't see a preset manager in the synth. Maybe it was hidden away somewhere...

Cheers

Yes all the versions I've saved have one - the first one I posted, it's probably hidden behind a panel GUI.

To bed now - 3am here.

Yep.

I do think I'll do two versions of this, because I do Like the sound of the 'country boy's' comb filter.

Do I need to worry about this inside the K-S IV?

I fixed this by toggling the Ruby inside the 'error alert' module off, then on.

@Martin -

The 'randomOsc4' synth is truly beautiful. Eagerly awaiting further development. :P

Two By Three's GUI is based on a commercial plug-in (Ableton Operator), so best to stay away from that. Since you seemed pleased with the GUI for RandomOsc 4, here's K-S IV (with Spogg's additions and presets) in that style.
