Just posted the first chord portemento track ever...Keep in mind the style is still developing, so don't listen for it to sound "good" so much as sounding "different"...the good part will come later

Anyway let me know your observations

Also I just posted a slammin new house groove, please give your feedback, thanks@!

did you vote for your own track? is that ranxerox? does anyone have a sackful of TL082 op-amps for free?

more chord and less portamento and i'll give you an opinion :p did you get that eno clip i sent you?conga house is cool, but i could have done with a bit longer to let it rage before you broke to the filtered bit.

it's time to build that pro-one high pass filter mod

thanks nomad i wouldn't know what to do with them if they _insert improbable event of choice here_

i've been casually considering having a go at the EMS since i bought a hell of a lot of parts for *something* and then got tired of d.i.y. after burning myself out making little gifts for a family trip. that is to say i still haven't got beyond bending and following schemos. think long term on progress here..

do they substitute?

Yeah chord portemento is a bit weak on the chords, kinda cartoony at this point. But you get the basic idea: no traditional "hammered" tones, just "gliding" tones.

I wish I had more portemento parameter control besides just "glide time." For instance, it would be nice to play with the start/finish glide time ratio...What I mean is instead of the glide being limited to one constant speed, I wish I could alter the speed at various point in the glide. A note could start out gliding up fast, then slow down about halfway through its path, then speed back up again as it approaches its destination note.

what happens if you play with the 'porta time' parameter? like send CCs or something (guess most synths don't let you map an envelope to it eh?

i miss my obxa.... it had true polyphonic portamento... push notes all over the keyboard... set to unison mode.... turn on portamento.... listen to the sounds sweep to C from all ends of the spectrum...beautiful.

and yeah, an ne5532 with substitute for most opamps, though it might not sound identical (4558, 1458, 741, 5534, 072, 082, the 5532 should work in place of most of these...)

sensoniq...you could do that with an envelope to pitch, no? or maybe an LFO along with your portamento?

also..whatever synth youre using...does it send CCs? why not try tweakin the porta time knob while recording and see what heppens?

unless you're talking like a bucketfull and you want to send me a few cups of 'em, i'll pass. i do appreciate your kindness, but i have a radio shack conveniently situated on the way home.. they do 555s and 741s.. plus the likelihood of me actually doing anything is not something to bank on.
