that’s great stuff! thank you! :slight_smile:

Is there a way to rename the save when in the persistence screen?
I tried to highlight the 1:UNTITLED name and none of the buttons or encoders seem to enter into another state to change the name. I checked out the docs but can’t seem to get it to work.
It is awesome to be able to save the patterns created into the data folder though! killer work BTW - Takt is rockin it!

Awesome, thanks for jumping on that so fast!
Would it be difficult to have a pattern sequencer record the changes to the patterns or map them to midi cc?
I was thinking about making some longer sequences or complete songs from the bank of patterns.
Again, it’s an awesome script.

just tried this script for the first time – amazing! i had a lot of fun loading up random tape recordings and going wild with parameter locks + probability.

having previously owned a digitakt, i’ve found myself missing it from time to time, so thank you @its_your_bedtime for bringing a lot of the 'takt charm to norns (and for improving it by adding pattern sequencing!). also i think the effects in this sound WAAAY better :slight_smile:

:pray: i humbly submit these feature suggestions:
• an option to swap press behavior for step selection and step off. right now it takes a long press to turn a step off and i find this slows down my sequence writing workflow. i would love to swap behaviors so a long press selects the step for parameter editing with quick taps turning steps on/off.
• clock swing
• higher resolution start position (maybe hold down shift button while adjusting value to add a decimal?)
• semitone values for playback speed
• realtime input. this is more of a “nice to have” as i recognize this might be a really big ask… in terms of UI, i have an alternate grid display page concept i’d be happy to elaborate on if this interests you. i could also see this feature available only if one has an external midi keyboard connected.

Has anybody used this app with a non-varibright grid? If so, how is the general navigation/information experience?

This potential new vari-bright driver project by @stevieraysean can’t happen soon enough! :wink:

Summary

Hey everyone
I’m oddly having a LOT of trouble figuring out how this program works. The instructions are leaving me a bit confused.

When beginning to work with it, I have chosen just two samples (tape recordings for ease of learning)

When I’ve done that and am in the home screen, I can place the sample hits on rows 1 and 2 for the selected samples respectively.

When I press play, it’s cool! They trigger! If I change any param about that sample, it changes all of them… okay…

So, I go to the pattern screen… well, I guess I put stuff there? I don’t really get it… what am I putting on the second row? I place buttons there, nothing happens… is this a way for me to place different patterns over time? I’m not getting any readout on the third line for sequence length/end points, maybe because I’m working with a much older non-varibright grid…

So, how can I change each hit of the sample accordingly? How does the pattern screen work? I’m sorry for all the questions, just for some reason it’s not clicking for me and I can’t tell why…

I’m not getting any read out on the third

Just found the Lock param stage, so I think this will be a little easier to figure out, at least on the home page.

Any chance someone could do a straight forward explanation of how the pattern page works? I can’t seem to get the sequence start/end figured out.

Sorry. Of course it took me writing a million questions here about how the app works, to then basically crack the nut.

Sorry and thanks for a really fun program.

Thanks for kind words! The update for takt is in my todo list, but i thought mainly about switching to timber engine (which i would complement with complete UI redesign).

i remember fiddling with that, but it resulted in a lot of accidental trigs erase (maybe i should give it another try)

Sorry about that! Glad you figured it out)

ah that would be amazing :slight_smile: i’m having so much fun with this script – excited to see how it develops.

thanks again!

Got a new grid (variable brightness!!) and I have loved getting more time with Takt and all of its information.

I was looking at the suggested potential add ons and one is like to see is an option for gating the sound. Currently, the release is (naturally) sloped. It would be cool to be able to put a gate as a (lockable?) parameter, that would give extra chances to bring tape recordings in and yet keep a very tight, rigid feel.

Another would be true pitch/semi tone control, like was mentioned above. I guess the timber engine would allow for this in a whole new way.

I also agree with the swing and higher resolution start option…

All of these would just be icing on the cake. I’m very excited to see any potential changes in the future.

this seems to be broken with the new update. is this true for anyone else. :wink:

#23

I actually haven’t had any issues with it on the newest update… what is maiden telling you at boot? What part of it is ‘broken?’

#24

I know I’ve made a lot of requests in this previous post, but a ‘reverse sample’ parameter would also be cool! Jeez, I’m starting to realize that instead of asking everyone for these things, I should maybe just start to learn coding.

Really enjoying this script!! One of the reasons I built Fates, to try and keep me from buying a Digitakt and instead working on an interface with Grid and Arc.

@its_your_bedtime
Just wondering if the switch to Timber engine had been thought about in the previous months?

Was going to look into it myself over the coming month or so, as well as Arc control.
Just new to the Norns engine structure, is the delay and reverb send per voice a feature of the Ack engine? Playing around with Timber im liking the modulation options and but missing the effects that Takt has.

#26

really finally dug into the script tonight…
this is TAKT warped through BOUNDS.

cant seem to clock this externally anyone else having problems? :thinking:

#28

ok added this after line 332 and it seems to work

local counter = beatclock.new()
local counter_midi = midi.connect()
counter_midi.event = function(data)
counter:process_midi(data)
end
:grinning:

also how would i go about adding this feature… to have the sequencer start at position 1 after a stop/start

I can’t answer your current questions ueation, instead I can only thank you for the work you’ve done in the midi clock in. I’ve been wanting that! Please post any other conclusions you might have in regards to what you’ve asked, re: start/stop.

Hi @its_your_bedtime,

Any plans to make this crow compatible?

dont have one, sorry. also all my modular stuff, except RIP (heh) is sold (for now)

meanwhile…
