Wow, this looks really nice! I dig the semi-madrona labs look. Very nice and seems like a very helpful bit of information given!

that’s great! thank you!

TPV2 does look so nice!

I’m just about to put out a couple of TPV/TPV2 modules as M4L devices. (Eventually it will be all of them as I refactor/update them).

The name I’ve been planning on using for years is Party Favors, but @Angela just suggested Confetti, which I quite like as well.

Any strong feelings one way or another.

Confetti gets my vote.
Can you make a poll on here though?

Party Favors or sprinkles gets my vote

“Angela’s Confetti”…but it’s shortened to just “confetti” for colloquial use :wink:

Hey Rod, How do I use the zxcv keys for psuedo arc button presses in TPV1.2? I see that they’re mentioned in the instructions, but don’t seem to work with just a key press. Perhaps I need to set something else up in Max? I’m using Max 6. Thanks for the help!

I had to look it up since I’ve not really ever used the feature, but here’s the relevant bit of the code:

So from the looks of it, it’s literally the “key” press from the arc.

In TPV1 this does different things in different places. On page1, for example, it scrolls through different options for each of the knobs, etc…

So I guess for some reason my key presses aren’t changing the hi-rez arc functions. I thought maybe I needed to have Max be “listening” for keyboard input. I’ll keep looking. Thanks so much!

It should just ‘happen’, although Max needs to be the front-most window. (i.e. you can’t have a browser open and have that ‘on top’ of TPV).

When you press those keys, do you see the leds on the arc change?

Will any of these, including the version of Tpv2 you released work with an older 256 walnut grid model by chance?!

It will only show an 8x8 on the 256 (although it will work).

TPV2 is made for 128s only, since that appears to be the ‘standard’ monome size nowadays.

Because of how things were mapped/conceived, scaling up is kind of weird. Ages ago I started trying to make a 128 version of TPV, so you would basically see two pages at once. I never finished it, but that was my solution to that problem.

Newbie here. TPV looks amazing. Do I get it right that there are no clocking options (max version) ?? The manual says “no quantization”.

And next, is this still true for the m4l pack ?

Maybe I am missing something…
