Hey Everyone,

First time poster. :D

Any who,

I was wondering if, when in MultiMode, that you can assign the Mod Wheel to transition between parts.

Example:

OverturreCK is on PART 1 Midi 1
GlasseySV is on PART 2 Midi 1

When the mod wheel is down, Overture is playing. When gradually raised the sound will be GlasseySV.

Anyone???

Um, can some one answer this simple question?

I'm actually embarassed to say I've never used my Virus in multi-mode (albeit that it's an Indigo [B-series] with less overall poly), so unfortunately I can't advise.

Hope someone will chip in here.

Thanks Timo for a response and the honesty. lol.

Ok, so im playing around with assigning "Patch Volume" to the Mod Wheel

PART 1 "Patch Volume" -64 Works at full volume when the Mod wheel is all the way down

PART 2 "Patch Volume" +64 Should, in theory, play at full volume when the mod wheel is all the way up. However, PART 2 seems to not be responding like Part 1 is. Part 2 seems to be playing regardless of mod wheel position even though Ive clearly defined it not to play whilst the Mod Wheel is -64.

What am I missing and is there another way to achieve the results im looking for. :(

Question answered.

Part 2's Main volume needs to be set to Zero first before appling a +64 range to a Mod.

Thanks

Thanks for the update, and an interesting note to bear in mind.

I think there's a lot of fun to be had in knowing what you want, sound-wise, and trying to execute it in practice, or to find little hacks or workarounds to get what you want. You end up learning a great deal.

On Korg's MOSS (analogue modelling) system on their workstations for example, I wanted to emulate the characteristic FM-noise modulation technique (easily dialed-in on the Virus) used to create those modern buzzy/fizzy type dance tones, but I couldn't do it directly (using noise as an FM modulation source) like you can on the Virus. After much head-scratching I found a way, and it ended up opening up a whole new creative and sonic avenue to explore. http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=15583

But I digress...

Cheers :)
