Re: Faster envelopes on Matrix 12/Xpander - Conversation with one of the designers
Yeah, I was kind of blown away myself that Doidic answered, since he is the president of Line 6! It was a "long shot", but I thought what the heck. I think he is very proud of this legendary beast :)

Hi All, I am thinking about trying this, but can anyone really tell the difference in one thousandth of a second. It seems like only a scope could tell the difference. And looking at the schematics

Re: Faster envelopes on Matrix 12/Xpander - Conversation with one of the designers
Yep, it?s true for both synths,- but that doesn?t make the Xpander or Matrix12 a bad synth. They have other qualitys. If the Xpander or M12 is the only synth you have, the slow envelopes are a

Hi, Wow, I am impressed that Michel Doidic even reponded to this after 25 years. He obviously pulled out the schematics and gave it some thought. Very kind of him. And thanks to analogholic for having

Re: Autotune failure!
Hello takisdamaschis, When you say output capacitors, are you talking about the small 2.2uF Cx49 at the edge of the voice board? There is one for each voice. There is also one of these at the output

I personally do not understand this general obsession with making One does not need a scope to experience the slow envelopes on the Xpander, it is plainly audible. The same goes for the OB8.

Re: Faster envelopes on Matrix 12/Xpander - Conversation with one of the designers
Hi ! I agree. If you speed up the CPU, all the software generated processes speed up too, not only the attack of envelopes. Eventually, if the envelopes become faster, isn?t it they will be shorter
