Pro 3, firmware OS.. requests.. improvements.. incoming :-)

[KST]

Would like an option for high pass filter in delay and reverb parameters (maybe other effects, other than the obvious hpf by itself). I feel it would help clean up the low end since all we have as a param is low pass, unless i'm missing something and we can switch from lpf to hpf in those effect parameters

The feedback filter on the reverb is already low below noon, high above noon as far as I can tell.

Nice! I'll check this out today. Still would like one for the delays

Long time I don't check this forum. Btw in the remote case there will be another update for the Pro 3, I have a couple of simple requests about the lfos:

1) Introduce an adjustable fade-in time for the lfos. This has been the norm in most synths for the last few decades, it sounds bizarre to me having to waste an ADSR just for that.

2) A way to lock Slew Rate to the lfo rate. As it is, if you change lfo speed, you have to change slew as well. This is especially when you are using s&h, and want a smoothed version of that.
Better yet, add a "Sample and Glide" waveform, and bypass the issue.

Interesting, I used to think about slew value being more of a depth value rather then rate value. I have to do some exploration of the interaction between lfo speed and slew.

I just want to add one feature request: make the symbols loop when naming patches.
Ever since I got the 3rd Wave I've wondered why my Pro 3 doesn't do this simple thing.

Real time recording

I really need this too, I was unpleasantly surprised this is not possible!!!

Just asked Pym about real-time recording. A simple record+play to enter this mode would be great, and while a click track would be great most of us have Pro3 synced to a drum machine/DAW and would be fine entering notes without a click track.

This is by far the number one feature request to make better use of the sequencer to record melodies. Even the original TB-303 had a real-time tap input mode.

So I just got my Pro 3 yesterday.  I just checked to see if it has the latest firmware, and it has version 1.2.0.7.   The sequential website says the latest version is 1.2.0.4.  What gives? :woozy:

// Also, how do I do a normal reply on this forum?  I only see quick reply?

1.2.0.7 is the latest (beta) as per the sticky thread at the top of the Pro3 section of this forum.

Press the + button on the post you wish to reply to, if that’s what you meant.

I was thinking recently, that we should have the old Moog sequencer style "skip step" for the Pro3.
  Not just silence/mute, that's already there, but, jump/skip over a step. (Live! As you press the buttons.)
This is one of the secrets to the old TD / berlin school sequences.

Option to assign a Midi channel per oscillator so each oscillator can be sequenced separately when using an external sequencer.

[Spektre]

Did anyone hear anything about the future of synth?

[thesandbox]

Still think real time recording should not be to hard to implement adding notes and such while it is running....no?

Don't remember or didn't realize before that PRO3 doesn't save the internal keyboard offset as part of the patch?

Would be useful to have this as optional setting on the MISC > PITCH screen. By default disabled, turn the encoder to set -2 -1 0 +1 +2.

Or just a “store octave offset in preset” with “on” and “off” as options.

Just a reminder you awesome people, please please please, contact support@sequential.com with your feature requests and bug reports. By their own admission, they will be more likely to implement our feature requests by contacting them on the above email.

• feature request - envelopes for FX on/off buttons - FX on/off can be used as a solid performance feature, however the toggling is often rather harsh. Those that know Novation Summit, the FX buttons on PRO 3 could be used similarly to Animate buttons on Summit. And similarly to how envelopes were added to the Animate buttons, I propose for optional envelopes to be added to the FX on/off buttons.
• improvement - sequence alignment during compare - currently, when working for example with sequence C, using compare function doesn't compare to sequence C, it instead compares to sequence A. I propose compare should activate the same sequence on the original patch, especially in the standard non-extended mode
• bug fix / improvement - tempo synced free running LFOs for arpeggiator - currently, there is this seeming inconsistency / bug, where tempo synced LFOs retrigger with each arpeggiated note even though wave reset is disabled. Interestingly, when tempo sync is disabled and frequency is turned in manually, it doesn't retrigger. I consider this a bug a propose the expected behavior of tempo synced LFOs not retrigger unless the wave reset is enabled

I forgot one more thing from last session:
- LED BRIGTNESS setting / optimization. The red LEDs are acceptable, however the white one and some of the colored ones are just too bright to use in the semi-darkened environment. It´s so blinding that it distorts my ability to see the surroundings of the white LED.

Next one:
- legato restart mode for the sequencer - so that it restarts when transposing is played with gaps and plays continuously while transposing is done in legato style
