Re: [CZsynth] CZ1 aftertouch confusion

2011-06-08 by james meagher

Thanks for that idea Bill.

Yeah, regarding the polyphony issue, I've been doing more testing today, and
one of those tests was to play in Tone Mix Mode . . . and sure enough, in
Tone Mix, I can play only *two* notes simultaneously - not four. I tried
resetting the synth, but that seems to have made no difference. It really
just seems like in whatever mode I'm playing I get half the usual
polyphony.

Normal mode with one oscillator - 8 notes can be played at once.
Normal mode with two oscillators - 4 notes can be played at once.
Tone Mix using two tones that each use two oscillators - 2 notes can be
played at once.

So, it's like I have half a CZ1!!!

Waiting for eBay seller to respond to my message regarding this issue (he
also didn't disclose that the LCD backlight was burnt out - listing item as
100% functional) . . . and reading up on the eBay/PayPal Resolution Center
procedures!

James
