Although no luck on macOS, tried it on my Linux machine (Firefox) and everything’s fine now. Thank you for the update!

Sometimes MacOs needs a reboot, I think the issue exists in Linux too.

No problems with Windows.
Thanks for the candy, that was a nice touch, haha.

So great to get an update based off ideas from the thread so quickly! I’ve been loving mm2 since I got it. Been exploring making more lofi sounding patches lately. I swear it can get a kind Akai s950 lofi warm sound to it with a bit of white noise, drive, subtle fm filter. I’m finding it has just the right level of depth for me to create complex patches (by my standard) without getting lost in the process.

A few patches I’ve made and liked (but played really badly for demo)

I wish I implemented this before honestly, the alt button was under utilized. Now it feels like a solid and helpful feature.
Thanks for your suggestion

Not to forget: scale/chord/chord sets for incoming MIDI

I personally think mm2 should stick to sound design tools, those things you can do with a sequencer

Outstanding sound design & demo, thank you for the music!

@elektrosamplist Would it be possible to add another QoL improvement related to the Alt button?

I think it would be convenient if:

When:

  • The user is on the OSC1 page, and
  • OSC1 is in one of the FM-capable modes(carrier),

Then:

  • Pressing the Alt button opens the OSC3(modulator) page, instead of MIX page.

Unfortunately, this didn’t come to my mind earlier.

How are people using the bi-timbral feature on this? Are you going bass/lead, lead/pad, pad/arp, something/other?

Either contrasting patches like bass/ lead, bass/pad and eq+ filter to keep them apart in the mix, or complimentary patches that exist in the same space like pads and wash them with reverb.

Usually the former tbh, as a single pad patch can be complex enough

other/other a.k.a. every slot can be anything

I usually use combis, which I call up via program change from Tonverk or OP-XY.

I think we need the Alt-program change from the OP-Z into the OP-XY to fix this issues

Hi everyone,

A quick introduction: I’m Hugo Lopes, founder of Soundbank.Studio, a small independent sound design studio based in Spain.

We’re currently developing Monsta Fields: Aftertouch Vol. 1, an independent soundbank for the MicroMonsta 2 focused on aftertouch, velocity and performance control.

We’ve released a free 12-program Tester Pack to gather feedback from MicroMonsta 2 owners and help us shape and improve the complete collection.

You can listen to the programs and get the Tester Pack at soundbank.studio.

You can also watch the full demo of all 12 programs on YouTube.

The Tester Pack includes a short feedback form where you can tell us how the programs feel to play, how they respond to your controller, what could be improved and what kinds of sounds you would like to find in the complete soundbank.

Thanks for taking a look, and I hope you enjoy the sounds!
