Die neue Firmware 4.1 wird es bald für die komplette HX3-Familie geben. Hier die neuen Features in Kürze:

• Überarbeitetes Scanner-Vibrato mit neuer Parametrierung, getrennt für Chorus und Vibrato; es vereint die Vorzüge von altem Chorus und neuem Vibrato - dies dürfte nun keine Wünsche mehr offenlassen! Hier die Parameter im Einzelnen:
  • Scanner Gears: Vibrato-Modulationsfrequenz
  • Scanner Leak: Parasitäres Durchsingen des unmodulierten Signals bei V1/V2/V3
  • VibCh AmplMod: Modulation der oberen Grenzfrequenz der LC-Linebox
  • VibCh Preemphasis: Höhenanhebung des Vibrato-Chorus-Kanals
  • VibCh Reflect: Reflexionen auf der LC-Linebox durch Fehlanpassung bzw. gealterte Kondensatoren, fügt ein dezentes "Schwummern" hinzu
  • VibCh Response: obere Grenzfrequenz der LC-Linebox 0.. 8 kHz
  • Ch LineboxLvl: Anteil Vibrato bei Chorus
  • Ch BypassLvl: Anteil unmoduliertes Signal bei Chorus
  • V1 ModAmount: Modulationstiefe bei V1
  • ...
  • C3 ModAmount: Modulationstiefe bei C3
• Bessere Nachbildung des Tastenklicks bei sehr sanftem Anschlag (in Arbeit)
• Einzel-Einstellbarkeit der Busbar-Pegel für individuelle Anpassung der Fußlagen (derzeit nur mit HX3 Remote)

Wer sich als Beta-Tester betätigen will, findet die Vorab-Version in unserem Github im Verzeichnis BETA.


Firmware 4.1 has a new chorus/vibrato routing, adding new parameters in menu and HX3 Remote. Only use with FPGA #25092016. New params are:

• Scanner Gears: Vibrato modulation frequency
• Scanner Leak: Leakage of unmodulated signal on V1/V2/V3
• VibCh AmplMod: Modulation of upper frequency limit of LC linebox
• VibCh Preemphasis: Treble enhancement on Vib/Ch
• VibCh Reflect: Reflections on LC linebox due to aged capacitors
• VibCh Response: upper frequency limit of LC linebox
• Ch LineboxLvl: Vibrato mix on Chorus C1/C2/C3
• Ch BypassLvl: Dry mix on Chorus C1/C2/C3
• V1 ModAmount: Modulation depth on V1
• ...
• C3 ModAmount: Modulation depth on C3
• Adjustable busbar levels for each drawbar (by HX3 Remote only)

Beta testers will find the new firmware in our github repository.

I've downloaded and installed the new Firmware without problems, and input most of my previous settings so I'm starting from more or less the same point soundwise. Plenty of new parameters to look at! So far the sound of the chorus/vib 'out of the box' is great - the only change I've done is to the scanner frequency, which I moved to 48 as I prefer the slightly faster chorus (as per my B3). When I figure out how all the other adjustments interact I'll see if there are any interesting improvements to be had, though I think it unlikely - I might be needing the default.csv if it all goes wrong :-)

I've had some time to play around with the HX3 editing with my B3 connected in order to make some comparisons. I now have the Chorus/Vib virtually identical and it sounds great. I've attached the csv file for anyone to make comparisons or try out by uploading it to the HX3. The Midi CC set will need setting to something else if you aren't using the Hammond XK set. I made a few alterations to the different chorus settings and I revised my scanner gearing speed to 67 since I had the B3 running to compare directly. The other adjustment that helped to match my B3 was to lower the Busbar Level 16 to 195. I'm sure this will vary from model to model but it's great to have the possibility to change it. The amplification used, and the audio outputs from the HX3, will also affect the final sound so this is a setting that works for me (I play through a Leslie 147 with a modified tube amp - an updated Leslie Type 100).

So far 4.1 Beta is working without problems and the extra editing possibilities are really helping to fine tune my HX3/XK3 combo. Thanks Carsten.

Hallo zusammen,

ich konnte nicht länger warten und habe ebenfalls das Beta auf meine B3 (HX3) gezogen:

Lieber Carsten; HÖLLE!
Ganz ausgezeichnet das Scanner Vibr C3.
Das singt richtig jetzt wie meine alte A100.
Version läuft wunderbar stabil.
Genial!

Du bist der beste.
LG
Dan

Hallo Carsten,

ein Vorschlag für die neue Version: Könnte man den Menupunkt "Save Tabs to Pre" so fixieren, dass er auf "on" bleibt beim Ausschalten? Ich muss nach jedem Neustart neu von Hand auf "on" schalten, um wieder die Perc-Einstellungen auf den Presets zu haben.

Und ich würde gern die Presets 9-16 ebenfalls für das Obermanual nutzen, da ich kein UM einsetze.

Geht das? Wäre super!

Vielen Dank Mojo

Ich habe auch die 4.1 auf meine MAG-UC1 gespielt. V/C läßt jetzt kaum mehr Wünsche offen ! Klasse Carsten!
Eines ist mir noch aufgefallen: Durch die Parameter für den Drive Regler (A028...) lassen weniger Verzerrung zu, als in den früheren Versionen. Ich muß den Drive Regler und die Parameter 459 und 460 voll aufdrehen um eine minimale Verzerrung zu erreichen. Ich glaube, dass war schon einmal anderes. Vielleicht könnte man da nochmal dran schauen.

Ansonsten wirkt die Beta sehr ausgereift und klingt saugut !

Manne

Could someone please post the default settings of the new parameters?

Thanks!

Mitch
