Does anyone know how well this thing works in Linux? I specifically mean the multitrack USB audio….
Questions for the owners of the play+. Im looking into this gear at the moment.
- Is it fast loading samples?
- can automation be recorded per clip or pattern?
- is there a proper song mode? Maybe like the deluge?
- can the encoders also be used for CC?
Could not really find most in the manual, and if so, most manuals are outdated these days.

Loading samples in the pool takes a little bit, but not much. Once in the pool, it load instantly in the sequencer. So, yes.

Yes.

No. You put your patterns in order, press shift+play ant it will reproduce in order. But it works. You only need to do an arrangement and put it in order. If you want to see some Play+ songs arranged send me a PM.
And it has a mode to play with patterns like clips in Ableton. Very useful to improvise. Although I almost always use the pattern mode.
- Yes. In the synth part you can choose to use a midi channel or usb channel instead an internal synth. But right now I don’t know how many CCs you can configure.
