Does anyone know if there’s a way to set velocity as it can be done with the cirklon?
In this video Benjamin Damage set the velocity of the hi hats in a very natural and fast way: https://youtu.be/3qNKgtzEWCs?t=1m35s
i don’t find p-locking every step in a full 16 bar fast enough for my taste.
Cheers
You can get a similar workflow if you use the LFO Designer to sequence velocity, and then route that LFO to velocity in SYNC TRIG mode at a total speed of 128 (e.g., 2x scale and 64 speed). Give it a shot
Thank for the reply ser, that worked except for the fact that is active only for 16 steps. I’m trying to add variations with another lfo routed to the speed of the velocity’s lfo but it doesn’t seem to go through the 16 steps loop.
I’m not sure what you mean by ‘active for only 16 steps.’ You will only have 16 discrete ‘variations’ you can sequentially program on a custom LFO, but that 16-step “sequence” can loop continuously over >16 steps. It sounds like you’ve set the LFO’s TRIG mode to “SYNC ONE,” which means every time the track restarts it will retrigger one cycle of the LFO and then the LFO will stop. In “SYNC TRIG” mode, the LFO will retrigger at track start (as I assume you want, to keep the steps aligned with the note steps) and then cycle continuously until the track restarts.
yeah, i was just looking for a way to add variations to the velocity setting in order to achieve different trig velocities in the 64 steps. I guess the only way is by routing another lfo to the spd of the velocity’s lfo.
a random LFO shape set to Hold mode will give a different value every trig, if this can be used to modulate a parameter it breathes life into a pattern - I use this approach for virtually every patch I design on the analog boxes, I’m sure it’s there for the taking on the OT too … the key is to set a moderate depth and modulate in and around the average ideal depth, no two passes will be the same as the random wave does not repeat
