  • All the value-changing operations on the LXR can be done with the encoder, the knob at the top of the machine, which is the type that has a little 'click' or detent that you can feel at each value change. The 4 potentiometers are really just shortcu…
  • That's pretty awesome. I'd love to be on board with this, too. Hopefully the Bastl thing will be open-source as well or allow some kind of customizing of the MIDI messages it transmits. If not... it's possible for me to do a version of my FW that g…
  • @-)  Damn, I've only had mine a short while and still haven't completely got to grips with the stock firmware, but I may need to load this up this weekend! Good Luck! It should largely work as described in the manual for the stock firmwar…
  • And - one more. Looper. In PERF mode, sequencer buttons 9-16 let you repeat the currently playing section of the sequence. button 10 repeats an interval of 64 sub-steps (1/2 bar), button 16 repeats a single sub-step (128th note). The in-between butt…
  • More new stuff! - Shift-Play re-loads the last loaded drum kit parameters. - Individual Track Pattern Changes - when in PERF mode, hold one (or more) voice buttons. Then press a select button, as you would for changing patterns. Only those voices o…
  • crazy glitchy modulation sounds pretty good too I'd love to get it higher, but the issue is every morph means 37 parameter MIDI messages have to go from the AVR to the cortex. about 16 32nd notes a second is about 600 messages a second just for one…
  • This is a fun one, but with great power comes great responsibility... Individual voice morph - morphs only a single voice instead of the whole kit. This is available 3 places for now: - You can assign it to a performance macro (so it will be availa…
  • A few little additions this weekend: - Voice audition. When in 'voice' mode with the sequencer stopped, the currently selected sound can be auditioned by pressing its voice select button again. Also useful when in the voice load menu. - Load 'perf…
  • Hello Brende(andclarke ;-)) I have downloaded your GITHUB souce code about 037 dev version where you load individuel tracks :-) I am very interested in integrating this LOAD/SAVE feature to my LWR-OWL program. I did merge your code to mine... and …
  • Thinking about this - another possibility would be to simply ignore the output assignments when loading indiviual voices in my FW. Wouldn't be able to flip through whole kits like that, but you would for just, say picking a snare, etc. This would be…
  • Good to know that myself! I don't do a whole lot of MIDI Out from the LXR I'm working on adding a few little things over the weekend. More improvements to roll, I'd like to have kits wait to load the same way pattern does when perf/all is changed.…
  • From my (very very limited) experience so far with the LFO, it doesn't seem like you'll be able to use it to do what you want ( I would really appreciate it if someone could prove me wrong though! Do what now? Sweep the filter from fully close to f…
  • I have kicked this idea around for my FW. I agree it would be more useful when writing material, but the way I perform live relies on having the routing get recalled with a PC message(I have one stereo pair from LXR>Octatrack dry and one pair thr…
  • hi youkon! glad it's working out for you! for (1) it sounds like you might have a global option switched. I think it's called 'sequencer follow' or something like that, that lets you choose whether the currently playing pattern is the one that is ed…
  • Thanks for bringing that to my attention! I don't normally use the chaining so it's good to get some feedback on that. Can you check and make sure that it isn't a global option that is interfering? For normal pattern chaining (cueing) set 'pci' to o…
  • I think under 'mix' for that track you need to change the 'nte' parameter to 'all'. Not sure about this. Also try setting the 'global preferences' MIDI channel to the same as the System-1.
  • Yes, you can, but this is more difficult, and I don't really do much recording into my LXR so I might have to be corrected on some of this. Connect the MIDI Out of the System-1 to the MIDI In of the LXR. I think you have to select the track you wa…
  • TxFilter selects which MIDI messages the LXR sends, RxFilter is which messages the LXR responds to. P = Program Change, C = Controller Change, N = Note, R = Realtime (MIDI Clock/sequencer start/stop etc.). The easiest way to set this up is to set b…
  • there are several reasons you might get a click, this eliminates one of them - again, it's not meant to be a useable firmware, just to show that the osc phase reset can be switched on and off. Things like setting attack to 0, using a filter, or any …
  • The data for all 8 pattern slots is load/saved at once, regardless of whether you are load/saving 'pattern', 'performance', or 'all'. When you are in 'perf' mode, pressing one of the 8 'select' buttons switches to a new pattern slot. Anything writte…
  • The cortex m7's have that fancy tft touch screen thingy...  "> I agree, it's ambitious - starting with just a mainboard that supports those functions might be a way to start out. Something to think about in years ahead. Cases for now
  • all 8 patterns (I will henceforth refer to them as sub-patterns) are stored in a single *.pat file, and the entire 8 are loaded when a pattern is loaded. The same data in a .pat is stored in '.all' and '.prf' also. If the sequencer is running when …
  • You would want this switchable globally. If you were to sequence a non drum voice and not send "note off" you will cause certain keyboards and things like midi to cv interfaces to hang. Yes, I remember I added some code to deal with how the lxr seq…
  • Just reposting this as a FYI in case it affects anybody adversely: Hi, When I control the LXR via an external sequencer the LXR steps are choked by the note/gate length coming in. This doesn't happen (obviously) on the LXR on board sequencer Is the…
  • Hi, When I control the LXR via an external sequencer the LXR steps are choked by the note/gate length coming in. This doesn't happen (obviously) on the LXR on board sequencer Is there a way to stop this happening? Or do I have to find a pad control…
  • ah! ok - I just rolled the .37 changes into my firmware mod. Let me know if that works for you!
  • Glad to hear things are working! Can you clarify - what is the 'oled display bug'? I use an oled display and have never seen a display-specific issue with my firmware. If there is something preventing it from working on certain displays, I'd sure li…
  • yeah, I agree, it would be speedier most of the time to have the sequencer re-arrange the steps to keep the timing the same when scaling but yeah, as you're thinking, it brings up a lot of problems. If the user is scaling to make the pattern longer,…
  • do you get notes or any other data from the midi output? make sure 'txf' is set to 'all', or at least something with 'R' in it.
  • youre missing more than that. what firmware version is this? sounds like you might be on a very old one.
