Thoughts on Sart and UVF

[pjd]

Hi,

After exploring some UVF (XML), I started thinking about SArt voices, which should make use AWM2 voice controls similar to Motif/Montage Expanded Articulation.

First off, it looks like UVF supports the following voice types:

    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_DRUM_KIT
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_EKB_NORMAL
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_SVAEM
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_ORGAN_FLUTE
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_SA
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_NATURAL_PIANO
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_EL_ABSOLUTE_VOICE
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_EKB_LEGACY
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_UNIVERSAL
    uvf:VOICE_COMMON_FM

Obviously, we haven't seen any of the interesting voices because YEM does not outright support these types nor does YEM ship with UVF files for SA, AEM, etc. This gives some credence to "UVF" meaning "Universal Voice Format".

Next, the triggerBlock has some interesting properties:

    keyOffSound            ON/OFF
    legato                 ON/OFF
    waveRandom             ON/OFF
    waveCycle              ON/OFF
    controller1On          ON/OFF
    controller2On          ON/OFF
    keyOnDelayTime         integer
    keyOffSoundKeyOffTime  integer

Might legato, controller1On, and controller2On, function like the LEGATO, AF1 and AF2 controls in an Expanded Articulation voice?

Of course, if we want to build an SArt voice, then we need to know the waveform numbers of the sounds without attack. Good luck with that since we don't have a waveform list like the Motif/Montage.

More questions than answers,

Hi pj...

I like also waveRandom and waveCycle proerties tags ) this is Revo
