The weather was good, anyway:

There is an update (v3_4d):

o In Slave Mode the sequencer won't switch to Master mode when the Play button is pushed.
This automatic switching is only available in Auto Mode anymore

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hey there,

sorry to resurect this old thread, but I only recently uploaded the most recent version of the SEQ3 OS (3.4d) with a few changes for me (J5 gates enabled etc).

It seems the 'sync to measure' throws the pattern out less than a step.. I also noticed that if i put a note at the start, the note gets stuttered, if you know what i mean?

I do dig the sync to measure, because you can throw in any odd timing and know that in say 64 steps it'll get thrown back in sync.

TK, I can imagine you are mainly concentrating on V4 (Which i'm can't wait to take for a spin) , but if you have the time, please re-visit this and see if you can fix up the 'sync to measure'

(That is unless it's something to do with me being an idiot and missing something)

Kind regards
Mike

Hi Mike,

interesting! You and me seem to be the only guys who are using this feature (it's one of my most favourite ones).

According to the svn log, it wasn't working since 298 days, 21 hours, 10 minutes (it was working in v4 of course ;))

Fixed in v3.4e

Best Regards, Thorsten.

I hope you are not getting annoyed with my questions etc TK.. but I've got another. ;]

I use the "All" button quite a bit... (Well, my sequencers are at the hub of my setup)

I've found myself, sometimes selecting a track that does not have a step in it while the "All" button is enabled. This currently switches on that step, but switches off all the other active steps.

Is it possible that I can deactivate this sort of "inversion" of the steps?

I realise I can should just make sure that the "All" button is off before I select a empty step, but it does seem counter intuative that pressing a un-active step would switch off all the active steps when "All" is on.

As always, the kindest of regards
Mike

This feature was a special request by Wilba, I could make it optional if desired.

In order to decide about the default behaviour, I would like to know, how many other users like/dislike this function (all triggers inverted when ALL button pressed) - opinions?

Best Regards, Thorsten.

I like the inversion behaviour of the ALL button very much, as I can quickly set up a new track:

1- I start with an empty track
2- Push the all button
3- push any GP button -> all steps get set
4- I use the data wheel to find the right base note, chord, or druminstrument
5- I push again any GP button -> all steps get swiched off
6- Push the all button again

-> Now i built the melodic or rythmic structure by swiching on certain steps and increasing or decreasing
    values with the encoders

Best regards Gridracer

I don't like this function. I have the same 'problems' like Futureman.

[Futureman]

I spoke to my mate (who I helped make his seq) and he doesn't like the inversion feature either... (Honest.. lol)

My main gripe is that it doesn't seem to make sense to switch off all the active steps.. if I have a nicely crafted riff playing, why would I want to turn them all off and fill the blanks with C's ?

I can see that there is a potential time for wanting to flood the whole pattern with the same note (as mentioned by Gridracer)
Maybe this could be done while holding down "All" and pressing another button such as "Layer A" etc? Not sure.. for me, I just slide my finger along the step buttons.. only takes a second.

Kind Regards
Mike.

hello,

i have the same "cursor position" thing on version 3.4 f, also the datawheel is not working anymore.
it changes a couple values but not keep them, it looks like it runs through.

of course i did not make a backup of the old version, that was on there...
can i download the older versions like 3.3 or so somwhere  ???

[TK.]

An older version won't help

Doublepost!

Hi,

I've updated to 3.4e from 3.4a and Sync to measure feature still behaves weird like Futureman described in his post.

Can anybody check to confirm this?

Thanks,
koki.

[TK.]

Wasn't this issue fixed in v3.4e? I tested it myself, and futureman probably as well?

If there is still an issue with this function, I need to know more details how to reproduce it.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

[kokiPsiho]

Sorry TK, all is fine. I have mess up my hex files.

Thanks,
koki.

[TK.]

Alright - hope that this doesn't happen again when I release v3.4f this weekend ;)
(it will contain the latest improvement requests)

Best Regards, Thorsten.

[nuke]

any news on 3.4f ?...are you going to implement the "global shuffle grid" already?  :D

[TK.]

V3.4f is finally available.

From the ChangeLog:

  o built for MIOS V1.9g (or higher) to support new encoder types.
    Rotary encoders won't work with older MIOS versions!

  o Groove function now takes the global step has reference instead of the local step.
    This results into better results on a non-linear step progression.

  o Bank of group #1-#4 can now be selected via CC#116..CC#119

  o due to various user requests, the previously introduced "set/clear all trigger"
    function has been disabled by default.
    It can be enabled again with the DEFAULT_BEH_ALL_WITH_TRIGGERS switch in setup_*.asm
    0: only parameter layers are modified by ALL function
    1: all trigger and parameter layers are modified by ALL function

Please update your MIOS installation before uploading this new version!

Best Regards, Thorsten.
