I got that too - I’ve no idea what d signifies !
the ‘‘D’’ he he
I can be 8 voices poly.
Ex : set 4 tracks on the same midi channel, set different notes, play the 4 tracks pads > 4 voices poly.
Well, it is cooking.
Choice :
OUTPUT CH selects whether the mini-keyboard and the knobs will send data on the AUTO CHANNEL or the MIDI channel of the selected track.
probably a translation problem :
FOUR means OVEN in French.
Does Elektron translate things in French before? Where are the French manuals?
Can you also use the AUTO CH for all sequencer tracks? When I select AUTO CH as OUTPUT CH in the MIDI settings, the manual pad triggers go through the auto ch but the sequencer triggers still go through the individual trk channels!?
That makes no sense wrt the conceptual function of the auto channel, you may be able to set the track channels to the same value, even the value of the auto channel, but the latter will probably get you in a mess
The Output Channel relates to Pads, not the sequencer in this case
You will have to do what you seek to achieve by other means and certainly look into what the Auto Channel is for - it is a conduit to the pads (primarily externally) so you can control the current selected track
A4 & MB33, they’re in love…
Pressing notes at the same time on the keyboard produces slides. Also, p-locking note lenght per step lets you place slides wherever and however long you want. Same as with the Digitakt, only this works better for me!
Ok, thanks a lot for the fast reply! And sorry for double post - I found the bug thread later and thought it needed to go there instead of here.
I will find a workaround for that. The fw update is gorgeous nonetheless!
Set the channels in the MIDI settings page to be the same, use e.g. Ch1, then both the Pads ( set to Output Ch = Trk ) and sequencer will transmit the on the same channel
The real bug is that there is currently a 2 octave offset between pad hits and sequencer playback
Is there a work around for this using external keyboard? Anyone tried?
been making some absolutely amazing A4 presets with heavy lfo/envelope randomizations. huge musique concrete environments, amazing spaces
Here’s what I get
Playing pads and varying NOTe offset between -24 and 24 it transmits via Track channel notes 12>60
It sends the same if you use chromatic mode
If you record it, it will play internally fine, but suddenly externally send MIDI data two octaves higher
If you do it via external keys it makes no difference, except that the notes cannot be transmitted via midi during input, they do play internal voices as expected and they do sequence externally 2 octaves higher, but you don’t hear the external input over midi, so you play blind
Something’s not right
Edit : Both the MIDI-Out offset issue and the blind external MIDI-In functionality input issues have been ticketed
I missed that. That is to say?
i.e you play the notes but can only hear them later when they are sequenced back - the sequenced midi instrument is not played via external auto channel input, so you are playing ‘blind’ so to speak - although you can get clues from an internal voice perhaps, but for normal MIDI use this is lacking
The Auto Channel also needs to pass MIDI out, just as the onboard pads/keys do so that the new MIDI functionality can be played along with recorded via all available input methods
Just installed the new OS on my A4 Mk1.
I can sequence an external synth with the new MIDI out function and sequencer.
Howerer, I’m not able to play any notes using the A4’s keyboard buttons so I can’t really preview the notes I’m entering into the sequencer.
Is this a bug with OS 1.40?
Has anyone else experienced this with their A4?
Cheers!
Set the midi option to transmit notes to Int+Ext - also output Ch set to Trk
Is anyone having some funkiness when opening the global menu on Rytm MKI? I press Function + Track button to get to Global menu and every now and then it opens the menu where I can load or save projects, but sometimes it only shows the load project list, without any way to go to upper menu level. I must be doing something stupid as I cannot seem to figure the logic out.
