    It's very pleasant to hear someone talking about Norns/grid ecosystem and demistifying it while being funny at the same time, it makes it very enjoyable for me to watch. I've been overflowed by all the infos I can get about all Monome stuff and this is refreshing !

    Thanks for this. I built a Norns shield and its cool but its not quite clicking with me yet. You just explained why I need it - immediacy. Experiment and get results quickly vs spending hours fiddling with a DAW and ending up with shit. Now I can justify building a Grid. Best Norns video I've watched so far!

      get on a synth forum and look for secondhand. some people build diy for themselves (just for lols) and then discover it's not for them or they are more about the process and not the music. win/win

    • @AtTheTableGames
      @AtTheTableGames  Před 3 lety +1

      not a dumb question at all! the short answer is yes and no. i mean, technically you can do this sort of basic thing with literally any looper. but the automated pitch shifting is fairly unique to mlr. like i said in the video, i kinda can’t explain why this particular looper results in the happy accidents it does while other loopers just don’t for me. but yes, if you’re just looking for multiple asynchronous loops, pickup machines can do that job for sure

    • @temporary_terpenes
      @temporary_terpenes Před 3 lety +1

      I'm new to Norns and the concepts of the architecture. I believe MLR is script that ties the Softcut engine together with the Monome Grid as a controller. The Softcut engine can be accessed on it's own with other scripts on the Norns is what I can gather. monome.org/docs/norns/softcut/

      you are correct, yeah. didn’t build it myself, but i’ve found it to be a useful alternative. the build quality is nowhere near as beefy as the monome grid, but it costs considerably less if you DIY it, so all in all it’s pretty worth
