I can get all parameters to communicate properly between my Slim Phatty and the AU/VST editor apart from the octave up/down buttons…
Changing them on the plugin doesn’t seem to affect the Slim Phatty, changing them on the synth resets their value to 0 on the plugin no matter what the value is on the synth.
Is this normal? Is it a bug?
The latest version of code (3.1) [documented within the 3.1 doc addendum] uses CC#89 to set octave range of keyboard as -2, -1, 0, etc. but prior versions did not have anything defined for this function.
Could be that you are not on the latest code (or do not have the latest version of the editor)… OR the software was never updated to support this function.
Certainly (and I’m sure you know this), octave by ‘footing’ is selectable for each OSC but if you have older code OR if Soundtower never supported it, the default setting for where the keyboard sits when a patch is brought up might not be controllable between editor and Phatty.
Note that this is very different from storing the preferred keyboard range within a Patch. That, I think, applies to all Phatty code but is buried within the SysEx preset bytes and has nothing to do with controlling it between keyboard and editor.
Hope this helps but I have to apologize since I don’t have the latest version of the editor.
