The new modelled waveshapes in version 2.7 have both changed waveforms and added overdrive. The new modelled saw is not so different from the old saw, so no
To make the Adam Borseti bank sound like before the squares should be changed to the old square (OSq). And we made a new modelled square wave in version 2.7. It was the 2 things mentioned above that was the problem. Adam Borseti bank will now load correct.
To make all imported patches sound correct, it will set older patches In version 2.7 the Harmonics sliders affect all oscillators in the synth. Because of that users have set harmonics to random values since it had no impact In earlier versions the Harmonics slidersĪffected only the sine wave.
When importing patches from earlier versions, the ME80 will detect it and set Harmonics sliders to max. After the addition of new filters, the coloured Yamaha preset buttons (like FUNKY1) could default to notch filters. Use the same download links as version 2.0. In short, it’s the next best thing to owning an actual Minimoog.ME80 updated to version 2.71. You do at least get a few extra filter modes and the ability to shift the global tuning up and down, but the point is that Monark not only captures the sound of the original synth, but also its workflow, feel and - yes – limitations. The developers were so focused on authenticity that Monark makes few concessions to modern standards - there’s no polyphony, no pulse width modulation, no dedicated LFOs and certainly no effects, for example. It has an amazingly realistic retro sound and has been put together with meticulous attention to detail (including oscillator drift and wonky keytracking) resulting in an incredibly convincing sound. Perhaps the king of all Minimoog emulations, Native Instruments’ Monark is an Ensemble for Reaktor and Reaktor Player - deployable as a plugin or standalone - that painstakingly models every quirk and nuance of the real thing.
