Andy I was able to replicate morphing putting two algorithms together in the same patch and X-fading between them. Now, I know Vortex claims that morphing is different from X-fade but I'm not sure if it does one or the other. I would think it does more X-fade than real morphing. Anyway, Orville does good things in the X-fade style. Those points in between...you know what I'm talking about...are cool and OUT! I was able to replicate some patches sounds better than others. The manual is just a general idea of those algos. You can splice loops (ABABA) with multitap delays feeding a morphing routing matrix...tricky but possible to do. Besides that you can do things that cannot be imagined if not heard. Machines, no matter what is their power and platform openess, are always different. But provided an extremely detailed algorithm information, Orville is the only hardware able to replicate it. I only wish Lexicon gave the user a deeper documentation. They never seemed to be interested to Vortex at all. If it only had at least 10 sec delay I would still own one. best regards Italoop > > This is not correct; using the unit's manual algorithms drawings I w as > > able to replicate almost all Vortex algorithms on my Eventide Orvil le. > > These algos also work on DSP4000/GTR4000/DSP4500/DSP7000/DSP7500. > > Having a better and more in depth description of Vortex algos would > > improve my design a bit.
