managed to delete the tape files using Putty to emulate linux commands. confirmed they were deleted by loading up a sampling script and navigating to the folder in norns, and they were in fact removed successfully.

disk still showing up 0MB free and wifi not working. :woozy_face:

ooh interesting! these are the top files

-rw-r----- 1 root adm 783M Feb 12 06:25 daemon.log.1
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 783M Feb 12 06:25 syslog.1
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 207M Feb 12 22:42 syslog
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 207M Feb 12 22:42 daemon.log

-rw-r----- 1 root adm 707K Feb 12 06:25 messages.1
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 432K Oct 2 06:25 syslog.7.gz

EDIT: navigated up to your original comment you quoted and did Brian’s suggested temporary fix to remove the top 2 files. disk space is back, and wifi is working!

begs the question though as to how this happened, if it could happen again, what to do from here :thinking:

but thank you so much @okyeron and @tehn for what appears to be a temporary fix!

i’ve already run into trouble on the first study - i also ran the included study code (study 1 in the study folder) and ran into the same issue.

for the part of the tutorial where i’m supposed to be seeing key names and states, keys 1 + 2 don’t do anything, key 3 returns an error. is there a certain screen i’m supposed to be on when i do this? i wasn’t getting encoder info in the message box either.

error starts with " attempt to index a nil value (field ‘?’) "

here’s everything i get when i run the first study. i only have up until the intro of the key function. the error text happens when i press k3:

norns.script.load("many_tomorrows.lua")
# script load
# cleanup
# script clear
# script run
loading engine: TestSine

Engine.register_commands; count: 2

the end and the beginning they are the same.

I ran into this issue and got the answer over on the studies thread:

There are a couple of things over there that may save you some grief until 2.0 comes out.

I’ve done a bit of diving on the subject but couldn’t really find anything concrete. I also went through the physical study, somewhat grasp the markeats passersby example. Any rate, I still can’t get an external sync to work. I’ve had success with CC and MIDI learn, but no clock sync. I’m specifically trying to sync playfair and/or foulplay.

I’ve tried numerous scripts that utilize external sync with Ableton (MIDI and USB) and an OP-1. Has anyone else had any luck with this? Am I missing something obvious? :woozy_face:

#978

There are some improvements in midi - specifically clock - that I worked on that are not in the current (181101) release.

So this is greatly improved in the next release, but that doesn’t help you much right now.

If you were feeling adventurous you could get the more recent midi.lua, replace that, stop/start norns and then update the scripts with the new midi fu.

I have an example test script which should work with external sync. You’d need to work from here to update playfair or foulplay.

Some things to check:

  • Is the device you’re trying to sync with configured to send clock? Are you connecting that device directly to norns? Are you able to sync things other than norns to that clock source?
  • Can you receive midi note data from the clock source to norns? Try one of the scripts that responds to midi notes.

The more specifically you describe your situation the easier it is for folks to jump in with suggestions.

Thanks for the reply.

External devices (Ableton and OP-1) are set to send clock and they work with other devices. I’m also able to send note data and CC to Norns. The issue I’m having, specifically with playfair and foulplay is when I set the clock to external, norns is unresponsive. I’m able to clock things with norns just fine but for certain projects I prefer to have one master clock coming from my DAW.

#981

This is perfect, thanks for the test script. I can always sync from norns for the time being but I’m happy to hear about midi improving.

#982

What software version is your norns running?

#983

Running the latest version 181101. Actually just re-uploaded the install thinking that might fix it but no luck.

#984

i might suggest manually running the installer. unpack it in update/ and manually execute update.sh via screen or ssh (can provide further details if needed)

#985

I’m not able to create new folders in Maiden, only new scripts. When I try to save a new folder nothing happens. Is that normal behavior?

#986

I actually just did the manual update last night because my norns wasn’t functioning (disregard the email I sent to info@monome, all good now). Not sure if this is the same process or not but I’m still not getting any external sync after the update.

#987

I had this issue a while ago, and - as far as I an remember - it seemed to be a Firefox problem (running on High Sierra). I was able to create folders in Safari.

#989

Thanks. Yes, it works in Safari. I cannot create folders in Chrome or Firefox. I’m running High Sierra.

#990

I just received a 2nd hand norns (as a spare). Screen is very dim. I can barely read anything.

Is there something I can do or should I return? Thanks.
