Genos Voices & Revo Drums / Re: Piano sound

« Last post by 2112 on Today at 02:19:50 AM »

What do you exactly mean by "little thin?"

What happens if you use your speakers to play the sound from a known good piano synthesizer like Pianoteq 6 Free Demo version?

QSC K12 are sound reinforcement speakers with Class D amplifier. They aren't meant to sound good, they meant to sound loud and be able to take lots of abuse. It certainly isn't a HiFi equipment.

Your opinion and everyone else's opinion and experience matters to me and make me see things from another prospective which i might haven't thought.

Hi Panos -- That spirit comes through in your posts. We all learn from you, too. Thanks! -- pj

Genos Registrations & Playlist / Re: Registration glitch

« Last post by Fred Smith on Yesterday at 11:47:30 PM »

Any error encountered is stored in Genos_log.log file. I don't know to tell you where is default path for this file, but it would be great to see some log from it.

That's the first time I've ever heard of a Genos log file. I certainly can't find one like it.

Where did you hear of such a log file?

Cheers,
Fred

Genos Registrations & Playlist / Can a Different Reg Be Assigned to Each of the Ten Reg Buttons?

« Last post by Bob88 on Yesterday at 11:20:12 PM »

   I   have a registration  I created on my Genos that presently includes four Beatles tunes.  On 1,2,3 and 4 I have styles for  four  Beatles songs, one for each of the 4 numbers.  The  folder is named Beatles which I opens on button  1.  I really want to create a reg for each individual song in the location they are now so that each number 1,2,3 and 4 are individual  registrations. Is this possible? If so I would like to know how.  Thank you. Bob

Maybe is my bad english...piffff
It is just that everyone of us see things in a different way and just saying his opinion.

Hi folks --

I get what you're saying, Roy. There should be an easier path and maybe creating a loop style, DJ style or whatever is too much effort or complication. Granted.

That said, I knocked out the demo loop in about an hour. Most of that time was spent making the MIDI file, i.e., finding MIDI phrases that fit together in some musical way. I made the MIDI file in SONAR, including the three markers needed for a minimal style, GM reset and XG reset. Then, I used Jorgen's CASM editor to add the NTR/NTT info. The actual style creation part of the job took 10 minutes once I had an acceptable MIDI loop with parts.

BTW, I'm not going to underestimate Tom. In one of his experiments (posts), he started out with a MIDI loop produced in Ableton Live. In his first post, he has even created voices for the S670 using YEM. Sounds like an adventurous dude. 

Whether this is the appropriate approach for someone or not, all I can do is create opportunities for other Forum members.

Hey, hey, have a good weekend, folks! Don't forget to play!

Here's a demo "loop style" for jazzers.

I started off with a 16 bar MIDI loop. The first eight bars are Dmin7 and the second 8 bars are Cmin7.

There are five style parts:

Channel  Instrument  C.Root  C.Type
-------  ----------  ------  ------
   10      Drum         C     maj7   ROOT FIXED  BYPASS
   11      Bass         D     min7   ROOT TRANS  BYPASS
   12      Guitar       D     min7   ROOT TRANS  BYPASS
   13      EPiano       D     min7   ROOT TRANS  BYPASS
   14      Pad          D     min7   ROOT TRANS  BYPASS

The chord type will be ignored because chord type conversion is bypassed. Only the chord root note (D) is significant.

The style contains only one section: MAIN A. The key that is played in the accompany zone (left hand) determines the new root note. Play D and the chord progression starts with Dmin7. Play E and the chord progression starts with Emin7, etc.

Please feel free to edit. I think this is the simplest possible style, technically. 

All the best -- pj

P.S. This isn't meant to be great music...
