Eclipse is weird, you need to mess around with build clean, and rebuild indexes (or some other magical combo) before it creates the eclipse make files. I never could figure out exactly what fixed this. Seems to happen only if you haven't built yet.
Yes, you should be able to record all tracks at the same time using the custom firmware. And if you set them all to the same channel, then it would make sense to specify a specific note for each track (instead of 'Any').
The official FW still has a…
Ok, I went back and looked through the code as it is now in the custom firmware, and this is the logic:
When we get an incoming note, we check to see if it's channel matches the "global" midi channel. If it does, then the note is sent to the active …
The midi note setting is like an override. If it's set to a note (ie it's not set to 'Any') it means that the voice will only respond to that note and will only output that note. This is useful when you want to trigger all voices from one midi chann…
It transmits a program change message when you switch to a different subpattern. So it transmits PC 1 to 8 as you switch those sub-patterns. The Shruthi is interpreting this as a program change and loading a different program probably. You can turn …
Announcing new custom firmware. No major features at this point, I mainly wanted to get in sync with the new official firmware before I do anything new:
- Merge against Sonic Potions 0.32 firmware to receive Sonic Potions changes and fixes
- Track L…
Right now the program change is tied to pattern change on the LXR. It would be possible to fix it to have it change the kit. If I were to implement it, I'd probably have bank select determine whether to switch pattern or switch kit. Either that or h…
@prontold If you set up the pattern chaining and start recording it will automatically record on the new pattern as it moves there. So eg you could chain all 8 patterns and record an 8 bar melody in one shot.
To do this, go into perf mode, and then…
Can you try turn your midi channel on each voice to 16, set your keyboard to channel 1, set your master midi channel on the LXR to 1 (in global settings) and then make sure you can still hear your LXR making noises when you play your keyboard (you s…
@Dayflight, these two features are available in the custom firmware as "performance" (stores pattern, bpm and kit) and "all" (stores pattern, kit, bpm and all other settings)
@Whiteherbman I record my keyboard onto tracks all the time. I'm not sure what your settings are. Make sure your keyboard is transmitting on the same channel as the master channel set on the lxr, hit play to start the sequencer then hit rec, and sta…
On the cortex side, each track is stored in memory. For each track, there are 16x8 notes, and for each note we store pitch, velocity, probability, 2 automation values, and 2 automation targets (byte each). Repeat that for 8 patterns. So that amounts…
Thanks guys. I'm sure the synare works the same as the synsonics if they both have a piezo pad (but then, what do I know :-)
It seems like it should work.
@prontold, the midi filtering applies only to stuff generated by the LXR or received by the LXR (ie. not applied to midi thru data). Currently CC data lacks some implementation (it will receive CC, but not transmit CC).
@ceasless good point. I'm w…
to follow up on @erwanone's comment: If the channel sent by your keyboard matches the "master" channel (global setting) and also matches one or more channels for different voices it will play on the active voice as well as those other voices.
As fo…
Thanks Julian. I didn't find a schematic on their site, but did find this:

I also don't have anything to trigger. I was thinking of this kit:
http://www.helensson.com/synare-3-kit.html
Which uses a piezo disk as a sensor. Does anyone know how it could be made compatible with the trigger outs?
