MCRP v16: "sum total" ^ that's my name proposal if we go with incorporating monome_sum into our songs. as mentioned earlier, though, it's more of an individual showcase centered around one app, rather than a collaborative remix…

@kineticmonkey: we did that back in 2011 for mcrp v10. i think that was my first mcrp. i like @artfwo's water/autumn ideas. very inspiring, and would be easier than obtaining busker recordings--and clearing said recordings for reuse.

i haven't run into anything on midi-mapping or binding keys from within mlr, but as a stopgap measure: you should be able to ReWire mlr's audio output into your DAW. from within mlr, select options -> dsp -> driver -> ad_rewire. s…

most excellent. laid-back, analog-ish grooves, lots of idm flavoring. well done, sir.

@gli i've been interested in aleph for awhile. so far, the small pool of owners/developers have gravitated toward synthesis, CV, and effects applications. the blackfin chip is very well suited for those types of tasks, so it's natural to s…

i would love to see a sampling/midi-focused version of the aleph, compared to the current synthesis/effects/cv version. i have an mpc1000, and it's good for certain tasks, but i would like to see a more flexible grid+standalone device pairing …

java is installed and working correctly; verified with the bitwig studio beta i've been running for a few months. here's the output from the max window. i think the bit about not finding serialosc.maxpat can be ignored, since the serialos…

problem: stereo files only play in mono. this is the same problem that folks have reported as far back as 3-4 years ago, with older mlrv versions. i'm hitting it in the latest 2.4 (2.3004), with max runtime 5.1.9, on OSX 10.8.5. i've ver…

gridfest 2.0? yes, please! welcome back, and thanks for the audio and video!

that looks like the thing livid instruments has been helping with. they've done some IG/twitter pics recently, i believe.

thanks, guys! @raja, appreciated. not much can be done; hearing aids only work until my nerves degenerate past a certain point. and in my research, i found out that no one's really making any HAs with mics or DSPs tuned to music freqs & fi…

the demo video makes me wish i could play the cello -- that, or have a couple of pet cellists to collaborate with from time to time.

rove could possibly run with a bit of porting, since is written in C already. however, like every other mlr-like app it's designed to load samples into RAM at startup, so it would need refactoring to read from the sd card much more often.

@zebra: thanks for the detailed responses! (and congrats on the culmination on all your efforts.) to clarify, by "userspace" i meant all the front-facing software, like management utilities, plugins, that sort of thing. however folks wou…

@Yorke: yup, so it seems -- and that was a concern i raised in an earlier comment. the last thing i usually want to do is learn to program in a low-level language. i'd rather just make music. but if there aren't any apps that do what i wa…

@Yorke: max/msp runs only on x86 and ppc processors inside windows and mac -- the aleph has neither chip, and doesn't run either OS. so unless someone comes up with a ridiculously lightweight and complete emulation environment to run on the bl…

1. i take it the aleph supports class-compliant udb-midi devices, such as an mpd? i can imagine using this thing hooked up to a monome, mpd18, and nanokontrol. 2. can those patch points on the top of the device be looped back into each other? sim…

really interested in this; ready to preorder one right now. but...three concerns: 1. application support. i remember that at launch, the arc didn't really offer any apps, and it still doesn't seem to have taken off the way the monome did,…

i figured out the sample input issue, but in the process uncovered a bug: after recording an instrument into any input, its playback speed is ALWAYS set to 0.5. everything starts at half speed...why is that? it's annoying to have to go to the …

i haven't seen this in linux nor ever even heard of it being a problem. the various distros are quick to patch up such issues, which are then sent upstream to kernel.org to get things fixed in the mainline kernel for all linux variants, not jus…

i know what it is! or at least, some of what it is. i was given a few details some months ago after a buddy attended a demo of it at some music/academic event. plus, there's a pic of what seems to be the completed knobby prototype...if you know…

i'll put the linux drive back in the laptop and attempt to reinstall supercollider...see if i can get this stuff to work. last time i tried one of your supercollider apps, it mostly worked, so i'm fairly upbeat about this new thing.

i've seen him with a 64...i assume he still has it.

@galapagoose / @Myr: good point on merely using max to present the steps an app would have to take; developing a tool for each os & env from there should be straightforward. on the multiple app use case: pages and griddle both make it possible …

platform lock-in. win/mac-only, and requires max. unless this is specifically only to address limitations within max itself (and using that environment with monomes), is there a more cross-platform way to do this? i always imagined something like a…

yeah, a top row control button would do it, or midi controller such as an mpd or nanokontrol--since you'd probably already be using one anyway. rove (mlr in C) does song changes with the top two right buttons, to page forward and backward betw…

don't forget that there are puredata and C mlr clones for linux, which are perfectly capable of running standalone. also, i think @murray has setup his Candor app to run headless, standalone, on a small linux device. terminal scripting is pret…

a seriously good record. a different direction for the sound, but most welcome.

@declutter that was my first thought, but even after turning off quant, no change. it's especially noticeable when wading through submenus and even resizing the mlrv window, though it also happens when playing with just one or two samples loade…

sweet! i always wanted to dig into the older stuff before "let." thanks, ro!
