breath controller Subject description: Looking for the quickest response possible on the G2 with a Yamaha breath controller |
|

Hi,
Hope this is the right place to post this. I have a Yamaha breath controller hooked up to the G2 via a MIDI solution breath controller box and its power supply of course. It is said to send after touch and, on the G2, I am using morph to assign it the desired parameter
It all works well, but the response is quite slow. The attack, instead of going ta ta ta, is going wa wa wa…
Does anyone know if a quicker way exists?
Best regards,

Hi!
Are you sure than you cannot change the env curve on the Yamaha breath controller ? I don't know about breath controller but generaly MIDI keyboard have a couple of preset to adjust env curve.
Have you tried with another synth too ? |

Hi.
I'm usually using my breath controller with a Yamaha CS01, which is totally analogue. That means that the breath controller doesn't have to suffer the midi artefacts due to the 128 steps. The staircase effect is probably smoothed inside the G2, which slows the response. I don't know if there is a way around that, this is beyond my skills
I don't think changing the curve would help, though I could try on my MIDI solution breath controller box, but I really do not think it would make the response any quicker.
Thanks, _________________ Jean-Philippe Rykiel, the blind one. |

I no longer own a G2, but if memory serves correctly, the overall response of the morph assignments becomes increasingly sluggish as you add more of them. When multiple slots are active, all with many assignments, it can become pretty bad actually. (I think the same holds true for MIDI continuous controllers assigned to knobs, but I'm not sure anymore.)
If you want super-fast response, use the performance controller outputs from the device module and hard-wire your desired control routings into the patch directly using mixer modules. This requires more effort obviously, but has the benefit that you can label the various modulation amounts for different destinations and group them together on the panel for ease of use when fine-tuning the responsiveness of the patch. |
