Dynamic or Multimic Envelopes
-
2 Questions:
-
Is it possible to do dynamic AHDSR per MIDI event without affecting currently playing voices within the same sampler?
-
Is it possible to have discrete AHDSR for each mic in a multimic setup that isn't using separate samplers?
Generally, what is the state of truly dynamic scripted envelopes? I keep running into this issue and can't find a solution besides adding more samplers. That works, but numbers balloon pretty quickly when you have an instrument with (for instance) 10 mics and 16 articulations.
To be fair, this.isn't that much fun in Kontakt either, but 160 groups in Kontakt is no big deal. 160 Samplers seems like a lot. Maybe I'm wrong?

What do you mean by "dynamic"? You can switch the envelope to polyphonic mode to handle different voices.

Not that I'm aware of although it might be possible through scriptnode.

The built in multi mic handling is really great (and a huge improvement over KT), just hoping for some more env. control so that the mics work naturally.
Lets say you have an instrument recorded with multiple RR, dynamics, and variations (short lengths for instance). It's really critical to have good control over the envelopes discretely to make them sound natural and user controllable. In my experience you generally need both initial settings and realtime adjustment based on intelligent parsing of the incoming MIDI.
I'm just looking for a way to accomplish that doesn't involve hundreds of Samplers. Maybe hundreds are ok, but from reading forum posts I'm not seeing people doing that a lot.. and managing in the HISE UI feels like a bit of a challenge as well.
Will keep on poking around...

I just let the user control the envelope settings per articulation. But doing it automagically from your script is essentially the same thing, so what's the problem, why can't you just change the envelope parameters the way you want?
-
@d-healey So putting the multi mic thing aside for a second... another way to ask this:
If I set the AHDSR attributes from script for each new note event, are those guaranteed as the env. values for that event even if the env. is changed via script for a subsequent event (bearing in mind there are very tight timings between events... milliseconds)?
-
@dxmachina I believe so - but you have to set them from a realtime script, not your UI script.

@d-healey Aha. Ok. that would indeed be an enormous help.Thank you, I will do some testing here.
