While keeping the main firmware source code secret, could elektron publish an api and allow users develop their own custom plug-in machines. Plugin machine files could be uploaded from CF and activated on the OT.
Not quite monome’s Aleph, but being able to create your own custom 6 knob OT Midi processing machines, Audio/sample processing machines and even simple wavetable synths would be a brilliant step for the OT.
for a free MMP/Pd patch that allows you to remap your 6 OT encoders individually to internal machine/MIDI CC parameters using an ios device and a MIDI interface.
the patch originally was intended to do other things, but the encoder remapping was easy to implement, so there it is… i will be expanding it this spring to allow multiple (6 or 8, depending on various factors) custom encoder groups/banks, instead of currently just one.
cheers
PS. read the readme.txt carefully and feel free to ask questions regarding setup.
The patch is all Puredata Vanilla, so everything should be a breeze to port back to Max.
FYI: I wrote the original version of the patch in maxforlive, and then adapted it for MobMuPlat. If you want to have a look at the M4L version, let me know.
