Help/advice fixing this "drop" (stuck at the end).
So basically I'm working on the intro for a song I'm demoing up, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to coax another note out of the first part of this stupid drop before it stops playing. You'll see what I mean if you go hear and listen to it https://soundcloud.com/cy_mk/vs-song-2- ... ntro-piece its about 2 seconds. I feel like it will sound like its come completely to a stop if I could just get one more "draggy" pitched down note out of it. Sort of like a record stopping. If that makes any sense? This is really driving me up the wall lol. Here's a picture of my pitch settings if it helps any.

Maybe duplicate the instrument onto another track and hit the other note with it.

This is tricky, and the type of Frankenstein job I was trying to avoid lol, because to do this I would basically have to turn it into audio and grab/crop out the last note. In midi form this is actually a chord where all the notes play at the same time, but the pitch, and lfo effects are making it sound like one note descending. I'm pretty sure there's away I can do it using just operator, and it'd be as simple as a parameter adjustment in one of the synth's 4 envelopes (base, pitch, filter, or LFO) but I have no idea which lol.glenn303 wrote:Maybe duplicate the instrument onto another track and hit the other note with it.
UPDATE: I changed the attack on the Pitch Envelope from 3.20s to 3.90s and I think got it pretty much. Still I'm curious as to how someone else would work this out, in order to get the result I'm describing in the OP. Madness I tell you lol. Here's the difference

Re: Help/advice fixing this "drop" (stuck at the end).
the operator screen shot shows that You use just one osc and parallel algorithm, so You've got like 3 more sounds within the operator ready to use, and although all of them go through the same filter, still You may design completely new sound with each of them.
Also if You need to make the sound of each oscillator more complex but still have all four parallel - use automodulator.
[edit]
just read the OP once more, and got one thought - to go deeper with the slide, change the osc coarse to 2 or 4 and repitch transpose to -12 or -24 (if You put coarse to 4 and set fine to 1000, change the transpose to -36), so You'll get another 1 or 2 (or even 3) octaves extra. All You need then is to automate osc fine tune to slide from 1000 to 0 once every coarse change (as the coarse represent the actual harmonic number, it should go through 4, 2, 1, 0.5). Check the filter section for frequency differences.
