Few feature suggestions for Dune 2

Postby themachinelt » Mon Apr 13, 2015 7:50 am

- Id love to see Character feature like in U-he Hive, where you can select different type of sound character for the synth. Even Dune 2 is very versitile, but its not always suitable for certain type of sounds, due to its character. Its not easy to get gritty, agressive and dirty sound. Aswel Dune 2 lacks a bit of fatness, roundness (dont know how to describe this) in the very low frequency area (20-60hz).

- To add more detailed Filter Effect options
- LFO rate by 0.1s and 1s
- each synth layer to have option for transpose
- wavetable editor
- load wave
- OSC 1 FM to 2

You can already transpose layers in the MM.

Really? I mean, is there any other synth out there that has a built-in WT editor to justify this as being a valid request? :shock:

Please explain how to do that ;)

Despite that you can do this via MM, its only for ease of use for faster workflow.

MSEG per unison voice.
I can only have them affect all voices globally.

You can set an MSEG to only affect certain voices in the MM.

Would be appreciated:

- Sine waveform as regular VA (sine is "the basic" for all analog synths). I don't understand why Sine is as wavetable, mysterious for me...
- A serious WT editor (even external), and/or WAV support for wavetables (like Xfer Serum). Audio-Term utility is simply a joke, aren't? :D antique MS-DOS look-like (do I need an Hercules videocard?), 8.3 filenames WTF! (regression).
- A new arpeggiator, I mean a real (layer) module in GUI, not on LCD because it's unreadable, unusable, not user friendly, and the the worse (Oscar for this), we must switch between four pages/tabs to access all 32 steps!
- Vertical faders for ADSR envelopes (filter, amplitude) because it's really difficult to "read" knobs for a "visual representation" about the envelope shape (sorry for my explanation because I'm French, my English isn't perfect... but I hope my explanation is enough clear).
- More explanations about displayed parameters using percent, instead of absolute values. e.g. for cutoff frequency, what's mean the percentage? (50% of what?). Same for ADSRs (A, D and R are times and audio levels, S is an audio level). Same also for Detune (semitones? cents?). Nothing about % representations are explained in PDF manual. Why? really it's not easy for sound designing and to understand the synth mechanisms!

EDITED: DUNE 2 remains an excellent synth, however! I'm loving:
- The Unison Engine (terrible and unique).
- The Mod Matrix (32 slots, for me, it's perfect).
- FM implementation.
- MIDI Program Change, Bank Select MSB/LSB are fully supported (bravo for this!)
- CPU friendly.
- The large LCD screen for preset name and comments (but not for arpeggiator).

I precise I'm legit customer/user (full version 2.21 Windows VST x64) since X-mas 2014.

Thanks.
