  4. Discussion about Preset Patterns for MBSEQ V4

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    Posted

    This is great! I was thinking to request something like this after upgrade to new core.

    This will ease usage for sure. I have few friends who love to work on mbseq but I noticed that setting track event page (midi ch, port, etc.) is hardest thing to understand for them.

    I do it in few seconds because I know connections. Named presets are great. Excellent work TK!

    Thanks,

    koki.

  9. RFC: MBSEQ V4 percussion tracks

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    support for 16 tracks only

    I liked separate drum and synth tracks idea more but I agree that 16 tracks are enough

    # a drum track consists of up to 16 instruments, stored in 16 layers

    # in distance to a common track, each instrument has its own set of triggers (e.g. Trigger Layer A:Gate/B:Accent/C:Roll)

    # each layer can store 2 additional values per step, mapable to velocity/CCs/PitchBender, and especially recordable (e.g. by tweaking the appr. GP encoders in live recording mode)

    This will work, I like the idea

    If somebody wants to try out the user interface: I can send you a MacOS based emulation .app

    Please do :)

  10. RFC: MBSEQ V4 percussion tracks

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    Posted

    I'm for separation of drum and synth tracks. I really like the idea of combining 16 tracks in single pattern.

    In MBSEQV4, I could provide 4 percussion groups, which results into 64 additional tracks played in parallel to 16 "full featured" tracks used for synths and loopbacks

    Does this mean seq would play 8 pattern groups in parallel? If so maybe adding a page to mute each each pattern group in addition to track mute page.

    I personally think this is biggest weakness of MBSEQ. I never use Note/Note/Note layer, which I suppose is meant for drum programing, because they all share same gate which is confusing for me. Maybe I'm using it wrong way but it's just not easy to use.

    Can you give more info about naming drum instruments feature?

    One thing i noticed in drum synths is they mostly follow General MIDI Percussion Key Map or each sound (drum, snare, toms..) needs just one note to trigger. Maybe edit page in drum mode could be made in such way that pressing GP button would set one constant predefined note and encoder could be use to modify selected parameter layer. You could also display different LCD page for drum mode e.g. each step could be represented by o/* so there's more space to display other info as well like parameter value. Im not sure if this make sense, correct me if I'm missing something.

    Hi,

    I'm sorry for delaying to post. Here's some info about my seq.

    Panel is 1mm steel done on waterjet which didnt turn out so good so it needed some filing. Enclosure is wooden done by my friend. GP buttons are best Ive ever saw. They're from some Japanese company called Miyama. I dont know exact part, their website is disaster. Beside them im using standard DT6 buttons and Soundwell encoders.

    I took me almost two years to bulid this. I wanted to make my pcbs so i had to learn eagle. Im very happy how it turned out, its solid and worked from first time.

    Many thanks to Sasha who helped completing this project and of course to Mr. Klose who made all this possibile.

    Regards,

    koki.

  12. Improved GM5 BOARD 5x5 EXPANDED

    Does this work with Vista 64 :P not much does :'( I need to get a dual boot with XP 32.

    I have Vista x64 and I can confirm it works. This is great because I have M-Audio Midisport and they didn't release x64 drivers despite their promise. Instead they released identical product and named it Midisport Anniversary Edition ??? which is class compliant like GM5. They suck.

    Hi,

    I would advise to look for another distributor. Last year I bought 100pcs of 3FTL6 from Elproma Elektronika (http://www.elproma.com.pl).

    Here are quotes I got in march 2007, prices are in euros.

    3FTL6 0,45

    1D 0,09

    1E excl. lens 0,09

    1E incl. lens 0,21

    1S - heights 16.0 - 19.0 - 22.5 0,09

    3FTL are noisy ones and those prices are for 100pcs. I can attach enitre PDF with prices for all MEC products I got back then but it would be better to contact Elproma and ask for more recent prices.

    Regards,

    koki.

  19. LCD 20x4 Crystalfontz : CHANGED to OrientDisplay_Red_Negative

    if the black around the letters is RGB(0,0,0) it's definitely a fake =)

    it's probably web optimized, there is no 16M colors on that image

    About those Orient negative LCDs...well, I`ve seen non-photoshopped image, and I must say that it really is not far from image presented here

    Sorry but I don't believe that for a second.... Even the PLEDs don't look that good!

    he said it's not far, and he's right

    edit: in last picture I managed to set camera not to pickup and amplify redish background but still not perfect. this is how it looks in daylight, background is almost completely black. when there is complete dark in the room you can see a slight red on background coming trough.
