Program and source v1.01 (22-11-2008)
For the introduction of the formant classic on the Elektor Live Event, I made a lot of changes:
A complete make over of the interface module. It now includes voice selection, Unison selection,
potamento and glisando.
Implemented an alternative way of gating and triggering that enables the possibility to add a sequencer and or appegiator and allow the addition of new envelope modules.
Implemented new velocity sensetive linear or exponential envelope modules based on the HV-Formant modules.
