Hi infuzion,

Don't worry, the float conversion is still working. It's a little problem with your schematic that's the issue here. A Poly section must have a MIDI to Poly in it. The MIDI to Poly is responsible for creating the poly signals as each note is played - the note management. Without this you'll get nothing out of the poly section as it only runs when you play a note.

The Mono section however, runs all the time (so long as you have it connected to a sound out component). To do what you want you just need to drop the Poly to Mono component (as shown below).

Note that this is a hack. You shouldn't really use Poly components in a Mono section. However, since the code behind them is the same it will work. We'll be rectifying this soon so you'll have mono equivalents of the polys for the mono section. This should make things less confusing.

If you need any more info let me know.

OK. I was hoping to make LFOs using OSCs, & test tone generators that will always be on.

Let me know when a less-hacky solution is available.

Thanks for your time!

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
