Sidekick supports a message to deactivate the patch , this could be used by norns mother to ‘gohome’ in same way as organelle

“Gohome” on Nornsmother is functional, but if the patch does not has this function the only way to exit to SK menu is the 3 button method.

Pd: there is an OSC method to open SK menu, but needs an external connection.

So I tried unsuccessfully to establish a MIDI connection between my Korg Minilogue and Puredata.
I tried this method:

aconnect 20:1 129:1
aconnect 129:0 20:1

But no worked. I try to connect the minilogue over usb, problem is, minilogue has two midi devices in one client. the first one is the physical in and out ports of the machine, the second is for midi over usb.

On blokas.io’s forum i find a workaround which should use an udev rule specifying the vendor and product id but on Fates I can’t find an udev folder so I don’t know how to apply it.
This is the rule: (i used lsusb for find this details)

ACTION==“add”, SUBSYSTEM==“usb”, ATTR{idVendor}==“0944”, ATTR{idProduct}==“012c”, RUN+="/usr/bin/aconnect minilogue:1"
ACTION==“add”, SUBSYSTEM==“usb”, ATTR{idVendor}==“0944”, ATTR{idProduct}==“012c”, RUN+="/usr/bin/aconnect minilogue:1"

at this point i was wondering how to handle these exceptions on fates and if it were possible to specify them somehow on the post-patch.sh file.

Could someone help me out? It seems really impossible to connect the Minilogue to Puredata and I don’t understand where I’m wrong.

this is my midi config

Thanks

I managed to connect simply by exchanging the parameters.

aconnect 20:1 129:0
aconnect 129:1 20:1

Here instead a video of the KOTO application for Norns Mothers sequenced by Malekko Voltage Block + Ornament & Crime Captain Midi.

thank you all

Thanks. You can install it safely. @Oxbown and @TheTechnobear id an incredible job with ORAC / SK / NM.

There will be thousands of new combinations and we hope that the patchstorage community will always remain so active

KOTO is truly incredible. You can listen to another recording here as a couple with a morphagene.

I hope you will let us know your impressions

Yeah, this sounds fantastic. I installed ORAC on my FATES, but eventually sort of faded off of it and back to norns. I couldn’t really figure out the method of adding patches to ORAC. Norns Mother looks nice, because that way I can just add a script and get running. Gonna try Koto out soon.

I posted a polyphonic granular synthesizer patch from the abunch archive that I adapted for use with norns-mother. Enjoy!

Great. Is available also the template OSC for iPhone?

Yes, it is in the github repository.

I tried to upload to the iPhone but the template is out of size :frowning:

Yep, I HAD only made an ipad version so far, but I just updated the directory with an iphone version (try it?)

Simply great! :heart:
it would be great to have more accurate visual feedback. I notice that OSC sometimes responds slowly

One of the benefits and drawbacks of OSC is that it requires wifi. Move closer to your wifi router and see if that helps. The patch also bogs down occasionally, which might be what you’re seeing.

Also, patch loading is slow. Doesn’t update till it is done.

Oh man, this is so rad. I sold my Organelle a few months ago and really miss some of the arpeggiator patches. I used to rock the Genny patch a lot and can confirm that it works on Norns Shield.

I’ve been wanting to explore the organelle world for a while and just jumped in to norns mother. Would you mind suggesting some compatible “essentials” for a newcomer?

Genny, Rhodey, LoFi-Piano, Koto, are the ones I use the most. Also, all the patches in this video are compatible with Norns Mother.

Hell yes. I downloaded Koto recently and plan to use it over the next day or so. Wanted to record a loop in to my Morphagene. Plus, mix that with the harp and put a 10 second texture of the two in to the Arbhar!

Has anybody come up with an elegant solution to sequencing this from a DAW in terms of how you connect it? I want to sequence it from BitWig and can’t get it up and running right…
