The electron ones should fit if they're anything like the octatrack knobs, they look like they're just regular d-shafts as well. Unfortunately, the pack comes with only 1 pot and a bunch of encoders which is less useful. Anyone try the DJ tech tools…
I think if nunja can't even get a sync signal going, there is definitely some hardware issue going on.
That said, I think you're right - the current system of having two different channels (global and voice-specific) that both produce chromatic pla…
ok enjoy it! I think I misunderstood what you were asking. When samples import, they all load at the same time from the 'samples' folder into a 'list' that you can use instead of an oscillator. For a drum part, you can select a sample from the 'lis…
I tried playing around with loading samples last night and I think the current operation is as good as it can be for now, so I'm not going to work on improving this. Samples get hard-coded into nonvolatile memory, so the way it works now, saved kits…
In the branch above, I've added support for bank change per voice (oh and all the params work too now). If CC0 messages are sent on the voice MIDI channels instead of global, that voice will change to the kit specified (0-127), while leaving the res…
Is the silkscreening done on these or is it possible to get some custom screens? also, do these ship with switches, if not, what is the part for a switch that will fit them?
I'll look into this - no promises though I want to get morph targets loaded with kits first, probably by introducing a separate file with the correct linkages. If this goes well it might be possible to do the same thing here.
phew!
so, bank select seems to be working - check it out on the branch above if you dare!
If you send it a MIDI CC#0 signal on the global midi channel, it will change to that number kit. There is some minor weirdness going on (if you do this while…
OK, spent some time with the MIDI code, and reporting back with my findings.
As I understand it, the way the MIDI implementation stands now, using 'Bank MSB' for anything isn't really possible. The MIDI CC interpreter and the functions that pass pa…
oof, I see why MIDI CC 1 and 0 are not trivial additions... there's a -1 offset that gets applied to every MIDI CC for some reason. It's not unfixable, but I have to go through all the bits that handle the back and forth between the front and mainbo…
I think the most sensible thing would be to leave program (pattern) change the way it is for now and put kit changes for the first 128 saved kits on bank MSB (CC0), which I think is currently unassigned. Since the current MIDI program (pattern) chan…
I can look at this, it would be extremely useful, but given how long it takes to store a pattern normally it might screw with sequencer operation. Maybe an 'auto-save on sequencer stop' global option?
Mostly for part button functions, programming long pattern chains or for doing fast pattern rotation switching. Could put a software option in to make it a toggle i suppose, but momentary operation is probably fine for most!
Yeah, as julian said its on his to do list i dont want to replicate what he might be working on. Its certainly on my list too though, so i will work on it if i get the other features done first.
Instant pattern switching as a global option added!

the code branch is: https://github.com/brendanclarke/LXR/tree/instapattern
This introduces a new option in the global settings …
phew!
I added the necessary functions, seems to work ok after some initial testing (ie i tried doing the other copy operations and they still work as expected). You can get Firmware 0.34 with the added functionality here:

well goes to show how much I love the sound of this thing I just find myself avoiding using it for complex tasks because I know I'll end up shooting myself in the foot when I hit this limitation.
I finally nutted up and took a look at the code tod…
Am I maybe not explaining this correctly? This is a huge workflow issue as far as I'm concerned.
Let's say I make a 1-bar loop on pattern 1, and then copy it to pattern 2 to add some fill/variation with, say, the hi-hat voice.
Now I want to make …
agreed! a MIDI CC for morph seems an odd omission since the global decimation is on there. IMO this would be a fine thing to put on the mod wheel (CC1).
ehhhhh..... I'm with julian on this, I think kits should be the most granular storage for voices, but being able to 'bring in' voices from other kits would be a good compromise. I do a lot of inter-modulation between voices in a kit with both the lf…
Don't know if this will completely solve your problem, but there is a FLW parameter in the global settings that you can turn off to lock editing to the selected sequence, regardless of chaining.
Sorry, but that thread doesn't describe a solution. Copying an entire pattern (all voices) works fine, as does copying a track from one voice to another within the same pattern. What I would like to do is copy the track from a voice in one pattern t…
