can you expand a bit on how you’re managing that exactly? new to norns/mlr. also @tehn mlr is an incredible sampling engine with so many textural possibilities. such an incredible design thank you!

#451

Perhaps the bottom row on the clip page could be a clip length editor for the selected track… maybe symmetrical glyphs to trim the start / end points, two squares for coarse and one for fine, then a button in the center to create a real-time start/stop clip length like a looping pedal.

Kinda sounds like it might be a lot to pack at the bottom of that page but I could see those functions being useful.

Load a specific time length .wav file that you have upload as a clip. Then you’d have this time allocated to the buffer and you can record on top of it.

ahhh great idea thanks!

hi @tehn wondering if it’s possible to add a lfo to each clip to modulate panning/slew?

#455

I would love if there was a option for MLR that you could program the speeds in semitone or notes. Im often wishing i could bring in the 5th notes and giving up some octaves. Something like hitting alt and the speed button to bring up a menu on norn or some sort of scale system like ansible has.

+1 for semitone page

Yes! Had this on my mind for quite some time. I’d love to see a “speed settings” parameter where one can choose between “unquantized” (to keep the original function) and a selection of scales.

that’s an interesting idea— an alt page with a configurable scale perhaps? that way a whole bunch of loops could be played like a mellowtron sortof…

This would be really cool!

Okay let me get weird for a second… what if crow CV inputs could then shift MLR speeds as a group? Send a sequence into Crow and then boom, you’re “playing” MLR?

This is actually the idea for a super basic recorder / sampler thing I wanted to make but can’t because time/knowledge is lacking, where you’d basically record a loop MLR style, but then, plug in a keyboard, and you can play it like a synth except the sequence doesn’t reset on each note you play like they do in most sampler. So yeah that’d be great to have that inside MLR!

i Keep finding myself wanting tracks to trigger each other meadowphysics style. So as a track gets to the end of its row (or loop as another option) it triggers/resets another track from its start point (or end if playing in reverse). Just a thought

Finally figured MLR out, thanks to that informal video by @tehn earlier in this thread.
I just posted a video of my latest jam with it in the performance section if anybody wants to see it in action. ( https://youtu.be/TqMddjym9Es )
Main breakthrough for me was figuring out the quantise function and midi sync so I have it looping in time with the Elektron Model Sample.
Only sync’s one way though -right? Norns must be the Master.
Would be great if Norns could also sync to a Master Clock externally though.
One thing that doesn’t seem to work though is the ‘Quant Div’ control. No matter what I do there is no change to anything by adjusting this control. Is that a bug then?
Other than that MLR is absolutely brilliant. Thx.

I’m using the non varybright 64 version of mlr ( thanks! @noiserock) with a DIY shield.
I can’t do anything with the clip page…
I’m not able to load a wav file from the tape folder. Maybe I just don’t understand the function of this page…
Any help?

#464

You need to load using button 2(you can also change the function with enc2), and then find whatever sample you wanna use. Then select with btn3. Enjoy!

#465

So this will work :slight_smile:
I just did what you explain with maiden open:

Blockquotefile > /home/we/dust/audio/tape/0002.wav 2
lua:
/home/we/dust/code/custom64/mlr64.lua:818: attempt to call a nil value (global ‘sound_file_inspect’)
stack traceback:

thanks for the interest!

The script probably needs an update. I’ll see if I can make time later to fix this. Sorry about that(I am currently mainly using a 128).

No problem! But the real thanks should go to @tehn and @okyeron. I’m just the 64 janitor :wink:
