Are the EP FX synced to host tempo?

    Well, I'm interested in Elektrik Piano and had a quick play with it in my local music shop. I find it sounds really nice, however I noticed some cool FX in certain patches.
    Do they sync to the host tempo or do we have to tweak them by ear?

    Thanks in advance for some clarification.

    Yup, they should sync to host tempo.

    Some of those special FX programs were my babies. :) They show off some of the amazing extended programming features available in Kontakt.

    thanks a lot m8.
    Nice to hear the good news one expects :D :D :D

    I just wasn´t sure, since I didn´t see any sync button on the interface.

    Yup. My understanding is that if sync was enabled within the programming (i.e. instead of Hz settings I chose actual beat values, which I did), then Elektrik Piano should automatically sync that.

    With some of those FX patches, they wouldn't make any sense if they weren't synced to tempo, so that's probably why there's no sync button on the interface -- you wouldn't WANT to turn it off. If by chance you want to switch, for example, between an eighth note and a quarter note oscillation, you could always open it up in Kontakt and alter it.

    Makes perfect sense.
    However, I didn´t have enough time to play with it (the guy in the shop always being in my back, asking me "Do you like it?").
    Well, thanks for your precious answers. Appreciate it ;)
