Hi! i got the sid module working, my PSU circuit is stable, i started playing some sid notes after i got it all trouble shot, and I LOVE THIS THING!!! it’s INCREDIBLE!! there is NO BACKGROUND HISS!! it’s so much better than using a c64, just blows my mind..
however, i can only get sounds out of one channel.. how do i play all 3 channels?
remember, i have not yet build control surface A yet..
I will do that over the next couple of days
The default patch is (I recall) just osc 1 on pulse waveform, osc 2 and 3 are off.
A patch can either be monophonic (all oscs play on note event) or 3-note polyphonic (each osc is used independently to play up to 3 notes simultaneously). Unless you load up a bankstick with patches and switch to a patch like Poly Saw, I don’t know how you can set up a polyphonic patch without a CS or JSynthLib. Hope that helps.
I used the VST, but found that when i did, it SEVERELY detuned all the oscillators.. not mild detuning for effect, total and utter detuning.
Also, ther eseemed to be no way i could find to chose which oscillator a note played on.. so if i made osc3 a good bass patch, and osc 2 a good lead, i could not draw a bass line and then a lead line and expect the right osc to play it.. most annoying..
This will be possible with the multi engine of MBSID V2

AAAAAAAAAHh, i see.. so for now, my sid will be a wicked mono instrument i think, with three wicked osc in unison
