Maybe it would be interesting that the notes getting mirrored stay in the same octave, like having a mirror at the same position in every octave on the keyboard.

Do you think it is possible to create a note like this?
While I could certainly recreate that functionality in a Node, I am a bit wary of copying another developer's device especially one that's so unique and recently released, so while you're not the first to request this I will probably refrain.

That being said I'm not sure how your tweak would work, if you mirror within an octave. Let's say the mirror point is a B, and you play an A, or any note really. The mirroring would end up in the next octave if I'm picturing this correctly.

Without wanting to be too demanding, I noticed that few parameters are Delta are accessible from the controls of a Combinator (4 years old Rotarys 4 buttons).
But maybe this has already been asked ? Knowing that the interface is empty when Delta starts, it may not be easy to code ?
Unfortunately due to the dynamic and custom display driven nature of Delta, exposing more stuff to those knobs/automation etc is not really possible. I assume you are hoping for rotary control of specific node parameters, and at the moment this is totally impossible. I have a potential work around for this, but its pretty complicated, both from a implementation and usability standpoint, so I don't really have an ETA or want to guarantee it'll even work.

I can perfectly understand, that you don't want to rebuild something so unique.

You are right, the notes would end up in another octave in many cases. But essentially they would not be far away from their origin note.

Hello everyone, excited to bump the thread to announce that V1.3 is now live!

1.3 brings another new node, the manually controlled Trigger Switch with a separate input for stepping through its pattern.

Image

It also has a new setting for hiding node names, as well as some other minor fixes and under the hood improvements!

Not sure if it's possible, but it would be cool if Delta could be sensitive to where in the measure a note fell. Maybe whichever sixteenth note each note falls closest to relative to the master clock. For example, transpose the "1" of every bar down an octave. Or to make the sixteenth note offbeats lower in velocity. Etc.

Thanks to the Dev for such a great device! I have a feature request. A probability module where you simply set the probability of the note passing through from 0-100%

I have a very specific use case. I love writing generative rhythms with Drum Sequencer player and I want to be able to replicate these patterns using a Beatstep Pro for live performance. I can achieve something close using Delta by dividing the drum pads with an 'If' module and then setting probability with a 'Chance Switch' but the work around has two flaws. First, I can't figure out the maths for the module 'weight' control acheive an exact percentage chance. Second if I have a Delta patch set up with a Chance switch for every drum pad, then there is no way of making the probability of a pad 100% without removing the Chance switch module for that pad or adding another connection.

This is a very cool idea, I will add it to the list!

Perhaps this excerpt from the manual will help you understand how weighting equates to percentages: https://i.imgur.com/EB6vHUE.png

The mindset for this is that it is much more straightforward to expose to controls. Imagine if you had 3 outputs on a chance switch, all set to 33%, instead of weights. Then you want to change one to 50%. Where does that 17% difference from from? There's ways to reason it out, but all of them seemed to have downsides or frustrations, so I went with this weighting option which kinda freed up the notion of ensuring all odds added up to 100%.

Perhaps there's something I'm missing, but if you are breaking out each drum pad with an If and want to give a specific pad a 100% chance to play, why run it through a Chance Switch at all?

Thanks I will Rtfm! Re, why run through the chance switch at all, because I would like a preset delta patch I can tweak without having to reroute for different scenarios. I have had wonderful success though and it wouldn't be possible without Delta , so thank you for your work!

I use an if to separate the pads and another to single out the notes I want to randomize using a specific velocity (Set on the beatstep). So if I want notes to be random I set them to vel. 99 for example and the rest at 100 or whatever.

Hi Socram

Is there a node, possibility to create a node, that treats a chord as a single unit instead of 3 or 4 different notes? For example in chance, I would want sometimes that it would go through one or the other, sometimes it plays, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it goes through delay, sometimes it doesn't, or sometimes it goes through main output, others through CV 1 or 2, etc. Is this even possible?

Kind regards

Yes this is actually something I've been wanting to add for a bit, I will make do what I can to make it a higher priority, Delta is overdue for an update :D

I don't have Delta, but I'm certainly going to buy it one of these days/sales. I'm curious if Delta is capable of doing what InRange (Tonicmint) does? If I can build something in Delta that does what InRange does, I'll just put the money toward buying Delta.

Yes with a bit of setup Delta can do every feature I saw demonstrated in that video, most things in just a few nodes, the whole feature set would be a bit more complicated if put into 1 Delta instance but still doable.

Credit where its due, Delta will of course have a very different visual presentation and not be as immediate to set up, but once you save the patch you'll be set, and then you can do all the other crazy things Delta offers alongside this functionality.

Great! Thanks for the quick reply, Marcos. I like how fast and easy it would be to throw InRange in the player stack, but I can't justify spending the extra money if Delta can do the same thing. I think I'll just put that money toward Delta in the future. Thanks again!

Is there a 'choke' feature or an override for note streams?
What I mean is, say I have either a sequential switch or a chance switch which runs into 2 delays, into the output: once I have triggered the second note and the second delay starts running, I want the previous delay module to immediately stop outputting notes.
I hope that makes sense

Hey zoidkirb, great question! There is a way to achieve this using the Input Node's "Auto-Stop" parameter, but unfortunately it will only work if you are using a Chance Switch and not with a Sequential Switch (I'll explain why below).

The Auto-Stop parameter applies a "Stop All" every X number of notes. If set to 1, each new note will cause a Stop All to occur before it fires itself. If set to 2, it will Stop All every other note, etc etc.

Here's a screenshot of one way to set it up:

Image

This will not work with the Sequential Switch because a Stop All forces Sequential Switches to reset their pattern to the start, which means you'll never hit the later steps of the pattern. Chance will not run into this issue due to its random nature.

During initial development a Stop All node was planned, but it proved to be a race condition nightmare and very unintuitive in testing. Doing it at the Input Node was a compromise to get back some of that functionality.

I hope you're enjoying Delta, let me know if you have any other questions!

Hey Socram thanks a lot! Yes that works I think exactly as I wanted. I prefer the Chance node generally anyway as what I'm doing with Delta is mostly generative types of music.
No more questions for now until I master the rest of the existing modules

I am currently playing around and use Scales&Chords and again it makes me angry, that it lacks so many easy features. I always missed a way to control the velocity of the additional notes, like having all upper notes with decreasing velocity. Here is an example: with 3 notes in a chords
Note #1 => Velocity 1.0
Note#2 => Velocity 0.7
Note #3 => Velocity 0.5

Can Delta Midi Computer do this?

And yea, i know i can build it via CVPT but damn, its too much work for such simple things...

notes feeding a sequential sequencer then each note out going to an individual set velocity node. perhaps not the best method but it wasnt much work
