    I've uploaded a synth -- although hopefully you won't need to look at it -- for which the ensemble-level snapshots exhibit the following unspeakably vile property: When I go from Snap 5 to Snap 4, Snap 4, Snap 4 will sound one way. When you go from Snap 3 to Snap 4, Snap 4 sounds different.

    This same problem cropped up in my first go at a really flexible synth (Sound University) and led me to kill the project. Now it's sprung up again. It wants me dead and there's nowhere I can hide and my car's out of gas and why's there that screechy violin music behind me OH MY GOD wait, no, that was just the drugs, phew.

    Has anyone else encountered this sort of order-dependence in snapshots before?

    (I don't actually condone the use of drugs. Nor violins, under most circumstances.)

    In your documentation folder, there's a subfolder called technical detail information (what a mouthful...).

    There's both a .rtf and a .pdf covering event initialization. That's probably where your problem is...

    My goodness. If you sat me down with the Rosetta Stone I think I could teach myself Egyptian faster than I could decipher those instructions.

    Well, actually each time you jump on preset 4 (even always coming from preset 3) it sounds a bit different. I haven't really looked into your ensemble yet, but it sounds like some feedback that changes the dynamics of the sound a lot. Just a guess..
