Xpantastic!

Hi folks,

I bought Xplorer a while back. It has the ability to make a random patch.

The problem is, the patch can't be played on the keyboard because that 
aspect is randomised too.

What patch settings do I need on the Xpander to make a random patch 
keyboard tracked? So that it plays the notes you play, but the rest of 
the random patch.

The guy said read the manual, but I still can't figure it out!

All the best,

Jeremy.

Don�t own Xplorer ...

But Page 2 of OSC1 and OSC2 offer controll sources for precise pitch 
control:

a) MOD = KEYBD
b) MOD = LAG

press the related switches,- p.ex.:

the switch below [KEYBD] will "underline" (activate) KEYBD as the 
control source,- or ...
the switch below [LAG] will "underline" (activate) LAG as the control 
source which is usefull when PORTAMENTO (Glide) is desired.


hope that helps

P.

Hi Jeremy,
Long time:-).   I don't have Xplorer,  the link seems dead.  I was wondering does it randomize the matrix mods also? If so, you may need to go through the matrix mods,  and clear any modulations  to the VCOs.  
At the moment without any documentation for Xplorer that's all I can think of. 
and    What PeWe posted,   check that out also.
Best 
Karl

I tried adjusting the keyboard sources. Although they weren't set on the 
'normal' patches, setting them on a random patch had no effect. It 
wouldn't track pitch to the keyboard.

Thanks for the help though!

Jeremy.

Yup, that's what I'd have to do, and it's kind of beyond me. :-(

Well thanks for helping.

I tried PeWe's suggestion (see other post).

The only way to get this to work, was if the author of Xplorer could 
make it so it tracked random patches.

Never mind though.

Cheers,

Jeremy.
