Pushed an update to github for the UGens - looks like there was an error in the Rings class file causing norns buttons to go unresponsive.

So - if you want to fix that,

cd ~/.local/share/SuperCollider/Extensions
rm -r Mi*

then re-run the install script

Aw crap - rings is broken. Other stuff behaving badly.

Might wanna hold off on this for the moment while I get it sorted out

everytime you receive these messages, open:
System Preference -> Security & Privacy -> General.
you will find the “MiMu.scx” as shown in the screenshot. then unlock the panel and press “allow”.

I tried intalling them yesterday, but I get “Error loading” message for everything but Rings. Rings loads fine but audio seems indeed broken.
The lua install script is a nice idea :slight_smile:

probably need to restart (SLEEP, power off, power on)?

(or ;restart in both the matron and SC tabs in maiden)

Ok my bad, I had renamed the “mi-eng” folder to mi_eng, everything opens correctly now, I’ll look into it this afternoon and report back :slight_smile:

Updates

I updated the top post with a new archive of the compiled ugens and a revised version of the install script I posted up-thread.

Please download the new versions as it fixes some serious bugs with rings.

Hi can this be used with stock Norns ok?

Should be fine.

Just remember this is still experimental and very much works In progress.

Installed. All good. Reaaally enjoy clouds. I installed via winscp :)) it was a breeze. Sleep and rebooted. I`m on last norns fw on fates :slight_smile:

Installed on norns shield. Rings works great, but clouds, elements, and plaits all give an error: load fail. Used the lua script to install the ugens. Using latest norns release. Any ideas?

@ pcnclghtnng You need to Restart norns after installing the ugens, also check that the script directory in dust/code is named “mi-eng” and not something else (by default github names it "mi-eng-master, that won’t do it).

@sns I did restart, but the github zip download naming convention was the key. After removing “-master” from the folder name they all work, thanks!

Really want to try this, but lost with the install:
I ran the (updated) lua script and I had an ‘install complete’ on the norns script, but nothing else, no error message but no mi-ugens folder too.
I surely miss something…

the ugens install at /home/we/.local/share/SuperCollider/Extensions

Be sure you’re using the install script from the Top Post

Remember to reboot

also note - the actual scripts are a separate install

Thank you very much for the MI Engines. Great work! Rings, Clouds and Plaits run smoothly on the Norns Shield, only Elements doesn’t react to Midi notes (or Norns Buttons). Any ideas what could be the reason for this?

I’ll take a look at it later tonight. Might be something in-progress or just forgotten. :slight_smile:

Fantastic work! Playing with clouds, out of my rack and without a way to trigger it except internally with the density control, I am realizing that a clouds/torii combo would be amazing! On top of that, it is making me see that clouds + a trigger sequencer could make a super cool trance gate in my modular system! Fun times!

I must be an idiot. Do you run the installer script from within maiden/matron?

you can run it from inside Norns itself after putting it into your code folder
