I'd like to see more MIDI options in the mapping screen - for example gates (note on/off) and pitch bend. I often use MIDI to send gates, and pitch bend would allow some interesting things with MPE controllers.

In the interim I've been using the four CV inputs to receive triggers/gates... but I've noticed that the CV inputs have between 1-3ms of jitter when mapping them to trigger outputs. That's fine for most CV but quite a bit for gates & triggers (there's also ~1ms latency which is expected). The issue compounds with the 1.28 mapping screen: converting gates at the CV input to MIDI CC seems to add a little bit of jitter, and MIDI receivers tend to prioritize gates over MIDI CC data, so even more jitter is added on the other end of the chain.

All that to say: if note on/off (& pitchbend!) were available on the mapping screen it would make the most of the limitations of MIDI.

This firmware is really a big leap for the NerdSeq. I'm having so much fun playing with it. Thanks for letting us use it before it's 100% ready!!

Notes as gates should be possible though. But as I see it now it would be either only one defined note or a note in general. That should do the job, right? Also the note value and the velocity value could be a nice source.

There is by design a jitter of 1-2ms since the processing is each millisecond while the readout of the CV inputs (which is multiplexed) runs also around that speed (totally fine for recording etc). But indeed added up it might create a little jitter of 1-3 ms (hehe still much better than your USB Midi interface ;-)  ).
So nothing I can change about that.

Hi,
Thomas this is amazing,
So much looking forward for this huge update !
Talking about MIDI options in the mapping screen, could there be available in the sources of the mapping screen velocity, aftertouch, for interesting expressivity, and midi CC, to quickly add knobs and button to control envelops or lfo or whatever else ?

Or maybe I am just tired and have forgot waht 120 bpm should sound like ( I do not think so though).

I have some questions about the mapping matrix.
Is it possible to "mute" a row?
I found mapping for euclidian density (mapping CV in), but can you change the offset in the mappings?

The mapping is great

It’s late and you don’t have a feeling for rhythm anymore! :-)

No just kidding. I will check it out.

Still running at 4 times less than normal speed. Only thing that I have not done is re-f

Contrats for this fantastic firmware!

I've got a small question, there is something I've been willing to do since the day I bought the More CV 16 expander:
I'd like to use the FX columns of my patterns to be able to sequence the CV coming out from the CV16 expander outputs.
Tell me if I'm wrong, but there don't seem to be any FX in track in "modular" mode to control the CV16 outputs values, so I thought with this firmware I could use the Mapping Setup to implement this.

The 16 special variables #A-#P seem to be the perfect way to achieve this, mapping each of them to a individual CV16 output.
But I couldn't find the way to put CV values in those variables from the pattern editor.

I found a dirty cheat using "FX3-4 Probability" from each pattern as 2 assignable variables (with values between 0 and 64), assigning them with FX1-FX2 in pattern editor (or in patch menu).
It works... but it is less than ideal: burns 2 FX columns for nothing, and no precise CV assignment (only 64 possible values)

I am missing something easier?
Are variable and|or NSA values editing from (pattern FX columns + patch menu) something that you plan to implement in a future firmware?

Cheers!
