Nithonat betas and RCs
Nithonat betas and RCs
Hello,
So far so good for testing that the internal sequencer does actually work, sounds are (still) nice and I get my way around writing presets.
Now I'd like to be able to create a few patterns in the sequencer. I can program it allright but I think i must be missing something cause i can't seem to be able to make a new pattern.
if i click "patten write" button i can alter the existing pattern, but if I click next to the pattern display it says 1-02 but it remains the same pattern so it seems. Even when I click "next" all to 2-01 , I cant seem to start writing it cause it would just overwrite the one i'm hearing.
So doesnt it work iet yet or am I forgetting to do something ?

Hi,
Best regards,
Sebastian
Idea of sequncer is the most close to the Nepheton. Next and Prev buttons are used for changing pattern for editing (and those buttons work only in PATT.WRITE mode). To play the different pattern You need to turn off PATT.WRITE and use step buttons to select other one.if i click "patten write" button i can alter the existing pattern, but if I click next to the pattern display it says 1-02 but it remains the same pattern so it seems. Even when I click "next" all to 2-01 , I cant seem to start writing it cause it would just overwrite the one i'm hearing.

Yep, but i'm confused, even if i select in pattern write mode, and it reads 1.02 , the first one still plays .
So because I have no second pattern , I can't switch between the 2 when not in pattern write mode, but if I have the mode on: it doesnt select the new pattern to write and you hear the first one..
Hope this ain't too confusing , I guess i'm missing something here..

Found a "save on existing preset file" bug:
I tried saving a present (with a higher tuned snare and longer dacay). When I load the preset, only the decay is recalled but the tuning doesnt match the preset.
If I manually adjust the tuning in the preset file (from 0.288 to 0.688 for example) the tuning is correct.
Nothing seems to be saved when you save it on an existing preset file. If I save it in a new file it loads correctly.

Hi,
Default behavior is that You need to STORE the preset before saving it(CTRL+Browse button).
Best regards,
Sebastian
What host do You use? I need to confirm this issue. Did You use the "Save preset" option in Nithonat?CosmicD wrote:Found a "save on existing preset file" bug:

Hi,
Nithonat doesn't sync with host application when Host mode is active - that's known issue and we're going to fix it asap.

What version exactly? I checked it with 8.0.3 and seems to be fine (In Native mode).globalgoon wrote:when I switch off int. sync., nithonat doesn't sync up to ableton's tempo - it just stays at it's own internal tempo (live

Hi,
There's new version of Nithonat downloadable from User Area (add-ons tab) - Release candidate 1.
Following minor issues were fixed since previous beta version:
- Start/Stop led does not light
- Bugs during play the pattern chain (Native mode)
- Internal Synchronization doesn't work in Host Mode
- Shift "<" ">" buttons combined with CTRL key do not shift the pattern
- Problem with restarting Shuffle cycle during switching the pattern.
Best regards,
Sebastian

Hi,
Known issues in RC2:
- Outputs' numbering (VST version)
- Outputs' mode - stereo only
As soon as those issues be fixed, offical 1.0.0 version be released.
Best regards,
Sebastian
Yet another Release Candidate (RC2) has been released - available in User Area (add-ons section) for everyone who own Nithonat. This version, among the others, fixes this bug. However, this is partially Live's problem and we're going to contact them and notify about that.globalgoon wrote:In live 8.03, nithonat's knobs don't record into the arrangement unless I use the 'confgure' button to add plug-in parameters. all other vstis I have will record any parameter without having to use the configure button.

- Outputs' numbering (VST version)

Hi,
However we can make native mode sensible to midi notes too.
Best regards,
Sebastian
Host mode is dedicated to create arrangement using internal sequencer. Patterns are triggered via midi notes coming from host application. That's why we made two play modes; native (used to make a patterns using Nithonat standalone inserted in host), host mode (to create drum line arrangement). Since those modes share common pattern storage I can't see the point. Could You give an example when it would be useful.Puranon wrote:We should still be able to use the Start/Stop button under VST Host mode.
