microkorg question

I was hoping someone who has a microkorg could help me
out.

I'm trying to create a patch where vibrato gets stronger the
longer you hold down the note. Like, when you first press
the key, there is no vibrato, but as you hold it in, the
vibrato depth grows, up to a maximum amount.

It's easy to set up constant vibrato by making a patch from
LF.2 -> Ptc and setting the MOD INT to adjust the depth. But
since you can't set a patch's MOD INT as the destination
param of a patch, I can't figure out how to do what I want.

Any ideas? Is it possible?

don't know the microkorg specifically but if you can apply
an env (with long attack) to the lfo, that's it

It seems with the microkorg you can only apply an EG to an
LFO's frequency, not the amount the LFO affects the
pitch parameter. I don't want the vibrato to speed up; I
want it to bend the pitch more and more.

Yeah, you can't do it on an mK. You MIGHT be able to do
something with the EG and the frequency, but it won't be the
exact thing you're looking for.

End result: Get an Alesis Ion.

or you could do it by hand =)
raise the depth according to your taste while playing

btw, it's really weird they didn't provide a way to do that
on the microkorg
it's like, one of the most common feature of every synths i
tried, oh well...

You would be surprised at how many synths overlook that.

Yeah, I can't seem to do it on the Subtractor, (the
subtractive synth in Reason) either.

You can do it with Subtractor. Its roundabout, but you can
do it. I don't use reason anymore because I don't use
cracked software, so I can't explain how (I forget).

Ok, I figured out how to do it with the Subtractor.

First, set up your patch so that the mod wheel affects the
vibrato depth. This is easy: Set LFO1 dest to OSC1,OSC2, and
turn up the mod wheel's LFO knob to the max vibrato depth
you want. Set LFO1 amount to 0. Set LFO1 rate to the vibrato
rate you want.

Now, (on the back) run a patch cord from Modulation Output:
Mod Env -> Modulation Input: Mod Wheel.

Now set the Mod Env as follows:
A=length of time for vibrato to fully come in
D=0
S=max
R=0
