Ah, maybe that’s my problem…that not all the lower-case ops are online yet.

I’ll give your idea a shot though, thanks!

Think I might also try it via the Timber parameters, instead of the triggers.

This ‘kinda’ works! The button triggers a bang consistently, but the ‘c’ changes intermittently on the bang. I’m still playing with the right D settings, but I think once the code is ironed out, this approach will work!

Also, I think setting up a grid row as a slider, and returning numbers instead of bangs will open up a solution.

Updates

  • = OSC operator: locks each consecutive eastwardly ports. Unlike original, this takes full paths. Use ; delimeter to specify values, eg =grid/led/set;x;y;z
    Havent fully tested yet.

  • ‘^’ operator: rate changed to mode, now operates on bang by default. Set mode to 0 for random in-scale notes. Values > 0 will set corresponding scale note.

  • All passive operators working

Is there a chart for the scales somewhere?

Also: looks like the grid ‘slider’ option (leaving x or y blank) is broken.

Are the saved projects deleted every time I git pull an update? No big losses yet, but good to know how to backup stuff

127

dont think so saved projects are in dust/data/orca so git pull on dust/code/orca wont change it. :wink:

128

No, but there are still may be breaking changes prior to 1.0 release

129

Is there a way to reset the frames/counter, similar to the desktop version?

130

Is it possible to use a midi keyboard to control one of the timber operators melodically, as you would with timber keys?

131

I’ve added midi in operator, but it only outputs values 1-z for now. Havent really tested any sound operators in original orca :upside_down_face: Btw, you can also use grid sliders for this

How would one go about getting the 16n faderpack to interface with this app? Via midi? I haven’t been down that road yet…YET.

133

Loaded up the stems for a track into Orca. Sample triggers on the left side of Grids, two loopers on the right side. Played this down live, although I did edit it down from a longer jam…thank god!

@dudadius that’s a great idea using the loopers :slight_smile:

I have a quick question for @its_your_bedtime Im not quite sure how the midi operator works

  • & midi in : Outputs midi note

Is this for playing with a midi keyboard? If so does it need to be banged?
Hoping to incorporate a faderfox slider which I guess is midi CC?
Would like to bend and warp a few short looped samples with the slider from inside Orca

Jason, tnx! Yea, there are so many modulation possibilities, I’d like to get my 16n fader or at least Arc routed to some of them.

Updates

  • added channel input for & midi in
  • new midi cc in operator - ^
  • ^ r.note is now $

These ( & and ^ ) listen to incoming events on specified channel

Someone was asking over in a help thread…

Does MIDI Clock IN work to control tempo/bpm?

I did a quick test and bpm did not change.

EDIT - also a request - can the MIDI Channel param be moved to the top of the params page (below bpm). Currently Its buried at the bottom which involves scrolling for days. :smirk:

139

I was also wondering about this, tried to no avail

140

I’ll check midi in (i was sure that handled by beatclock lib itself).
You can hold shift+arrow for fast scroll to the bottom

141

Did some testing… Beatclock was not getting passed the midi data so it was not handling clock.

I was also seeing a nil table error on orca.vars.midi[m.ch] = m.note so I made the following changes.

This works with external clock OK

  orca.midi_out_device.event = function(data)
    clock:process_midi(data)
    local m = midi.to_msg(data)
    if m.type == 'cc' then
      orca.vars.midi_cc[m.cc] = m.val
    elseif m.type == 'note_on' then
      orca.vars.midi[m.ch] = m.note 
    end
  end

NOTE: bpm counter in params will not update with the incoming clock bpm. Still not sure how to make that work properly
