Thanks for shipping on the date you said while pushing out those bug fixes two weekends ago! I’m so excited to get a real one with the screen!

[gigasturtz]

[gigasturtz]

mmmm shipping notification bliss

[bradfromraleigh]

Received mine about an hour ago!

[franwilder]

It came. I turned it on. Instant smile, knob turning, button pressing. Unlike any other electronic instrument I own.

[lazzarello]

Battery is is a rad vibe

Great buzz for me seeing someone using an app of mine in the wild!

[cosmicsoundexplorer]

Just updated Norns so I could try your app. It’s unreal! Thanks for making such a rad app. Does it output midi?

[declutter]

Not yet. Feel free to work on it if you want!

[gigasturtz]

i had a dream while riding my alarms snooze that i woke up and the shipment tracker said it was out for delivery today instead of tomorrow. i guess i’m excited.

Namaste,

I am also curious as to when the next batch of Norns will be available to order…
Please excuse my ignorance, but does www.monome.org take pre-orders?

Thanks.

Kind Regards,

Victor

we don’t take pre-orders perpetually. orders are accepted when we have a set ship date. we’ll be ready for orders in about a month.

This may be a dumb question, but do any of the apps output midi information currently? Several searches didn’t reveal anything. I’m putting together a small mobile rig for some upcoming camping trips and am trying to figure out what will play nicely with what, what to experiment with, etc. Not a coder, myself.

[lazzarello]

Yes, the Loom sequencer sends note on/off messages. Playing it right now with a digital piano. Select Output: Audio + MIDI in params.

The Foulplay sequencer can send MIDI and is a 8 track sequencer.

Those are the only ones that turned up in a search for keyword midi on the master branch.
