Many Rack users have asked about the specifics of polyphony in Rack v1. Here’s my description of the exact behavior of poly cables and poly-supporting modules. Plugin developers should read this thread (or the Voltage Standards section of the manual after Rack v1 is released) before adding polyphony…

Ref the SOS article I linked to, it’s worth reading the whole thing (and relevent to the points we’re discussing) but the TLDR version is the grey boxed section at the foot of the page titled Random Voice Assignment. [image] Vortico: Yes, a developer could make a module which applies a CV-contr…

[image] Vortico: My reasoning is that is you have a variance/std dev/range/whatever of a small amount of frequency, say +/-1 Hz, of an oscillator, some percentage of people will feel a certain difference when you play some chords. My intuition is that the same percentage of people would feel the…

about “should the setting of poly modules have slight variations per voices” If I understand correctly, a poly vcf module will also have a poly cut off. mod cv in. If it is so, then it’s up to the user to mux and demux the signal that control the cut off to introduce some small variations

Yes, if you want to have slight variations of VCF cutoff per-voice, you could demux the cutoff signal, patch the N cables into a monophonic module that applies a unique offset to each signal, patch the result into the muxer, and then patch the single poly cable into the FREQ CV input of the VCF. Bu…

Hi all, i try to give my contribution about the “drift” matter. Excuse me if it won’t fit the discussion here. A good idea would be to have a generic “drift” module. A thing with a poly input, a poly output and 16 knobs with CV input for every knob where is possible to decide the range of drift f…

Yes, it definitely does. Something like that we have in Diva(there are “tune” option for every voice and general “drift”, but in modular system I prefer acces to a drift of every voice, plus to have an ablity to use some kind of “smart randomization” of drift(and maybe tune’s), which gives that “ana…

[image] alfonso.santimone: A good idea would be to have a generic “drift” module Go for it. The only thing I should mention is that it would be more straightforward to have just one “drift” knob. Polyphonic channels (when used for their recommended purpose, polyphonic voices) should be treate…

[image] alfonso.santimone: A good idea would be to have a generic “drift” module. aP Modules has a detuner that adds configurable noise to an input; something like that might work if applied to filters instead of V/oct?

I guess it should be in poliphonic form. When i use similar strategies with different mono voices my Rack become so much cluttered and CPU stressing …

using Reaktor i did a similar thing that gives random drift (in a user defined range) to the polyphonic signal. Instead of an always running noise would be better to have a random value (in user defined range) triggered just when a gate/trigger arrives. This kind of thing can simulate analog drift i…
