Model:Cycles Feature Requests Thread

@avantronica

a parameter lock on a track seems to be safe from glitching under CtrlAll knob movement (in this case the chord type)

I use parameter locks but their are not safe from glitching or being affected by ctrl-all. I. E. the sound is affected.

@PeterHanes

When the sequencer is running or when you are manually playing the tracks?

When sequencer started by a Play RTM sent from an MC6 controller
Or when started manually by pressing the Play button.

@CSurieux

I want to use an external midi controller to send clock on demand, so I don’t need the Model:Cycles clock being sent to Model:Samples and other flangers after it, but if I want some output from Model Cycles I must engage Clock Out ?

Do you mean other output (like Note messages) than clock messages?

I simply don’t need Model Cycles adding a second clock output on my midi buses… seems an basic request.

@PeterHanes

@CSurieux

This permanent and not always necessary Clock saturates my guitar pedal board midi with its flow of useless messages ? Even when my external controller send the main Clock

What devices do you have, and what are the MIDI connections?

I manage all my midi with 2 very usefull IConnectivity devices.

@PeterHanes

@CSurieux

a link to this midi standard rule ?

The MIDI 1.0 specification is here:

Please point me to the detail rule you referred.

Hey guys plz add individual delay effect for instruments! In monomachine its very useful for fat stereo effect and more inspiration idea!

Thnx

@CSurieux

let the output sound go to output when Clock in is On without receiving an external clock, Clock Out off and we press Play ?

@CSurieux

When Clock In is On and Clock Out Off, I get no sound from the model:Cycles ?

@CSurieux

When sequencer started by a Play RTM sent from an MC6 controller

If you set the M:C’s sequencer to take tempo from an external clock source but then do not send it any clock messages, then the M:C does not know how fast to run and so will not play.

@CSurieux

Please point me to the detail rule you referred.

The section of the MIDI specification that covers clock messages is titled “System Real-Time Messages”. Regarding Start and Continue messages, it says:

When a receiver is synchronized to incoming Real Time messages … , the receipt of a Start (FAH) or Continue (FBH) message does not start the sequence until the next Timing Clock (F8H) is received.

Haaaa ok I see, you have not understood what I ws explaining.
Sure that I send in this situation an external clock

Well, still here you have not understood what I am requesting and which is perfectly respecting the midi specs :(.
In what I request the output of clock will start be emitted when we press the Play button, not in permanence as soon as we select the pattern.

@craig

Really? That’s a bug then, right? Parameter locks should always override Control-All.

I don’t think it’s a glitch/bug as it happens on all my other elektron devices to my knowledge, just some parameters it is more noticable and based on how fast you move a knob and how fast your bpm is. Basically you can tweak parameters in between each lock, it can have a neat effect some times but other times it will be bothersome.

[craig]

That actually sounds quite cool! I’m gonna try it on DN later on

@CSurieux

That’s also bad practice. Any device receiving the clock messages would not be pre-locked to the transmitter’s tempo and so the receiver may not play at the correct tempo for a short period after the Start message.

[Jalex]

Its will be good to adding sub pattern with plocks)) lsdj stile or another trackers.

Thnx

[fkandinsky]

It would be nice to have trig preview, especially for chord engine. Process of making progressions will get much faster and easier)

[Roger]

Don’t know if this has already been suggested but it would be cool if we could disable the auto-track-select on the pads. Then you could jam out on all the other pads while tweaking the current selected machine.

[Roger]

@pselodux

Yeah, but what’s the use of a static modifier? Can’t you just use the parameter normally? Just seems like a waste of an LFO to me.

It would be for changing any added “hidden” parameters, for greater control of the FM engine for instance. Or an EQ or HP/LP filter.

[Roger]

The biggest problem with the current tempo setup is if you’re using external sync your pattern’s tempos can get all f’d up.

[iskin]

I understand that it sounds brazenly and audacious: second lfo per track

[velocipede]

Thanks. Coudn’t find PAW explained in the manual anywhere. I guess “paw” is like “hand” so it can “punch”.

[Mono_Lab]

Pattern change instantly, for having pattern change sync on the DT and the M:C.

So, in scale menu, Ch. Length 0. It will be sooooo good for me !

as of today, i would say that USB audio DOESN’T WORK.

using it with ASIO4ALL in order to simply allow it and my audio interface to work together. the audio is TERRIBLE. it is in-the-red and distorted and there is no master volume for USB at all.

The audio is so loud that Ableton Live has consistently shut down all audio to protect hardware.

[silur]

i use ableton 9 with win10 and asio4all with my roland quadcapture. using asio4all is the only way to get audio over usb with cycles/samples.

Same here with samples/cycles and audio over usb. Loudness-level is red and sound is distorted. master volume is working.

Overbridge with digitakt/digitone works smooth in the background.

[anglerfish96]

i’ve been experimenting with some serial track configurations to regulate it.

otherwise, using “CTRL-ALL” with volume/distortion helps… maybe if the resolution of this control was multiplied X2 or 4 or so it would allow compensation for different dynamic ranges.
