I say "different" as "better" is a subjective thing, although to my ears the patches I've noticed this on have generally sounded a bit better. Naturally, it depends on what you're after in a particular sound. I also noticed this difference is much more noticeable in some patches than others (so much so that without back to back tests I can't tell the difference on some). Presumably this is because some patches don't use the parts that have audibly changed. If anyone is particularly interested, I'd be happy to make mp3s/wavs of the different files available. I could also try loading both into an oscilliscope and seeing how noticeable the visual differences are.
I'm assuming this is down to improvements in certain parts of the synth in OS3.
* By "quite clearly" I mean a real tangible difference in sound that anyone with a remotely trained ear for music/sound, even a non-synthesist would recognise instantly, not some questionable minutae that hi-fi addicts would argue fruitlessly over.  |
please make those mp3s available. i'm really curious what you're talking about.
