Version 4! This new firmware update for crow brings a bunch of new libraries and features…
timeline
presents a new method for sequencing events in time. it builds on top of the clock
module for timing, and thoroughly incorporates sequins
for dynamic rhythms, events & data.
sequins
has been updated to version 2. There’s new sequins-strings for character patterns (think "+ ^ - ^"
), as well as transformers
for pattern synthesis which can be resampled on the fly.
There’s more features like hotswap
for live-coding, and math.srandom
for pseudo-randomness. Plus a big list of bug-fixes, and extended ii
support for Disting EX
.
See the updated reference for a full-list of syntax & usage.
Here’s a short improvisation from @dan_derks who shared their script on gist:
Updating
You can now update crow directly from norns using @tehn’s fledge script. Instructions in the docs. Highly recommended.
For those without a norns, you can still update using the druid
utility, as outlined in the docs here.
Max & M4L
There’s a lot of updates for crow in the Max realm too! Two new M4L devices (^^osc
and ^^jf_geode
) plus big stability improvements (especially when using the ^^jf_*
devices). @dan_derks has overhauled the whole API so patching for crow is much smoother.

Norns update
Finally, timeline
and sequins2
are coming to norns in the next release. Everything is already tested & merged, just waiting for the other parts of that release to come together!
