For some reason it will not let me access my messages or PM you because it says I don't have access.

Icarus / Backup media

Sorry. But this does not seem to be true. I tested it in 3 different web browsers on 3 different systems. Nowhere was the optional backup media automatically added unless you manually clicked on 'add to chart' for the backup media. There are also no other users who reported something like this.
If you wish feel free to contact me with a PM and I will try to find a solution for you.

There is a 10$ backup media to be mailed to you automatically included you have to reject with your order.  I don't know why this is there now as it is something I have never seen from you guys before.  I didn't notice it until after I accepted payment so now I guess I am stuck paying for it despite never wanting a physical copy mailed to me.

Icarus / Re: Icarus feature requests

The pitchwheel behaves this way since 8 years and we did not get a single request from another user that it should changed.
The opposite was true before the threshold feature was introduced. We occasinally received mails from people with wonky pitchwheels asking 'why is the synth slightly out of tune?'
So obviously it works fine in the current stage for all other people including myself.
I noted your feature request, aswered to you quickly, told you a workaround and told you that I will take care of your demand of it in the next update. There is no need to spam about it here.

The threshold for the pitchwheel is a feature that is intended.

Explanation:
There are plenty of old/crappy Midi Keyboards out there. They do not longer center the pitchwheel exactly and return Midi pitchbend values that are slightly off. This can make synthesizer plugins be out-of-tune, expecially if they are set to a high pitchbend range like +-12 semitones. The threshold in Icarus in the center of the pitchbend fixes this problem.

I'll check out if it is possible to lower the threshold a bit for the next update.

You can get a more fine pitchwheel resolution if you change PitchWheel+-12 to +-2 in the top left of the synthesizer.

Not sure why my previous comment has been deleted.....?

Since this is the feature request thread; I would like to see an option to set a pitchwheel offset/threshold

Seems something is weird with the pitchbend in Icarus 3.

The first 20 cents the pitch isn't changing. @ 20 cents the pitch suddenly changes to +/- 20 cents and then resumes the bend.

EDIT: Not sure why this has been modified. It truly is the first 50 cents, not 20..
