Ultomaton - Generative Effects Processor

eblomquist · 2020-03-07T22:25:16.648Z

Ok. Do I need to do this each time I want to open the program?

ithkaa · 2020-03-08T07:20:24.758Z

I don’t think so but don’t know for sure… I never re-enabled gatekeeper

@fahmi_m indeed, it is. check out this thread on the Upshot Suite: Upshot Suite - Max Package. I’m still developing this package so things are changing all the time.

Hmmm.

I ran the code in Terminal but am still getting the message that the app is damaged and should be moved to the trash.

eblomquist · 2020-03-08T15:48:53.858Z

I got this in Terminal:

did you try this out?

slowsounds · 2020-03-08T17:47:08.155Z

great, that one worked thank you. looking forward to trying this out

eblomquist · 2020-03-08T20:31:03.605Z

That worked, thanks!!!

I got the same error message, and the sudo terminal command didn’t fix it. I remembered to check settings and tick “Allow apps downloaded from anywhere” under the Security and Privacy tab, and it works now. This is probably an obvious one, but just in case anyone else gets the same error, this could be the reason.

Hi @ithkaa is it possible to increase the ramp time >1sec. I am trying t achieve more linear fades. (M4L version) Thanks

matthewdavid · 2020-07-05T19:37:49.221Z

@ithkaa sometimes attack detection on GoL works only sometimes – lots of times it just wont & im relying on that funtionality >> . any tip? threshold set small/tight - thanks!

ithkaa · 2020-07-07T08:44:02.807Z

… it depends on what instrument you’re playing. The incoming audio signal has to drop below a certain threshold before a new attack can be detected. Typically, percussive instruments are great for attack detection but f.i. vocals or string instruments not so much (unless some staccato is applied).

Anyway, I found that AD won’t trigger at all when the threshold is set to minimum so I fixed that. You can find the updated MacOS app on Github (don’t have a Windows machine here … will update that version later).

matthewdavid · 2020-07-07T18:10:17.106Z

ah, makes sense. and thanks for the little update too.
i appreciate this, and all your work as a whole Ben!

inaglasshouse · 2020-07-08T01:18:36.548Z

Hey has anyone had an issue on MacOS Catalina where the actual window for Ultomaton doesn’t show up? The App starts fine but the window is nowhere to be seen. Thanks!

ithkaa · 2020-07-08T08:31:32.938Z

Happened to me too. I don’t know why this happens but the latest version seems to start up fine. I’m on a MBP 15’’ late 2013 (10.15.5) and have to wait about 30’’ for the app window to pop up.

vicimity · 2020-07-08T08:56:05.373Z

I’m trying to launch this aswell but no main window. 30" (seconds?) doesn’t help. Am I missing something? Do I need Max installed (I have Ableton with M4L). I’m on Mojave, MBP 13" mid 2014.

ithkaa · 2020-07-08T11:13:42.426Z

Did you download the latest version?

vicimity · 2020-07-08T11:28:12.285Z

Yes. Downloaded again this morning just to be sure.
