    Looking awesome. Glad you made it through the redesign. I missed getting it the first time around. When switching clock divisions, do you need to press the encoder to make the clock switch, or does it switch to each division as you scroll through? I would prefer if you need to press the encoder to activate the clock change. That way you could switch between two different divisions without hitting all the ones in between. Just a suggestion. Maybe it's that way already, couldn't tell. Also, keep the CV and Gate improvements coming. I plan to use this with my eurorack, with MIDI as an amazing bonus. Mostly acid lines. Need the CV, Gate for pitch and envelope, and a gate and CV for controlling a gated slew module for slides. Sounds just like your box. :) Keep making controllers like this that allow advanced DAW features in a small package. Generation and randomization with variable control and saving states. Very cool.

    • @SpektroAudio
      @SpektroAudio 6 місяців тому

      Thank you! Haha yeah the redesign ended up taking a bit longer but it proved to be a good decision. So the Clock Rate parameter is treated as a "live" parameter so it changes as you scroll it (as opposed to other parameters such as the Generator selector which only changes when you press the encoder again). I could see both options being useful in different scenarios for the Clock Rate but changing it live lets the user use it more as a performance feature (similarly to the Arper demo in the Clock Rate section of the video). Only changing it after you've pressed the encoder again could be useful for more accurate timing and precise value jumps but it's no how it's currently implemented. Oh I have quite a few things planned for the CV / Gate outputs for the next updates that didn't make the cut for the 1.1. The currently implementation offers a basic integration but I plan to expand it in the future. -Icaro

  • @peti303

    Great job! By studying the manual, it seems to be a fantastic midi swiss army knife for composing. If I see correctly, instead of Teensy, it was based on Raspberry Pico, right? If I interpret correctly, by opening the NSL Engine, it will even be possible to edit new MFXs (like the Java Script Midi editor in Logic Pro)? I hope my order will fit into the 2024 batch... I can't wait to use it! You guys are brilliant!

    • @SpektroAudio
      @SpektroAudio 6 місяців тому

      Thanks! Yes, I decided to switch to a custom RP2040 based board because it seemed like a more sustainable option considering that getting Teensys here in Brazil became nearly impossible. The RP2040 dual core proved to work amazing with the new NGEN framework and I'm very happy with the performance. The NSL idea is still in its early stages so currently we only have the Generator but an NSL based MIDI FX could be added in the future. The idea is similar to Logic's JS editor but it's currently all hex based (for memory efficiency and performance). It is possible to program the NSL scripts directly in HEX but I hope to release a GUI editor in the future so it can be visually programmed (similarly to Scratch). - Icaro
