Dope. I probably won’t get to it till the weekend, so I am curious to hear everyone’s impressions! I read the guide, and the new interactions are quite different, but they seem like they should lead to a more consistent exprience.

coooool. Thnx for the pic

This looks like a dream come true! Just putting a custom quantizer at the end of the chain makes it so much more playable. No more transposition guess work or constantly resetting the note values. Sequencing arp variations, transposing these variations on the fly, adding in random note values… I’m super glad I got two 4u’s for the easel!

anyone looking for a tsnm faceplate in 3u?

Sad about the quarter note removal…i pretty much have mine set to that for most patches…is there some new implementation that gets one into microtonal territory?

Doboz offers a 4u version.

Having seen this update I’m considering getting a couple of 4u built for my Easel.

Nooooo!

I wish that would stay. I use it all the time.

Anyone know where firmware v3.1 can be found?

Anyone know if the TSNM is able to send un-quantised CV much like pressure points?

it does not…I remember them telling me the dac resolution was too high and would require alot of knob turning.

Yeah this is a deal breaker for me. Very confusing removal.

umm… thanks.

just a thought if i sent the CV out to an attenuator would that perhaps make the resolution higher with in a smaller range? or would the CV out values just become a smaller range within the quantised CV values?

Thinking about replacing my 218r with a couple of these for my Easel. Are they chainable?

Not, currently.

The second one. You’d just be scaling down the note values to the range you define with the attentuator. The relationship between steps would remain as they were set on the device. The device is intended to play notes. You’ll want to stick to something like the MengQi Voltage Memory or Pressure Points if you want arbitrary voltages. Alternatively, you could write your own firmware for TSNM, the source code is available, but that would be a lot of work for what I imagine you are trying to do.

news about public-stable release of new firmware?

I got it from this page, but it didn’t really work out well for me. As it says in the instructions, you loose the DAC calibration, but then for me the calibration procedure doesn’t work on v3.1. In the end I went back to v3.0. It’s a shame because the manual makes it seem like quite a nice update. Maybe others have had better luck?

How did he do this? The 4u panel uses +/- 15v and the 3u +/-12 and 4u Serge is at +/-12. I’m looking at buying a 4u used and not building from scratch. Want to use an existing 12v power supply.

Schematics for both are available. For the 12V version there are only a few different values for resistors a quick scan seems to reveal.
