sending/receiving Midicontrol Data on NM1?
Subject description: is it possible to send the poti-changes AND use them in patch ? |
  |
|
hello together,
i have a question concerning sending and receiving midi control data with my NM1 keyboard.
the manual says its not possible to use the potis for external midi control AND for a patch the sametime... is there a workaround possible ?
i want to record the changes i make with the knobs with a sequencer (logic) and use the sequencer to "finetune" them.
how can i use the envelopes in logic to draw my controller-curves ?
thank you very much in advance...
cheers from cologne...

Should be possible, right click on a knob in the patch to assign both a physical knob and a midi controller to it. Turning the knob should send CC's sending CC's to the NM should turn the knob in the patch, not the physical one of course.

At the very least, you can make the knobs on the NM 1 send CC changes.
I have done this and can easily hear other synths responding.
I don't know about midi messages though. |

thank you both very much.
how can i make the knobs sending cc-data ?
then it should be possible to do both - sending the data to logic and, same time, have the synth reading and responding to this data.... right ?
and then it probably works to draw the envelopes in logic... i`ll try this. (unfortunately i left my modular in the studio yesterday...)
thanks again !

Jan already answered this
>>then it should be possible to do both - sending the data to logic and, >>same time, have the synth reading and responding to this data.... rightI don't use logic- but anything that can monitor the midi stream coming from the NM should be able to respond to the CC changes, if that device/software is configured correctly. |

oh... then i misunderstood jan`s post. i thougt he ment it the other way round - and told me how the modular (editor) is able to receive data...not send it.
sorry..
i`ll try it when i`ve got my modular back....
one other thing - do you know a place where i can find some patches maybe as a zip-file ? i`m searching for some dirty bass-synths and some special-sounding-vocoderpatches
regards...

Indeed you misunderstood, it can do both send and receive :-)
Edit :
The manual is at : http://www.clavia.se/products/manuals.htm I suggest reading Chapter 4. "Basic functions", section "Knobs and controllers' p37 .. p40 or up to p41 when you want to know about morphs as well.

Most of the NM patches are here
http://nm-archives.electro-music.com/010_NordModular/
There's one linked that is for a zipped file, but It may/may not included all the other patches.
However, it's a good place to start. The zipped file was 20-30MB or something like that, at one point. |

A related question:
How can I send stuff to the MIDI output on my Micro Modular?
I need to pass on the clock signal that the MM gets, to another MIDI device....
I looked at the "synth settings" and "patch settings". Couldn't find anything about the MIDI output. Nor could I find a MIDI output module....
Surely the output is there for a reason?
FYI: I am using the OSX editor.
And I want the clock signal from my Roland R-5 drum machine to be forwarded to the TD-6 V-Drums module after it has been in the Micro Modular.... (I tried to go through the V-Drums and then to the MM, but it only got clock signal when the sequencer in the TD-6 was running... so it doesn't work for me, as I need to start and stop that sequencer all the time.)
thanks |

The MIDI Out port on your Micro is for those little knobs only  I would also like to see a MIDI-Out module on first Modular... |

Ah.  I'll probably have to get a MIDI Through box then, right? One that has one input and a couple of outputs, so that I can have the clock signal from the drum machine fed both to the MM and the TD-6.
Thanks. |
