Original Message 1/12 03-Aug-99 @ 03:36 PM - SNova Crackling
I've just got my SNova and notice a lot of crackling - it does die away when I throttle back on the level controls so I guess its an overloading or distortion - just wondering if anybody else has it.....I've got the latest beta software installed.
(I checked all the obvious stuff already)..
Cheers,

This kind of issue's only going to get worse; the PC and Windows have proven people are more than willing to sacrifice stability for flexibility. As OS's and hardware get more sophisticated and flexible, the variables just go beyond control.
The one thing I hope doesn't become a trend, though, is that it seems like -- and I'm sure it's purely for business survival reasons, and if so I'm all for it as if a company goes out of business, NO more support -- a lot of instrument makers get hooked with all the excitement of creating the Next Big Thing before they've finished the Last Big Thing. Kind of like going for dessert before you've finished yer peas. I wish, if it were financially possible -- and over the long haul, quality support gets you more money than rapid-fire-release of a variety of unfinished product -- that developers would spend a little more time supporting their last Genius Effort before rushing off to the next one.

You have to have some limits, and I haven't found any that came close to restricting my 'artist integrity' but I'd like to hear any examples if you want to post your patches to the mailing list.

I know this subject came up a week or two ago, but there definitely is a problem here. Is there any chance of a bug fix for this?

I just wish there was a final amplifier parameter to compensate for the low OSC levels like in the K2500. The DSP is so quiet that noise wouldn't be an issue.

Also many of the sounds, such as bass sounds, are intended to be played monophonically. If you have them in a performance with the part setting to polyphonic and play them polyphonically you will get distortion.

Anyway, the real point after all of that is 'is there any chance of more internal headroom'. I bearly use 3 osc. sounds as it is.

Look at the way the Presets are constructed to get an idea of what oscillator levels work for particular sounds.
You can already adjust the level going into the Effects section using the AMP envelope.
Personnaly I haven't had any problems, surely 24bit internal headroom is enough!

The overdrive knob does not have much effect at low levels of osc mix because it is not being overdriven. best results are when all oscs are at full level. (Remember above)
Clicks can occur when envs are set to attack times of less than 8 ( Especially ENV1 on basses ) this is cos the env opens so fast...a setting of 8 to the ear is the same as 0.
