Verbos Polyphonic envelope

Hi,

I really struggled with this one.

Maybe it will give some ideas for module developpers :wink:

This is my take of the polyphonic envelope @verboselectronics with some twists.
Everything present on the original panel is reproduced on the metamodule. this patch is not only about reproducing the functionalities but also the interface.
The twists mentionned before are :
-controls over the shape of the curve (global for the 4 envelopes)
-Inverted output (All CV’s) with offset controll
-CV for level
-CV amount control for everything
-Internal LFO (when nothing patched in the corresponding CV Input) over all Skews and tilt control.
-Independent trigers (loop mode) for each envelope. (Gates inputs don’t make the envelopes looping. In this case the response is a sustain).

BTW a smaller version using polyphonic capabilities is already set and will be available as soon as these functionalities will be implement in MM

Here’s two versions, including one with an internal LFO for the skew parameters and one without. This patch required almost the maximum amount of modules that MM supports.

Runs at 24KHz

There’s already some good demos about this module (the original :wink: ) on youtube

Hope you’ll enjoy

Here’s a peace of performance using this patch.

MM modulates patameters of the ensemble oscillator.

Cheers.

Hi Denis,

Fantastic!

Super inspiring—the opening, with its cosmic-voyage vibe, followed by the progression into “electronic free jazz,” is superb.

Thanks for sharing the Meta patch :folded_hands:

Here in English :wink:

Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated.

I’m waiting for polyphonic utilities in the count modula plugin to post the Polyphonic version of this patch, which will look a little lighter and will be a bit more CPU friendly, I guess .

Cheers

Very nice performance!

Hope the new plugins work for the patch. I didn’t try it yet but the other patch you posted in the plugin thread, I was able to run at 32kHz with the updated poly plugins.

Hi @danngreen

It works… Almost. I just found a polyphony issue with one of the signal chain (the one which ends with bogaudio switch) of the patch below. At some stage (venom merge, hetric comparator, bogaudio switch), the polyphony is lost.

In this patch the switch flips the “skew” signal (“tilt” for level) between envelope 2 and 3. In MM it works only for the attack which skew signal is carried by the first channel.

You Can see what I mean opening the bogaudio switch in module view in this patch and play with the Knobs D, E, F and y in knobset 1. You’ll see the leds blink when turning knob D and not with the others.

Maybe would it be a good thing to set a routine testing all the ins and outs of the modules that are supposed to support polyphony…

Thanks in advance. Tell me if you prefer that I post this in the Issues thread.

Cheers.

EDIT:
I think that the problem comes from the Hetrick Comparator. Seems not to be polyphonic in MM.
So I replaced by Venom WINCOM and it works.

Ah, you’re right, HetrickCV Comparator was made polyphonic in the VCV version ~1 year ago, but that never was merged into the MetaModule branch.
