#stepsequencer

Continued thread

A few days ago I asked you whether you would prefer a crazy smiley, a normal smiley, none at all or a smiley that adapts to the state of the synthesizer in the upcoming #jc303 version with #stepsequencer and #distortion.
You voted 33% for “No acid smiley” and 33% for “Friendly smiley”, which is why I need to ask you again today which of the two options you would like to choose in the end. 🫣😉

@human_oncomouse I've been designing user interfaces for clients for 25 years and switched completely to #linux a few years ago. In this process I started investing my time in #opensource projects too and when I heard about #jc303 I knew I wanted to contribute some time and energy there. #midilab has lovingly welcomed me and supported me along the way. We are already working together on major expansions (#stepsequencer and #effects). 😇🥳

Ceart, problem identified.

The #Behringer 960 & 1027 #stepSequencer clones do not send trigger pulses from their step outputs when externally stepped, but full-width gates.  Unlike the 182, which does send a c.20% pulse.  (Also, neither the 1027 nor the 182 pulse width controls affect the output in this case.)  So two contiguous steps become a single 200% width pulse even if taken from the 960 & 1027 separately.  I assume this is original behaviour?

Time for a rethink.

Another short demo showing off a few new features. The display now has cursors to indicate which wave position you are on when modifying the wave via the module (instead of having to edit the patch file) and now has a fun cursor that shows you where the step sequencer is. Additionally all for step sequencer modes (forward, backward, ping-pong, and reverse) are working!

To show off the sequencer, I ran the module's output through my Doepfer Wasp filter although this does stomp on the modulation of the wave frames a bit. Still it sounds pretty neat! In practice, when using this with our band stuff (@victimcache ) we added a slew to the step sequencer to round the cutoff changes a bit.

I think at this point this thing is nearly ready to use! I'd like to have a decent default patch set and have pondered adding more patch slots (there's currently only 16) but I think after that, since patches are just stored in a textfile on the SD card, having a way to generate patches on the module (like you can in LSDJ) is something I still very much want to do, but as mentioned previously, I will likely work on that externally via something like Python until I have all that working and then port that over to the module.

Reorganizing the codebase (basically switching over to C++) really helped clean up the code in ways that should make it much easier to add new features though yeah I think it's close to minimum viable at this point.
