What do you mean by more "official"? What would you want changed?

We should make the emails public. I only sent because he seemed trustworthy and he made it seem like he needed them right then. I'm not being so trustworthy anymore. #misanthropy

Come on though, you have to give this more credit than just dancing.

Bangarang was...I dunno. That annoying rapper girl killed it. There wasn't much on there that was good in my opinion. The Scary Monsters EP though is like, one of my all time favorite albums

I listen to dance music but have never been to a party or any dancing event. I listen to EDM because I like the sounds they make, and in some cases, it can be really emotional. Zedd's Spectrum is one of the most emotionally-moving electronic songs I've ever heard, mainly because it came out during a really stressful time for me, but also because it's so musically powerful at points.

This one will totally get haters on my case, but Skrillex's Scary Monsters EP is also pretty emotional to me as well. That one isn't like a "oh look how beautiful and amazing this makes me feel", but more of a "FUCK YEAH SUMMER!" thing because of the times I've spent in the car with my friends, speeding down the road to IHOP blasting it. I have such fond memories listening to this stuff with friends and really just enjoying it for the sounds it makes.

Dunno if that means anything to you guys

Yeah, honestly, I could have made it a lot more in depth (using all the waves available to make a nice, slow modulating one).

Roboctopus does way more PWM than I do, he's the REAL man for the job wink

Thanks Chips! Just wait until my next two EPs are released, I'm talking like TREYFREY status programming on these things wink

.exe, F commands manually change the wave that is being used by the instrument. You could change the playback settings in the instrument itself by using pingpong or loop or whatever, but I figured since I'm already using a table for the simulated envelope, I might as well just use F commands to make it modulate the pulse width smoother with the volume decay.

No problemo! And thanks for all the compliments guys, making me feel good about myself on an off day wink Oh you.

Anyway, on to the technical side.

WAV:
So for the WAV channel, I did this by "emulating" PWM. Technically it is PWM, but not as smooth as the 16 bit systems do it or whatever. You go into the wave screen, and manually enter a pulse wave that has a midpoint in the middle of the screen, and draw 2 more waves where the midpoint moves more toward the left. Set the instrument to manual in the instrument screen.

Then in a table put this:

F01  --
--      --
--      E02
F02   --
--       --
--       E01
F03    --
--       E00
H09   H09

Basically what that does is the F commands are telling the instrument to switch waveforms to the number indicated, in this case, shortening the PWM. What the E commands are doing are automating and emulating a lower envelope, so that it has a little bit of a decay in the note.


Pulse:
This one is a little bit simpler and less work, but it might be in the way of some other pulse instruments you have going on (that's why I also made a wav channel one). Make a pulse instrument with an envelope like 77 (that should be sufficient, just make sure the not will release) and make a table for it. The table should look like this:

W03
--
W02
--
W01
--
H06

W commands don't have numbers, but I don't know how to notate it. Use the third wave, then the second one, and then the first one (if you don't understand, I'll try to make a screenshot).


Hope this helps big_smile

I'm just pissed because this is my only source of income right now because all the local HR offices can't find it in their hearts to call me back regarding an application.

This guy stole my time and effort, I wish there was a way that we could avoid these issues.

Closest I got with like, 5 minutes time. Just "emulated" PWM on wav and pulse channels. If you want the patches, I'll type them up in a little bit.
