I actually have a patent on it :-) >If you add your bass note in the audio, do you have >any control over the timbre or voice-selection? If you want a separate bass to appear, you want to select its sound, and MIDI is probably the best. But if you just want to add the "orchestral" function of a bass discretely, you stick with the guitar sound and add the lower fundamental with some third to make it appear. Since the lower octave is in phase, it melts with the original string sounds as if they were the harmonics. As for the attack, the original of the guitar is enough, very low frequencies in it are just disturbing. - yes, I have not seen any other octaver work like this... >thanks, >harveyS welcome, tell me how its going... >http://www.starrlabs.com this did not work for me, unfortunately all internal links said "not found"... > >>At 04:50 PM 11/3/00 -0300, you wrote: >>>>>My guitar is already "polyphonic" - what does the system you speak of >>>>>actually do? >>>>> >>>> >>>>have a look at http://Matthias.Grob.org/pParad/Parad.htm > >>>and http://Matthias.Grob.org/pEE/Invent.htm > > -- ---> http://Matthias.Grob.org
