Is there a link for the current “official” grainfields?
I have changed my system and updated so i am trying to integrate my Grid and my Arcs into my system and i would love some links for M4L for monome

Hi there,

Yes, you can find the most recent versions on my Github: https://github.com/kasperskov/

Not sure if its any use to anyone, but I knocked up a TouchOSC layout for Grainfields. Unfortunately the Duration and Loop Rate sections don’t function correctly, I’m not sure how to implement a range into TouchOSC.

Also the colour scheme is quite garish, blame the limitations of the editor.

First time installing Monome, trying to use Grainfields and grid isn’t being recognized. Using MacOS 10.13.1 and Max 7. Looking for some insight and suggestions.

#97

There are issues with 10.13.1 I think.
See this thread:

#98

I’m using a windows computer running windows 8.1 (64 bit) and max 7, when I try to use grainfields, max doesn’t connect to my grid

#99

I almost certainly won’t be able to solve your problem, but could you give us a little more context? like, do other apps (within Max or otherwise) work currently? did they once but no longer? do you “see” the grid in other places, like which USB devices are connected?

I unfortunately have never used any of this software before, and the main problem is that the grid doesn’t show up anywhere as far as i can tell on my computer

#101

there is a small amount of setup involved to get the grid recognizable for max devices. you need serialosc

Hi all. I’m using:

MacOS Sierra 10.12.6
Live 10.0.6
Grainfields M4L
2013 grid-128

When I re-open a saved session, I have to drag and drop each voice’s audio source onto each Grainfield voice in order to get things back to the way they should be. Thankfully, Grainfields remembers the other preset parameters for each voice (and I can save new presets with Shift-Click on the numbered squares at the bottom of the voice’s dialog), but it doesn’t seem like the audio source location is saved along with the other settings.

Incidentally, I’ve noticed this behavior with the standalone version of Grainfields as well.

Update: @kasperskov’s readme indicates that “Saving a preset (shift>click on a slot) will store all current parameter settings in each voice as well as the file path of buffer contents.” So… just a bug then?

Thanks!

Long time lurker of the forum, first time poster. Is there anyone who has modded this to work for 64 grids? I know this would make the scrubbing of the samples “less” interactive, but I would love to use this with my 64 grid. And my max-patching skills are quite limited.

Thanks!

Hi all,

Thanks for all the feedback. Finally, I had some time to update the Max for Live version of grainfields with a bunch of improvements:

  • New ui (all voices gathered in the grainfields_master-device).
  • Autofocus (the ability to work with other monome m4l devices in the same Live set).
  • Improved pattern recorder (more precise recorder and the ability to record longer patterns).
  • Global presets.

For non-varibright users: Refer to the “hacks” in this thread. :slight_smile:

Let me know what you think. If some of you have some interesting use cases to share, I would love to see them.

Best,
Kasper

I seem to be having trouble recording to the buffer in M4L. I can still get the previous version of grainfields to work just fine in M4L.

I’m pretty sure I’ve ruled out user error at this point. I set up the tracks in Ableton according to the instructions (and as I’ve done with the 1.0 version). The i/o for each voice is set up just as I have it in the previous version as well. Everything lights up, and all other functions work. When I press the record into buffer buttons (far right column), it lights up for the set recording duration, the light goes off after said duration, but nothing has appeared in the buffer.

Any advice?

Hi Travis,

Thanks for the heads up. I did a lot of optimization in the device, and suddenly I have the same issue here. I’ll fix it and put up an update asap.

#109

Awesome. Thank you, Kasper!

#110

No rush on this stuff, but did you happen to upload an update and I’m not seeing it? If not, all good! Just curious.

Just committed a fix for the audio input recorder. Should work now. You can grab the update on Github. :slight_smile:

Let me know if you experience any issues.
