And now for my wishlist:
- That cool new feature that was just added for changing velocity and gate for all steps would be nice for pitch, too. I'd like to transpose the pattern by semitones using the same Shift+Knob Function. Maybe Knob 1 for the current "16," and Knob 2 for the entire pattern. Or maybe Knobs 1-4 can transpose in sets of 16 (1=1-16, 2=17-32, etc), 5&6 in sets of 32, 7 for the whole pattern, and heck… knob 8 for the entire project. It would be most helpful to be able to write steps 1-16, copy to 17-32 and just transpose by a semitone or two in either direction. This would also be helpful when starting a new pattern, where all default to C3, but need to be tuned up or down to a different starting point.
- It's been mentioned, but MIDI channel assignments by project would be nice, and assignments by Pad in the drums would also be quite welcome.
- Please add the Volca sync rate of 1 pulse per 2 steps - or just allow a value to be entered, which would be much more flexible, and also enable users to "fake" tempos to other devices, like cutting the output in half to cause slave devices to run at half speed - thus increasing their "loop" time.
140 bpm on BSP = 70bpm on a synced device or one bar of 16ths on BSP = 2 bars of 8ths on the slave.
- Tempo changes assigned on a per pattern basis would be nice. Not all songs use the same tempo from beginning to end.
There are also a few bugs:
- There's that first step from the "previous" pattern issue when using PRST LINK and "wait to change." To reiterate, switching from a pattern causes the first step from the "previous" pattern to play before steps 2+ from the "next" pattern.
- I've had an issue where the note hangs when a sequencer is muted. I'm guessing a "note off" or "release" message needs to be sent with the mute?
- I've had issues with the drums double-triggering when "tap" recording while the sequence is running. This does not occur on playback, but sounds horrible during that first pass.
