V-Synth Tip. Blending filters (Like the Radias).

[Hollowcell]

As I have a bit of gear lust for the Radias, I thought I'd try to recreate the way it can blend between filters as you sweep cutoff and rez for both.

Although the V-Synth can do it (as I'll explain in a sec), it's not as easy to do as the Radias, plus you lose some functionality. On the other hand though, you can do more than the Radias in other ways.

Here's how:
1: Use the same waveform/sample for each OSC.
2: Set the V-Synth so each OSC and each Cosm will in paralel (Structure setting 3).
3: Set up two different filters on each of the Cosm blocks.
4: In the matrix set the XY-up to control OSC 1 level, and XY-left-right to control OSC 2 level. You have to use the XY setting that goes from the bottom left corner up, and the bottom left corner accross. Using the setting that starts from the centre won't work.
5: In the matrix use another destination for cutoff control.

And that's it. You may have to play around with param-amounts so as the two OSCs blend away from eachother easily and also without volume spikes, but this gives you the exact same effect as the Radias for blending between two filters.

The downfall: You can only use one waveform/sample as otherwise you will be blending between two different waveforms as well as two different filters. This can be saved by just resampling an already built patch though I guess.

The upsides: As the V-synth can run 2 sets of duel filters you can effective blend between 4 filters.
But the best things is, you can setup other Cosm stuff on each - imagine blending between two different amp sims, or different speaker sims.

Anyway, I got some nice results just playing around, so I thought it may interest the other owners here.
