Just received my Rytm yesterday. (In the US, 3 days after I ordered -shipped from Sweden!).
A few questions I couldn’t quite hunt down in manual.
Can you map start time to velocity? Combined with roll/repeat feature on pads makes for great fun.
Are there other glitchy or such things that can be done with samples, like the OT?
Oh yea, also… is there any file number limits or speed/ performance problems with having a large number of samples in one folder?
Also – how do I check how many sounds/ and file space on the +drive?
I can’t seem to find in the manual or in machine menus anywhere.
You can indeed map start time of the sample to velocity. It is very useful and in fact, my next tutorial is on this tip exactly.
The “accent” trigs also act as velocity input, so you can build more precise sequences than just inputting velocity with the pads, which are far from precise.
Other glitchy stuff includes modulating the sample start and end point with slide trigs, while having Loop set to ON. Or modulating both pitches of the Classic rim shot with slide trigs, good fun.
Fast square LFO to Rim shot balance parameter will give you computer bleeps 
Explore and let us know what you find !
Cheers
Indeed!

If you want to ‘scroll’ or ‘window’ linearly through a sample, I suggest setting your sample start to 127 and making your velocity modulation depth negative 128. This means you have to apply max pressure to the pad to start at zero, but as you decrease pressure you will window through the sample forwards. If you do it the other way around you will hear the sample play as the pressure falls back from full to nothing.
Awesome, thanks for the info guys. Good tip about setting up with negative mod… helpful too as the pads velocity register seems pretty stiff.
not that i’m aware of
