Volca Style Controls - Githubissues

mayasfinest commented 2 years ago

Hi, thanks for sharing your project!

In the docs you write about Volca Style CV Inputs, how are they connected to the circuit? There is no reference in the schematic. Do I have to enable them in the code? Where do these pin-sockets below the matrix go to and isn't there a ground connection i need...?

PS: I just built your Freaq Synth, love it so far, quite advanced features i'll really have to dive in...

Hi,

Another half-implemented feature, sorry! My intention was to wire them to the pot wipers similar to the way I hacked my two volcas (see demos on my YouTube channel).

But once I had finished the build, There was so much modulation with the “motion recording” that I didn’t bother to proceed with adding external modulation inputs . Like my volca mods, the theory would have been that the two devices would share a ground through a sync cable.

Cheers.

Has the Clone Pushbutton any function? I wired it to D12 but there is no reference in the code...
Can the Tempo be really, I mean really slow? The tap tempo doesn't seem to recognize my slooow taps.
How exactly do I use the record button? I held the rec buttorn while wiggling at some pots butI don't feel it plays back any recorded movements... Do I have to be fast in any way? Can it record any pot movement? Can it record multiple pots? What happens when I "overdub", does it add a second movement. Mysterious

Tomorrow, I'll build the case (wooden) then I will show you some pics of your 2 synths (you won't recognize them ;-) I also implanted a Volume knob from (D9 to a A100K) as I like to fade in my synths

Hi, From memory the Clone button = retrigger in code. While pressed, It keeps the note sequencer on the current step. Idea was you can hold it down on one note for a filter build while the sequence is mutating in the background then release it to drop back to the new mutated sequence.

Not sure about the tempo, I don’t recall putting any limits in there. It is a simple time measured between two pushes. Again this is from memory as I’m away from my account at the moment. Might be limited by variable size (eg signed int would make it max 32767ms = ~32 seconds)

Rec should record knob movements for all the synth parameters. It only records if you move the knob though, so if you don’t move it during a step it won’t record the position - you have to wiggle it (just a little bit 😂). Moving a second time it will just store the last movement during the step.

Hope that helps. Looking forward to seeing the results! 😁

This is what I did to your Synth 😁
