Record Proposed Feature or fix Details How does it work now, or is it new? Why would this help? This change does not affect previous programs because . .? How will this work with the current switches and displays? Your name or email address (optional)
1 Ping pong sequences Would play sequence until end, then in reverse until start point. Sequences only play in the forward direction Would allow for more complex sequences Sequencer addition. Old sequences would not be programmed with it. Would add in the sequencer above RST, denoted as PNG breakfaster11
2 MIDI note plays sequencer step Each step of the sequencer is mapped to a MIDI note and is triggered when that note is played. Essentially this would let you use the EVO's sequencer in a similar way to a SERGE TKB. 16 MIDI notes would address 16 sequencer steps with their associated parameters. Would be a very nice performance option. It's simply another sequencer mode. Within the sequencer trigger mode selection, select "Adrs" or something similar. phdinfunk@yahoo.co.uk
3 BPM Synced Envelopes Would allow A,D,S,R, or all of the above to by synced to a time division of the BPM Envelopes currently are traditional ADSR More intense sequences with more rhythmic options available, using the same times available in Sync LFO BPM times would appear above the 0-100 present in existing ADSR controls (similar to how Sync LFO is displayed) The extra sync options would appear above the existing 0-100 range. Similar to the LFO, and Delay breakfaster11@msn.com
4 Synced glide Would quantize glide time to match the time it takes to travel one or more steps Glide is unquantized More acidic sequences Old programs will not have this value present New values above the existing options in the Glide parameter breakfaster11
5 Reduce evolver output by 6db when in polychain mode reduce output of evolver by 6 db when in polychain mode to match voice output of PER/PEK evolver is about 6db hotter than the PER/PEK pretty obvious no
6 Sine and Random Sine Lfo modulation shapes Add 2 new Lfo shapes to the Lfo section It's nothing new Smoother Lfo modulation shapes for mellower sound manipulation. Take some of the edge off the evolver/polyevolver sound. 2 more modulation options. It's not implemented in them. Just 2 more shapes in Lfo selection MuzikB2002@yahoo.com
7 Chord=Osc's Evolver would allow you to make chords by assigning each note an oscillator, up to four notes could be held. (See Korg Mono/Poly) new Would allow us to use chords, and create different sonic textures. You'd have to enable it for the program. add to key mode or trigger mode popsicko@hotmail.com
8 Arpeggiator ummm . . . Use one of the sequences as a programmable arpeggiator. new We would have a programmable arpeggiator! Not just a pre-made seq, we could play wahtever note we wish. It would have to be enabled. Maybe Arp as a destination for the seqs, or trigger/key mode. popsicko@hotmail.com
9 sweepable OSC shapes OSC shape is not a modulation destination for LFOs new you can currently sweep OSCs only with 3.0 evolvers via MIDI CC. it would just be nice to use a internal LFO. this sounds sweet on the digital OSCs... just adds another destination to the LFO it would add SH1 SH2 SH3 SH4 to the LED readout noti
10 additional MIDI CC support not necessary but it would be nice to have complete MIDI implementation new all the existing mod destinations should have their own CC. it's 3.0's greatest feature and it just seems not all the way implemented yet. easily implemented into existing system not affected noti
