Thanks @sntr for the input.
@alino.romano does this problem happen with MIDI from a keyboard controller, or only the computer keyboard MIDI like @sntr is talking about? Thanks.
Instead of closing and reopening the plugin, what if you change the resonator mode to something else and back? Does that fix it?
If not you could also try the body. In this way we might narrow it down.
I have not seen the midi input issue and will investigate.
Huh, I changed the extension to .utu and on my machine it doesn't even let you load the .json anymore, so I didnt' find this issue. I'll try to load a .json and fix. Meanwhile if you change your .json to a .utu hopefully it will work?
The noise component is very important to Sumu.
Each time point is corrected for a each partial, starting from the center of the FFT frame then moving forward or backward. So mapping to ~sinusoids might not br worth it. Maybe there's a Loris resynthesis object for Max out there somewhere?
Glad that works. Everyone wants to protect you from evil people like me who might try to give you a computer program.
here's a past thread with the same idea!

Apparently Aalto is a gateway drug :-)
Works for me. Did you save the link or something? It will change whenever the version changes.
There's no need to sign up for the beta, I'll announce when it's available via the website.
Sumu voices: I'm not totally sure!
here's a newer link: https://discord.gg/BAJYprsU
In the video you sent, you are turning the dial to change the number of voices. Doing so makes more lights in the sequencer, because when voices are turned on their sequencer positions are reset to 0. So you go from all voices being at the same sequencer step to being at diffferent steps.
If you connect the KEY module's gate output in Kaivo to the sequencer trig in, this will do the same thing as turning on "key trig" in Aalto.
Hi stew, I'm trying to understand what your patch is doing but from your description I'm not quite sure of how the notes are being triggered. If you want to just make a small movie and share it with me by email that might be easier.
Aalto and Kaivo should work in the same way as far as the sequencers and triggering.
Each voice does have its own sequencer offset, and these will be different depending on when you reset the sequencers with a MIDI note.
I feel bad Kaivo is still not working smoothly for garf. Lots to do here as I try to get a new synthesizer out. I'll try to get out a Kaivo update soon. Qoqo (our new social media person) is also seeing Kaivo pretty slow on her laptop so hopefully this will help with testing.
Yes, I could add that at some point.
Aalto is at its heart a modular synthesizer—a lot of patches do make sound when the DAW is not running. You can try switching to the default patch to see if this is the case. Or look at the gate level and make sure it is down!
It could be. What kind of computer do you have? What OS and version?
A restart may help!
please keep in touch for a beta announcement!
Not yet. This issue is at the top of my bugfix list though. Thanks for your patience.
Hi @sntr,
Thanks for the clear report. I'm also experiencing infrequent loss of sound like you describe, with the latest version of Kaivo. I'll work to fix this ASAP.
I'll see what I can do about an update for Mac and Windows ASAP.
I appreciate that you updated your post! Glad it's working. Yes, the "mystery reboot" is still all too necessary for Audio Units especially.
Thanks for the update, seriously. It's hard for me to stay on top of what all the DAWs are doing so I can judge how much of a relative pain things are for people and where I should focus.
That sounds annoying. I'll take a look ASAP.
totally.
I guess I will keep making these until the the beta starts properly. Please note that there's nothing to try yet!
I appreciate the notes! Thank you all for your support.
oh yes, I'll make VST3 versions before too long.
Thanks for the thoughts! The Respiro approach you describe is interesting.
Right now I'm working mostly to finish Sumu—meanwhile the world of pricing and distribution is always changing and there's a little part of my brain where I collect this kind of info and try not to overthink it.
OK, here's a new link.

Reminder that the beta is not out yet and nothing is really going on there at the moment! Right now I'm working on the app for making Sumu partial files, called Utu-view. That will be the first release on the discord, as soon as it's possible.
Yes.
The main reason it hasn't happened sooner is that people aren't willing to pay a lot for iPad apps. But I do still want it for myself! So it's still on my list.
There will definitely be more voices! Computers have come a long way since 2010 :-)
