    @Julian ... that makes sense... 
    Also the entering of the letters for the naming is a bit complicated. I've seen a synth where it was done in a very smart way but i can't remember wich one. But i think it would be possible to use more pots for this.

    about the naming. in another thread there was the idea to use the buttons as some sort of keyboard.

    I don't know if that would be elegant... you would need letters all over the box. It was something like this
    1 pot moved the cursor.
    1 pot jumped between numbers small letters and capital letters
    1 pot would scroll thru the letters. 
    In the meantime it would stil be possible to use the encoder in the 'oldfashioned way.

    i've been looking at my synths but no one has this. I've probably seen this in some digital mixer or fx unit.

    I like even just one pot to move the cursor and one to scroll so you could do it two handed...but using 3 or all 4 could be really nice too.

    @shiftr something like that sounds great. I'll see what I can do!
  • drkorgdrkorg
    agree on the shiftr naming idea!

    firmware version 0.18 brings a new naming scheme.

    You have to move the cursor to the first letter of the name to activate the knobs.
    knob 1: move cursor
    knob 2: left = upper, right = lower case (only works on letters)
    knob 3: scroll through all available symbols

    the encoder function is still the same.

    Love the new naming function. So much easier to give proper names!

    Do you have any plans for the fourth knob? I'm thinking:

    knob 1: move cursor
    knob 2: left = upper, right = lower case (only works on letters)
    knob 3: scroll through all available letters
    knob 4: scroll through all available numbers and symbols

    I'd like it more like this

    knob 1: move cursor
    knob 2: left = upper, midleft = lower case, midright = numbers, right = symbols
    knob 3: scroll through all available symbols

    i still reach for the encoder every time! the new method works easily enough though.

    How about implementing this naming method on the lfo/mod-pages and step edit page? One nob for mod target, one nob for which voice to affect and one nob for amount?

    knob 1: Mod-target
    knob 2: Voice select
    knob 3: value/amount
  • julianjulian
    yeah - the whole mod routing pages need a consistent makeover!
    I'll see what I can do next weekend. ;)
