Perform Mode and it's dryness

Perform Mode and it's dryness

Hi friends ! I have own the divine JV 1080. I use it for many years.

But I still can't find an answer to something very important. When I'm in multitimbral mode (Perform) most of the patches loose their original effects and the sound of the patches are way different than the same patches used in Patch mode. Most of the time I add some reverb to the dry patch to make it sound richer but many of the effects have have more effects to them so I can't duplicate them 100%.

Are there any tricks, ways ... for using or call back the effects in Perform mode that are used in Patch mode. I even bought 4 expansions (still not arrived) and I'm afraid that I would not be able to use their big potential. Thanks

the problem is that every patch has a reverb, a chorus and an effect (delay, distortion, ecc.).
In performance you have a 1 global reverb, 1 global chorus and, 1 effect (2080 and 5080 can hold 3 effects), so I think you can copy exactly one patch, the other patches of the performance have to share the settings for effects.

Mugnaio, thank you ! So in other words there is no way i can use the unique effects of the original preset (in Patch mode) in Performance mode .. Or I'm missing something ?

You can copy the chorus, reverb and effect settings from the patch of the Part 1 (or any part you like) on the performance effect settings, then the part 1 will be the same as the original patch. But you can't also do the same for part 2, because you can have only 1 rev, 1 chorus and 1 effect in the performance mode.

note also you have to set the level of the effect for the part. You can set the reverb the same as the patch, but if the send level of the reverb in Part 1 is set to 0, the part will be "dry"
