An all Ndlr track. Casio VZ10m (main wobbly melodic bits), Access Virus, Novation Bass Station and Roland JV1080.

Decided the time was right to attempt some proper recording, rather than just phone videos - ran an Alesis LineLink from a mixer to a laptop, so no overdubs.

Tracks 1 & 2 have the NDLR in the driving seat, hooked up to a Modal Skulpt, Roland D-05, Arturia MicroFreak and Behringer Neutron, plus clocking a Korg Volca Drum. The Neutron is also patched to get CV pitch from the MicroFreak through one of the variable attenuators, so there's the option to use that or MIDI or just make them fight! Track 2 is my first attempt with the Chord Sequencer.

(If you're interested, track 3 is a no-name Telecaster copy with a hex pickup into a Roland GR-30 and a patch that combines the finest ROMpler cello with simulated guitar feedback. Track 4 is a Behringer Deepmind 6 using its own arpeggiator for most of it, and a few seconds of the MicroFreak for an additional chord.)

If you'd like a copy to keep, just make it known that you're a fellow NDLR-er (that doesn't look right  ) and I'll sort you out with a download code.

Hi,
I haven't received my NDLR yet but I'm wondering is there any way you can use borrowed or non-diatonic chords - or even just custom 'user' chords?

Thanks

Just had my NDLR delivered this morning! I had a chance to run home from work for lunch, and open it up and plug it in. Haven't had a chance to noodle, yet, but plugged it in and checked out all the menus. Looks great, and I can't wait to dive in this evening! 

One odd thing I noticed, is that the Pentatonic minor scale only shows 4 notes on the display. Anyone else notice this?

Hey everyone, 
my name is Jesse and I'm happy to be able to introduce myself as the newest member of the Conductive Labs team. I live here in Portland OR, where I organize entry level synthesizer DIY build workshops, as well as hosting a monthly synth jam through the Portland Synth Improvisor's Collective (PSIC). I am currently studying for an Electronics Engineering Technician AAS degree from Portland Community College where I am about a semester and a half away from graduating. 

I have been watching this project from early on and was lucky enough to be involved in the beta testing of the NDLR and see it grow into one of the coolest devices in my studio. It's my goal to bring everything I can to the table and make a good thing better. You'll likely be seeing me mostly in the support forum where I'll be doing my best to get up to speed and help free up Darryl's cognitive load.  It may take me a minute to learn the lay of the land and I humbly appreciate your patience while I get the hang of things.

Thanks very much for having me, I look forward to NDLing with you!

I am almost regretting buying this now... Haven't had the pleasure of playing with it yet. I am in Spain and I had to pay 130 euros in fees just to get it delivered, between national sales tax and import fees. That is almost half the value of the unit itself. I knew I would pay import fees but I thought it would be something reasonable. Now I ended up paying close to 500 euros for this product. That is a lot. It would be nice if you could sort out a European warehouse so the import tax costs could be calculated by whole sale stsndards and not retail, and we (the customer) would not be hit sooooo hard! I am sure most of us in Europe wouldn't have a problem with the price being slightly higher to get it... If it means not getting so screwed like I just did.
Best, 
A disgruntled future user.
BTW I am totally looking forward to trying this out but I have a sour taste in my mouth now... I'm sure that'll change once I see how awesome NDLR is.

I've been experimenting with custom knobs for my NDLR. I felt it deserved aluminum knobs. I'll be trying more varieties, but this attempt was a success! They look great, are just a hair slimmer than the oem plastic knobs, and have a great feel to them. They do not interfere with the encoder click. 

More to come as other knob options arrive.

So I have had the NDLR for a couple weeks now and while it is a great product I have a couple of things that I would love to see implemented:

1) I had a quick review through the forum and have seen this being asked for multiple times, but I'd like to re-iterate how nice it would be to have more control of the MIDI on signal for the Pad and Drone. I would absolutely love if pressing either the play button or any of the chord buttons would send a MIDI on signal and after a user defined (and modulatable) length of time later a MIDI off signal would be sent. 
2) not sure if this has been suggested before, but it is similar to number 1. I would love if you could select the number of times the motifs "loop". Essentially so you could press the play or chord button and have the motif arp play all the way through just once (or twice, etc.) and then stop.

Sorry if this is all duplicates of other threads, I just wanted to add my two cents.

hi!

How I can save my midi settings, so appear as defauly when I  turn on my NDLR?

Thanks a lot.
