wonder how straight forward is to change synth engine. I’d like to use thebangs…

Honestly this was my first choice but I couldn’t get it to work. No idea why and I mostly use it with external gear. I will look at it again. The fact I couldn’t get it working the first time bothers me so…

ah!
ok…i don’t use Ableton stuff.
i just use MIDI clock. :slight_smile:

understood.
ok…i was just a bit confused with it’s reaction to external sync.

my setup is with a Cirklon running into a MIO MIDI to USB to sync norns.

yeah!
if you could add the Arcologies type of MIDI sync as well as Start/Stop would be AWESOME!
:stuck_out_tongue:

I’ll put transport start/stop on the backlog. Should be an easy implementation. But I still don’t quite follow regarding sync being behind 1/16.

apaologies if i’m not being clear.
:slight_smile:
i was attempting to start and stop a single track by hand.
i stopped all four tracks.
made sure they were all set to their basic settings or “zeroed” out.
playing only forward.

then as the my other machines were playing…i attempted to start one of the tracks on a down beat several times.
it seemed to always be just a bit off but then would be somewhat consistently playing off of the 16th before the down beat of the next note.
like you mentioned…kind of a swing to it…always a 16th before the down beat.

Ok, i think i get it now. Will do some work on this, testing with external gear attached and make sure stuff stays “in sync”. Thanks for the heads up!

This is a fantastic app, so lovely! Options for panning the molly voices would be killer. I very briefly looked into it and it seems you would have to create a copy of the Molly engine because I didn’t see the pan param defined in the engine.

Modulating the pan per voice/sequencer according to its horizontal position might be interesting. Maybe where you can set the spread amount per sequence and each block represents a 1/4 change to that amount. May try and dig into that if I get curious enough…

Interesting, I might look into it. I also have plans on testing TheBangs as engine. We’ll see what and how will be the standard engine. If you want to try and alter the script yourself you’re very welcome to reach out if you need explantations for the code. I “action” coded it and some of it is backwards and maybe not very intuitively named / structured.

Thank you all for the incredible support I’ve received on this script. Just uploaded an update with some user requests and some ideas of my own. As always, keep posting suggestions and ideas!

UPDATE 210207

  • Crow in 2 randomize note matrix (set in params)
  • Note probability (set in params or on Grid)
  • More Grid stuff (see updated image in first post, time routings, momentary mutes and halts, note probability)
  • Better (to my ears) octave ranges, ‘x’ (only root note), 1 octave, 2 and 4.
  • Midi/Link transport (should work better now, thank you @infinitedigits for the code snippet)

Easter egg for @swhic, code for thebangs is in the script. You just need to comment out the molly-stuff and un-comment thebangs-stuff. I tried it but want to stick with Molly, at least for now.

EDIT: Forgot to include the new lib-folder in the commit. fixed now. So, if you updated today, please update again.

This is pretty great, no real idea what I’m doing but managed to record what sounds like a drunk outtake from the Night on the Galactic Railroad OST so I’m sold

randomly tricking out the parameters is beyond fun. this script invites exploration of a lot of musical territory in a really short time. absolutely amazing work :slight_smile:

Some very sublime ideas here. Quite intuitive to jump right in with. An emergent crossroads.

If updated my norns (shield) but still have the error. Any idea? I updated all scripts, is Initenere using some other scripts that have to be installed as well? Thanks in advance.

Do you have Molly The Poly installed? If not, install that, reboot and try again.

Yes, that was it. Thanks a lot!

(rather important) UPDATE

  • Added velocity for w/synth (no more clipping)
  • Rework of the note quantization to scales, octaves and offsets (this was actually broken, playing too many root notes. Update for improved note diversity).
  • Easter egg - uncomment code to change from Molly the Poly to the excellent Mx.Samples by @infinitedigits .

How do I do this? Can I do it in params? OR will I need to do some scripting (never done this!)

Yes, you need to do changes in the code in order to make this happen. If you decide to do it and the script “breaks” and/or you get lost - just uninstall it and install it again. There is also code in there for Engine: Thebangs which you unlock the same way. I might work on adding this as an option in params later. Want to focus on all core functionality first though.
