hi, I am using a patch I found here in this forum, but for some reason it's inconsistent.
it sounds a little bit like an lfo is connected to the volume, I guess it has to do with the
oscillators phase?

also how would you go about reducing the transient volume?

anybody knows how to fix this?

For anyone who can help..... the patch is here...... https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/13555/picodrumz-extremely-simple-drum-module
Personally I think it needs a better ADSR than the simple [line~] but maybe that's a matter of taste.
Changing [the message to line to [1, 0 2000( and the [pow 4] below to about 50 works better for me.
With a syncopated rhythm triggered manually the pitch seems to vary, but I think that's psychoacoustic...
But it could be the [phasor~] fm though as you say...?
Very hard for me to be sure.

Thanks David
I think it's due to the value of the noise~ and phasor phase
Try this to fix:

you can use the [seed (message to noise~ to set a consistent set of samples from it
but, the state in the filters has to 'settle' after that, hence the [del]
but [line~] can't begin 10 samples after the block starts so [vline~] must be used

edit: actually I think 3 samples is enough delay.. 1 for each filter
not sure what the deal is on those number boxes for phase.. range should be 0-1..

@seb-harmonik.ar edit: i get the error :vline : no method for del and no sound at all

@Konked2 you have to connect the [del] to the message box that is going into [vline~]
also maybe you made a message [del( instead of an object [del]?

@seb-harmonik.ar ok it works, i think it's a little better but the transients are still inconsistent

@Konked2 hmm.. maybe you're still missing something? here's the edited patch
or maybe there is inconsistency and my speakers aren't good enough to tell
picodrumz.pd

send a [clear( message to all filters

@seb-harmonik.ar ok it's consistent now, thanks !
btw if I wanted to reduce the transients volume, how would i do that? adsr?

@Konked2 maybe make an attack part of the envelope.. right now it jumps up to one instantly

@lacuna good call, forgot about clear

@seb-harmonik.ar how do you do that? with the 1, 0 100 messege?

@Konked2 yes
