5 or 6 is quite a few compared to other eurorack samplers, though this doesn’t seem to have the ability to pull from a pool of samples, which is fine.
What does the CV position out do?
Also thank you for being the arbiter of information right now lol
The CV position output renders the position of sample playback in CV. ZOIA’s internal CV scaling is 0 to 1, so if a sample is 1 second long, when it is at 250 milliseconds, the CV output would be .25, at 500 milliseconds it would be .5, etc…
Generative possibilities are many!
Can’t wait to see what you’ve come up with for it, always inspiring
Yes, it would be lovely to have a very large range and make the Zoia into a near standalone noodle box with plenty of samples in the library so different moods when you sit down with it and you have a lot of choice.
Perhaps this is expandable.
Still, pretty excited about the potential of this otherwise.
And infinity can sometimes be constraining
I don’t actually own a ZOIA yet. I’m seriously considering the Euroburo version with it’s dedicated desktop case. I’m waiting until after NAMM though before I buy anything, just in case they unveil a version with (hopefully) a row of at least four knobs on it!
If no such unit materialises at NAMM then I’ll go for the Euroburo and its dedicated desktop case!
I don’t know anything with absolute certainty, but I would be fairly surprised if such a thing were unveiled at NAMM.
Hey, I’m on r/ZOIA and the ZOIA Discord. I don’t need to try answering questions about this nonsense. Find me on one of those places, if you want to talk more.
Edit: I meant “around” this nonsense, i.e. the pointless argument unfolding around the discussion of the firmware.
Ahhhh…. The internet….
Anyways, thanks again @chm_jacques for answering questions
So I’m not sure if this is a bug or maybe something is wrong with my unit. I connected my op-1 field to Euroburo and when I play one or two notes everything is ok. When I play say a chord everything gets quiet before any sound comes through. This is just in general nothing to do with the sampler.
Edit
Actually I think it’s because op-1 isn’t modular… it isn’t hot enough.
Inputs should be good for audio and modular sources. I just checked with my OP-1F and it sounds fine. (I am running a mono cable to it as I don’t currently have a stereo 3.5mm split to two mono 3.5mm cable).
Have you tried different patches on the OP-1? There’s a modulation source that uses an E shape (edit: in the field it’s in the Element LFO and it’s labeled as SUM, E shape thing is on the original) that does things when more keys are pressed on the OP-1. Maybe it’s ducking the volume or something in the patch?
Yep I tried different patches. That’s weird. I’ll try it again after a cat nap…thx for your reply and checking though.
Sorry for being a dick last night towards @basehead617. Apologies! Totally uncalled for behaviour on my part.
sorry I went off too, I just came in to ask a question and suddenly felt like I’m getting shit about something unrelated I wasn’t even aware of lol - water under the bridge now…
Any link please ?
And thanks for all informations you gave, can’t find anything elsewhere…
my bad!
You’ve already linked to an example of it a couple of times – it was the one in the shortform videos:
Probably too long ago…
I had to register.
Have also to check your patch !
Too late to open the computer…
Had fun tonight slicing a sample with the Zoia. 
I can send you a patch I wrote during beta-testing that you might like (or might not!)
Here are the patch notes I wrote for it:
007_zoia_By_The_Slice.bin (32 KB)
“By the Slice”
Record a sample with the red button in the middle of the control page (or load a sample into the sampler on the second page).
“Analyze” the sample with the Analyze button in the bottom left corner. You can choose to analyze the sample by transient (onset detector) or threshold (envelope follower --> comparator w/ hysteresis); there’s a pushbutton to select between the two. There’s also a Sensitivity control that affects the onset detector and the envelope follower’s hysteresis, and a Threshold control that sets the threshold for the envelope follower.
If you want to try a different analysis, use the Reset button to reset everything.
When you analyze a sample, the buttons across the top will begin to populate. Each button represents a slice, produced by the analysis.
So, basically it splits a sample up into smaller sections, based on transients or sustained periods of sound.
Press a button to play a slice. Or use CV or MIDI – when using either of these make sure the first button is selected, or the scaling will be off. When using MIDI, make sure you press the MIDI button in the bottom left corner.
CV:
CV in 1 – 0-5V, slice selection
CV in 2 – 0-10V, trigger playback
CV in 3 – 0-10V, loop (expects a gate)
MIDI:
C4 = first slice, D#5 = last slice
Channel 1 (to change channel find the MIDI note in module on the pages labeled MIDI)
Fun extras:
Loop button = will loop the slice as long as the button is held (or a gate is held via MIDI, or using the CV input)
Loop Latch button = will loop slices until the latch is released (if the Loop button is on)
Equal Slices = this button will bypass the transient/threshold detection and just chop the sample up into 16 equal slices
Edit: Well, I meant to send that in a PM. But goof’s on me, so there it is, if anyone else wants to try it. Very unofficial release, because I haven’t verified this patch in the official 3.0 beta release firmware; it was built in an earlier beta, so it’s possible that some change to the code may have done something to it.
Wow, thanks. I wouldn’t have imagine it was possible ! Busy at work these days, but I will try it asap !
