JP8 vs U-He DIVA PWM comparison

JP8 vs U-He DIVA PWM comparison by CoolColJ
"Another simple comparo between JP8 and Diva. JP8 first in each case

single PWM wave, no resonance, wide open filter, decay and release on the VCA envelope

I used all the correct modules on Diva with the clean filter. 24 bit 4.1khz for both, "Divine" quality setting and 8 note poly for Diva

As I mentioned before there is a very noticable difference btween the envelopes of my recapped/calibrated JP8 and Diva.
JP8 just snaps and pokes out more and faster. There is this soft feeling on the attack of Diva.

The PWM on the JP8 is very distinctive it's what gives it it's swirling ethereal sound. Diva is really different sounding here.
Also JP8 significantly brighter, again as I said before. And a rougher more raw edge to real VCOs. That's something I always found that software is lacking - a bit too glossy and smooth."
