Absynth 5 - Tuning Patches to diatonic keys?

Hi,

New user here, so I apologize if this has been addressed before - if anybody has links to prior threads I'd appreciate you sharing them.

I am experimenting with some of the patches in the Absynth library and noticed that the overtones, evolving loop patterns etc. often adhere to diatonic major or minor keys of their respective note. For example; if I play Middle C on my keyboard on a certain preset, the overtones contain E flats - implying minor tonality, when I need it to adhere to C Major. Everything else about it is perfect for this song, but I need to be able to stay in the key as I move notes to different roots during chord changes.

Make sense? I'd appreciate any help that could be offered.

 

To my knowledge, there's no way of transposing diatonically like that, but what you could do as a workaround is to tune the oscillators producing the offending 3rds (and/or 7ths or whatever) to their major tonality for the key you're working in, assign them to a controller with a depth of 5%, and then automate (or ride the mod wheel or other CC) with the chord changes.
