SimpleSeq+

[dayvyg]

Is it just me or is there something amiss when trying to select an A0 using the 2V range with Quant enabled. It goes from G#0 to A#0. I can't find an A0 in between.

Thanks.

It's not just you, it's a bug. Turns out there are similar issues with the 1 and 5V quantized ranges too.

Thanks for pointing it out. There's always room for one more on the BCI Beta Team if you're so inclined.

I have a fix, and will get it released asap.

Great, thanks for addressing that so quickly. You can add me to the beta team. I'm always willing to kick some tires.

Cheers.

Hmmm..., when you hit play it seems to skip the first step when using Gate Nouveau 64 sequencer as the clock. The steps after play normally. If I use CV Sequencer from Monkey Audio Business instead of SimpleSeq+ then it plays fine.

I just tried Playertron's Fractional Sequencer and got the same result. SimpleSeq+ skips the first step.

PPQN is set to 1 on SimpleSeq+.

As it stands, the module initializes with step one selected, so its value is "live" before the first clock pulse.

For it to do otherwise will require some thought.

I'm curious about your combination of SimpleSeq+ and a secondary sequencer. When I clock SS+ in my usual way, with a master clock source that can be reset (Macaulay's Clock:Gen) and the play button triggering both resets, I get the desired result - the first step plays correctly, as soon as I hit 'play', no matter what step SS+ was last sitting on.

What does your patch look like?

[dayvyg]

Sure, here you go. This is just a simple example of how I'm using it. Gate Nouveau 64 sends gate signals out the track outputs. I have this set up with a gate to trigger converter but I get the same result without it. It skips the first step in SimpleSeq+ but plays fine after that. I've tried using both the gate to envelope out from Gate Nouveau and the Trigger out to envelope from SimpleSeq+. It makes no difference.

I normally have a transport module reset both the modules when I hit play but I just did it manually for this test.

I tested this setup with the Octagon sequencer, CV Sequencer (MAB) and Fractional Sequencer (Playertron) and it works perfectly.

[huggermugger]

You have nothing patched into the Reset of SS+. I believe that SS+ considers Step 1 already played unless a Reset accompanies the first clock pulse that it receives.

[dayvyg]

Yeah, I've tried that. I've tried both the transport play and stop connected to reset on SimpleSeq+. Didn't make a difference.

[dayvyg]

I've found a way to make it work with Gate Nouveau. If I enable step 1 on another track and put it through a gate to trigger converter and then use that to reset SimpleSeq+, it will play start from the beginning. Yay!
