Thanks for clarifying and providing the tables for what SuperCollider is capable of analyzing, this is truly fascinating to me since I’m completely new to coding and thus have no real grasp of what may or may not be possible.

With all of these analysis tools at ones disposal, any input could quite possibly be turned into a full-fledged instrument in itself not to mention the way this could open up possibilities for overcoming certain instruments inborn limitations like the relative (at least compared to a bowed instrument like your double bass) lack of sustain of a classical guitar which is my main instrument in the acoustic arena.

I’m not ruling out that I will dive into SuperCollider using a regular laptop sooner or later but for now I 'm thinking that Norns might be more accessible since I’ll be able to code with Lua which I think I will be able to wrap my head around with some studying even though I have never attempted anything like this before. Reading through the studies, the language appears quite logical.

I do not yet own Norns but this is tipping me closer and closer to pulling the trigger soon enough as a early Xmas present :slight_smile:

Norns and Grid are almost with me…now just the unfortunate, but inevitable kick in the stomach that is import duty. I’m guessing I’ll be getting a letter from Parcelfarce about how much I have to cough-up soon. Quite a journey they’ve been on:

I recently had something shipped from EU to the US and it was listed as being hung up in customs for weeks, even though it had showed up to my door with no postage or anything after just a few days…perhaps a reflection of the world we live in, you know, sending around curious looking devices and whatnot. good luck!

I haven’t really heard anything about ships and planes getting lost in the “Bermuda Triangle” for quite some time, but customs might as well be. Tracking info for overseas packages seems to bear no actual resemblance to reality. Sometimes packages get returned to sender 4 weeks after they were sent. Other times they arrive at their destination almost too quickly to explain.

Really been looking forward to TT ports!

Any issues with fitment after yours was done printing? I just had one printed at my local library yesterday and noticed that the spot for the WiFi nub is a little out of place. I may have to have another one made. Even when I take the WiFi adapter off I almost have to force my Norns to fit inside it.

Nope mine fits great.

meadowphysics port. still working on glpyhs/saving, but everything else is working.

Ekombi now works gridless

I’ve finally got time for norns again.
New scripts in a week or two.

I checked this out today and for the life of me I could not get any audio out. I think I must be missing something really really obvious, but couldn’t work it out. I saw samples loaded up in there but no audio even after checking all the vol settings. I tried the Strides app after that and got audio from samples with no issues.

ugh. yup thanks for pointing this out. looks like I made some sort of mistake in pushing my last revision of the meadowphysics.lua library file to github. hopefully I can resolve this later today.

Here’s a preview/tutorial for Zellen (German for “cells”), a Game of Life based sequencer that I’ve been working on. It’s almost ready for a dust pull request - just need to do some code clean up.

It can be used with a midi device or with the PolyPerc engine on its own. Currently it doesn’t sync via midi, but it’s at the top of my todo list.

If someone wants to try it, it currently lives on my Github: https://github.com/sarweiler/zellen
There’s also a readme that explains the most important settings.

Wow @sbaio this is incredible! Can’t wait to try it out.

I had it on my list to port my old Game Of Life Sequencer from processing (written ages ago) to norns, so glad someone else put one together! This is rad.

Wonderful work. Looking forward to trying it out.

Finally getting around to giving this a go!

Excuse my n00b ignorance, but this is my first time trying to add a new script to norns (that isn’t a part of the updates anyway) other than doing a couple of studies. What is the right way to do it?

There doesn’t seem to be a way to download a file or anything, so I tried to copy and paste the code into new scripts on my norns via maiden, which didn’t work. I also downloaded GitHub Desktop and tried to clone the repository based on the URL which didn’t allow me access.

Enough floundering in the dark I thought I’d ask here for some help!

Really want to run kria with my ESQ-1.
