Hi guys Wondering if anyone fancies having a look at this synth for me. It's for my students so that they can play around with modulators on various parameters. Couldn't be bothered trawling through KVR so decided to build my own. There's a couple of things I need a little help with. Firstly, I've a spare destination slot on the each of the EG's so was wondering what people thought would be the most useful addition there. I thought about delay time but changing this cancels all output from the delay unit.... Secondly, I'm experiencing some strange things using the PC keyboard as the MIDI source - Every now and again I get stuck notes which don't release and also keys go 'missing'. Some keys - usually the ones that get stuck stop triggering sound. A restart of SM doesn't cure this. After a while of playing around I can end up with only a handful of notes still standing!

Any help/thoughts/FB would be most appreciated

P.S if anyone fancies making any more presets for the synth and mailing them to me that'd be great too. Apparently there's the possibilty of being able to edit/transfer preset files via spreadsheets coming soon! It'd be nice to see what other people can do with the synth. Hopefully it also help the students....

Cheers Galaa

You could replace the stock delay with a coded one.. with a coded delay it is possible (actually easier) to have it not reset after a length change. But modulating the delay time can give unexpected and sometimes unpleasent results... I'd try it with Sam's fractional allpass delay code that can be found HERE.
