Hi everyone -
OK - sorry for the delay. Here are the list we've found of the most common
requests. There are other good requests, but this is a "community" so we are
trying to pick the most productive for everyone.
The BUGS are not many, as I had thought. For a bug to be worked on - we have
to test each one; see if different units do it, how to hear it and show it
easily. Report back on what you find!! If it is easier to define and locate -
they can FIX it much easier. We'll put Bugs first, just assuming that it's
causing someone out there a big headache in their work. Features are a bonus -
but just as necessary for some as a bug fix.
The list looks reasonable enough that maybe there's no need to vote. I'm
sure they can decide from these which they could or could not do (if ANYTHING
happens at all). But it is far better to send this than the big list of all
ideas, not prioritized. What do you think?
Bugs:
1) Fix Square Wave anomaly (a setting of 52 is currently the true square,
not 50)
2) Portamento: when using portamento (normal mode) on a mono patch with
unison (2) turned on, it seems that only 1 voice is affected - the other seems
to jump right up/down to the destination pitch. Switch port mode to 'chord',
it works as I expected normal to. Is this a bug?
3) VCO Pitch slide - when a note is triggered, the Osc audibly "slides" up
to the new pitch, even with fast engine settings.
4) Sequencer hangs while using the pedal.
Features requested:
1) Polyphonic aftertouch response from MIDI Input
2) Random Patch generator (maybe with limitations on VOL. etc)
3) Knob "fine tune" option to have more gradual parameter changes
4) Sequencer "Latch" mode
5) Random Arpeggiator mode
6) When in MONO mode (high/low/last) "note priority" setting
7) Keyboard HOLD function
8) Send MIDI notes from ARP or SEQ
9) Sync delays to Tempo
10) "Step Entry" on SEQ
