Re: Snare Drum decay too long (v1.02) [SOLVED]

Just wanted to mention here for anyone else that might have the same problem; I had this issue on my v1.0L. The envelope of one of the oscillators was too long (as has been mentioned earlier). In my case it seems to have been ENV2 that was the culprit, because when I put the 1MOhm over the ENV3 cap I noticed no difference, but when doing it on ENV2 the problem disappeared. So now I have them both mounted.

I'll see if I can post some before/after samples but basically before it sounded like a metal spring in the decay or something :-)

Here are some oscilloscope screenshots

ENV2 before modding, quite long...

ENV2 after 1MOhm Resistor:

So I did this to env2 and env3 after listening to the "stock" NAVA Snare and I actually liked some of the tonal qualities of the longer snaredrum. I think it is a little too "tight" now - any different values I could try or what trimmer would you recommend?

If in some builds the issue doesn't appears and in other a 1M resistor makes it right, I would say a 1M trimmer...
