Hi

 

Am I correct to understand MTM can do program change (PC) on SDS 7?

If so, have anyone tested PC on the same note?

What I’m curious about are how gracious are SDS 7 handling PC while its playing?

 

If a sound has a long decay and there is a program change and no new trigger, will SDS7 hold the envelope open given the new preset has also has a long decay? 

If so effects like chromatic steps or noise volume change should then be possible. Anyone tested this?

 

My test with gate voltage to hold the envelope open rather than trigger has proven to be a little unpredictable so far. But I don’t have the possibility to do  fast program changes yet so I’m wondering if this is worth pursuing?
