Title: No sound in Live mode
Post by: robleighton22 on December 04, 2015, 11:00:13 AM

Hi there,

Presets play fine - i have set the oscillator volumes on full, zero attacks, decay and sustain up. filters are open (except hpf). am i missing something? zero sound. have OS 1.1 installed. help would be appreciated.

Thanks - preset/write works. That should really be in the manual. Ok another issue that seems to be in live mode - I get a pretty horrid click almost no matter how much I adapt the envelopes - except if I have a slow attack or high release. It's almost as if the click is on the release....after touch and all modulation are off. Anyone else experiencing this?

Cheers

Just to add this happens to me in presets as well. Usually if i have attach at zero and then being the decay down and up again. It is giving the same click that u get with all amp envelope values at zero. Really hoping that is just a characteristic rather than a fault. Other than this - the p6 is literally the perfect synth!

I don't know if your issue is related to the LFO routed to the envelope, but see this thread from the other forum:

If the click is related to the attack phase, see this thread:

thanks - this is definitely a click related to the attach as it occurs with zero lfo routing. however, your 2nd thread topic is to do with a prophet 08 not prophet 06. im assuming this is just my prophet then.

My Guess is that there is nothing wrong with your keyboard, any synth with fast envelopes and free running oscillators will cause a click type sound, if you increase the env attack does it go away?

Right.  But this is a problem that many analog synthesizers have had, both old and new.  The Prophet '08 post offers a few solutions, if nothing else works.
