Abacus

kriskeyser · 2020-11-09T17:47:07.307Z

Given that there’s 26 alphabetically named slots, are there plans to integrate keyboard control of sample playback?

PerVildman · 2020-11-09T18:20:08.500Z

Ohhh. Maybe that’s the thing. I’ll update then

Mad86 · 2020-11-09T18:27:31.858Z

@PerVildman I was had the same problem. New version of the firmware have to solve it

PerVildman · 2020-11-09T20:43:38.061Z

Now the script loads, but I can’t load a sample! I’m getting this in maiden:

This looks amazing but when I go in parameters and choose “save/load” it just hangs the whole parameters section. In Matron I see an endless stream of this sort of thing:

I’m using a DIY norns shield and the latest update

@Cementimental @PerVildman i believe this error occurs when there are no files available to load so it has trouble being displayed. however, when you start abacus for the first time it automatically copies one file to a directory (~/dust/data/abacus) that can be loaded, so that should be able to prevent the error (i thought anyways).

if you can, try deleting and reinstalling this way:

rm -rf /home/we/dust/data/abacus && rm -rf /home/we/dust/code/abacus
git clone https://github.com/schollz/abacus /home/we/dust/code/abacus

and then run.

later today/thisweek i will fix my lazy initialization with something that is more robust. sorry about that!

@cosmicsoundexplorer @mattymattmatt i feel more confident about the crow support with that explanation! one clarification: which of the following two scenarios do you envision for crow?

input 1 sets position along entire sample. input 2 gates (gate on = starts playing at position and continue playing until end of entire sample)
input 1 sets id of spliced sample (e.g. of the currently spliced ones, labeled A-Z). input 2 gate turns on/off playback of that sample (gate on = continous looping of current sample).

Ukasz · 2020-11-09T22:27:50.168Z

Hell yeeeeah! Looks promising!

cosmicsoundexplorer · 2020-11-10T00:16:30.476Z

Both options have their benefits.

An option for entire sample OR splice id would be amazing.
Kinda like a free run or lock to splice but this would mean only one gate option so Im thinking gate on = starts playing at position and continue playing until end of entire sample.

If only one is possible then I may lean more towards splice id and loop.

@mattymattmatt What did you have in mind?

infinitedigits · 2020-11-10T00:51:20.167Z

i can easily do both options

infinitedigits · 2020-11-10T03:16:00.088Z

@cosmicsoundexplorer @mattymattmatt added crow support!

the parameters for modding it are in global parameters. lmk if it doesn’t make sense, or especially if it doesn’t work. i tested it out by running the functions through maiden because i don’t have crow, but i think it should work!

Ukasz · 2020-11-10T14:57:40.864Z

I think it would be freakin awesome to have all the ABCDEF… samples on the grid : O

mattymattmatt · 2020-11-10T16:46:43.577Z

I think it would be unfair for me to submit an opinion yet- I haven’t had time to try this app out. But I will soon, and will certainly let you know my thoughts!

leescan · 2021-02-10T10:50:59.264Z

hi , like the look of this what is the process for loading samples? I tried dropping a wav in to the Sound folder within the Abacus code folder, but doesn’t seem to be showing up?

SPIKE · 2021-02-11T08:12:39.408Z

@infinitedigits
well…rough start on this one for the first go at it.
Abacus opened with a blank slate.
norns crashed/froze the moment i tried to go to the SAVE/LOAD menu in Parameters.

luckily i had WiFi on!
when i opened maiden it was spewing all this over and over:

i just grabbed a section so i don’t know if this helps!
also…
sent a ;RESTART from maiden and when norns started back up Abacus launched and it has the Amen Break sample loaded.

seems to be happy now.
tried loading other noiz and it’s a werkin’!

just in case…
this is what maiden displayed after it started back up and was working:

oop…ran into another one.
i was in the chain mode and had accidentally deleted the first pattern.
the display looked like it was stuck as if i was holding down K1.
audio was playing and it did respond to a K1+K3 stop.
it also let me exit to Parameters.
but it would not let go of the K1 hold.

here’s a pic:

leescan:

what is the process for loading samples?

you should put in samples into the audio/tape folder and then you can scroll through them in the save/load -> choose sample folder from parameters using E3. when you want to load one you goto load sample and press K3.

SPIKE:

norns crashed/froze the moment i tried to go to the SAVE/LOAD menu in Parameters.

oh weird! i’m not sure what happened there, and i can’t reproduce that.

SPIKE:

but it would not let go of the K1 hold.

i experienced this recently. its a and i’m trying to find the solution for it!

Finally having a go with this, seems great but I’m experiencing a bug whereby in chain mode if I accidentally go to a blank pattern it crashes in such a way that all that responds is K1 to go to the Norns menus still works, and k1&k3 stop and start playback but all it wants to play is the entire un-chopped tape…?

Brillant once again , i really liked your drums in the end of the demo. Very radiohead

Excellent script love to use it with ethereal/unsynced stuff to create some more synced stuffed!
A nice addition would some kind of tempo auto-detection based on duration Vs number of bar, plus auto slicing option to create an even distribution of X chops, in order to make it more manageable with beats or tempo driven stuffs stuffs
Like loading a tape of 128 looping bar of modular jam for instant rearrangement…
Just an idea…

Pressing the save/load button floods Matron with bad argument #1 from screen_text_extents.

I see that entire stack traceback is from core…

i don’t do any modular and crow itself is still mysterious to me.

my hero. was very surprised at this statement - interesting to see someone so involved (ie. creator of a bunch of very nice norns scripts, great instagram content.) in creative musical pursuits and yet so matter-of-factly not into modular. i should do the same. i won’t. but it would be a good idea.
