Is it possible to assign a knob to the multistep modulator?
Idea is to have a note held out and then fade in the modulation through turning the knob.

jp-8000 pot problem

17 Aug 2010, 20:29
Hey guys,

I have a very frustrating problem with my jp-8000.

I noticed one day that my range knob stop working. Since I never really used the
knob I didn't put too much thought into it and just figured I'd fix it when I
got around to it. the temp scope said that it was stuck at +110.

But now, I am completely unable to play the synth. After I select any preset the
range knob will flutter between +110 and +112 and sometimes jump all the way to
+wide, no matter where the knob actually is. I don't have to touch the knob, it
will make this jump after I play a few keys


I've done a lot of experimenting, and here is what I know so far:

1. At first I was able to temporarily change the range by pressing the knob down
a bit.

----------------------
If I turned the knob without any pressing the synth would not register the
movement. This only worked a few times before it completely stopped. It reminded
me of a pair of junky headphones. eventually the solder gets loose and you need
to fidget with the chord to get the phones to work again, but eventually you
need to open up the phones and re-solder.


2. The problem is completely isolated to the range knob.

----------------------
Aside from removing the key bed to regrease some keys I've never gone much
deeper inside the synth. I thought the unresponsiveness might be wires needing
to be resoldered(like a guitar pot) but I found out that this is not how the
knobs work, they are directly attached the board. I decided I could only do more
harm than good and quickly reassembled my synth.

3. The fluttering is encouraged by physical movement.

----------------------
If I hardly press a key the range scope may not jump. This is not always
constant, as the knob will jump on its own as well. But when the synth is played
it certainly expedites the process


Well, that's about all of the information I can think of right now. If anyone
has any advice I'd really appreciate it. Through my experience it seems that
when a computer board goes you need to replace the entire board. I really hope
this isn't the case!

lo-fi on the g

anybody found a way to make samples sound lo-fi??

i know about lo-fi compression, radio and noise, those are cool indeed, but i mean a bit crusher effect, like in cubase or the one in motif xs, where you can reduce the bitrate and frequency.

Thanks!

assign tva knob to multistep Modulator

Is there a way to assign a tva knob to the multistep modulator ?
The idea is to have a chord held out and turn the knob to up the modulation slowly. I know it can be done with the LFO but I'm limited on what movements an LFO can do.
