MicroDexed - DX7 to go

[C0d3man]

Hi @scipione205,

@scipione205

Thank you a lot, all hail open source.

Thanks, but I am standing on the shoulders of giants. I completely reused the Dexed engine and took much advantage from the Teensy audio stack.

@scipione205

Do you think would be feasible to implement a split function (two patches at the same time, 8 voices each, splitting the keyboard in half)? And also basic functions like hold (plays a key pressed once, till you press another one)?

Yes and Yes.

Splitting is on my roadmap. Currently the code must be organized better… it works, but it’s not really nice. The Teensy has enough RAM to start a second engine of Dexed with an other voice - perhaps with more than 8 notes per voice…

@scipione205

I did a quick view at the code, just tell me if it’s worth for me to invest time in studying it.

It should not be a big problem and I would be very happy if you want to help
Current steps for this would be:

• Add a second audio queue
• Add a Mixer4 object and virtually patch both queues to the Mixer4 and the output of the Mixer4 towards the effects
• Create a second Dexed engine which uses the second queue
• Decide where to put the split point an route the MIDI messages corresponding

I hope to cleanup the code until mid February.

Regards, Holger
