If I load up several instances of, say rob papen stuff, NI stuff, some logic stuff, how come they tend to be out of tune with each other. I figure having these all tuned correctly would be a very basic thing!
Sometimes when you change the osc or fundamental tuning of a patch it changes the characteristics of the patch in a negative way. Anyone else have this out of tune experience?

Re: Softsynths & Tuning
soft synths should never chnage tuning unless you tell them too, or there is a bug of some sort.db2 wrote:

possibly the second issue you mention is due to some positions in the synth being static (e.g. self resonating filter), and this position therefore drifts out of sync when the tuning of oscialltors is changed.
Also it is normal for synth patches to sound different at different pitches, but normally this is only significantly notceable with a change in pitch greater than an octave.
Maybe take a look at it through a frequency analyser to check you are hearing what you expect? I've never had this issue, but that would be my first step.[/url]
