I have set up some buttons on my Korg nanoKONTROL 2 to switch between Drone types (middle line on the Drone display), which works fine. The changes are reflected on the display reliably, but the middle line always goes yellow, even if the NDLR is set to the Position (top) or Trigger (bottom) line. When this happens the NDLR has two lines highlighted in yellow instead of one. This is a visual thing only, it stays in the correct mode (so, for example, if I had set Position mode, the knob still changes the Position). I don't think this is a refresh problem, I wouldn't expect it to change the colour at all.

Hope this makes sense. There may be other similar glitches, but that's all I've tried so far.

This popped up in my You Tube feed over the weekend. A very interesting way of using the NDLR... 

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to connect my mac with the NDLR and my DX7.

My setup looks as follows:
Mac (running Patch Base) -> NDLR via USB -> DX7 midi in via NDLR MIDI out. 
So basically, the NDLR cannot send the Sysex info to the DX7.
Does anyone of you have a suggestion on how I can use Patch Bay and NDLR at the same time? 

Thanks!

Hi there

This may be a dumb question but trying to follow the ideas in a 'Secrets of Dance Music Production' book and on page 148 it suggests a common progression example is I IV V vi I. Note the minor  Thanks

Hi,
I tried to control the entire NDLR with Pyramid by Squarp. The problem is that NDLR doesn’t respond well when lots of CCs are coming in simultaneously. Some of messages are skipped in an unpredictable way. It is very frustrating...
What’s your experience in controlling NDLR with external MIDI devices?
Best regards,
GABI

I for one would really like to have the ability to adjust screen brightness in the same way as one can on the Korg Minilogue XD (which has a similar type of modern LCD display). This would make a huge difference for people like myself with light sensitivity issues. It would provide a much more comfortable and much less eye-straining experience. Especially with all menu-diving required to get the most out of the NDLR. I hope this is possible. Thanks!

Hi everyone

First post!  Super happy to join the community!

I just finally got the time to play with my NDLR and noticed something weird. I'm running the NDLR as master and sending clock with MIDI OUT A to my Elektron Model Samples just to receive start/stop messages. (all my hardware is also connected via Midi Out A so I know the port works fine).

The start/stop messages are being sent and received, but the tempo on the Model Samples is WAY off... Like quite a few BPMs off  Everything works fine, I checked all the settings on the NDLR and the Model Samples and can't figure this one out... The patterns I have on the NDLR are straight forward 16 steps, nothing crazy and nothing to do with different time signatures or pattern lengths messing up with how it all sounds together. It's just not working and that makes me sad.

Am I doing something wrong?

Greetings,

Is there a way to select a subset range of keys that will change NDLR note instead of all keys, (e.g. c2-c3)?  That way I can use left hand to play along and change NDLR note, while using other hand to play something totallly different that does not influence NDLR note change.

Cheers

I've posted a new track on SoundCloud, another all Ndlr one take tune.

https://soundcloud.com/broken-gadget/taking-the-cure

Access Virus on drone
Alesis Fusion on guitar harmonics
Novation Bass Station on percussive riff.

Sounds like Vini Reilly eloping with Kluster.

Thanks for the nice comments on the previous tracks!
