Mono mode problems
Mono mode problems
Forgive me if this sounds ignorant. I ran into a problem using the monophonic mode of the pitch controller. If I a hold a key (let's say, a bass note on the lower register) and start playing another note, most of the VSTs and VAs I am used to would revert back to the bass note once I release the higher note. With KarmaFX, the higher note keeps playing even though I am now only holding the bass note. This is a last-note-priority mode I haven't encountered before. Is there a way of getting around this? I would like to obtain an effect similar to what Keith Emerson does with portmento and a bass note drone.

Hmmm. I don't think that the old note should retrigger. But it may be an option. When I go home, I will check my synths and maybe the documentation of some older synths. It should use portamento to go back to the old note though.
While I am asking for features, how hard would it be to add an option for note priority in mono mode? Like, low note, high note, last note priority. Currently, it is last note priority. These two articles are very useful:

I investigated.
Minimoog:
1. legato: does not retrigger env. for old note
2. non legato: does not retrigger env. for old note
Ensoniq ESQ1:
1. does not retrigger env for old note
Alesis ION:
1. legato: does not retrigger
2. non legato: retriggers
I would probably either add an option or go for not triggering.
