More definitions uploaded, only a few left. Still need a bunch of examples however.

Hey this is a good list - what I may do is put this info on the website and if we get an examples put them there (or create them!) so you can hear what they do, also create a printable list to have by your emu for when you're twisting up sounds. I'll try and work out the few which haven't been got later today...

KRand(1-2) i believe this is key random. basically i have used it to create random filter effects. if i remember proper.

if you set this cord: krand1>filterfreq>+100 or whatever, every time you hit the key you will actually hear a different degree of filtering. sometimes the filter will be completely open, sometimes completely closed, sometimes in the middle. you may have to play with the percentage because i can't remember if it works positive or negative. but either way, you get the idea. i suppose you use this to get random pitches for your instrument or drums. random lfo rates, and depths. random everything....

best thread of the year

Sorry guys, haven't been able to finish this, too busy. We are still missing a bunch of examples and a few definitions, but once I can spend some time on the EMU I'll try to figure them out. Unless anyone else can.

Can you post a list of what ones are missing, and I will try to experimet with them and post the results.

man, i just was messing around in the cords section today wondering what all that shit was, then i read this thread and almost shit myself.

deff. the thread of the year

nice one recipher, and everyone else that helped with the list

Thanks, glad this helped

lost_sound, I went ahead and made a quick list of stuff that we still need

list is first post on page 1

Alright, I did a couple more, but I am still unsure of the definitions that I have added, so I've kept them in the above post. Still haven't been able to use my Emu yet.

recipher,

Thanks I will get to it as soon as I get back to the studio. I am at my parents for holliday. Be back in chicago on tuseday.

Hey this is looking really cool, Big up Recipher and all contributors.
Anybody know how percentage in destination correlates to pitch, I think this would be worth putting on the list above as well. I've looked through the manual. Guess I'll work it out actually thinking about it

So this is a really late post, but I'm responding to the post right above me. A 3% value on the Pitch Wheel is going to shift the sample up 1 semitone. So 6% is one whole tone. So there's 8 whole tones in a C major. 6x8 is 48. 48% would give you an octave. 96% is two octaves.

I was looking at the list of sources and destinations and saw the Ft(1-2)FF.
Has anybody figured this one out.

from my understanding of the pitch cord to pitch change corresponds like this: If six percent equals a whole step, and i agree with wrecker13 on that, then 48 is not an octave. from C2 to C3 is twelve half steps, 3 times 12 equals 36. this is a chromatic scale where all the degrees are represented. now, if you go into major mode, or diatonic scale, you are dealing with 8 degrees with a redundancy of the tonic or key tone. this, however is not 8 whole tones. The major mode follows this set up, whole step, whole step, half step, whole step, whole step, whole step, half step, which would translate cord precentage as follows:

C to D, whole step, 6%
D to E, whole step 6%
E to F, half step 3%
F to G, whole step 6%
G to A, whole step 6%
A to B, whole step 6%
B to C, half step 3%

adding these up you will find the total will be 36 percent.

and of course there would be different precentage for each mode there after, given that there are four different minor modes, natural, harmonic, melodic ascending, and melodic descending... considering we just look at the basics of music theory. i bet we could have a thread alone to just the pitch cord, listing how the percentage is affected depending on what mode, or tuning method we us, this could go for pages. imagine just intonation, 48 notes per octave... it would be crazy.

Whoopsie.....you're right. My bad. I had a brain fart and thought no sharps and no flats meant all whole tones. All whole tones would be a whole tone scale, right? Thanks for the correction. I'm gonna go learn the circle of fifths now and fix my theory retardedness.
