didn’t know there is a firmware for this problem already. anyway, if one exist: cool
If you want to write and flash a custom firmware (thats what I did with the help from the retrokit guys…) you cant do that with webpage. Retrokit package for arduino ide (what you need to write a custom one!) is broken on windows.
Could’ve changed since 2021, I don’t know.
Erica finally reached out after I told them about the Vel0. They said they were unaware and put it on the to-do list for firmware updates. I’m tempted to link your script (if it even works like this) and ask if it helps, but don’t know how ethical or realistic that is. Thoughts?
Midi cc works ONLY from ot->lxr if you do it via global channel.
So if you want to play lets say chromatic bass and want to alter filter, decay you’ll need 2 tracks. one for the chromatic drum channel and one for midi cc.
Possible workaround: use only global channel and use coarse and fine tune for notes instead of chromatic mode. You’ll lose midi arp that way.
Thanks. I may mess around with that, but losing the arp is a big one for sure. I’m still liking the lxr, but the OT arp was a big part of my vision for it. I also wish there were some more fun performance options. Rolls kind of get old quick.
Retrokit rk002 rocks - I programmed my cable with Edge browser (didn’t want to install chrome…), Retrokit is pulling off an online programmer where you can paste your code, compile and upload via web-midi. It’s in beta, but it works.
Anyway:
All sequenced from Octatrack, including chromatic notes, midi-arp, midi-lfo, midi-retrig on that bleep snare,… (no lfo in lxr-kit!). I used the faders and performance buttons (mute and ta ta ta ta ta) on the lxr.
It is sometimes laggy and misses cc values…, but I guess if I put a delay into it or so… perhaps, perhaps, I’ll investigate.
It fixes note off issue and routes no matter what cc values to channel 1.
I used channel 2 to 8 for the lxr-lanes, note receive set to “any”.
I used midi cc on those channel, and the corresponding cc numbers accordingly to the documentation of lxr.
Well, it works.
It just was a quick test, thats why you want to vomit:
