Renoise the tracking app? Have not used that in ages. Love it though. https://www.renoise.com/.

Ok… spent some time and got it working.

It was Renoise the tracking app. I opened it up, fiddled around with it, double checked the the Python script wondering why it might not be working and noticed the script uses port 8001 for osc. So I enabled osc in Renoise after loading some demo song (‘Bears’) and made sure to change the port to 8001.

The 00 instrument ‘Drum Machine’ worked with the first two colums for rays.py.

Checking out more sounds here. Works great. Hope to post about it later.

Sweet!

Right, the only working synth implementation in pymonome-apps is Renoise, but it’s easy to add your own by inheriting synths.Synth.

And for some reason I can’t edit the original post to link to the new grid studies. Mods, any ideas?

UPD: thanks, @ioflow :slight_smile:

For what it’s worth, I just ordered an Arc last week with the goal of using it in Python.
I’ll start looking at what is need to get it working with pymonome once it arrives (assuming the import taxes don’t bankrupt me first).

#36

Hey, I dug out my monome from 2012, and I can’t seem to get it to play nice with the current tutorial. Does anyone have compatible modules and code?

#37

Which version of Python are you using?
As the tutorial notes, it only supports Python3.5…

Are you getting a specific error message?

#38

I’ve tried using 3.7 at first and i got this error:

So I downgraded to 3.5 to avoid that, but the software totally doesn’t interact with my monome at all.

The code and tutorials were completely different when I bought this so, I think maybe that’s the issue?

#39

Python 3.7 syntax support has landed recently on github. Do other monome apps (Max, etc.) work with your grid?

#40

If you’re using the latest version of pymonome, you can fix that error by changing instances of asyncio.async in the tutorials to asyncio.ensure_future.

#41

omg you guys are the best.

I went and got max 8 and was able to realize that serialosc wasn’t running in the background because i needed to restart (turn off my computer? is that even possible?). after restarting max was able to pick it up

after that i just had to change asyncio.async in a few places and update the python grid tutorial download files to match what’s actually in the online documentation

the master branch of pymonome now has arc support.

the api has also changed a bit to cover a few additional use-cases, so i am going to update the examples and grid studies for python shortly.

Modern alternative to Griddle for merging monomes/arduinomes?
#44

Hi all!

I have two 40h laying around and am thinking of getting a norns, and doing my research beforehand.

Any ideas around combining two 64/40h into one 128? Dan told me it is not supported as such, but would be a script-level change.

#45

Yes, I’ve been working on a new version of midigrid and I am currently using two 64* button launchpad mini’s as a 128. I’ve been on a bit of a development hiatus though. I would like to support dual 64 grids, but I’m not sure what the best way to attack this is, and it’s right at the bottom of the feature list TBH.

What’s your coding ability?

#46

Coding ability is moderate when it comes to this type of stuff - I decided to build a neotrellis_monome_teensy (still trying to get it to talk to serialosc on the PC), but still it would be fun to play around with the two 40h’s as well. Right now it is a bit on the backburner here as well (sorry for the late response), because I’m still waiting for the Fates PCB to arrive.

#47

Hey @artfwo,
the pip version of pymonome library no longer works, it doesn’t have the add_handler function that the git version has. Just thought I’d let you know, keep up the great work!

#48

What version is installed by pip exactly? I’ve just checked pypi and it has version 0.10 which is identical to git master.

#49

pip version 20.1.1

sorry, forgot to mention the problem was with the aiosc module which I believe is 1.4 but the pip version is 1.3

I might be doing something wrong…

//edit
Just double checked and its definitely 1.4… sorry to waste your time.

I’m trying to get the Python grid studies working with a 40h on the latest Ubuntu Studio (Groovy), with Python 3.8 and the latest versions of the study files and Pymonome.

It recognises button presses, but I can’t get the LEDs working. I’m guessing the code only works with varibright models and I’m not sure what needs changing…any thoughts…?

(I’ve seen a note about varibright translation being done via serialosc; it’s on the latest version, 141.)

#52

I have a 40h - I’ve previously got pymonome code working with it - not sure if it was the studies that you’re looking at but one thing to check is that you may need to set the led level to 15 for the LEDs to come on

I’m not at home at the moment but I can check some of your code on my 40h in a few days if you’re still stuck.

…thanks, useful to know it can be made to work. I was using 15, but I’ll do some more experimenting…

#54

Both pymonome and serialosc independently support varibright -> monobright translation.

Does you grid work with other apps and implementations (max/pd)? Have you tried using monobright methods in your code, i.e. led_set instead of led_level_set?
