Haha, no nothing like that. But if you allow the FPS to drop very low, it might be harder to test things, if you allow it to go very high, it’ll take a toll on your CPU.

plug it into Norns passersby :slight_smile:

Added a new operator for monophonic synths, it manages the noteOn/noteOff a bit better than the normal midi operator. Enjoy!

Here’s my first go on Orca playing Norns passersby synth. A really interesting and unique sequencer and a completely different way of working which is really enjoyable. I am not a coder but easy to work with especially after watching the Allieway Audio vids. I love the modular type things you can do with it. Thank you! Now very much looking forward to @its_your_bedtime Norns version :slight_smile: I hope it can be tied to Passersby or FM7 synth on Norns or a sample player of some sort for triggering drums

I’ve had this silly idea at the back of my mind for days…
I just had to do it.

First of all I am absolutely loving this! Is or would it possible to have the app send midi time code? I’m feeding my ORCA to my hexinverter mutant brain and everything is playing nicely minus the MTC data. I’ve got a lot to learn and explore!

Hi !

Do you know why “e” is not played in this situation ? (with pilot).

That’s on the roadmap, give me a few more days and it should be working properly.

@Onosendai I can’t seem to be able to paste this properly, can you surround this by backticks so the forum reads this as a codeblock?

No worries! It will take me more than a few days to wrap my brain around this :wink:

I am loving Orca and Pilot together! I have noticed though that my 2013 i7 macbook gets hot just running these two. Anyone else experiencing this?

#157

Pilot is pretty hungry, try pressing backtick to turn off animation.

@neauoire Loving Orca over here, just shot a video last night of me livecoding my eurorack setup, ORCA + Eurorack, friends forever :heart_eyes:

First question, division is easy, how are people doing multiplication? I can get a steady 1/4 kick going, but i’d love to have some 1/16th note hihat patterns, is this possible?

Second, I’d like to get a simple snare pattern (hits on beats two and four), what pattern are people using for this? I can definitely get 1/2 note patterns but they’re on 1 & 3 and not 2 & 4.

Thanks again, ORCA is fantastic!

There’s two way to go about this, you can either figure out the math you want, or just fill a T operator with bangs, with the patterns you want.

Procedural

Thanks, those patterns look great. Anyway to go faster than the clock without doubling the tempo and halving the notes? (32nd, 64th notes, trills, etc)

#162

No sorry, there’s no way to do that.

Having a go at using UDP…

This is Orca-c on Raspi with examples/_udp.orca Sending to Max on Mac

errors from max console:

udpreceive: OSC packet size (5) not a multiple of 4 bytes: dropping
udpreceive: OSC Bad message name string: DataAfterAlignedString: Unreasonably long string
Dropping entire message.
udpreceive: OSC packet size (5) not a multiple of 4 bytes: dropping
udpreceive: OSC Bad message name string: DataAfterAlignedString: Unreasonably long string

udpreceive: OSC Bad message name string: DataAfterAlignedString: Unreasonably long string
Dropping entire message.
udpreceive: OSC packet size (5) not a multiple of 4 bytes: dropping

Is there another way to look at (debug) the UDP strings being sent?

EDIT - I should also have noted the errors I got from Norns:

/orca/started
liblo error 9913 in path (null): Invalid message path
liblo error 9913 in path (null): Invalid message path
/orca/stopped

You might want to look a Aioi, it convert Orca OSC paths into more complex messages. While it might not be a good option for running on Norns Pi, it might give you some tips on paths.
