@indraperkasa Well, sorry to hear about that Cubase issue. You might be able to use a third party app that lets you route midi signal around. I’ll do some digging.

aaah! Amazing @mncmncmnc I’d love to hear it, do you know if it was recorded?

thank you! :pray:t4: please let me know if u have any recommendations for the third party app.

Just have little video snippets of this one (will see if I can collect a couple to send you), but next time will record for real for sure :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

just started looking at Orca this week. I’ve been using it with supercollider, it’s really fixed my gripes with handling sequencing(I just don’t like Pdef for some reason). Super cool piece of work, I can tell I’ll be digging into it for a while! I’m actually suddenly excited to get into live coding now, I’ve been really enjoying my accidental discoveries and feel like this is an interface I could really use in realtime.

Thanks for the hard work that has clearly been put into this, I’m excited to see where it goes from here!

Moved to Orca norns thread.

#505

@kasselvania For the Norns port of Orca, use this thread.

#506

Whoops! Thought that was it. They’re both titled similarly, got it mixed up.

Makenoise has this little Instagram t shirt contest they are doing where you use an unconventional means to control your 0 Coast and post it.

I can now proudly say that today’s accomplishment was to make Makenoise aware of ORCA! Hopefully I get a sweet t shirt too.

Nice! I’ve spent the last few weeks regularly spreading the gospel of ORCA as well!

i mean… who doesnt? Its pretty silly how excited i got when they said that. :nerd_face:

I saw a while back that the c port of ORCA was ported to the raspberry pi with the TFT hat. I wonder if there is any plan to port PILOT as well? I was looking recently at integrated Raspi cases and batteries and had the thought of how amazing a standalone raspi based ORCA instrument would be

#512

One of the reason I haven’t really looked into that, is that I mostly use hardware synths with Orca-c. I don’t know how to write lightweight headless synths in C.

#513

turns out that I was one of the winners of the makenoise contest, so theyre going to repost my vid in their stories. Im pretty stoked to be able to help expose a fairly large and focused audience to Orca!

Can someone explain the P push command to me? I’ve not really been able to wrap my head around it. When I’ve used it, nothing really gets pulled across. Instead, I can basically just change where the symbol gets pushed by changing the in command.

For Example,

15P8
8 . . . .

Now, if I change 1 to say, 4

45P8
8 . . 8 .

Am I missing any other abilities that it has?

Say I would like to shift an input from my keyboard Eastward, similar to how an E command would work, but it actually basically sending that number Eastward until it hits either a halt or the border of my patch. How would I go about doing that?

#515

P is the write version of T.

Have a look at this example to better understand how this work.

You could use the L to help move things around:

There might also be a clever thing to be done with:

Thanks so much! Going to give these a shot. I was hoping to use the grid buttons, having them randomize either sample or note register, have them go along a track and have those affect other things, if the right conditions are met.

There’s some inspiration from a script I saw in the Norns version by @mlogger that had samples/note registers along a track. I wanted to see about creating conveyer style setups, where occasionally and with some probability, Inputs will make it to different destinations. Hopefully this will get me closer to this.

Is there a way I can send midi-clock to two slaves, so that when I start the clock in orca, it would start the clock on both my machine and DAW?

i.e.

     OP-Z
    /
orca
    \
    Reaper.fm (using OP-Z as audio interface)

Or can I chain it?

orca -> OP-Z -> Reaper.fm
#518

Should be able to chain it, assuming OP-Z has some kinda midi out.

Wait - what are the connections here? You might need to make an internal bridge or virtual device if orca and reaper are on the same machine.

#519

I’m actually not sure… I have tried a few ideas, but it gets tough. It depends on which of these devices can have midi come in and send clock at the same time. The OPZ might be able to do this with a powered hub… not full sure.

My main concern is the third device you’ve mentioned. I’ve had the Norns send to two devices on some apps, but others only send clock through midi 1.
