midi ‘thru’ (fo/r midi notes)
on a particular chain, check that midi in is ON, and the midi in and out channel is set to non-zero
if the chain just has ‘empty’ modules then midi notes will flow thru, if you have a synth in the chain, then you will need to set note-thru =on , on the synth module in the router (e.g. a1)
it wont sent thru other midi cc etc… if you want to do that id suggest setting this up with alsa as it be more efficient… (why go alsa -> pd (orac) -> alsa)
audio in
in the router go to the relevant chain, and turn up the input gain
then audio will flow thru the chain.
(there is an audio thru, again for synths modules that usually wont pass the audio thru)
I want to send clock (start, etc)from a midi out controler to a drumbox via midi out of the pisound and play the sound of the drumbox mixed with the orac without lost the three midi chanel. The drum box as another midi chanel, is that possible with your tips?
The audio in work fine thanks. But i tryed every configuration possible (master midi in, slave midi out. Master usb. Master and slave usb…) and the clock doesnt pass thru. I use pisound with patchbox os btw
It connects by default only MIDI software with hardware MIDI ports. In case you want hardware to be connected to hardware, you’ll have to set up the rule in /etc/amidiauto.conf.
Ok I’ve got cvtools installed and working with pisound. Still kinda scratching my head on how routing would be done for the left and right inputs. As one for note, one for mod. I’ll keep twiddling.
I swear I read it was, must be the Mandela Effect. It does seem to be working. I’m not sure how well for pitch since I have been trying out with an SQ1 by itself.
The Pisound’s input is AC coupled, the output is DC coupled. However, keep in mind that audio outputs usually don’t provide the entire CV voltage range, Pisound should have 0~2.5V output range, so you’d have to additionally scale it up to 0-5V or whatever range your system uses.
Hi, i am a Beginner with Orac on RP3+ from Berlin,
so i have no Ideas anymore.
Installed Patchbox, Updates, Orac Modules on the RaspberryPi with PiSound
Can hear the Drumloop and Midi Keyb.
But in the Main.PD nothing choose the modules like in Mark‘s Videos. Only the Drumloop is playing.
I dont no whats is my mistake.
I saw all the Intruction Videos from Mark
Can anybody help?
Hi @thetechnobear
I have one simple question, I couldnt get it through the Manual:
Can I use ORAC as a Audio FX Module, for example when I just want to
apply some Delay/Reverb on my Guitar which I chain through pisound?
yes you can add new modules, they get placed in
~/media/orac/usermodules/
generally, modules are compatible
however, some are developing modules which have graphics components which is outside of the Orac API.
I’ve always suggested that this are done in addition to parameters which would work without graphics, but this is not always done - so mileage will vary depending on modules.
