  2. 6 notes per chord in a future update ?

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    Posted

    How do the 32 predefined chords get in the SeqV4 ?

     

    Are they coded in the OS ?

     

    Maybe i could write my own chords in the OS ?

     

    A option to record own chords and save them would be fine for the future.

    Or a txt file where i can load the chords in some format into SEQV4.

     

    Just a few thoughts

  5. Replacing Compactflash card with Hdd ??

    in Miscellaneous

    Posted

    Hello

    Elektron´s Octatrack has a compactflash card to store the samples.

    Because big CF Card are expensive and do not have 200gb+ of storage i would like to replace the Compactflash Card with a IDE Harddisk.

    It seems that Compactflash Cards use the IDE standard.

    Would it possible to use a IDE to CF adapter (but the other way round) to connect a HDD to the Octatrack ?

    Maybe with such a adapter: http://www.pcengines.ch/cflash.htm

    I would need to create some sort of gender changer to connect the adapter to the CF slot of the Octatrack.

  6. USB (from synth) to midi sysex converter ?

    in Design Concepts

    Posted · Edited by moroe

    Hello

    Is it possible to do a usb to midi converter ?

    There appearing more and more synths which have usb and dont have a midi out port (only midi in)

    The problem is that i wanna send sysex dumps to other midi gear from these synths (waldorf blofeld,...) WITHOUT a computer.

    I also would like to get a small Akai LPK25 Keyboard (also with usb only) and connect it as a second keyboard to my hardware.

  9. MIDIbox SEQ V4 Release + Feedback

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    Posted

    Hello

    Are there some news about the implementation of the synth preset recording and sending feature ?

    Here some ideas and wishes:

    I would like to use single preset dumps and multi dumps.

    Each synth should have a dedicated preset dump folder with a single and a multi folder in it.

    If possible also Subdirectories for Soundcategories would be usful (pad,lead,bass...)

    Possibility to assign a preset dump folder to a track and its corresponding midi in and output.

    I also would like to send preset dump request messages to the synths, because some synths doesnt have

    a option to send dumps from the hardware manually (like the yamaha tx81z!!!!!).

    The dump request message could be placed in a txt file which lies in the single and multi folder.

    When pushing a button on the seqv4, the seqv4 should send a dump request to the synth.

    After the dump request was sent, the seqv4 should record incoming dumps.

    Then switch to the next synth and do it again.

    I would like to choose a preset in a folder and then use forward backward buttons to send them to

    the synth without to push an extra button (like the forward and backward buttons on a synth)

    If possible, during the sequencer is running.

    Possibility to save all used synth presets with the whole project/song.

    I know this will not be easy but it would be a complete set of features to work without computer.

    hello

    how will songmode organize the patterns ?

    is there a graphical display to see at which time which pattern is located ?

    something like this:

    songposition      01 02 03 04 : 05 06 07 08 : 09 10 11 12 : 13 14 15 16

    pattern              01 01 01 01 : 23 23 23 23 : 15 15 15 15 : 24 24 24 24

    and please please some news about progress of the seq v4 :)

    hi

    just another idea:

    would it be possible to link two MBHP_CORE_STM32 together ?

    this would be a solution to get 32 tracks.

    i know the new drumtrack concept, but  i wanna give each drum a seperate track because of the ability to mute each drum instrument with a button.

    the only problem is that both cores have to share the same displays, knobs and buttons.

    we could switch between the two cores with a dedicated button

    i would also like to use the midi ins and outs of the second MBHP_CORE_STM32 so no routing of midi data to the first core is needed

    another idea:

    simple controler automation in song mode to let a filter sweep over 4 patterns:

    just enter start position where the controler should start to raise and end position where controler should stop raising.

    there has also to be a option to define from which value the controler should start raising and at which value he shold stop.

    something like "controler 74, songpositionstart 4,atvalue 30//songpositionstop 8, atvalue 115"

    maybe also a option to thin out controler data.

  19. Midibox64 Midi Merger sysex quality ?

    in MIDIbox HUIs

    Posted

    All data arriving at the merger's input(s) during a SysEx message on the other input is put on hold and only forwarded once the SysEx message has been completed.

    is this the same with other mergers like the "midi solutions" merge box or "kenton" midi merge or "motu" midi timepiece ?

    or is this a midibox merger only behavior because of weak processing power ?

  20. Midibox64 Midi Merger sysex quality ?

    in MIDIbox HUIs

    Posted

    Hello

    I am planning to do Midibox64 controllers for each of my Synths (Virus C, Yamaha Fs1r,Waldorf Microwave Xt, Yamaha TX81z, Yamaha An1x,Yamaha An200,Roland V-Synth XT.

    How good is the quality of the midi merger from the Midibox 64 ?

    I wanna send midi notes and controlers from my sequencer through the midi merger and then the sysex commands from the Midibox itself to a synth.

    Is there a problem or do i get dropouts maybe ??

    Interesting - some days ago I considered to remove SysEx import/export option, as the SysEx page will be used for other purposes (see some of the previous postings), and much more data as ever before is used for each pattern, so that MIDI transfer is really too slow (ca. 1 second per pattern).

    So, do you really want to wait 4 seconds until all patterns have been updated?

    Does Triton Extreme support USB or TCP/IP (e.g. ftp access to MBSEQ?) - this would be a much faster option to exchange data (ca. 100 times faster)

    Best Regards, Thorsten.

    Hello Thorsten

    If each song would have a different ID (maybe the name of the song) then let the seqv4 export this ID as sysex message to the triton extreme.

    So i can store this ID with all my samples on the triton extreme and recall the whole project later.

    This would be some sort of song change message.

    When i send the ID from the triton extreme to the seqv4 , he has to load the song which is bound to the ID.

    If the seqv4 can use a big sd card it would never be necessary to backup all the songs and they will be always ready to be recalled.

  23. My SeqV5 dream layout

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    Posted

    Hello

    I am just dreaming away, but maybe one day it will be possible to have such a layout  :D

    4 rows of 16 rotary encoders, first 3 fixed layers, last switchable layer

    a 16x16 led push button matrix which can be used in different ways:

    1) each row is a track

    2) piano roll for selected track

    3) first 8 rows represent the 128 steps of a pattern

    4) pattern switches for live jamming

    Here is a photoshopped pic:

    You can connect the additional encoders and buttons directly to the core module, no need to build a second core module. Or are you planning to add LED rings? In this case it could make sense to off-load the core.

    It will be slow, but you asked for it...

    If you would configure MB64E encoders in incremental mode, this wouldn't happen.

    Only exception: you are planning to add LED rings, so that MB64E has to know the absolute values.

    hello thorsten

    1) i dont need led rings and the whole Midibox64ev2 if i can add additional 32 encoders and 16 buttons to the seqv4 core module :)

    these are really great news !!!!!

    the displays of the MBSeqV4 have to jump to the velocity page if i move one of the additional velocity encoders (as example)

    2) my goal is to save all sound and sequencer data of my hardware to one hardware piece and working without computer.

    storing all data on my triton extreme is one solution.

    but if you really can manage that the seqv4 can request, send and store all sound data as a whole project file, it would be no problem to skip the sysex export, because the triton extreme or later my m3 can send its data per sysex to the seqv4.

    impatient greets :)
