What is "Source Voice Limit"?

[David Kissam]

In Synchron Player, what do "Source Voice Limit" and "Source V.L. Release" do?

Hi carburetor,

Should be explained in the SY Player Manual, but I just saw that we didn't update it yet...

Let me get back to you on this!

Hi carburetor,

We just updated our Synchron Player manual with more information!

Those 2 controls were introduced with our Synchron Power Drums, which benefit from the "bleeding" effect a lot!

Hi Paul,

Thanks for getting back to me.  I read the updated manual page.  It says that sources are only defined for certain instruments.  I think it would be a good idea to define a "source" by default as a single note (like C4, C#4, D4, etc.) for all instruments, or at least give the user the option to do so.  If the Synchron-ized Special Keyboards library had this control, I would buy it.

I'm interested in this feature because I want a way to control the per-note polyphony of instruments.  I already have the VI Special Keyboards library, and the lack of this control is a drawback for me.  For example, I would like to set the "source voice limit" for the Harmonium to 1, so that I can use the sustain pedal without multiple voices of the same note layering on top of each other.  (I know organs don't have sustain pedals, but it's a useful tool for a composer with limited keyboard skills.)

I would love if this feature was added to the VI player as well.  Is any of this within the realm of possibility?

Thanks,

David

Hi David, 

Thanks for your reply!

"Is any of this within the realm of possibility?"

Everything is possible, but this feature is quite unlikely to materialize, I'm afraid. 

Sorry to have no better news. 

Best, 
Paul
