No hurry! Take care down there!

Always about the RSF, there was already an OFFSET Pot which shift the notes over the timeline, it moves all the notes in the range of +/- the arpeggio length minus 1. It changes the starting Note.
So I added an option for the RSF which is " RSF follows OFFSET". When enabled the RSF becomes relative to the OFFSET, it moves with the notes on OFFSET changes and each note value keeps its resting state , disabled the RSF is static and resting steps always the same independently from the OFFSET and it’s not always the same notes which are off.

Maybe not clear but video will explain all that better :wink:

Not easy to explain, but I can imagine it :wink:

Hi and happy new year!

Is there any update on the project status?

Cheers,

Flavio.

The manufacturing was delayed cause they gave me a wrong bank account number, money was lost in the financial circuits during 6 weeks.
But good news money is back on my account this morning!!! :slight_smile:
The project resumes…

Hello,

Unfortunately, this project is again delayed, this time the reason is the corona virus :frowning:
I still wait for the boards… And I leave the country this night and during 6 weeks Grrrrrrr :confused:

But to cure your impatience here is final artwork for the desktop(midi only) version.

Best regards
Bruno

Someone left the door open and the light was on… So I had a quick look at the artwork…  This is like getting a lapdance from your favourite movie star but you can’t touch.!!  You sir are a tease, but I like you :)…     Queing patiently

Hi Bruno,

that Desktop case looks awesome!

Question: why did you plan 2 MIDI IN? Wouldn’t 1 MIDI IN just be enough, or do you have some features which can benefit from the 2 MIDI INs? Like assigning MIDI IN 1 to the (external) transpose function and MIDI IN 2 for MIDI Clock?

Also, is there any chance to have analog sync - at least DinSync (IN is the most important im my eyes, but eventually also OUT)?

I understand that most probably there will be no time/space for some design changes like the above, just curious! :slight_smile:

For MIDI in, in the App, there’s two kind of MIDI input:

  • The SYNTH, the NOTE On and Off which come from its selected input will fill the notestack of the Voices, others messages can be forwarded to the synth(CC pitchbend etc).
  • The CONTROL, CC will control the HAARP parameters, the Note On and Off will be use as realtime transpose of the whole arppegio Or to fill a dedicated notestack which is use for REPEAT function, for sequenced transpose. Those messages can be forwarded too as you can record them.
    About the Outputs, for the same reason and/or because there’s 8 voices then you will be able to connect directly 2 synth, of course more if you use their MIDI THRU.

There’s no DIN Sync or other 48ppqn sync like Korg, sorry.

Yep I just received the PCB, too late to change and no space to add others DIN connectors, but you can add it externally with any MIDI<>Sync interface. Or you maybe have a Drum machine which can do this job.
This interface can be done with a MB platform too :wink:

Hi All,

Here you can see all the necessary boards to build the HAARP.

Hello…

I hope everyone who is stranded at home has found a good occupation!

Here some picture of the Desktop version enclosure.

Shape of the side face, I found some ebony for the wood sides :wink:
Check of the assembly before paint.

Some more pictures in the .

Thank you Bruno for the great job!

I was thinking about “pure” analog clock (DinSync or just analog pulses), because I try to avoid any MIDI conversion… this is the reason why my actual main clock is coming from a Cirklon unit, which drives all my drum machines via DinSync (and also my TB-303). On the MIDI part, I only send notes, no clock information… :wink:

The other clock source I sometimes use, is Roland’s SBX-1 which also has DinSync…

Anyway, that’s not an issue with HAARP at all! Keep on going!

Hi,

Home-made desktop version finished.

It’s not perfect, but it’s a good idea of the final version.

Best regards
Bruno

Hi All!

Here the fabulous work from . The 2 casing prototypes he sent to me for checking.

In black and rainbow.

Very nice!

Très chic!

I’ve played a lot with Xfer’s Cthulu, a real arpeggiator in HW would be awesome.

Is there a way to get some boards / case to build one?

This one has a pot for each parameter, it changes the game! :wink:

Thanks!

I spent my free time of the two last month to get the firmware I wanted for it, that’s done
I started to write the manual during few days before leaving France for work but it seems coding in C is easier than setting a page or a column break in word software! ahah!
