A 'bit' too far for me I'm afraid - especially at that time

I think part of the problem is that the MIDI spec doesn't define exactly what they mean by 'expression'. From time to time I've MIDI-learned it to perform a combination of filter cutoff, and reduced volume range on brass sounds.

I'm grateful for the discussion. I guess sometimes getting no solution from others really is the catalyst you need to learn more about a subject matter and create a solution for yourself. You were right to persist carefully, but you still got lucky. That voltage calculation I gave is correct, for a...

The default functions are fine. Any half decent softsynth should be able to re-assign them if it wants to, with nothing in the middle interfering. Also, zipper noise? These days, are there really synths that are so poorly designed, with processors so under-spec they can't handle interpolation? As th...

Interesting. I just dived into the Yoshimi code (here be dragons) and it seems we get it wrong-ish. The individual part insertion effects are applied before expression, but the system effects are applied afterwards. However... You can MIDI-learn the incoming expression value, route it wherever you l...

I just use Yoshimi's built in reverbs - good enough for me.

Going from float to 24bit would any artifacts actually be audible? Generally, or just without dither? It largely depends on the specific material. In most cases id say probably not, but fades can often expose quantizing distortions. However, correct dithering is so easy to do, why wouldn't you? Wel...

Pleased people are enjoying this - in spite of my somewhat 'unusual' release style

Oops

I guess I should have included the link.... It's been an 'odd' day today :/

It's here!

Here we go
Some of you may have heard slightly different versions of about half of these before, and there are a couple that I was a bit twitchy about, but one has to draw the line at some point.

They don't make 'em like they used to. Is that one old enough to have all real transistors, like with three legs?

It's OK, the trolls are now under control... I think.
There seems to still be an out of tune tine on the music box though.
Should all be sorted today though

As you read this somewhat verbose missive, you get the uncanny (albeit accurate) feeling that it's principle function is to wrest your attention from other - arguably more important - matters. However, continue reading and you will become aware that the title of this topic is also the title of a som...

Well, if nothing else, this is proof (if needed) that everyone is different

I have no idea how I do it. Some times it just happens, other times it doesn't. The only thing I'm sure of is that it doesn't work if I sit down with the intention of composing something new.

Very enjoyable music, and lovely smooth playing. Seriously impressed.

Making your own valves ehh?

Try here!

I think the only things I have that don't have a specific practical use they were bought for, are the pictures on the walls. Almost all of those were bought from the artists on my travels - so in a sense, their 'purpose' is/was to support the artists.
