Thank you for putting your ideas in this “playable canvas”!

Hello with a noob question again. But just for a peace of mind. Do I understand it correctly that it is not possible to record patterns with Touch OSC? Do I need grid for that?

P.S. Love this script. Dreams are coming true. Thanks everyone.

correct – pattern playback ends up introducing too many packets, which slows down the TouchOSC UI feedback a ton. cheat codes 2 will have full MIDI control, though, with pattern recording :slight_smile:

thanks so much for the kind words, hope you keep exploring!! :sparkles:

Thank you! Full MIDI control sounds great! :pray: :pray: :pray: will have to justify buying Grid next time :slight_smile:

Just a little practice with CC but a ton of fun!
I’ve recorded a Banjo and a Tibetan bowl in the first two buffers and then I’ve play around with them.
The chance to record every gesture is really appreciable🙂

Hello lovely people, (cc: @dan_derks). I have another problem. I thought this was perhaps connected with getting the TouchOSC to work. Alas not!

I’m not getting any output via Cheat Codes. I have output on tape and compass and other scripts. Also in the alt menu (K1 long press on loops) I have set prerecorded clips in all 3 banks and set L1, L2 and L3 to recording. When I set the clips I can hear a sample of them but they don’t play back in order for me to manipulate them.

Does anyone have any other ideas I can try? I already deleted and reinstalled CC on Maiden to see if that would help. Thanks a lot.

hi sophie!

just to confirm, to set up clips for all pads in a bank on cheat codes 1.3.1:

  • visit PARMS > loops + buffers and load a sample into clip 1 sample
  • on the loops page, hold K1 and turn E1 till you get to the 16th pad
    • since pads can have unique clips, you’re likely just setting the first pad’s audio
    • pad 16 sets the value for all the pads in the bank, so by changing the buffer to Clip: 1 on pad 16, you’re setting it for all pads in bank A
  • this’ll be the same if you want the pads to use one of the Live buffers – just set pad 16 to the desired buffer :slight_smile:

hopefully that solve things, but lmk! fwiw, this is all way easier in the upcoming cheat codes 2 (out next week)

Hi Dan,

Thanks for getting back so quickly!

I had read your response to someone else with this issue and tried this. No avail!

I have loaded a clip: Parameters > Edit > loops + buffers > clip 1

Changed to 16th pad and allocated clip 1. We now get the message (pad 16 overwrites bank!)

Set all Ls recording.

Still no output.

Any other ideas…?

I knew Cheat Codes 2 was on the way but didn’t realise it was so close! I was going to spend some big time with the manual over the coming days but seeing as number 2 is out soon I think I’ll wait for that one.

Cheers for being great.

hmm. when you play the pads on the TouchOSC interface, are they actually changing the pad displayed on the loops page?

cheers to you for being great!!

#311

No idea what happened but it’s working now! Put norns to sleep whilst I ate, came back and we’re all systems go. Got some really interesting patterns flying in minutes! Really looking forward to what Cheat Codes 2 brings. Thanks again :pray:

Hello everyone,

I’ve been playing with Cheat Codes pretty much non-stop for days, it’s so addictive!

I’m currently controlling CC with TouchOSC on my android phone as I can’t afford a grid right now. I do however have Ableton and a launchpad and Push 1, and it got me thinking about the possibilities of mapping the pads on my launchpad to control TouchOSC on my phone which in turn controls CC on norns. No idea if this would be possible but thought I’d give it a go.

So! I downloaded Touch OSC Bridge onto my mac and followed these instructions. https://hexler.net/docs/touchosc-getting-started-midi?android

I can see that Ableton is receiving midi messages from the ‘simple’ template in TouchOSC along with all other standard templates. The little button top right is lighting up a dream. Meanwhile I can also see that norns is still a host on TouchOSC. Here’s where I get excited… but when I flip to the CC template Ableton does not receive any information. The little light does not light up like it does with all the other templates.

Does anyone know why that might be? Is this worth pursuing? (I’m new to all this if that wasn’t completely obvious, but determined to learn!)

thank you for the kind words and energy!!
on my phone right now, so a short response, but i’d say wait for cheat codes 2 — full midi control, so you can just plug your launchpad in :slight_smile:

also, when i can get some breathing room, will investigate making a m4l device to address cheat codes thru Live wirelessly — so, hopefully bypassing the touchosc altogether, if folks have sequencers in Live that they want to use

Can’t wait for the release!
I’ve been messing around with the beta for a few days and it is sooo much fun :slight_smile:
Love the random modes and delay page.

Thank you @dan_derks for this amazing canvas!

I’m so happy right now. Thank you!

This would be amazing. It’s safe to say I’m hooked. Love the possibilities right now and room for growth.

Reading a tonne of great things about beta for cheat codes 2. I’ll sit tight in anticipate of the release.

Thanks a lot!

Hainbach and Bram Bos just released an iPad app that is basically Cheat Codes. Honestly I find too many similarities, but no one knew in the live chat about CC, even Hainbach himself.

What do you guys think?

#317

It does seem to share a few things, but imo that appraisal dramatically undersells Cheat Codes. You could do something very similar to Gauss in Cheat Codes, but there’s a ton that you can do in Cheat Codes that it isn’t immediately obvious whether you could do with Gauss. It does look fun and convenient though!

Yeah the app looks cool on it’s own and doesn’t seem all that similar to CC in my opinion.
