good tip will do for sure! no I meant like a being able to adjust/sequence the crypt pitch. The more I wrap my brain around archoloigies the more see how vast this can be. its one of those instruments like modular where I catch myself mind mapping patches on my drive to work, in the grocery line, and so on. Im on vacation and plan on spending some serious time in the new environment you have made

oh oh oh yessss… i am starting to gather ideas for a new sampler structure. if you have any feature requests please share. pitch is already on there but doing a topiary thing with pitch is really interesting…

yusssss. crypt and vale also of course. Im all about random goodness. I still have much to explore already but for sure!

these are back burner ideas… but I’ve been contemplating some kind of tunnel like device with either a random a,b,c,d, probability or a tunnel that acts as a burst or ratchet. Tunnels btw are so friggin cool.

yeah In this sense ratchet might not be the best description or even possible for that matter. A solarium/tunnel combo or solarium/Dome may fit better.

new pack up: dt1

dt1.arcology (105.7 KB)
dt1.pset (925 Bytes)

just noticed crypts picks up directory index and not name, so as you add more your crypts shift under you. i’ll update that to match on strings.

regarding sampler stuff…
a vote for random or constant dynamics!
:stuck_out_tongue:
also maybe forward and reverse if possible with constant or random possibilities.
oh…another one…like the Topiary…could it switch through the 6 samples?

i know my love for music for airports is not unique, but my experience of the album perhaps is. i had just started college. taking the commuter rail in and out of the city from the burbs… frigid midwestern mornings in cornfields waiting for the train. a second or third gen ipod. chicago, misty and shimmering in the distance. it is a spiritual album for me. i just found this article the other day. so.

this is, of course, only a rough approximation. a palimpsest cover, powered by a windfarm, and overrun with kudzu. requires arcologies v1.1.9 and the newly uploaded airport crypt:

Has anyone had success getting arcologies to load up these presets without a grid connected? I’m eagerly awaiting grids to become available again soon, but I’d love to hear some of these maps that others are creating while I wait…

#38

hey! these should load ok without a grid connected. though i haven’t tested that. if it doesnt work it should be a small change on my end to make it work.

#39

Is there a structure that influences the index of the crypts? I could also see it being useful if you could expose the index value as a mappable parameter to be able to adjust the sample on the fly as the crypt is getting hit by signals.
So many possibilities here. Thanks for sharing the passion project with the community @tyleretters

not yet! there is a new structure in the r&d lab that exposes controls like this via ports - north and south port change pitch, east port increments index, west port triggers…

you just gave me a really exciting idea for where i’m headed with arc support, however. :slight_smile: arc is going to be mappable to a lot of stuff.

thanks for the ideas and thanks for giving arcologies a shot!

two new sample packs are up from the illustrious @SPIKE - noiz-01 and noiz-02!

hey tyler

can you give some tips about how to make a pull request? i know this has been beaten to death elsewhere in the forum but you might get more activity if a step by step guide is included here (or on the crypts gh landing page)

so far i’m assuming:

  1. make a sample pack according to the guidelines
  2. fork crypts to make a new branch
  3. upload my pack
  4. submit pr to merge mine with yours?

is this correct???

edit: are stereo samples mandatory? i use ableton and can’t figure out how to make mono samples?

thanks @LLK reminded me of that feature on export settings :smiley:

also i would like to practice with the github workflow cause i can make sample packs almost every day

you will tire of uploading for me lol

Are there any guidelines on pitched samples so that they can be transposed correctly when used in Arcologies? Could, for example, 1.wav be in C4 and it would automatically be transposed according to parameter changes made for the arcology?
