PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
Hi all
I use peerscale all the time. It gives me great Inspiration for new melodies and fragments.
I miss two functions:
1) to be able to record the notes played (e.g. PS controls Qsamo, I would like to record the notes in Qsamo to 'fix' it)
2) It would be nice to have a velocity Parameter as well - it seems that I can't control velocity in a synth while it is being played by PS
Thanks!

If it doesn't work already then I'm not sure it's possible.sparschaeler wrote:1) to be able to record the notes played (e.g. PS controls Qsamo, I would like to record the notes in Qsamo to 'fix' it)
I could probably add a velocity param without too much trouble. I'll put it on the todo list.sparschaeler wrote:2) It would be nice to have a velocity Parameter as well - it seems that I can't control velocity in a synth while it is being played by PS
Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
I think another thing is a little bit annoying, peerscale has no note off, in fact peerscale is mono, so a new note cut the last one, but in some setup, with split for example, its different.
About recording, i've no idea because i use buzz only in real time.

same thing for me, scales are an important part of human story, many religious and shamanic questions around that. But many scales needs tuning, a slendro or a pelog can't survive in a mathematical system (12 ET).sparschaeler wrote:I use peerscale all the time.

Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
+1 for note off please (maybe just make it 0000, nobody needs a note that low ?)
Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
Note-off is on the todo list but it's a bit tricky.
Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
It works with a little help of energyXT.
The demoversion will export midifiles like it did before, I guess. bmx: In the bmx:
-open energyXT window to push record.
-play buzz
-export to midifile in energyXT window
-import in buzz again (and convert to patterns)

Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
Does anybody know a way to send peerchord's notes to different machines and not to different tracks of the same machine (without adding tracks in peerchord, I mean).
Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
no, peerchord (unlike peerctrl) can't do this. it would be great if somebody could replace the assignement window of peerchord with the peerctrl one, because the peerlib supports this, the gui just doesn't expose it.vacuum wrote:Does anybody know a way to send peerchord's notes to different machines and not to different tracks of the same machine (without adding tracks in peerchord, I mean).
Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
Peerlib has no built-in method for handling multiple target machines. Some peer machines were designed to work with multiple targets, some weren't. Adapting PeerChord to send notes to separate machines might be possible but it wouldn't be trivial.UNZ wrote:peerlib supports this, the gui just doesn't expose it.
Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
did you try to assign peerchord to ix split with multiple layers ?vacuum wrote:Does anybody know a way to send peerchord's notes to different machines and not to different tracks of the same machine (without adding tracks in peerchord, I mean).
Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
but then its still implemented in the peerctrl gui. iirc that assignment window was an example implementation of "how to do it in the gui" anyway. i was wondering for years why some machines used a "shitty" version of the assignment window when peerctrl shows how to do it properly...IXix wrote:Peerlib has no built-in method for handling multiple target machines.

Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
You have to code your own GUI, peerlib doesn't have one built in. It has a few helper methods for using some of the simple windows controls (eg. list/combobox) but that's all.UNZ wrote:i was wondering for years why some machines used a "shitty" version of the assignment window when peerctrl shows how to do it properly...

but the peerctrl gui is still open source, right ?IXix wrote:You have to code your own GUI, peerlib doesn't have one built in.

Re: PeerScale: Velocity and Record?
Yeah, but it's MFC so not much use to anyone using VC Express and also it's not likely to be very relevant to most machines anyway. Probably better to just make your own from scratch. Raw Win32 API is hideous to work with but Win32++ makes it a lot easier and of course new machines can use .NET.UNZ wrote:but the peerctrl gui is still open source, right ?
If I had time I'd rewrite all my machines (and all btd's too) to use .NET but time is in short supply these days.

it's seems only to work more or less like in this example with Split and 3 x Infector while the velocity is un-assigned,
so that the notes that are unwanted have velocity 00: .. but from three notes, one of them is sometimes double, while another is missing
The reason for asking was to have 4 instances of joachims tb4005 playing more than
just the default chords of one instance of tb4005.
(I have made a soundfont though, that works pretty good too, when I use with
peerADSR + a nice filter + peerchord + peermeta: tb4004 with more controlledge,
but less control over the pulsewidth. I think it's worth uploading it here maybe.)
(If things seem impossible, it's more interesting to try than
when it's easy, kinda silly motives I have maybe sometimes..)
