@@CherryAudiovstSince I never tried a real PS3300: those octave divide oscillator concepts: some designs have a rather unique way of dealing with levels as soon as you play more octaves of the same note, due to unbuffered load changes in the circuitry. Did you measure how the actual hardware behaves in this regard? And if its nonlinear, did you model this?

@celebutante11 ай бұрын
The PS-3300 (real thing and our version) is a combination of poly and mono circuits (aka "paraphonic"), so there are a limited amount of parameters that potentially MPE controllable - basically the oscillator, filter, and voice panel envelopes (not the General Env Gen). All parameters in the right-hand master voice panel are monophonic, as is all mod via patch cables, so it would be a somewhat crude implementation.

@jeffevansmusic11 ай бұрын
Its a lovely synth for sure but in my opinion it is one of the least fat sounding floor shaking synths that they have made. If its that sort of deep low end you are after you wont find it with this synth. It obviously means if they have modelled it really well which I suspect they have done, the original was never that deep or fat to start with. For example their DC106 goes way deeper. My Prophet 12, JD800 or Moog Voyager destroys this for bottom end. But then again that is what hardware is generally good for.
@celebutante11 ай бұрын
Original version indeed does not have a lot of low end - we were as surprised as anyone to discover this when we modeled it. If you look at the filter section for each of the voice panels, there's an MS-20 filter mode which not only makes the filters more raunchy and aggressive, it also disables the built-in highpass filtering, resulting in a lot more low frequencies.
