I personnaly prefer nveloppe , the big strength ( both) is the freq selection for transient and sustain, brillant . I also tend to prefer horizontal layout on gui's lol ....

Thks Fleer , do they come with midi stuff ? actually scratching my head about getting Spectrasonics expansion unclean machine or some ez keys and treat them .... limitation can be a plus a lot of time ... hence the clear opposit on this choice , zillions of patches versus small print and tweaks limitations ... Unclean machine strength is the new FX (Lofi with 100 noise integrated ect ...) this will open keysacpes beauties to that era .... really , really tempting !!

Hello amigos !!! question for you sounds lover , anyone owning ez keyz cinematic pads and dream machine ? Any comments on those ? enougth tweakbility or just presets ? Value for money ?

loading theml in something like komplete kontrol or a 3rd party vst could make a diff , but really i ain't tripping , upgraded for chromaphone , rediscovering String studio 3

Yep Erik , i do find that one layer (2 resonator) is even better to have solid sound before it becomes to vulgarous ... os old libraries are great to play with and 2 resonator is enougth , sometime i want fx on one not theother , the second layer comes handy there , but it really increase the cpu even if only 2 resonnator are use at all , witch leads me to think that the framework design isn't optimised ... As for the cpu turbo boost it's not the thortelling , but heat i'm on a passiv cooling configuration , system is exellent like this , as soon as turbo is enabled , i start going in areas i don't want (but even like that i'm under 75 c while no turbo i'm under 60 on heavy projects , system is exellent most of the time i'm near 50 ) Actually producing here's my temps

Guyz , nobody on COH here ? ( company of heroes )

Just to be clear , people that are thinking of upgrading , do it , at least to have Chromaphone 2 remastered content and use it as chromaphone 2 but with a superb gui , if you need to go deeper you can but used in a ONE Layer configuartion cpu hit is OK !! I'm actually creating patches now to conduct a real test and in one layers config it's smooth ...i'm gonna test one resonator only in each layer now and report ...

Yep , i can also don t use it , if aas was the only dev , ok , but man , even zenology and roland stuff are less cpu intensive ...

yep i usually freeze , problem being when AAS are inserted time wise , if the project is already loaded , even just playing the part will force me to render other VSTi's , i don't want to kill creativituy because of lack of optimisation skills !!! usually bounce in audio once i validate the whole production

3.2 i disabled turbo boost 8 threads

Exact i don't know why i skipped trying , stupid as i am , but the gui is so much better to work with so i take it as a consolation , i'm gonna use it as a way to sound design in a better place than the V2 as simple as that ,going one layer instead ....

https://www.applied-acoustics.com/chromaphone-3/faq/ What’s up with Chromaphone’s CPU usage? Chromaphone 3 can indeed be quite CPU intensive. It’s important to understand that a Chromaphone 3 instance can only run on one core of a multi-core system, so that particular core can be overloaded. There are internal and external variables that can affect the performance of Chromaphone 3. The internal variables are: unison, number of voices, arpeggiator, resonator quality, decay, and pitch modulation. These vary per preset/program. The external variables include: sample rate, buffer size, CPU model. The external variables can be tweaked but don’t vary per preset/program. Strategies for better performance Unison—It literary doubles or quadruples the CPU usage per note, so it’s a good idea to toggle it to see if its contribution is worth the load for your particular situation. For some presets, another possible workaround would be to use a chorus effect instead of the unison. Number of voices, decay—With the number of voices set to 16, you can trig up to 16 notes before one is cut out; if that particular preset has a long decay, you end up with a lot of calculation going on in real-time—very high CPU usage. Mode Density—The Mode Density control is located just below the resonator selector and it allows one to adjust the number of modes taken into account in the synthesis and therefore the richness and complexity of the sound. This control has four positions, Low, Medium, High, Full, corresponding to 4, 16, 30 and 70 modes respectively. CPU usage is directly proportional to the number of modes that needs to be calculated. Pitch modulation via LFO and enveloppe—All modulations add extra calculations, and so increase the CPU load. If the modulation’s contribution doesn’t add anything to what you want to achieve you should remove it. Sample rate—Running at 88.2 kHz vs. 44.1 kHz effectively doubles the CPU usage. Buffer size—Here lies the compromise of CPU load vs playability. You would set it as high as it’s bearable. In our experience, at a sample rate of 44.1 kHz there is no point in increasing the buffer size above 512 samples—there is no increase in performance above that point. But sure it sounds superb ....

OK just for the shaker guy lol "i need four of them " .... nah gimme 6 in fact ....

don't ask me why i post this , the title "merry christmas" made me start singing this so i spam the thread as usual lol

Oh by thebway fx have little imapct , i even reduced voiçes to 4 ... gonna check resonnator , but if those changes could be locked it would be great but having to tweak each patche loaded is a pain . I started to load patches and everytime i had 2parts , disabled one or the other that is not usefull ... but to be hinest , it entered straight iinto dustware .... i dont even bother getting my xmas gift

To be honest , i was so pistoff that i wanted to ask for a refund , yeah for 30 euros , because i just installed stuff that i know i ain t gonna use , simple as that ... sessions during production are loaded with other stuff ... But i think i ll give up , i googled and people said that the aas response was :this is the way it is ... even on their faq page about chromaphone , damn i should have tested it before , i m prettybsure i did n t upgraded before because of that. I don t trust myself enougth lol .... Shame , really , the worst thing for a dev is making plugins people gonna skip more and more and being ok with that is a suicide ...

I wish everybody health and pease of mind !! Stay cool and don't forget to share and love if you care about Jesus teaching ...

Hey guyz , late night here and don't ask me why lol decided to puagrde from chromaphone 2 to 3 (as well;string studio 3 and that modular thing , all for 34 $ witch was hard to resist) Cromaphone always been a superb synth but the V3 is barely usable due to the cpu hit , and don't even think about using pitch wheel ... Am i missing something ? any infos from AAS on that subject ? what's going ? 2 instance of C2 are less cpu intensive than C3 !!

Is the code other ? why so much rush ....

Got it .....might be that Noiseash release stressing them lol

Lol Larry , it's the same sale Neve price aren't changed or i'm missing something (i only miss the 31102, witch is still 124 $)

man project 5 and kinetic were ancestors to live and maschine ..so sad cakewalk were not that great marketing wise

So you're full Bitwig ?

@Peter - IK Multimedia On this one i vote leslie , those are rare gem's ....

oh man the ending song is dope ....
