really enjoying this script @Olivier, thanks! long time norns user but only try this recently… big mistake :slight_smile:
one question though, does the presets work? I’m trying to save but when I load it nothing is saved…

Hey! Glad you’re enjoying the script. To your question, the pset file should save whatever you’ve set in the params menu (including things like midi mappings), but it won’t save command sequences – that hasn’t (yet) been developed. I may have misunderstood your question, though – let me know if I have.

you are correct @Olivier, I was referring to the command sequences, the params menu are saving ok. I did not explain myself is the best way 'cause I’m really excited to have found this script :smile: any future date about saving the command sequences down the road?

Not at the moment, but it’s on the to-do list. I’m short on skills in this area (PRs always welcome), but would be glad to explore.

Just a quick shout out to @Olivier! This script is ace! Love the way it works and how it can leads easily to new territory… Je suis fan! To second @sno, it would be nice to be able to save the commands… But definitely I would love to be able to save selections made on the command list… Just my two cents! Merci encore pour ce script fantastique!

De rien! Ça me rend heureux :slight_smile:

I’m cooking up some plans to refactor Compass, and I’d love to prioritize a broader re-thinking of the whole command sequence structure as part of that process. In addition to saving command sequences, I’d also like to add the ability to create multiple sequences within a single session and hop between them on the fly. Got a little prototype working, but there’s still a lot to do and think through!

hey @Olivier love this script to bits. wondering if you’ve ever considered adding a feature to completely pause the buffer without completely clearing it? could be a nice way of altering the sequence while something else is happening outside of compass.

Thanks for the nice words @claasp! And that’s a really good idea…are you imagining that this feature would simultaneously stop (or fade) playback and the clock driving the command sequence?

you’re welcome you’ve done some amazing work!
yes i was thinking to essentially pause everything.
i use compass on an aux send/return and usually grab from whatever is going through my mixer - modular, contact mics or a separate script from another norns/fates. i posted an example of this process in the CC2 thread if you’re curious…rather than fading out the aux send and clearing the buffer or keep recording into it, it would be nice to be able to pause it and tweak the sequence without it continuing to run. though basic i think it could be quite performative. also abrupt stops can be affective when there are two somewhat mirroring bits of information happening.

Love it – thanks for the write-up. I’ll add this to the backlog, and hopefully I’ll find some energy over the holidays to chip away at this larger re-write :slight_smile:
