ORAC for Terminal Tedium
Status: Alpha release
Requirements
Terminal Tedium running FATES (though others should work fine)
2 x SH1106 OLED displays, using I2C on 0x60, and 0x61
Installation:
This has been tested on a terminal tedium running the FATES install.
it should work on others, but the idea is to have a base line install
(basically, the install assumes a user called ‘we’, so create that an should work on other distros )
defaults:
hostname: norns
username: we password:sleep
the general install of this should work, the only two modifications were made
a) disable encoders and screen in /boot/config.txt
just comment out the line that says something like
dtoverlay=fates-buttons-encoders
dtoverlay=fates-ssd1322,rotate=180
b) disable norns
sudo systemctl stop norns.target
sudo systemctl disable norns.target
c) i rename host to tt, but thats optional!
use raspi-config
(you can also setup wifi and expand fs whilst here)
then reboot
from here we can proceed to install orac
(note: you will need internet access to install things like PD which is a dependancy )
unzip orac.deb.zip , and copy orac.deb from your desktop to home directory of your TT.
then
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ./orac.deb
Running
once installed, it runs as a system service which is already enabled, you can stop with
systemctl stop orac
(use journalctl to check logs)
if all is installed correctly, you will hear a ‘demo’ patch, and see the display
(note: this guide does not cover Orac usage, see my videos for how to use orac :))
On the top display we have the ‘menu’
on the bottom display we have the paramters for the current module/page
the black buttons are up/down , the led button is ‘func’
when func is unlit, buttons are used to target parameters display
up/down change pages within module
func + up/down change module
hold func for 1 second, will light func, and we are not in menu display mode
up/down - selects menu item
func - selects item (either activating, or entering sub menu)
CV 1,2, 4 & 5 control parameters 1-4 respectively
tips:
cv clock module - allows you to input and output gate - replace normal clock in S2!
cv note module - can be used for cv/gate from spare cv and digital inputs
audio input - is disabled by default, go to the router (S1) and you will find a parameter to increase ‘gain’ for input on a chain.
midi is supported, you will need to setup alsa midi to connect to PD, using aconnect
have fun, happy patching

I think probably support all be on muffwiggler , given thats where I think most TT users hangout.
