Feedback Simulator Redux

Insert Mode Program. Series Routing. Program MIX 50%. PolySynth into PolySynth. Programmed for stereo use.

———————————————————————
Not all that different from the Feedback Simulator Stack here. I don’t revisit Programs as a rule, but the original had a missed opportunity in concept. That one concentrated on pitch shifting & unusual intervals. This revised one puts the focus on the offset voice entrances, where it belongs.
———————————————————————-

Not too synth-y, for a polyphonic synth. Works well clean or dirty, chords or single note lines; harmonics or arpeggios.

Acts on any sustained note. SIFT-ed through an octave up, building to 2 octaves up. The sync’ed Pitch Wheel Whammy action of EXP1 shifts the effect up to the 2nd octave and a 3rd higher octave. EXP1 also sweeps PolySynth 1 & 2 Resonance and LFO Rate.

EXP2 (optional) is mapped to HotKnob [P] (see below). It’s another option for tweaking the two offsets voice timings. Saved at Heel.

All three HotKnobs are pre-programmed for making fine adjustments to several of the effects. Customize the sound, using these variations:

* [P] HotKnob (+/-) adjusts Attack offsets simultaneously for both PolySynth instances. The default [P] value (35) has slightly faster entrances than the original, with a wide range of timings dialed to either side of it. Or use EXP2 for external foot control over the full range.

* [A] HotKnob (CCW) – adjusts Shape 1,2,3 for PolySynth1. [default = 100].
* [B] HotKnob (CCW) – adjusts Shape 1,2,3 for PolySynth 2. [default = 100].

Preset [A] & [B] HotKnobs provide for feedback timbre changes in either or both PolySynth instances.

Other options include momentary or latching FREEZE options [Release times set under Main Params] in either / both PolySynths. They are in a Series routing, so there are a lot of combinations here. HS1 changes the LFO Dest to Cutoff, and the LFO Shape to Ramp Down, in both PolySynths.

See the Program Notes for more information on the PERFORM switch mappings.
