Hello NOODLERS,

happily mine made it thru customs a few days ago, so i had some time to get in touch with that lovely device. 
i´m pretty stunned about the posibilitys to controll the functions via cc messages. 
i´m currently using a Keystep getting synced by the NDLR to have tempo and key synced arpeggios and a Behringer BCR 2000 to change parameters like Position of Pad/Drone/Motifs, their length etc. 
When i change one parameter at a time it works fine but when i change more at a time the NDLR seems to get a bit overwhelmed and tends to crash or freeze. It goes that far that even start/stop all parts doesnt help. 
Im running Firmware 1.1009
Does anyone know a solution ?  


Thanks in advance !

I'd like to see a feature where the NDLR can accept a note or chord via a specified MIDI-IN channel (user assigned).
It then reads that chord or note and transposes the MOTIF (or possibly the root note). I'm fairly sure the open source MIDIPal code had an algorithm that was able to do this (I'd need to confirm this tho).

A similar feature is in the Roland JD-XI (for reference) it is called the Interactive Chord mode.

I guess the issue is to decide whether we're sticking to the chord progression rules of the root note - or changing the root note completely. Or maybe both could be an option.

Hi Steve and Darryl, the support on the site seems not active. But I have a question about the shipment of  of my NDLR.

The delivery address is in the Netherlands. But the last tracking update says:

"February 3, 2019, 5:38 pm 
Departed 
BEIJING, CHINA 
Your item departed a transfer airport in CAPITAL, BEIJING, CHINA on February 3, 2019 at 5:38 pm. The item is currently in transit to the destination."

Seems pretty far out for a shipment to the Netherlands. Is there a error or do I have the wrong tracking number?

Best regards,

Hi all,

Got my NDLR yesterday and dreaded this moment because once again i had to learn a new instrument and its functions, well it turned out NDLR is pretty straight forward and easy to learn. However after menu diving for a day i decided to recreate the first part of the youtube video made by Genshi :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp-J9NpEEx0

Got the scale set to Mixolydian and sus2 just like in the video but not matter which pattern i choose for motif 1 it will have a wierd voicing and will sound nothing like the video when i press the I + III + V + IV

Pattern is in CHORD mode and i assume same thing is done in the video.

Any ideas why i'm not getting the same type of voicing ?

I have tried other pattern position and pattern editing and voicing just comes out very odd at least on the III button.

Firmware v1.1.009

NDLR arrived last week and most of my spare time has been taken up decorating a room. 

2x 30mins sessions I have managed to grab had me disappearing down various rabbit holes. Can see I’m just scratching the surface of this wonderful bit of kit. Not sure what I’m doing most of the time but I’m NDL’ing and loving it. 

All good thoughts

hi, yesterday I've received my ndlr and started to use it with an Ultranova.
I have a 1 rack AE modular (backed on KickStarter as the ndlr), but I don't know how to use it with the ndlr.
Do I need a "cv to midi" or something like that?
I'm not a professional user and ndlr and Ae modular are the first hardware of this kind that I own
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi!
I think I found a bug.
My NDLR chrashes when I'm doing the following:
Going to MOD MATRIX, chosing a Mod Source, setting Mod Destination to MICI CC #1
and then when I turn Mod Source to "SCR OFF" again, it crahes.

As far as I can tell now it only crashes when I have set Mod Destination to "MICI CC #1" not when I chose any other Mod Destination (like MICI CC #2 etc..)

Can anyone reproduce this behavior?

btw: I have FW v1.1.014 installed but problem still exists.

BI don’t know if I’m missing something or not but if anyone can help me out here i’d Be grateful.

I’m trying to use an external midi keyboard to transpose the patterns / pad / drone. I’ve connected my keystep via 5 pin midi A and set the trans input in the settings to the correct midi channel but I cannot get the nldr respond to the keystep output. The output is working and on the correct channel as it works if I set it to the control input and use the same midi channel To control the chord and black as expected.
My question is, does the trans input do what I assume it does and transpose the patterns from the keyboard and if so then what am I doing wrong?

As I wait for my NDLR to rise to room temperature (it arrived by courier van, and where I'm at IT'S COLD)
I'd first like to comment on the stellar packing job. It was packed better than any instrument I can remember from any manufacturer- ever; job well-done guys! It doesn't seem like a 'homegrown' production imo- very professional presentation of which I am extremely impressed. Little things like this matter, so I wanted to commend Conductive Labs setting a precedent of excellence for Kickstarters everywhere! .

And don't think I didn't notice the build quality- 10 out of 10- even the screen protector is quality and I may not even remove mine

Seriously CL, it's nice to see you really care about this product. I've backed a kick starter in the past that was close to garbage in build quality and the developer is an a-hole who made function promises 3 years ago that still haven't been implemented- even though all the backers paid for the extra functions.

You guys are clearly on the path to success. If this is your first effort, I can't wait to see what you do in the future!


All the best!

My NDLR just arrived in the mail, so this is my first post. Excited to dig in!

Was checking out the various options and got an idea. Title says it all. I think it would be interesting to be able to modulate the global tempo using the modulation matrix. I was looking at Appendix A. MIDI CC (Control Change) Implementation and was thinking I could potentially send the MIDI CC LFO signal back into the NDLR, but being able to directly select it in the destination option would be slicker. 

Also, in Appendix A I stumbled upon this:

Quote:NOTE: CC messages 75-79 (4Bh-4Fh) are used as inputs sources (#12-#16) to the Modulation Matrix
