Take 5 Firmware Update - Feature Requests

[JozefSvorc]

TAKE5 is excellent synth and enjoing every time playing on. There are only two things I really miss about it that would make it the perfect machine (at least for me) 
1.  Ping-Pong Delay (Stereo Cross Delay) The vast majority of modern synthesizers offer this type of delay effect and it is very desirable in electronic music.
2. Another (different) type of Chorus effect. To be specific, I'm referring to the creaminess and lushness of the Juno6 chorus. This type of chorus would enhance the (already beautiful) sound of the TAKE5.
Please consider adding these effects in some of the next updates. Many thanks

The BBD delay ping pongs but it’s only audible if you pan what’s going into it.  DC->Panning in the mod matrix does it.  Or Voice Sprd->Panning.

A proper ping pong delay that ping pongs even with a mono input would be a nice enhancement though.

Hen gang!
In case you're still taking suggestions ...

- Looks like I'm not alone wishing the Main Display showed parameter values (current AND saved).  It would drastically improve workflow, for both live and sound design sessions.  Novation's Summit does this, and it's a game-changer.

- Would love to see a more functional sequencer.  So tempting with 16 buttons right at your fingertips.  Adding ratchets/swing/probability/etc would really round this machine out as a portable workhorse.

- A shortcut for Key Tracking would be wonderful.  It's used so often, yet buried in the menu.  Can the Bank key work double duty as a SHIFT key?  Then the Filter Drive pot would make a great knob for Key Tracking.

Absolutely love this synth.  Thanks for all work and love ya'll pour into these things!

I´ve had serious problems with last Beta on Take-5 and TEO-5, when using Env 1 as mod source. One voice doesnt recieve the modulation. First TEO-5 i got, was returned, because i thought it was a defect unit. The second worked alright (i didnt check the Firmware version) but when i checked, it was not the Beta. So i installed the Beta and the problem came back. Every 5´th voice did not respond to Env 1 Modulation. This happened on both maschines. Im now back with the Firmware before the Beta. This is what DSI support wrote:

"The Take 5/TEO-5 Env1 mod source issue is on our bug list, and will hopefully be tackled in the next OS overhaul. I can not say for sure when this will take place, as the software team is currebntly busy working on new projects. They will circle back around to existing instruments when their slate is cleared."

Anyone experience this serious bug, please ask DSI or adressing this very serious problem
