I noticed that too and am glad you linked to it

haven’t tried anything in that realm but might just plug the 128 in and see what happens

#33

It does require installing serialosc/libmonome on the organelle, and it doesn’t quite appear to be working just yet.

#34

Hi all. :slight_smile: Thanks @jasonw22 for cross posting. libmonome and serialosc seem to be installing just fine, but I’m still working on talking to the monome hardware.

When I run serialoscd I get:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Still digging for the solution…

If anyone has familiarity with setting up their monome on arch/arm7l (which is also the organelle’s OS), give a holler!

I saw that, thanks! I can get serialosc and libmonome installed just fine, but I have yet to connect to a monome with either option. Is there something special I need to do to “open” the serial port? Scratching my head a bit. The monome is showing up on /dev/ttyUSB0

tybg. if this becomes reality i’m gettin an organelle asap.

Well, I’ve got LED’s lighting up so… it’s close!!! I will publish a README when it’s ready.

The Organelle is such a sweet little thing! It’s so fun to use. I love that you can plug a monitor into it and edit your PD Patches as you play. Really lovely workflow. :thumbsup:

Really exciting stuff. My interest in the organelle was sparked by the thought of grid/arc interaction.

Another thing that just crossed my mind, is it possible to use the ableton link pd patch on the organelle. I suppose it doesn’t really matter unless the organelle con handle wifi, which I sorta assume it can’t but don’t have the specs memorized

#40

no wifi that I’m aware of @rdfm

#41

@rdfm @glia The Organell supports wifi just fine! I SSH into it to update my scripts from my main dev computer. In fact, I have it mounted as an SSH share at this very moment…

I am not utilizing my Organelle to it’s full potential…

I know what I’m doing this holiday weekend!

oh ok cool
I ran thru the specs in my head and didn’t recall wifi capability built-in

kinda unfortunate that there’s only one usb port…I feel like I need it for everything!
all good tho

#44

It’s got two USB ports actually! And you can just plug in a USB hub to add more ports. :thumbsup:

Also, wifi is not “built in” persay, you need to get your own adapter and make sure it’s compatible. The Organelle is running Arch linux and it’s not too tricky to get wifi up and running.

Edit: If you don’t have a usb wifi adapter yet, I’ve had great success with the RaspberryPi “Canakit” adapter.

[/quote]yeah I have one but there’s so much I haven’t tried yet

I was under the impression that patch storage is taking up one slot, no?
if the other one can be addressed with a hub that’s great news

did not realize that

Yup! They are just standard USB ports. The patch-storage is just a USB flash drive. You can plug it into any available USB port.

I’ve got direct serial messages to/from my grayscale128 on the organelle with comport. It’s looking very promising!

OK i have a few questions here:

  1. the organelle runs arch??
  2. I am seeing more and more reports of these weird segfaults in serialoscd. they make me very uncomfortable, because I’m not sure what’s causing them. this is not a question, in hindsight. my question is: does anybody know of a devboard that is close hardware-wise to the organelle (for testing purposes)?

@quilime you should be able to run serialosc-device directly.

./build/bin/serialosc-device /dev/ttyUSB0

Great! That works marvelous.
