Title: Binaural Stereo Routing - Parallel Filters to Parallel Amps Panned Left/Right
Post by: creativespiral on November 03, 2019, 04:47:55 am

It would be awesome if you could add a mode that would allow routing the parallel filters into parallel amps and have them panned hard right and hard left.   

I'm guessing this *may be* technically possible since there seems to be a second amp that allows the Duo Split behavior.   Not sure about if there's limitations with how the amp(s) are routed to effects to output... but even if the the effects only affected one side, it would be a worthy implementation (you could just bypass effects and take advantage of the binaural sound)   It may be impossible if the two amps are hard wired to be summed mono before effects section.

If this could be done, this would be amazing for sound design, allowing huge/wide binaural stereo fields like that in DSI Evolver, Moog's Matriarch, and the UDO Super 6.   Makes it possible to create lead sounds that have a ton of presence and really cut through a mix.  I use my Poly Evolver in binaural mode all the time for leads and it sounds amazing.   

Bonus points if you could add a Mod Destination for L/R Panning for modulating the two amps left and right.

That's fixed in hardware, with mono into the FX section. One possibility though, is to complement the MxB with an external module for panning, controlled by one of the CV outputs. Not quite the same, but cool nonetheless.

Edit: "info" -> "into"

",,,with mono info the FX section"

Do you mean "mono INTO the FX section" ? Can you elaborate?

Yeah, that's a typo, sorry. The audio path between the VCA(s) and the FX section is mono. That's also where the insert point is.

Thanks for the clarification on mono routing to the effects section.   Was thinking that might be the case.   Maybe for a MxB2 in the future  :)

Go wild and get a Make noise QPAS to run the Brite into.
