strides v1.4
strides is a collection of 16 pattern recorders.
8 are norns focused, expressed as encoder recorders sending midi cc's.
8 are grid focused, allowing for finger drum style recording and looping (with optional midi note out).
norns
load samples, set midi notes and cc destinations in the PARAMETERS menu.
there are two operating modes in strides, grid and encoder. to switch modes, hold key1 and press key3.
grid mode controls
- enc1 - volume
- enc2 - delay time
- enc3 - delay feedback
- key1 = hold to access secondary encoder/ key functions
- enc1 = distortion amount
- enc2 = delay level
- enc3 = delay send
- key2 = half time
- key3 = double time
nb: delay send works on all samples and tracks. if you wish to send individual samples to delay, you can do so via the PARAMETERS menu.
encoder mode controls
- key2 = arm record
- key3 = start/ stop pattern
- enc1 = select active pattern
- enc2 = turn to begin recording (if armed) and/or set cc value
nb: set your cc destinations and midi output channels in the PARAMETERS menu.
grid
hold alt to access secondary grid functions.
- a - track selection
- b - arm record
- c - start/stop selected track
- d - alt
- a - track stop
- b - clear all patterns
- c - stop all tracks
- e - sample pads
nb: as of v1.2 a midi panic/ kill button was added just above alt. hold alt to expose.
as well as secondary controls, holding alt will bring up several controls for pattern and playback speed manipulation.
- f - toggle pattern linearization
- g - double sample playback speed
- h - half pattern speed
- i - double pattern speed
- j - half sample playback speed
- k - restore pattern speed to original or linearized if selected
- l - restore all sample playback speed to original
