AR Analog Rytm feature request thread

+1 for the multiple trig select idea. My vote would be the function button to hold while selecting trigs.

Ha that’s exactly what i use it for, dub techno, and i have been using the junkyard since day one a year ago. Check out some AR dubtechno with junkyard sounds: https://soundcloud.com/kizigarden/sets/cooptrol-kenjataimu-kzg020

It’s SO GOOD for dub! Your music’s making me want to buy that soundpack so bad! Thanks for sharing!

I use it for Dub Techno too. I really wish we could MIDI sequence a little desktop synth. Just to send a simple minor triad chord would be awesome!

I know this has been a request since the dawn of time. Not holding my breath. Sure as hell would simplify my studio though. I know they want us to just buy an A4 for that, but I simply don’t like the sound of stabs on the A4. :disappointed_relieved:

Some would say just use stab samples, but for Dub Techno I like to evolve the chord/stab sounds over the entire track via synth knob twiddling. Samples are cool but not great for that.

Yeah, their latest grooveboxes don’t play well with others :frowning:

2 posts were merged into an existing topic: A4 Feature Request

Idea: to control playbck by pages without arpegiator in live mode - possibility to choose the only page for loop playback (1,2,3 or 4 only)

I would LOVE to be able to copy/paste JUST the fx track for a kit. Mostly to get a consistent comp level across a whole project without having to go back and forth adjusting all of the kits used.

TIMPANI DRUM IN THE NEW os!

Honestly, I’m new to building patches and not that familiar with timpani, otherwise I’d build you a timpani patch for your AR.

I thought this also. Then I released I could just stick a bit of high power gaff tape on the bank button and BAM there you go.

YES

also yes

Haha, yes! Why no timpanis in the history of drum machines?? Obviously this is a much needed addition.

In all seriousness though, a timpani would actually be quite tough to model. It’s pretty complex timbrally. A couple of filters with some underlying bandpass filtered noise would be the most sane way to it I reckon. Perhaps you can get close with a SDFM(!) and an oscillating low pass filter.

EDIT: Oh, wait!

Sounds like there is a delay line in there? Cool.

Oooooh! A project! Sounds fun! I can hear the potential. I’ll see if I can get a patch going! If I can’t do it on the RYTM maybe I can make some samples from the A4.

If I get it, I’ll post it! Thanks for the idea, Simon!

GROOVE
Quantize > Import/Export

I would like to be able to import a certain groove from a loop …to be able to import that feel
thanks

Kits are basically a collection of sounds with various parameter adjustments. Makes sense to me that one should be able to start a new project and not have to copy and paste existing kits from project to project but merely go into the +Drive and load.

Would like to see a version of Overbridge that doesn’t pass audio/work as a soundcard but merely allows you to do tweaks and sound management as current Overbridge crashes my computer. I have separate outs to my soundcard anyways so I don’t need to pass audio via USB.

I would love to see expanded LFO shapes a la Novation Ultranova. Ones that act like sequencers/arps almost. I was using the random wave to modulate the pitch on a melodic synth sound and the possibilities occurred to me. Seems it wouldn’t be too resource hungry to implement. Like this:

Here’s my latest request.

“Pattern Bank Select Hold”

Some kind of Direct Jump-only/specific button combo.
For instance… Pattern Bank Button + Scale = Pattern Bank Select Hold.

This would allow a person to use all 10 fingers to direct jump between patterns in a pattern bank and hit that scale/fill button as well. Great for IDM/glitch styles.
Playing the patterns like notes, using the full facilities of all fingers, free from having to hold down a pattern bank button.

This, combined with rgb leds for patters, so i can make beats, breaks and fills different colors.

duh, you can copy/paste the settings of any page, filter, synth, comp etc. No need for a new feature for this :heart_eyes:
