Subject: The LFO's

From: Michael Hawkins <korgpolyex800@...>
Date: 2008-01-05

I just realized I didn't really answer your original question.

There are now two LFO's. One is assigned to VCF and the other to the DCO's. So you can do what you're asking already. I will go back to the LFO's soon because I want to add some other features such as reverse delay. Meaning, the LFO comes on immediately but then stops when the delay time expires. Instead of as it is now where the delay time expires and then the LFO's kick in.

And also, I just have to put two new SLFO's in place to modulate along with the existing LFO's. I like slow sweeps.

And for LFO triangle and saw tooth waves we need to be able to set the initial sweep direction. So that, we can initially send it down or up according to the patch setting.

And I haven't synced the LFO's up to MIDI time code yet. But I definitely want to add that too. That might not be possible at all. I have to work that one out.

Hello, Mike
 
Maybe this is pushing the envelòpe (pun intended) a little too far, but... given the fact that additional EGs are probably on their way... could there be a way to implement some sort of EG to the DCO's pitch, in the light of the accomplished feat of portamento? Or maybe, assigning EG to a specific LFo, so that we could have initial pitch up/down on DCOs for a determined amount of time, in order to create detuned attacks?
 
Also, I also wished for a "2.5" detune setting between 2 and 3... 3 is way detuned, but 2 could use some more detuning...
 
just a wild thought...

Subject: [korgpolyex] Arpeggiator MIDI out - yes, of course

Hi Atom,

I will definitely be ensuring that the arpeggiator can send MIDI out. User selectable of course.

Mike.

cool.. and since not everyone has a k5000, maybe you can have the option
of sending the arpegiated notes to MIDI out...?
