Perfect, thank you! All up and running, both with the lemur daemon running on my Mac and using iRig to connect directly to my AxeFx. Works great!
Now a more difficult question...how difficult would it be to say replace the multi delay with format or synth block?
Thanks!
Pete
Glad you got it working.
The Synth and Formant blocks are on the second group of buttons. Tap the small '1' button that is next to the AMP button to reveal this second group of buttons.
I love playing with the Synth page:
Drop a Synth block in a preset
TRACK=OFF on all three voices
Select waveform shape for all three voices (default has voice 2 and 3 off, be sure to enable these)
With the keyboard in MONO mode, tap all three VOICE SELECT buttons
Set KEYBOARD MODE SELECT = FREQ
Now tap the middle C on the keyboard in the template. This sets the frequency of all voices to 261.6 Hz.
Set MODE = POLY
Set KEYBOARD MODE SELECT = SHIFT
Now you can use the keyboard in the template to play the synth with 3-voice polyphony. With these settings the voices sustain as if a sustain pedal is held down. Voice allocation is very simple in this mode: voices are assigned sequentially. So if you tap the same note three times you get all three voices sounding the same note.
If you set KEYBOARD MODE SELECT = PLAY, the voices are gated using one of two methods. With PLAY GATE MODE = SYX, the voices are turned on and off using SysEx commands. You can see this in action as you play because the V1, 2, 3 Level faders will be moving as you play the keyboard. Using sysex like this to turn the voices on and off can create pops or clicks as the voice is turned on and off, especially when using the sine waveform type.
With PLAY GATE MODE = CC, the template sends CC messages to gate the voices, but it is up to the user to create a preset that has the required mapping described below.
Synth Voice 1 Level mapped to CC 25 (EXT CTL 10)
Synth Voice 2 Level mapped to CC 26 (EXT CTL 11)
Synth Voice 3 Level mapped to CC 27 (EXT CTL 12)
I do not know if others have tried using the synth block in this way, so I think we should consider this an experimental feature.
