Similarly, I would love to play with the fof_* voice instruments, but I don't know how to use them. For example, why are there two different pitches (p4 and p5), and what are the legal values for the start and end vowels (p9 and p10). Sorry if I'm being a pain today, I'm just taking advantage of some time to look at these things, and these questions result from a little bit of frustration at not being able to just "jump in" and use these instruments effectively without a bunch of time-costly trial and error. You know I wouldn't be asking these questions if blue was not my main (and favorite) composition environment! :-) - Dave Dave Seidel wrote: > Steven et al., > > If I add a BlueSynthBuilder instrument to my orchestra, how do I > discover what the p-field format is for the instrument?
