I got about half way through an ecasound set up for controlling many of hermes' 52 parameters with midi controllers and noticed the "input gain" control. I was under the impression hermes could run as a stand alone synth. But, I guess the name it bears, "hermes filter", might suggest otherwise. I tried to catch Steve on irc today, but kept missing him. Does anyone know if the input is optional for hermes? If input is required, can I feed it an ecasound null input and still get sounds out of it? I'll use it however it's supposed to work. I just want to understand my options. Thanks, Eric Rz.
