  • 3 articulation crossfade

    Hello,

    I wonder if there is a way to crossfade 3 or more articulations.

    Ex:  violin tasto sus; pont.trem; trill 1

    to do tasto sus.; pont.trem it's ease, but the third?

    any idea?

    thanks 

    Roberto


  •  I'll add an other question about crossfade...  [:D]

    Is it good to put a vibrato patch with a legato patch and use crossfade?  Is it convincing to simulate vibrato?

    Thank you!

  • Hi, 

    Cell Xfade can only be applied between 2 slots in a cell, that´s also trur for the new Vienna Instruments and also Vienna Instruments Pro. To get even more Xfades, I´d start to build this third step with audio files. 

    Vincent: Vibrato and non vibrato patches work quite well with ensembles. Simply give it a try [;)]

    Best,

  • Thank you Paul, very clear.

    good work to you

  • Thank you Paul for your help!

    I tried it with APP 1...  I found that the difference is very subtile,  even with the strong vibrato patch....  [:D]


  •  Paul - it is true that crossfade can only be applied to two slots in a single cell -

    but it is quite possible to assign more tracks to the same MIDI channel and then adjust articulations on each so that they in effect create a mega crossfade ensemble of articulations.   I am also thinking that by adjusting the shape of the response curve of the CC used for crossfading one could create a single controlled articulation that could fade between more than two. I have not tried this but with the adjustable envelope shapes might it not be possible to have a sound fade in then out between min/max CC and thus create more than two zones of effect? 

    This would be an experiment though.
