  1. Yes I was hoping that some of the features of AC Sensorizer could be brought in to MBCV. I believe it was even mentioned in this thread? Super :smile:I understand we won't be able to modulate parameters without some quantisation at 1Khz, but for certain operations 1Khz is fine! Looking forward to what you come up with.
  2. Could I ask approximately what sample rate was possible? Would this limitation also affect other MB based projects reading the analogue ins, for example if ACSensorizer was ported to MIOS32? Sure, totally understood. Great, I'll add some trigger ins to my panel :smile: OK that makes sense, I'll stick with 1x AOUT + MBCV2.0 for the nice fast synth engines and use my second AOUT on the MBSEQ :D Cheers
  3. OK thanks for the info, sent you an PM to discuss a bit more.
  4. Hi, just wondering: How difficult will it be to add the analogue ins to MBCV2.0 and have them available in the mod matrix? Ditto DINs? Any plans to support multiple AOUTs ala MBNG? I plan on adding this to my next panel of modular synth, so want to work out which ins/outs I should plan on being available before drilling!
  5. Hiya, just a very gentle and friendly bump to see if you made any progress with this :)
  6. Got mine yesterday as well, thanks for a really well run group buy :)
  7. I agree with this, it will not be very ergonomic IMO. I find having the displays and the encoders spread out on the Wilba panel really encourages two handed usage of MBSeq :)
  8. Wow, great documentation on the Wiki :thumbsup: I just added myself to the list for 2 PCBs. Thanks for offering to do this! +1 to this.
  9. Hi TK, As I mentioned at the beginning, I'm also not 100 percent sure about this. I started thinking this after recently setting up testing my first AOUT module with the MBSEQ :) But I also I recently discussed this with a local Eurorack owner and he referenced this module: http://www.analoguehaven.com/intellijeldesigns/uscale/ which specifically deals with a 10V pitch range CV. I just posted a message over at muffwiggler's to ask some of the modular synth experts over there. I think they will know it much better than me! David
  10. Hi NorthernLightsX. Maybe I was not clear in my post, sorry! To put it another way, based on this statement: My understanding is that if you run the opamps from +/-6V then you can't generate the 0-10V which we want for controlling VCOs. Personally I'd stick with running the AOUT from +- 12V to +-15V, which in my experience is what most analogue synthesizers are using. Hopefully that clarifies what I meant :)
  11. I'm no expert with modular synths, so apologies in advance if this is nonsense! But, I thought the 1v/oct standard has a range of 0-10v. If the opamps are running off of +/-5v then doesn't that mean you can't get 0-10v from the AOUT? I already have 1 original AOUT and personally I was planning on doing 4 channels as nonbalanced i.e. 0-10v, for controlling the pitch of VC oscillators, and 4 channels balanced i.e. +/-5v for doing LFO / modulation type tasks. If the new board can't get above +5v, doesn't it mean the new AOUT board would be limited in this sense?
  12. Arrived safely in CZ yesterday, cheers Freddy :thumbsup:
  13. Great idea. 1 x MB6582 and 2 x MBSeq for me please! I'm in Praha :)
  14. Hi Thorsten, Thanks for the info. Typically, after 2 days of this behaviour - today when I turned on MBSeq it now remembers the settings :rolleyes: I double checked the SD card and yes I have the MBSEQ_GC.V4 file and it has the settings for the CV page. Sorry for the false alarm :)
  15. Hi all, I finally got my AOUT hooked up to my MBSeq v4, and it worked first time :thumbsup: I have run the configuration using the CV Config page and all seems OK. The only weird thing is that every time I turn on the MB Seq, it has forgotten my settings i.e. which Module I have selected PRng per CV channel etc. From the MBSEQ_HW.V4 file there is a mention of a file called MBSEQ_CV.V4, but I don't have that on my SD Card. And I can't find it in svn! Would this be why my settings are not being saved? If so, where can I find that file, or should it be created automatically by MB Seq? Thanks in advance David
  16. actually scratch that bit, I realised today that the skip is created more by the program changes I was sending from the Mixer. MBSeq is perfectly in time without them :)
  17. Hi Tk and everyone else, I've been playing with the recent 4.059 upgrade and +1 thanks for the amazing Euclid generator! Recently I've tried to create an entire track on the MBSeq using the Phrase mode and I have some questions: When setting a group of patterns in the Song / Phrase screen, the default is that the Seq uses 1:A1, 2:A1, 3:A1, 4:A1. Is there a way to modify the x in the X:A1 patterns, other than using the Select > Take over current patterns function? I run my MBSeq synced to my DAW as a Midi clock slave. When using the GP buttons in Phrase mode to switch between sets of patterns, is there a way to synchronise the switching between patterns to the beat? I tried a couple of recordings today and experimented with the SyncChange and RATOPC options but the Phrases seem to jump immediately when I press the GP (so that the MIDI synced recording in my DAW ends up off the beat)... Thanks in advance David
  18. Hi Bob, I'm afraid I don't use Ableton, so I can't comment on that. But one thing you can try is to enter Edit mode in the Ctrlr VSTi (right click the panel, select Edit mode from memory). Then go through the parameters bar on the right of the Edit screen and look for the MIDI Ins and Outs as well as the channel selected for the VSTi, make sure they are what you expect. mk
  19. Wow! That is excellent, thanks for sharing your work :thumbsup: I've only had time to quickly fire it up and check connectivity to my hardware, but that worked fine. I will spend a bit of time with it and try to provide some feedback.... other than wow!
  20. Wow great news Eric! I for one was really hoping we would get access to CopperLAN :) Looking forward to what TK can squeeze out of this.....
  21. Doh, sorry I missed that :whistle: Thanks for the solution!
  22. TK, firstly I want to say thanks a lot for the Ctrlr editor for MBFM, I've been using it a lot over the last week and it really does help to integrate the synth into my DAW :) But unfortunately I seem to have a problem editing the drums. I'm using Ctrlr 965 on Mac OS X (10.6.8) and I tried both as a VSTi inside of Cubase Artist 6 and standalone. I click the drum page button on the left of the Ctrlr Editor and the drum controls show up. But nothing makes any difference to the synth (the normal Inst1 page is working fine to edit a normal instrument though). I checked the MIDI which is being sent out and I noticed that the <type> byte is different between the InsX pages and the drums page. This is what I see in the Ctrlr MIDI monitor when I move a control on the inst page: f0 00 00 7e 49 01 06 08 00 14 01 f7 This is what is sent from moving a control on the drum page: f0 00 00 7e 49 01 06 18 00 10 04 f7 Is the 18 at the 8th position correct? Does anyone else have the drum page working? Also, I noticed that when I use Ctrlr as a VST, the Ins1 to 4 and drum buttons open up the correct pages. But in the standalone those buttons don't make a change! Maybe it is a Ctrlr bug, but I thought I'd mention it here as well.... David
  23. Wow, just read through the docs, that sounds like an amazing addition. Great work guys :thumbsup: I won't be able to test it for a few weeks, but I look forward to it already.
  24. I can safely say using a Continuum to control some of my Kyma sounds over OSC was one of the most fun afternoons of my multitouch sound making life :) Unfortunately I was just using it in a friends studio. Personally I didn't think much of the built in sounds, but I know others who use them happily. As high bandwidth multitouch controllers go, I've not used anything more expressive yet. Lippold has good detailed explanation of the inner workings here: http://www.hakenaudio.com/Continuum/html/overview/MecDesign.html I thought about some experiments with hall effect sensors and so on, but in the end for my DIY efforts to get a similar effect, I'm experimenting with force sensitive resistors. You should also keep an eye of Madrona labs sound plane and what Roger Linn has up his sleeve..... oh and http://openmtproject.sourceforge.net/ are doing some interesting things as well. These are interesting times in the field of NIME :)
