    Just open the structure , go into the 1st or second voice row then in the Oscillator macro: you will find a "Tuning" macro with a fixed value for each "voice card": just set different values ;-)

    although it says Ma Lord in the UL, i am pretty sure it is Max Lord, check out http://www.wiresounds.com/. anyway, he used to be quite an active programmer back in Reaktor 3 days. there are a couple of other things in the UL, under Max Lord.

    Thanks for the advice re. the voices -- works now.

    Having really enjoyed the CS-80V some time back on a computer that wasn't worthy, I just sprung for a used copy on eBay. I'm pretty stoked, actually.

    I stand by and waiting people for collaborating into this update of the CEES80, waiting for the more experts to drive me with good advices in this partially unknown univese of Reaktor!

    Just as a beginning I assembled a primitive macro of a ringmodulator which , as an experiment, doesn't feature neither envelope nor anything else, just two sines slammed into a multiplier with crossfade at the end of the path.What matters is that I tweaked the modulator to make it sound exactly how the original CS ringmod modulator does: I used the multi breakpoint waveshaper and once set the shape curve I simply took away what I didn't need.
    Just a question: one of the characteristic of the CS synthesizer is to have a very "siney" sound, meaning with this that the fundamental is boosted in some ways; my goal is to design even the amplitude behaviour of the rm which has a louder sound of the modulator so the sound has a peculiar colour.

    What I think that is the secret of this boosting lies with a reasonable amount of certainity in the end of the sound path: in the original design there is a pre-amp and a loudness network which features a shelving 6dB lowpass, also driven by the pedal: I made an analysis of it and the response (parabolic) has some non linearities which contribute to fill the soundspace.
    What do you think?
