  • No. The coarse parameter affects only the pitch of the drum sound on the unit. The note parameter on the individual steps affects the midi note that is sent (and also alters the pitch of the drum sound).
  • I've been trying to figure this out myself. The problem is that the pitch seems to change depending on the mod setting.
  • Thanks for the comments. No secrets here... I'm sending the LXR to two outputs. The kick drum is bussed to the big muff pi pedal (which gives it that energy) and then to the kaoss pad, the rest of the drum sounds are bussed to the Kaoss pad. I'm …
  • @julian Great stuff. Hopefully nothing I've done is too cryptic. @Mobius The midi channel in the mix menu has only 16 values. It might be in the off position initially (if your settings were saved with that value). I wanted to add an option of turn…
  • @tsv if you are browsing github with your web browser, make sure you follow the firmware.bin link and then go and click on the "raw" button and save it that way (as opposed to right clicking the firmware.bin link and save as). @sackley85 it will d…
  • @Möbius Thanks for pointing that one out. I've fixed it and pushed it up. @mokomo this does not include the sample upload. Julian hasn't pushed the code for that to his branch yet, so I can't merge it to mine.
  • I like both of these. Good work guys.
  • +1 for the text file. We are all techies here, having built our own units, so we can certainly edit text files. However, you'd want to make sure you only put in options that the user would not have any need to change while on a gig.
  • Have you tried using the stock 0.24a firmware? (not the one that lets you load samples)
  • I love your pot caps!
  • Not to beat a dead horse, but I found this thread on KVR which seems to explain pretty well why note on with velocity 0 is used as note off: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=291892 (second comment down in the thread)
  • FWIW I fixed this issue in my fork of the firmware, and sent Julian a patch a while ago which hopefully he will incorporate at some point, or do his own fix (I send a NoteOff before the next NoteOn as well as when the pattern stops). Most synths rec…
  • This little guy was one of the best investments I made. It's powered by the midi bus as well so no extra wall warts. That said, I don't think that adding midi soft thru would be that hard to add to the LXR: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MI…
  • Go into mix settings for each voice, and set the midi channel to 16, and make sure your other gear is not listening on that channel.
  • Thats too cool! Thanks for sharing.
  • Pardon my ignorance, but what kind of tool does one use to do this (make your own case)?
  • @borfo I think that is a safe assumption. Julian seems to have the code pretty logically separated. @julian The firmware image builder has some minor changes to make it work with gcc (remove the stdafx.h and change the tchar and tmain stuff to char…
  • Glad it worked for you. The easiest type of customization to make would be to modify strings that are displayed. You could do this without any great in depth knowledge of the code, and your results would be visible. Also, you don't have to worry abo…
  • I was also thrown off by this anomaly.
  • Ok, that seems to be keeping the voice from going to 0. However, what seems to be happening now is that you need to actually set the knob before it takes effect. For example, voice is set to 1, I change the mod dest to COA, and nothing happens, howe…
  • I don't think you can brick the LXR. There is a bootloader that doesn't change, always boots first and will not write over, or corrupt itself. Worst case is to just reflash with a new image.
  • I have not noticed the crash since I started setting the voice number first before touching the destinations, so it could very well be.
  • Looks great. nice pics. Another minor issue... From the web store, clicking "home" or the sonic potions logo just takes you to the webstore. I would expect it to take you back to sonic-potions.com (but thats just me)
  • I would HIGHLY recommend this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0790NM8601 I've had this one for a long time and it's seen me through a lot of projects, and is still on it's first tip (which looks like new). Having adjustable …
  • Thanks. Yes, it seems to pair nicely with the shruthi, and I'm hoping to see more youtube vids as people get and finish their kits. I like to see how others use the same gear that I have, in their own way. I've learned that one can never have enoug…
  • I also get a crash in the LFO. I think the problem might be that initially, the target voice for the LFO is set to 0 (which is an invalid voice). When you start playing with the destinations, it crashes. Another issue with the LFO is that the list o…
