midi one shot trigs, i’m sure it’s already been requested, but here is a +1… was trying to put it for ten minutes, then looked up in the manual that it’s not available for midi. bummer. when sequencing drum machines it can free up a pattern or two.
the other request i will copy from the elektron users forum, it didn’t get much love there…
making the tempo multiplier in the scale menu a free value so one could dial in 1/5 or other values.
would be a great tool for complicated polyrhythms…
even better would be an option for the different tracks to cycle a predefined number of beats in N steps, for example track one has 4 beats that take up 16 steps, while at the same time track 2 has the same number of beats with 17 steps. that way, in time that track 1 finishes with its 16 steps, track 2 has finished it’s 17 step cycle. this would make the Octa the mother of all polyrhythm.
I’m necroing this thread because I went looking for midi one-shot and instead found this.
+1
Is there no way around?
EDIT: seems that’s changed. However: the track sequence begins not when I hit the corresponding trig, but when the pattern starts over. In addition, the track sequence won’t go anywhere unless the sequencer is running.
Basically I want it to act exactly like a one-shot of a long sample. Is that not possible?
I don’t want trig-condi on the OT: my head would explode.
Ok so I must be doing something wrong. I’ve got under Pattern Settings T1 Plays Free Xed, Oneshot Trg Xed, Trig Mode One and Trig Quant TR.LEN (read in another post direct “is broken”)
What happens is I press trig 9, T1 stop sign turns to play for a split second, the first trig note plays, then nothing. The track doesn’t continue.
3 years later…I’ve been been in need of one shot midi trig recently and just discovered that there was no one shot midi trig.
If that could be of any help to someone with the conditional trig update, you can use “1st” as trig condition for your midi trig. Duplicate the pattern and switch between the two to emulate “arm” behaviour…
