You would think that more detuning on the high end would make more sense, instead of having more detuning on the low notes. But maybe the greater detuning on the low end makes the harmonic beating more obvious. And having less detuning on higher notes ends up sounding about the same as the low notes harmonic beats. Hope that all makes sense.
If you wanted to make the beats sound closer between higher and lower notes, it does make sense to detune the lower notes more. Let's take the note A2 (110Hz) for example. If you added A#2 (116.54Hz), the frequency of the beats would be equal to the difference in frequencies, or 6.54Hz. If you did the same thing with A4 (440Hz) and A#4 (466.16Hz), the beats would be much faster at 26.16Hz. If you wanted to make beats for the higher octave sound more like the lower one, the higher note would need to be slightly sharp from A4, but not all the way to A#4.
@@pickyyeeter yup very good. That’s effectively what I said: “more detuning on the lower notes would make the harmonics beat at about the same rate as the higher notes.”
Wow! That sounds really good!! Well done!!
Sounds excellent, nice patch idea. Still waiting for mine to show up :)
Nice sound. I may have to get this thing.
Well that sounded good 👍 And thank you for explaining the details 🙏
Nice recommendations. Thank you.

Cool, I thought "where's that phasing/chorus coming from?" until I read your description.
