DUNE 3 Fine Pitch Bug

Postby Tim Jordan » Thu Jan 09, 2020 8:10 pm

Hi, the Fine pitch in the oscillator section in DUNE seems exponential. Pitching it down 32 cents doesn't actually pitch it down 32 cents. In order to pitch it down 32 cents, I have to pitch it down 68 cents. However, pitching it down 100 cents does pitch it down 100 cents.
Also, it's lacking a master tuner that lets you tune the whole thing to 432hz rather than having to pitch every single oscillator, which is quite the hassle.

Other than that (and the stereo spread algorithm I posted about earlier) I love this thing. Thanks for the dope synth :)

It's not a bug but intended behavior. Detune by ear not by the readout. :wink:

Richard has addressed this in the past......

if its intended behaviour, the readout should reflect the actual number, or be removed

Probably a bit late now. Richard's quote above was from 2015 and referred to Dune 2.

In Dune 3 the readout is correct at +-100 cents, there is just a bit finer resolution at the lower end of the knob range.

Not a big deal either way. Just detune by ear...... :cowboy:
