Feature Req Table 5

A blank template.Place your new (or reworked) feature requests here. Guidelines: 1) The change should not affect previous Programs. 2) The change must be implemented with the current switches/displays, without too much confusion. 3) The new feature should be in addition to current operation, as opposed to replacement. 4) The feature suggestion should be accompanied by a description of how it actually will be implemented and operate.

| Record | Evolver, Rack, Keyboard or All? | 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 | All | osc 1+2 as mod sources | osc1+2 as mod source in modulators section | new | then analog audio modulation of all the current destinations would be possible: freq mod, pw mod, lfo freq mod, etc. | it will not affect old programs | it will only be two additional mod sources in modulators section. | biipsynth |
| 2 | All | Global setting to start up in either Program or Combo mode | For live players utilizing combo mode exclusively, its a manual touch every startup | ...it's a global setting | perfectly | caseyprinceton | ||
| 3 | all | support for alternate temperaments | before the 20th century, several tuning systems were used that gave more beat-free intervals than equal temperament | it is new | it would be easier to play early music on the evolver as well as contemporary microtonal music. alternate tunings can currently be implemented on the evolver by sending pitch bends along with midi note ons, but this is very cumbersome for the poly evolver since pitch bends are global. | equal temperament would still be the default. | the temperament would be changed only through midi using the midi tuning extensions documented here: http://www.midi.org/about-midi/tuning-scale.shtml | Chris Allert (evy128@morelater.com) |
| 4 | All | Smoother attack on envelopes. | If attack times are set to zero and cut-off low a popping sound appears in the beginning of the sound. It would be nice to be able to turn ultra fast envelopes on/off. When turned off the envelopes would still be as fast as e.g. the Prophet~5 but would not pop in the beginning. | It would be easier to create soft mellow sounds but still have fast attack. | A | E.g. a soft switch in the Global section. | demokid@home.se | |
| 5 | All | More MIDI CC support in the sequencer. | It would be nice to have better control over external MIDI devices when using the internal sequencer, LFO’s. E.g. edstinations for MIDI CC Cut-off, Resonance, Envelope amount, Filter Decay amount. | New | The sequencer could control even more thing over MIDI. Why buy a Doepfer MAQ 16/3 when you can get the evolver and get a great sounding synthesizer. ;) | No new hardware, only software (I think) | ||
| 6 | Mono Evolver Keyboard, maybe the Keyboard too. | The ability to edit only one chained voice, when polychain is active. | A software switch on the MEK to select what voice to edit in the polychain. | Now, it is impossible to edit only one voice on the polychain (or I didn't find it :) . | Because the ergonomy of the MEK is perfect for fast editing. | no | An addition in "Misc Params" section, for fast access = Voice to Edit, and the number of the voice. Maybe the capacity to edit one/two or more voices in the same time (or Copy/Paste Voice capacity) | ludu.ludu@gmail.com |
| 7 | All | Midi out modulation | Add a Midi out to the modulation destination matrix. | new | perfect for sync another synth with the lfo evolver | no | just add an option | ludu.ludu@gmail.com |
| 8 | Rack, Keyboard | "Free Run" Combo Mode uses program data only | each evolver voice can be played as a independent standalone evolver | slot for four evolver voices (programs) | For live situation, no interrupion when changing programs/banks, continous playing of the seq is possible | no | yes | modular@smile.ch |
| 9 | Rack , Keyboard | Combo Mode: Names of selected programs | Program names can be displayed in Combo mode | more user friendly | no | don't know | modular@smile.ch | |
| 10 | all | simple pitch tracker | have a simple, single-note pitch follower available as a modulation source in the audio input. | it is new | you could then make patches that follow the pitch of single-note bass, guitar or any other instrument | it is a new modulation source and, therefore, doesn't need to be used on all patches | not enough knobs without a further layer of key shifting, though it could be added as a further modulation source in mod's 1, 2, 3 and 4 | big_scary_robot@hotmail.com |
| 11 | All | Frequency Modulation with Input Signal | Allow input signal to be modulated by or modulate the oscillators | Input can be modulated by LFO's, etc., but no Ring Mod. or Freq. Mod. | Make cool voice effects since Vocoder is probably out of the question. (right?) | Nothing fundamentally subtracted | New Oscillating source (mod source)/ destination | bri3.@.cornell.edu |
| 12 | PEK | Save edited Programs in Combo Mode | Ability to save edited Programs while in Combo Mode | - | Soundexploration while sequencing the PEK multitimbral ends up in edited/changed Programsounds. These should be saved. | It does | Should work via pressing 'write' then selecting the program to write via its key 1..4 or do a 'save all'. The Programs should then be overwritten or could be saved on a selectable location. the combo should use these programs then and should be saved too. | mooog@cs.tu-berlin.de |
