Amazing new update in Pam's I got lucky with some new build options and freed up a tiny bit of space on the Pam firmware image builds :hyper: . This meant I could finally fix some long standing weird bugs and add a couple of new features. I've made an initial 202 BETA release available with this work. The first new feature is a basic quantiser option on each channel with a few fixed scales to choose from. Please keep in mind Pams outputs are 10bits so don't expect this to be super precise but isn't too bad as limited to 5 octaves anyway. I don't plan on adding hundreds of exotic scales, microtonal stuff etc.. if you want that Id advise you grab a dedicated quantiser. Im limited by available space and actually reasonably representing in two characters.. Current scales are; "NO" - no quantisation "MJ" - Major "nM" - Natural minor "hM" - Harmonic minor "P+" - Pent Major "P-" - Pent Minor "LD" - Lydian "JP" - 'Japanese' "5t" - root & a fifth "c1" - I chord "c4" - IV chord "c5" - V chord "12" - 12 tones, chromatic. The chord ones Im playing with for making simple appegios etc. Lemme know how these and other scales work for you. The other new feature is simply a new RUN input assignable triggered option to make a bank load addressable by voltage level (in CV1). Its currently limited to the first 16 banks. These are the bugs that have been fixed (from changelog); - Fix PPQN screen always changing val when made active. - Fix CV reset of random seed (when loop is at 0). - Fix wierd CVx modifiers always getting assigned when param clicked after assigning one! - Make full reset actually reset mute states. Note Im still pretty space constrained and though I do have a little space left I would rather save this for fixing future potential issues rather than any additional new features. At least in immediate future. Top One ALM x

Clearly thousands of people don't find it to be an issue. It's always a balance with an interface for something multi channel and with this much opportunity. I'm glad I don't need 90HP of controls to select through every option 8 times over for all the outputs. But it's absolutely fine if you do want knob per function, it's modular so luckily we can make the systems to suit ourselves.

Yes, you are probably right. My skiff is aiming to be very much performance oriented, but the amount of features per hp added the PNW to the my wishlist :-)
I know this is an old video and all, but... My PNWO is on order and arrives in the next week or so, along with Intellijel scales, plus MI Ears and Kinks (My vendor had a sale on old demo/b-stock gear, and I got a good discount.) Proper clocking has been lacking in my system (Marbles random clock or just a grid-stuck bsp was all I had until this.) Being able to shift things around and add movement is gonna be so nice. PNWO will run the drums in Bitbox2, plus whatever else feels necessary, so I can leave Marbles/Frames firmware hack for Plaits and 0-Coast. A PEXP-1 will let me run my Novation Nova / Drumbrute Impact / Microfreak via midi... So many options. Thanks for the help, as always.
This is one of my favorite modules. Then again so is pretty much my whole 270hp case.... Lol

@DivKid
6 жыл бұрын
Check this site out - www.groovemechanics.com/euclid/ - it's an online Euclidean sequencer so you can play and figure it out. The basics are you set a step length. Say 16 steps, think of that as 16th notes in a bar. So you set how many steps will be active, say 5 and it tries it's best to evenly distribute 5 steps within the step length (we said 16). Of course 5 doesn't go into 16 so you get a more rhythmic pattern as opposed to a straight division of the beat/clock/tempo. There's often then a rotation control which will let you grab the pattern and shift around the available steps. Have a play with the site and I think it will help.

random question but I'm looking into getting a PNW and splitting clock signals/rests between itself, a nerdseq, octatrack, and a rene 2. Do you think something like a buffered multiple would be necessary for a situation like this or in general with sending clock sources to various destinations to keep the voltage levels steady thus keeping the clock rate steady?

Can Pamela still send clock via its MIDI expander, when receiveg external clock?
in envelope mode, can you use it as a one-off trigger, or does it have to loop to tempo? and is it just an AR envelope, or is there any more complex control? I'm building a small skiff, and am wondering if I need separate adsr modules in addition to this, or if I can use this for that too
hey there, just got this module, and I'm completely new to modular. I have a Pico Drums, and I have the cv input configured to control the decay on the drum sample 1 (ex. output 1 triggering the sample, output 2 going to the cv input of the Pico Drums controlling the decay of that sample). The sample is a hat sound, and when the decay is long, it sounds like a cymbal ride. I have the hat triggering several times per bar of the total pattern with other drum modules. What I want to accomplish is to have the decay be completely open on the first hat trigger (the downbeat) and then close the decay on the successive triggers of the hat in the pattern/bar. Is this possible with PNW? I tried to do this with the envelope going to the cv in and it creates a rhythmic thing with the decay but I can't figure out what its doing. I don't know if its retriggering the envelope on every sample trigger. I know I can probably get this to work using the divisors on the modifier, but I'm not quite sure how yet. Great vid btw, the manual doesn't really say much about the envelope, but it's clear here how it's working.
Thanks for the video. Do you know if on Pamela's NEW Workout it's possible to go from one bpm setting DIRECTLY to a different bpm, avoiding a gradual speeding up/slowing down? (120BPM > 130BPM, instead of 120BPM > 121BPM > 122BPM > … > 130BPM)

Hi Daniel, personally I'd put a DivKid Mutes module (sorry I'm bias, but that tool was made to do that with the gates/trigs or the audio if you wish) between Pams and the drums. Or after the drums sometimes. Not sure if there's a mute function in Pams now but there's no performance based control to do it across multiple outputs.

anything that multiplies a tempo is trying to learn and internalise it. So it's not going to work that well. Dividers you can work with irregularly but multiplying something means learning the clock. I mean you can try it and get things that warp around but I don't know what you're wanting in terms of results. Why not use PNW to get the irregular stuff? What do you want to achieve?

@@DivKid Ah ok, that makes some sense to me. Thanks Ben :) you're always so helpful. And well I'm planning on building a tiny sampling system based around the Phonogene and Radio Music, with the PNW for clocking/modulation. I thought it would be cool if I could set up something within that system, and then sequence PNW externally for further playability. As that's my one gripe with PNW, as great as it is it's not the most playable/tweakable thing in the world. (Though come to think of it the cv inputs and the reset input could be well enough anyways!)

you can look at it the other way and use the PNW to influence everything else. Even patching one of it's outputs back to itself can work well too.
