  1. OK, so that one wasn’t quite there as one voice jumped an octave. This whole thing is basically a huge maths problem. By slimming down to three voicings and changing the direction of the bass movement, I’ve managed to find a set of numbers that work. This time all the voice leading is smooth: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ThpNfKymROLUouZDZadNYNl7B3ldDZ4M/view?usp=drivesdk And, because I've only used three oscillators and two flexi slots, I could have the synth play the root notes and there’s room for more modulation madness. I’m going to see if I can work out some combinations that work for minor II-V-I progressions too.
  2. One very good reason is that it forms part of the preset so involves zero fiddling around with settings once programmed. It’s actually a very good sounding drive and I’ve used it in many of my patches.
  3. Probably would be. Code space is pretty full. You could plug in a sequencer to the MIDI IN port. Keystep would be a good choice. The only FX in FI are chorus/delay, EQ and overdrive and they are all really useful.
  4. Boot menu! To enter the boot menu, press the PROGRAM (left) footswitch while powering on the pedal. Turn the PARAMETER dial to “Note Off Level” to see the name of a parameter and turn it clockwise to any other position to see that parameter’s value. The value is adjusted using the EDIT dial. Step through the parameters by pressing the left footswitch again. When editing is complete, turn the FI off and on again. The aforementioned two parameters of the boot menu are given below: (RESET ALL (“rS”) Value: 0, 1. (Default on reset is 0.) Change to 1 to reset all sound para­meters to default (5) upon power-on. The default program loaded at power-on will be reset to 1. @HogBranch
  5. Are you on the latest firmware? If so, did you perform a “reset all” via the boot menu after installing the update? If not, the tune base value will be incorrect. When tuning, only the central horizontal line will show when the note is in tune.
  6. @SICbass the overdrive on its own is totally useable. You could easily use the FI for distortion.
  7. I’ve cracked doing a smooth II-V-I using expression to change the chords with minimal internal voice movement. The only thing I haven’t yet managed is to get the 5th to become a 6th and then go back down again as there are no symmetrical transformation curves (I’m tempted to ask for one though). So the V chord uses a 5th instead of the better-sounding 6th. Still, pretty cool and not tied to any key signature at all. Might be better if I leave the 5th out altogether and then I could double the root to have all the voices on synth. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qfy0AsciYlykkMh4FyH8AAL-szf01ik1/view?usp=drivesdk
  8. For Mac, I don’t know. On pc you can move the taskbar to the side. Didn’t we do that on your Mac too? Is there view tab at the top to resize to percentages? There is in the new editor but it’s ages since I used the old one that I can’t remember. Otherwise, plug in a larger second screen and use split monitoring.
  9. I told you they were in there, just a matter of playing around enough to get them. It’s about striking the balance between the AD/ADSR envelope and the envelope follower. Actually using more of the former and less of the latter seems key. There’s so much variation possible too. I might try and further tweak these to add expression control of one or more parameters.
  10. Posted a couple more tonight as had more free time. The “Filter Schmilter” patches use, as you might guess, no filter at all. All the harmonic movement is by envelope controlling oscillator volume to dynamically create foldover distortion.
  11. Haven’t done a speed clip, but FI tracks all day long at low E: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WQAQQIQ3zhb3S4hxCJlq8BYt1opXWKhp/view?usp=drivesdk
  12. I’ve added a couple of new patch samples to the folder. Link at bottom of the first post.
  13. First complete draft of the new manual is done.
  14. Beautiful. I always wanted one with the mutes and recessed plate. I sold my (natural) sterling last year to fund moving house and wish I still had it. Seriously tempted by this.
  15. Essential if you want to use the Editor to put new patches on your pedal, move around existing ones or create your own.
  16. You can simply load the latest one that’s on the website. Currently v2.22. Link is in the first post of this thread.
  17. Roland UM-One. The sound I created is on the v3 update which isn’t out yet - I’m beta testing it.
  18. It’s a very different thing to turn input signals into oscillator outputs and another to generate MIDI data. I asked about this on the FI.
  19. Source Audio has midi over USB. Or did you specifically mean 5-pin MIDI DIN sockets?
  20. Managed to tear myself away from manual writing and try some patch writing. A new feature that just got implemented a few days ago as part of the flexis has helped me to nail something I was trying earlier with only partial success. Behold - a pad sound that switches between rootless voicings of m7b5, m7, 7 and Maj7 chords via the expression pedal. I’ve even managed to get the ninth to move down to the octave for the m75 voicing to give the typical voicing for that chord. These new features really are amazing. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RZ1sySW33BoJn4nCSrHj8940yv_mw81E/view?usp=drivesdk @GisserD I told you I could do it!
  21. There are already things that do this: https://www.andertons.co.uk/sonuus-g2m-version-3-audio-1-4-jack-to-midi-converter-for-guitar-bass-voice-and-wind-instruments-sonuusg2m?lgw_code=16284-SONUUSG2M&gclid=CjwKCAjwwvfrBRBIEiwA2nFiPXsB8enQjvV96KG1BJQO_RSVLnb5zmB3Xy374j34CH34e8A_N8BIrRoCnQAQAvD_BwE
  22. I guess so. I contacted my local shop to order one before it even went live.
  23. Have you used it with an expression pedal to get the morphing I programmed?
  24. 4 is my favourite too, the drive gives it more bite.
  25. Out of interest, which ones did you like? I’m hoping to get some more done once I finish the FI manual.
