Thanks for speedy response, the metric I was using was a 120 sample sample chain of breakbeat loops cut up in to 15 8 segment loops, I have really difficulty just getting a plain loop to play even when I just program 8 8th notes and p-lock the sample start to 0-7 using function to try and snap the offset.
I can be holding down a step key press function, slowly rotate the e encoder and still get what sounds like fine grain sample start points rather than the old style locked ones.
Haven’t tried monitoring NRPN, the collider app for iOS hasn’t updated to reflect the 1.70 changes so just going off my ears but it definitely sounds off unless I turn the knob all the way to zero it before pressing and holding both encoder in and the function button which doesn’t seem to be intended behaviour.
Sample start/end doesn’t work correctly for me in the update. I submitted a bug report and posted in the forum.
It might only be broken on MKI.
Push-turn moves by integers but does not snap and is slower than expected, while Function-turn snaps to integer but is way too sensitive and updates very slowly.
I grew up with the C64, but usually I don’t draw from with chip tunes associated aesthetics in my (Rhythmic Industrial) music … However, SY CHIP IS DA BOMB for a ton of things …
MEGAfm is amazing… love mine to death. I bought a TherapSID and it was also amazing but very hard to get good results for me so I sold it just before the 1.70 was announced and spent the money on a Rytm mk2 and could have been happier since the sy chip is much easier to use. Anyway just get the MEGAfm
Great to hear you like it! Yeah, even though the focus was to tick the chiptune boxes, it is so fun to see and listen to people doing all kinds of weird things with it
sry I was meaning Blast Beats. But I’m not rich, I can only afford Rytm itself because a) I got it a few hundreds off and b) it also erases my wish for RD-9 / 909 clone + Boss BX mixer (case in point) …
Hi, I keep overwriting kits that I have already saved. Did the update introduce destructive editing? I really loved how I could many variations and resave as needed as I went along. I’m struggling to understand how the kit saving works now and have already lost lot of work! I am considering reverting the OS because keeping work is more important than the few new features I actually use. Love this machine soooooooo much, this is just really frustrating : (
I use a different kit for each pattern, usually saving the kit from the previous pattern and kit slot into the next pattern and kit slot, so I can make edits to the kit over just that pattern. Not sure if this was changed over the update, I don’t think so, but for me, keeping one kit to each pattern keeps it easy.
I think I get what you’re saying but when I make changes to a duplicate pattern’s kit it changes the kit for the original as well. So you just save new kits for each pattern regardless of whether it’s a variation?
This for me combined with the destructive editing has been an issue lol
A new copied pattern will transfer a relationship from the source pattern … you would need to assign a different kit or copy the source kit and edit.
Each pattern can have 1 kit, many patterns can share one kit. To assign a new kit you need to actively do so or have actively done so before.
But copying a pattern into a slot with a prior kit association will bring over the new kit ‘tag’, so if you want variations copy pattern then save a copy of the donor kit
Another nuance is the saved project’s state and the working project buffer’s state. You really ought to apply your typical workflow to a series of tests on a new project and test out all the permutations of how you work to figure out how to save what you want. Just make simple patterns and kit tweaks and see what works after you move around and change projects etc
I’m talking about it automatically saving over a saved kit. When I start to make iterations to a kit that I’ve already saved it automatically updates the saved version for some reason. When I try to revert it by loading the kit I had intentionally saved that no longer works. I was able to recall kits I intentionally saved in the previous OS. This is a subtle thing but totally ruins making interations a the same kit. I know how kits and patterns work though thanks
