Tails (Grande)
When monophonic sequences run through an ADSR module, each new note cuts (e.g. the release tail of) the prior note, because only one note can be played at a time. This leads to note truncation, which sounds unnatural.
Tails preserves ADSR release tails by converting a monophonic sequence into a polyphonic signal based on gate pulses. Notes can then ring out properly.
In the example, turn the ‘Channel’ knob on Tails. If set to ‘1’, truncation is audible. If set to 2 or higher, notes can be heard to ring out. This is also visible in the depictions of the ADSR envelope. The number of active channels can be seen on the other visualizers.
Thank you to @john_rose for pointing out this great module! Also, take a look at Tails4 (Grande) and Assign (Bogaudio), which are poly-to-poly.
