proposed solutions based on Jonathan's comments on Madonna

REVERB and RM and AMPLIFICATION all in the Q-list Wolfgang Heiniger in Berlin

page 1 TX816…do it with samples, which I could record from a TX in tempo? Or will you reconstruct the TX - particularly the different ranges of the pitch-bend wheel for each module (so that on a MW bend a cluster emerges, thicker and thicker the more the pitch is bent.) TX816 will be reconstructed - pitch-bend ranges achieved using different mappings for the different instances of the software instrument

p6 OK to leave as it is

p6 OK to leave as it is mapping C3 on the sampler keyboard to notated sample

p18 DX1 HARVEY CARTRIDGE sound - has Jan posted the soft copy? The batteries on these cartridges are now 20 years old! yes he has, all the sounds read well.

p24 Synth1 bars 108-110 transfer to sample(?). Cluster in bar111 played on DX transfer to sample not necessary. Controller mapping for portamento: quick control change on the downbeat of bar 109 realised via button press or peda switch if necessary. Change to DX patch in bar 111 not a problem.

p50 TX816 bar2: how can we duplicate the differing pitch bend ranges as for page 1? Same question. we create more instances of the same software instrument playing the same patch but with different pitch-bend mappings.

p52 Instead of ‘make MIDI connection…etc.’ i should write in the Synth part in Synth2’s part for him to PLAY (?) Can the softDX1 have equivalent finger-pressure pitch-bend? if we have correctly understood the desired result is to have the notated part of Synth1 to trigger the sample loaded on Synth2. This can be easily achieved by having the Synth2 player to play the part as Jonathan suggests. We favour this solution, that has the advantage of keeping the two systems separated. A MIDI thru from Synth1 to Synth2 is of course also possible in software if required. Regarding aftertouch pitch-bend (finger-pressure) no problem at all as long as the keyboard has aftertouch capability, as they almost all have today.

p54/56 bar 225 How do we fade DX and TX in and out? to have separate physical volume control for the different instances of the software instrument (the ones emulating the TX816 and the one emulating DX1) the best solution is to assign a fader on the keyboard to act as volume controller - as a drawbar on an organ. Of course this can also be achieved with a second volume pedal if the player prefers. If we go with the first solution Andr”
