Cannot get polyphony with synthesizers

zelimir · Post by **zelimir** » Mon Jul 21, 2003 5:15 am

I have configuration with Pulsar XTC and Luna.

All synthesizers from packages I & II sounds monophonic. How to get polyphony on "U KNOW 007" and others? I know Miniscope is monophonic, but "U KNOW" should be poly. There is no settings how many voices to use.

Everything other seems to work fine, DSP load shows 6 Pulsar's + 3 Luna's DSPs and XTC mode enabled in settings.

I have loaded synthesizers from package I & II into SFP 3.1c software, because when I open Logic 5.5 I get message
"XTC plug-ins are not available while another CreamWare application is running". All Creamware VST-plugins are loaded into Logic's VST-plugin folder, but still they are not visible as Audioinstrument.

Although this is not very important to me because I like more to work in SFP program, and use Logic only for sequencing, I would like to know how to import VST-plugins.

But important is to have polyphonic synthesizers.

Thanks

OK, first off i'm a Mac user so i'll only help with non-XTC matters. To get polyphony open up the Live Bar and you'll be able to set it there, see the chapter regarding Live Bar in the manual to see which parameter is polyphony. Very few synths are actually monophonic-only, and all the Synth Pack ones are polyphonic i think - yes, even miniscope - try them.

For XTC stuff check out the XTC forum here at planet z, however i think SFP mode is much more flexible and fun.

Close SFP before you can use XTC. RTFM

If I close SFP I don't have ASIO loaded in Logic.
