Bou,

Do you still need help wit testing? I'm also interested in this one, and i'm pretty sure it will be quite usable on my more "New Agy" songs.

Hi Ahs

It's not a regular synth, so the workflow is pretty different.

First of all generators 1-7 are all routed to the same keys. no matter which key you press from C-2 till B2 all play the same note/samples.
They play the samples you select in generators 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and/or 7.

So, first select the samples you think fit together in generators 1-7
Turn up the volume on each generator (just above 0, if you let the volume sit at 0, the sample will not be loaded).
This is how I designed it because otherwise all 7 generators will always play a sample. In IDT you can't 'turn on' a sample on the fly when a key is already pressed.

After you selected the samples and turned up the volume you can just press any key in the range C-2 till B2 to hear the ambiance play. The samples will be played and looped. I suggest you create a track, draw in a C2 note and let it play for 15 minutes.

Use the mute button to mute the generators you currently don't want to hear so you can finetune the others. The Solo button will only work when you press it, this button won't stay pushed down (a limitation of IDT). So now you can finetune the samples till a perfect ambiance is created.

With the keys C3 and up you can then play solo samples as needed. Each key is mapped to a particular sample. They are all routed to generator 8.

Each generator has an EDIT button, when selected the FX section will be usable for ONLY THAT PARTICULAR generator with the RED EDIT button on.
When you press the main EDIT button, the FX section is applied to the MAIN MIX.

Hope thisl claryfies things a bit. I think it's a good workflow but you need to get used to it. Remember it's a ambiance generator, not intended as being a sample player or synth.

This has pricked my ears up. I own and love the Mixfood Unison Xs. I wonder if I could be considered to take a look at the Ambient Generator? My username on props is the same as here: XysteR

I just found this "Nature Mixer" online and am having some fun this morning...so wanted to throw this out for your perusal since it seems related (and can't wait for the Mixfood Ambient Generator!)
