Hello,

just a simple question...

how do you put a "tuner" in the sigal flow, like the ones you have on a synth..just so i can tune some KYMA sounds to others on my PULSAR system.

Thanks!

Hello Jason,

For most generators (oscillators, samples, etc), you can add a tuner to the pitch in the Frequency field. For example

!Pitch + !Tune nn

in the Frequency field would let you tune up or down by one half step.

(If you have multiple generators in a Mixer and want to detune them independently for phase and beating effects, use !Tune1, !Tune2, etc so you have a separate control on each).

Thanks!

Im in love with your Monotizers.
How do i apply tuning to the sound called "Quantize pitch to major scale" I'm trying to tune my voice to synths on a track i am working on.

I used (((([freq tracker] L * SignalProcessor halfSampleRate) hz nn - !KeyPitch + !tune nn) removeUnits rounded mod: 12) of: #(0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0)) nn + ([freq tracker] L * SignalProcessor halfSampleRate) hz nn rounded

but does not seem to tune..

where did i go wrong?

Jason

The expression you were using always outputs an integer number of half steps. If you move the tune part to the end of the expression, you can tune the actual pitch away from the equal tempered value.

(((([freq tracker] L * SignalProcessor halfSampleRate) hz nn - !KeyPitch) removeUnits rounded mod: 12) of: #(0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0)) nn + ([freq tracker] L * SignalProcessor halfSampleRate) hz nn rounded + !tune nn
