[Galan-list] Frustration!

[Dave R. <dro...@co...>]

Hi all,

I've been trying all day to get a simple little one-voice synth going  
in galan to no avail (I'm not exactly a synth n00b either....).

This is the best I can come up with:  
http://chat.carleton.ca/~drobilla/galan.jpg but the problem is the  
envelope triggers on note on and note off.  I've tried just about  
everything and I'm out of ideas.

What's with the lack of triggers?  I would expect an envelope to have a  
trigger in, 0 being "off" and anything else being "on" (so you could  
just hook up velocity to it).  It seems like triggers in galan trigger  
when the input signal changes at all?

Anyway, if anyone could enlighten me how to get a simple synth going in  
galan, it'd be much appreciated.  I see a lot of potential in galan  
(and I'm frankly sick of dealing with the horridness that is AMS)

I'd be happy to make some examples for the web page once I figure  
things out (they're certainly needed), or even full-blown synth patches  
for download

Thanks,

-Dave
