yes-- i have a ii cable bus board-- but still working out how to get them to people.

Astonishing.
Ordered and can’t wait this and the Arc.
It gave me also a few ideas for uses of Arc + Max as well…

Exactly. It might make me sell my beloved Frames.
The cycle mode offers a lot as well…

Pre-ordered ansible via Control Voltage.
Now I need to sell some stuff to buy an arc

will this work with arc 2?

Very cool looking shit indeed. The friction/brake is a nice touch too, and I’m sure ‘feels’ great to play.

Also cool to see how multipurpose it is as well.

I’ve not ordered one yet, but hopefully will do so later in the year. (OT but I’ve suddenly had to move house, which is always fun…)

wow. after watching the demo video again, and seeing the friction/cycles stuff…let alone the first half…i might not need my MI tides anymore. takes some more manual knob movement, but it seems ansible+arc is capable of generating some pretty random, or pseudorandom-nicely-synced LFOs and clocks. would need a mult or something to get a few of ansible’s outputs feeding into one or two inputs on e.g. Clouds, for some constant subtle movement.

I sprung for Ansible, but since I also sprung for second-hand Teletype and White Whale this week, I’m gonna have to let the bank account rest for a while. Hope the Arc supply lasts a little while…

Me too!

PDXers should have an unboxing party. :gift:

The first half of the intro video seemed to borrow very heavily from the Frames module. Frames with 4 big knobs. However the second halve with the friction and sync to 1 knob and looping capabilities made me smile a lot more. This is were it became a lot more original and inspiring - very clever :slight_smile:

There is obviously some love for Frames because Earthsea also had some Frames like functionality! I have Frames and i won’t be ditching it, but will definitely be persuing Ansible for its other functions.

Need moar modulation will def keep Frames and my desktop space is currently at a greater premium than my rack space :slight_smile:

[/quote]Yeah my first thought was control possibilities for aleph

it’d take a bit of tweaking sans led feedback but some ideas could carry over

Not sure of reasoning behind putting Kria and Meadowphysics in Ansible instead of a new apps

Kria (grid) - live step sequencer, polyphasic parameters, emergent patterns.
Meadowphysics (grid) - rhizomatic cascading counter.
Levels (arc) - rotational pattern instrument.
Cycles (arc) - physically manipulated waves.
Reach (teletype) - further ecosystem output and input.
Traffic (midi) - device voice allocation and various arpeggiation.

#52

Maybe just because it is possible and for a smaller system to switch between different apps when you would not use more of them at the same time anyway.

I wonder if kria will be clockable in this incarnation.

they both have many new features, and kria was always an alt-firmware that i expect wasn’t widely used.

also, because they are good.

yes

arc is usable without ansible, right? – I think that was a yes, but I’m not sure how the interaction works.
Was this posted before and I missed it? :sweat_smile:

#55

In that case, you’ve got max/msp patchers and other software interaction.

(FWIW, though I ordered an ansible I’m also keenly looking forward to updates on the max front!)

Oh, and WW firmware Orca too right @scanner_darkly?

#56

Can White Whale and Meadowphysics modules be updated with the new features / firmwares that Ansible Kria/MP uses?

there are five years’ worth of arc apps, long before there were modules:

i remember when tml and edw first came out, seeing and hearing the beautiful things made with them. excited that i finally get to try them!
