Hi @KitKatAndy !

Thanks for your reply. So, ok it’s the only way I was thinking about.
Maybe it will improve…
It can to be cool to have the possibility of setting it in a init scene…

that was the main idea behind this proposal: NOTE teletype op

Have you looked into Ansible’s i2c leader mode (new in v3.0.0)?

Ok I need to try it. That sound exactly what I mean. Thank you :pray:t2:

Ok I must to upgrade… thank you :blush:

I would probably recommend updating directly to the latest beta, posted here.

sorry - i should’ve been more clear - it’s just a proposal, not currently implemented.

Great :+1:t3: cool I will made from here. Thanks again.

Ah ok I was believe it’s rule.
Yes it’s a good idea that you have, I hope it will developed, it can simplify things.

I’m trying to add probability to a trigger pattern but my skills are still poor.
Having a simple pattern:
1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0

and script 1 with:
X PN.NEXT 0
IF NZ X: TR.P 1

Script 1 is triggered by metro with $1

How can I add a PROB op to decide to read or not the 1 values in the pattern?

My favored method of adding probability is to generate a random number in a fixed range and move a threshold around within that range. Then random numbers which fall above the threshold can be your triggers. I also shy away from conditional PREs and use the ternary IF operator ? instead, where possible.

But in your case, I’d use PROB Y: TR.P ? X 1 5. There is no trigger 5 to ping, so that gets ignored.

First lets do some spring-cleaning, shall we?

J PN.NEXT 0
IF J: TR.P 1

Or in one line:

IF PN.NEXT 0: TR.P 1

You go back to the two line version like this:

J PN.NEXT 0
PROB 90: BRK
IF J: TR.P 1

Or with RND

J PN.NEXT 0
IF && J ! RND 9: TR.P 1

Not sure this one-liner will fit (away from my teletype):

IF && PN.NEXT 0 ! RND 9: TR.P 1

If you set the pattern somewhere else (or don’t change it somewhere else), you can loose the “0”:

 IF && P.NEXT ! RND 9: TR.P 1

@desolationjones and @a773 your ideas and explanation worked perfectly and introduced me some concepts I’m still missing with practical examples, many thanks! :pray:

you could also use the pattern values themselves to set the probability for each step:

PROB P.NEXT: TR.P 1

Hi everyone,new teletype user here, with some trouble loading scenes. On a side note, when I first turned on my TT, I noticed a lot of constantly LED flickering lights on the TT. After a firmware update (see below), this has resolved. And the stock keyboard seems to be faulty as well. When I type a key, it keeps eternally repeating this letter.

So, I downloaded a few scenes from this forum, renamed them tt##.txt and put them on a USB stick (FAT formatted) and inserted that into my teletype. The teletype screen flickered briefly and that was about it. No request to overwrite scenes and no “read” or “write” message. I tried that with numerous USB sticks, to no avail. I then updated my teletype firmware from 3.0 to the newest one, which is 3.2. Still no difference. However, I managed to also get my default scenes wiped in the process, and now have no scenes at all. When I try to flash the firmware again, it does ask me whether I want to overwrite scenes, and I push the button next to the USB port on my teletype. Nothing seems to happen when I do that; the screen does not change until I reboot. I also downloaded the default TT scenes but can’t upload them to my TT as the USB method doesn’t work. What should I try next:

  1. Try a newer USB stick instead? Which one (could you provide a link to Amazon in the US?)?
  2. Maybe this is erratic behavior due to insufficient power in my rack (Arturia RackBrute)? Maybe I should disconnect a few modules from Eurorack power?

Thank you so much for your help! Marius

This definitely seems worth trying, the behavior you describe sounds like quite possibly a power problem – seems like this could also result in supplying insufficient power for correct operation of attached USB devices.

I did that: I disconnected several other modules and it still doesn’t work. I re-flashed TT 3.2 firmware, and it asks me to overwrite scenes at the end of the process. I push the button next to the USB port, and at first nothing happens. No confirmation, or read or write message. After a few seconds, I end up at the code entry prompt but the default scenes are not there. Any other ideas how to recover my default scenes and upload new scenes via USB? Thanks os much, Marius

it will show that message whenever you flash a new firmware - this is normal. it’s just a safeguard to prevent overwriting scenes accidentally.

the default scenes are only included when you flash one of the official releases - are you using a beta version? if so, you can still get the default scenes by copying them via a USB stick. if you’re unable to read scenes from a USB stick, that sounds like a separate issue.

Good to know that I shouldn’t be expecting default scenes with a firmware flash. So, that leaves me with having to figure out the USB upload problem. I will try a new USB drive next (I chose a 16 GB USB 2.0 off amazon - felt that was conservative enough). Will see what happens. Marius

you should expect the default scenes after flashing - but only if you use the official release. where did you get the firmware file from?
