Hi there,

I was testing out a synth (vst export) that I put up in the examples area in cubase and it seems that a problem that was driving me nut before is appeared again.

When I set the track to loop (say two bars) it drops out on the first beat, until some unknow time with the loop it decides to play again, once the loop resets it drops out again etc.

Is it something I have done wrong? It has to be! Its very fustrating. I really need an answer to this. I don't get it. How do I fix it? Heres the post in the examples area for the link to the osm and vst:

A quick little bass synth...still in progress.

edit that: preset like "bummer" and "seer" have the problem above and they stop play while recording without the loop on. Just drops out. exe doesn't do this but then there not host to running it. Other presets work as expected. confussed...

tried to take out overdrive in filter series, tried replacing preset manager, tried to adjust the amount of modulation the env has on the filter etc...no good nothing changes.

I am using SX3 and no longer have other host to try it out in, however, I tried other SM synths and they are performed correctly which leads me to believe it something I did. Any help please.

I'm planning to test the bassynth but I hadn't much spare time, still.. hoping that in the next week I'll try it, I'm on Cubase SX2, then I can report back some notes... A.

Think I figured it out...only took a few hours and some panic (lol) but thats all part of the fun I guess. I had the filter envelope set to hold and retrigger. I turned these off and it works fine, its always the small things you don't see. But I don't understand it actually, I didn't have to do that on some other stuff thats in the making. I test these to compare to the this current one and they seem to work fine. Looked at the example synth and the filter env is set for no Holding as well. Wonderful little referance synth.

It works now and that makes my evening since I can now return to composing. Posting the update to the examples post.

synthmaker is quite a powerful program, but these kind of inconsistency between osm and exported behaviour is what gave me the most headache too, dont give up:)
