@ramagottfried do you still find this issue to be current?
ok just took another look --
the slider position seems fixed.
the second issue is still present:
if you change the frequency of one of the sliders, and then change that frequency’s amplitude value on the amplitude slider, the frequency jumps back to where it was which makes it hard to experiment with.
the third issue thing I mentioned is still present -- the multisliders are tuned to a harmonic spectra, so actually you can't create your own inharmonic spectra, it's always harmonic unless you move the harmonic/inharmonic slider -- which is misleading when you have the harmonic/inharmonic slider set to inharmonic and then try to change the multislider. Maybe if the frequency multislider would be locked, it would be clearer that the point is to listen to the difference between harmonic and inharmonic ratios?
From Rama: "the lower edge of the harmonic partial slider is below the top of the frequency multislider, so often you will select the frequency slider when you mean to select the harmonic-inharmonic slider.
also, right now if you change the frequency of one of the sliders, and then change that frequency’s amplitude value on the amplitude slider, the frequency jumps back to where it was which makes it hard to experiment with.
I think the most successful thing about this patch is the harmonicity slider and generating random offsets and amplitudes. probably we could lock the multisliders and make them less of a focus, or make them more usable — it is also interesting for people to be able to experiment with making their own non-harmonic partials."
