Quote:In regards to envelopes, it looks like for right now, when you edit the envelope on a step in the pattern, it changes the envelope setting globally (each new step follows the new edit permanently). Will it be possible for an envelope to remember a setting on a per-step basis?
So I would set up, say, Env1 with a fast attack. This would be the "default" setting it would reset to when I insert Env1 on a new step in Patterns. Then in CV pattern, maybe for one step I would like Env1 to generate a slow attack. Will it be possible to do this without having to use a new Envelope (2-8) that already has a slow attack set up? It looks like for right now, the only way to do this is to alternate Env1 with Env2 thru Env8 with an different setting. This feels a little rigid to me and it would make each envelope that much more valuable/flexible.
I don't think that is possible. You can change ENV1 on the fly (through FX) , but then it gets also the new setting.
The Expander doesn't know anything about steps..not even about tracks. All the arrangement is done in the NerdSEQ and not the expander. The Expander on the other hand, gets the envelope type commands and runs it. That is then something the NerdSEQ doesn't know about. So it never knows when envelopes are finished (except for if they are told to stop).
So either switching between envelopes (and you can have them all on all different outputs started at different times on each output) or changing the parameters via FX would be your solution here. (Still not to bad compared to turn a knob if you want to change an envelope parameter...here it's either complete envelope change or change parameters).
Quote:The next question is for tables, sorry not CV specific: for table scaling, will it be possible to change to digits instead of note values? So semitone values (00, 01, etc) instead of C, C#, etc. This way the scale function doesn't ignore the base note? Then I could have table 1 be major scale, table 2 minor scale, and then all I need to do is put in the base note and table value in the Pattern screen?
Not sure what you mean here. 'Digits' is in the classic table transpose steps. There you set up a major/minor scale (or whatever transition) and it runs with the basenote.
Additionally you can choose now if it should also be scaled to the allowed notes (i forgot to mention in the video that yo ucan change the allowed notes also manually). All generated transpositions can be forced to match the allowed notes in different ways. So you can simply set up different tables which do or do not run with the basenote.
PLEASE use the search function if something have been asked or discussed before.
