Unison Change

Velocistar · started 2017-06-13 05:08 · updated 2017-07-08 00:28

I want to make better sounding chords in Audiotool, but the current unison in the Heisenberg doesn't do the job right for me when it gets to 3 or 4 voices. I would like to suggest changing the unison so that the sweeping effect is either toggled, or removed.

the sweeping sound you are hearing is caused by each voice starting on the same phase
this is fixed by changing randomizing the starting phase of each voice, which is not implemented into the heisenberg
there is a manual work around by using phase modulation on a square wave that barely moves by dragging down the semitone until it displays --.---- then drag the offset to 0.01, then any oscillators modulated by the square oscillator will have their phase offset by that percentage, then all you have to do is manually detune, pan, and phase offset each of the 3 other oscillators and you're done
a bit complicated but it's worth it in the end

I can confirm that this is not a bug, unless the sweeping unison effect was not intentional. Either way, I'm not sure how I can go about describing it. It's hard to explain. Polyspace did a pretty good job doing so, though. Apologies for taking so long for replying. I wasn't sure how to go about it.

i think it is actually a feature request
an option on the heisenberg to distribute the phase randomly for each voice in the unison

vvv Exactly what Polyspace said.

yes please, i need this lmao
also maybe with this, there could be the option to turn up the unison even higher than 4
