I always pick them up when I see them.

Using some crude code, getting norms to kick out midi data to shuttle control, which in turn is set to output 1v/oct out to VCO. First experiment, now need to look at using some of those spare 15 outs!

I love using Norns with Shuttle Control! I wrote Strides with 8 midi trigger outs and 8 cc outs, just so I could use all 16 outputs :smiley:

Ah! I didn’t know that! It’s in another thread isn’t it? Must check it out.

FYI ~ CV.OCD is a great companion for those not using euro but still want cv. I use a simple iConnectivity mio usb device from the norns to the CV.OCD. I’m a Serge user so I also use a low-gain UTL / BugBrand 1/8" -> banana cables for format jumbling. Best part about the CV.OCD is how highly configurable the MIDI settings are, it fits right in with norns ability to be completely customized for the user’s needs.

Mind doing a screen cap of your SC setup?

I don’t have my SC with me at the moment, but it’s a very simple setup.

SC outs 1-8 are set to Midi channel 1, Trigger Note Uni, and the notes C-2 to G-2.
SC outs 9-16 are set to Midi channel 1, CC smoothed (uni or bi), and CC #'s 1-8.

Then in Strides I just set midi notes and cc numbers accordingly :slight_smile: easy peasy

nb: Notes C-2 to G-2 for SC are midi notes 0 - 8 in strides and foulplay

Norns wifi friend :slight_smile:

edit: it’s a Panda Wireless PAU06 and it “just works” with norns. So much better reception/signal strength!

Awesome! Can you still use the other three usb ports or does it cover its neighbor port?

All other ports are clear!

Considering picking up a Roli seaboard block. Has anyone given it a go with Norns? I’m curious about mapping the expressioney bits out to parameters.

You may want to look into whether norns can handle the granularity of a MPE device.

@carvingcode, it’s really up to the scripts. I’ve used a seaboard block with norns via a @junklight script. I don’t have a link, but maybe @junklight will :sweat_smile:

I believe @junklight has had some success with one.

FWIW I have one and have found it to frequently wedge the norns midi stack it ways were it stops responding and requiring a reboot of both norns and power cycling the block. I’ve seen this behavior with a 1st gen lightpad block as well. I generally believe the Roli firmware isn’t as robust as it should be when dealing with USB hosts that are occasionally consuming MIDI data at a rate slower than the Roli gear wants to generate it. I don’t think the problem is strictly related to norns as I’ve had the exact same thing happen in the ansible firmware…
