cool. I still find it very difficult to think in teletype language. These example vids are helpful.

I agree. My first attempt to script something on TT was easy: an ADSR envelope with four triggers, one at the end of each stage, and manipulating the length of each stage in the tracker. I felt so happy when I got it workingā€¦ But since then, every time I tried an improvement to the scene, making it more complex, I utterly failed. I suppose Iā€™m still learning through the failures. But these tutorials are great to clarify quite a few things. I only wish the videos showed the modules closerā€¦ As they are, yes, they look cool, but they might as well just be audio samples.

indeed-- my goal was just to have an audio banner really. that way the focus would be on the text!

glad these are helping-- weā€™re still just barely getting the basics. the next part will talk about the language itself and really open up TTā€™s amazing possibilities.

Just got my teletype and im totally buzzing with this module, I love having something new to learn. Still having loads of fun playing around with the jumpy edges scene from the first tutorial. Going to try out part 2 later thins evening i really appreciate these tutorials, thanks a lot!

i absolutely love the way you write your studies. Thanks.

When I try holding Win and pressing 1 to trigger script 1 I get nothing. I do not have anything plugged into the inputs as I understand from the Study that I donā€™t need anything plugged in besides my gate and CV outs. At this point in the Study I canā€™t discover what Iā€™m missing.

#9

the studies are a bit out of date, you donā€™t need to hold WIN anymore, just press F1-F10 to trigger the corresponding script

Just answered my own question, the reason Win+1 doesnā€™t work is because the shortcut is FN+J or FN+K etcā€¦

Or as Iā€™m reading from @rdfm we can also use the Function keys.

#11

Do you know the hotkeys for executing the M and I scripts? They used to be Win+M and Win+I, but they too are not seeming to be active anymore.

#12

F9 for M and F10 for I :metal:t2:

Iā€™m reading through these studies to try and get a better understanding of Teletype after seeing how amazing Just Type is. Reading through this one, I had a quick question regarding the N helper. Early in this study the range of 0-10V is specified, but with the N helper, values of 0-127 are accepted. Wouldnā€™t the value of 127 result in 10.583V?

Hi all, just got my teletype and am having tons of fun working through the studies! Iā€™m hoping to get an explanation about the SET aspect of the study. Hereā€™s what I have entered so far:

CV.SLEW 1000

1:
CV 1 N 0

2:
CV.SET 1 N 7

3:
CV.OFF 1 0

4:
CV.OFF 1 N 5

Hereā€™s what Iā€™m experiencing thatā€™s causing confusion: If I press F1, the note slews to its new value. If I then press F2, it jumps immediately to its new value. If I press F3 or F4, the note slews as expected. Once the slew from F3/F4 is finished though, F2 becomes unresponsive. If I press F2 mid-slew to F3/F4 though it jumps to the expected F2 note. (geez I hope this makes senseā€¦)

Is this behaving as expected, and if so, could someone offer an explanation? Thank you!

Oh damn! I think I figured it out. I wasnā€™t understanding how the offsets were working. Theyā€™re not ā€œnewā€ notes when I press F3/4, but adjustments to the notes that are already there, hence the ā€œunresponsiveā€ button. I was focused on the SET aspect because it was the newest thing in the scene and when I should have been thinking more about the OFF.

Anyways, thank you for reading. In lieu of explanations I will now accept words of encouragement and compliments.
