Oh exciting!
As long as the standard operation remains too. I love sending in rhythmic gates that i manually change too. Adds a lot of musical possibilities and now with JF v.4 and geode I’m sure its going to be a wild ride. I also want to say the new output modes are amazing. Having the ability to sequence midi gear and process it through the modular is opening new portals of sound. :sparkles:

Sorry for asking a silly question like this but how would you send midi out? I’m assuming through one of the USB ports in the back of Norns? Otherwise there is no midi port on Norns that I’m aware of. Thx

Exactly — for instance, on my end, I’m using a usb/din midi cable that plugs into the midi in on my audio interface.

Wow that’s awesome. Thx!

No prob! Once connected, your midi device will appear under DEVICES/MIDI in norns’ main system menu with an associated number.

How do you set patchwork to start running using the internal clock (i.e. not clocked by crow)? I tried to use it as a midi sequencer but couldnt get it to start…

Patchwork was initially designed as a crow-based sequencer (exclusively), but I’m adding support for internal clocking atm! Hopefully will have an update in the next week.

This is amazing! Most fun session I’ve had in months tonight with this controlling JF and my Hydra synth and Ansible doing other duties in my case. Absolutely wonderful!

Patchwork is so satisfying. I find great pleasure in two independently clocked sequences, stumbling around drunkenly, only to be synced up again by the number “1”.

Thanks!

closing the loop! this session happened! @Olivier, @mattlowery + @encephalitislethargi and i had an early AM meetup, tons of warm energy, we made this *norns walkthrough*: hacking a script to add MIDI output !

Patchwork is such a beautiful, expressive, deep script and it was such a joy to be able to mainline some of its magic with this crew :revolving_hearts:

Noob question here. How do I get the Patchwork sequences to run?

  • Crow is connected to JF via i2c (I just updated both Crow and JF successfully today, so that shouldn’t be the issue).
  • Output (A) and (B) is set to jf.vox 1 and 2 respectively (if I set them to Crow 1+2 and 3+4 JF reacts immediately, meaning the i2c connection to JF should be alright).
  • I’m sending triggers/gates from Ansible into Crow’s inputs (have I misunderstood “To drive the sequences, send triggers into crow’s inputs.” ?)

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Hey! I’ve found that a loaded script on crow can sometimes cause conflicts with Patchwork (among others). Sounds like you’ve got everything connected as it should be, so I’d try the following to start:

  1. In the maiden repl, try sending a crow.clear() command, and then re-loading Patchwork.
  2. If you have another trigger source in your system, try sending it to crow’s input(s)

If you’re still stuck, send me a dm and we’ll take it from there!

Got a (relatively) stable release worked out, but got distracted by regular work duties. Will hopefully get back to this soon.

What an amazing script. Finally had time to dig it, and i was only using one of the sequencers with juts friends…just thinking i could usd the other sequencer with midi!
Any thoughts on making compatible with txo?
Congrats on a keeper script!

Thanks!! Glad you’re enjoying it :slight_smile: Great call on TXo – I never considered it (and I have no idea how to implement support for it), but I’ll take a :eyes:

Thanks Olivier! Thag would be awesome, cheers!

I actually have some experience and knowledge of TXo functions and abilities. If it’s about putting them in to self oscillating settings, with their envelopes and waveforms, I could give a little input and possible apply code. I’ve come a bit further with my Lua and became familiar with the TXo functions thanks to using the Teletype and some Max patches through crow.

I’d be down to collab and give you some basic functional heads ups. I’m pretty busy with the baby boy, so i might only be able to share info, but I’d be curious to try the code base and point you in the right direction.

That would be great! I actually have a TXo+ in my case (therefore familiar, generally, with its osc + envelope settings), but wasn’t sure if crow → TXo communication was only possible in development builds of the crow firmware. Send over a dm and we’ll take it from there!

Hi! I envy you lot knowing how to code with lua and norns. Trying to get my grip with teletype at the moment, your inputs is greatly appreciated! Muchas gracias
