Expanded modular Subject description: version 1.40 Exp |
 |
|
Hello everybody, this is my first day on yhis forum. I am new to modular synthesis. so it is very difficult for me to program patches (yet).
I have bought a modular and i don´t know if it is expanded. it sais in the beginning screen: version 1.40 Exp, but i am not sure or convinced.
Is there a patch that i can test on my modular. Can someone post a patch that will clarify if i have bougt an expanded version?
thnx |

You better believe it, it's expanded
But if you don't you can make a new patch and have it in a slot that is the only one to be active. Then just throw in modules (oscillators for instance, doesn't matter too much) in the (upper) voice area until you have a patchload of somewhere from 51 to 100%. Then raise the voice count and see if you get to 4 or to 8 for the max.
And of course.
edit: I moved this topic to the NM section, that seemed more appropriate.

Thanks
Altough i have a hard time (since yesterday) to understand the editor , modular and trying to program some relevant sound, I am very happy to see that this is a very nice community (forum) that could help me a lot in understanding the modular. I should have bought this thing earlier (f nice sound, I don't need my korg z1 and NR2 anymore). I think that I am going to read and try a lot of things these days.
Some of the patches of the zipped file (8mb) don't work (I do not hear a thing when I play the keys). Is this normal or do I have to change a setting? |

One some of them you have to push “run”
(because they are sequencer patches, you have to start a clock)
some others probably don’t work because of OS updates.
(some modules in v1.4 use a little bit more DSP since the first version of the OS, making old patches go over 100%) |

A lot of them are far lower than 100%. Do do not work. |

Could you give some examples ? No need to post the patches, just the creator and the patch name will do (as we have http://electro-music.com/g2patches.php ) _________________ Jan

Ok, i'll have a go ...

| This is a MIDI generator, it assumes keyboard playable patches to be present in slots B and C which it will then sequence.

| This patch is muted, see the little mute button to the right of the patch's main volume knob (in the toolbar). Can be tricky to find

| The bottom sequencer in the left column is used to control volume, it is set to all zero values for some reason -> no sound. The envadr module is set to very short times, not very helpful either. Guess this was a quick thingy to make some point in some article on the forum.

Chet
| Is a keyboard patch that works here, strange. Some of Chet's patches however need a breath controller or some modifications before they will sound. It's a must nearly to read the posts that acompany Chet's patches in order to see what they are good for.

Hmm, I really wouldn't have thought there could be that many different reasons  _________________ Jan

OK thanks, I am glad that nothing is strange about my modular.
Just stupid newbie concerns. |
