Sujet Machinedrum MKII + Midi

Sending Program Changes (2011)
Just a bit of a quick Gush and heads up for anyone who hasn’t tried it yet:
Last night I decided it would be nice to handle program changes from the MD to control my G2 and Waldorf Pulse. That way i can select the patch and program the riff all direct from the MD. It took a bit of messing about on each machine plus a tweak to my MOTU midi patchbay
settings to get everything working but once done, it was ace.
I have always enjoyed midi sequencing on the MD but being able to pick the patches as
well is the bees knees. It’s like turning the MD into a workstation. If you haven’t tried this I reccommend you give it a go. Think I am going to try picking my effects units patches from there too, although that is less important than the synths.
Is it possible to do this and create an almost instant recall setting when changing patterns or loading up your work? Or do the program change messages only leave the MD when you literally change the settings. -Ipassenger
it’s great, isn’t it?
if you p-lock the bank/program on the first note of a pattern/track then the md will send the message and change the patch automatically when the MD changes to that pattern/track.
the *really* great thing is that it only does it once when the pattern changes, so you can tweak the synth/fx parameters on the slave machine and they won’t be reset each time the MD starts the loop again.
(you have to be in extended mode for this to work, of course) -Bauer
But you’re right, Bauer, with p-locks you can do some really cool things. Not only can you lock the patch change to the pattern, turn the effect (or synth) on and off, but you can also
p-lock CCs to change the values of your effect parameters and then put slides inbetween the p-locks. I’ve got the MD basically acting like a someone sitting on the floor tweaking the knobs of my delay pedal. You get some really cool effects by sliding time, mix, and repeat parameters -Zwolf

si tu mets le PC dans la config "piste MD" et que tu ne le Plock pas sa marche !
