Re: Collaborating over the internet

it's a good suggestion but a huge job to implement, several years to do that properly. Also we'd need to by a big data center to handle audio flows. impossible for us. senso+++ Sorry, I wasn't very clear - the central idea would be to share OSC data mainly and synchronise mirrored patches in a simp...

Re: Collaborative MIDI over the internet

Anyone interested in networked collaborative music - check out Netpd! http://www.netpd.org It's a system built in Pure Data (vanilla) that creates a set of synchronised sequencers and instruments using OSC across remote computers. Sending audio / midi / (osc?) into it from Brain Modular is totally p...

Re: Collaborating over the internet

I have found a slightly old Puredata project that explores this idea in a very interesting way. If anyone knows their way around Puredata - check out Netpd https://www.netpd.org/ . It runs on 'vanilla' pd with a few externals.

I'm sure Brain Modular could integrate something like this!

Re: Collaborative MIDI over the internet

Someone has pointed me to this: https://www.artsmesh.com/ for collaborative sound and OSC over the internet
I'll see if I can get it going with BrainModular OSC output

Collaborating over the internet

Further to a thread I started over here: https://brainmodular.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6646 I'd like to suggest a simple interface within BrainModular for working with people over the internet - it would be great if you could give yourself a simple ID and send/receive invitations that would en...

For anyone else trying out this sort of thing: If you want to find your public IP address (what people will need to find you over the internet): use http://ip4.me To find your local IP address (the address of your computer beyond than the router): on a mac go to System Preferences, Network, and it s...

Re: Collaborative MIDI over the internet

ok, thanks. i'm having a go with the osc send and receive to see how that works but not much luck so far - I can get some data going out and I can see it coming back in with the Trace window but the OSC receive module (with the same address) isn't getting anything at all.

thanks, that sounds good! I don't know anything about Patch Sharing - is it a feature available without the licence?

Collaborative MIDI over the internet

Hi all, In this strange time of self-isolation I am probably not the only one looking for ways to make live music with others over the internet. I have never found a good way to do this due to problems like latency, glitches, etc. A normal 'jam' seems pretty much impossible but I wondered if there m...

Re: Piano Roll Event Outlet

This is great news! Thanks! BUT! - link two piano rolls via array out to array in. put one note on channel 1 and another on channel 2. I can see that the array now has the information in it, unfortunately the piano roll doesn't seem to recognise it properly at the 'array in' - everything on roll 2 i...

Re: Piano Roll Event Outlet

I was really hoping the new HH would bring a solution to this!

All midi events from a file in piano roll still get squashed into one midi channel when they pass out of the array outlet...

Any chance of a new midi module to get around this?

I'm not sure i understand the technicalities of backward compatibility, but could a second 'events' inlet/outlet pair be added to the pianoroll - something like 'multichannel events' - which could handle the multichannel midi in either of the ways suggested? or could a switch be added that offers th...

Nobody else interested in multichannel arrays from midi piano-roll?

Apart from building some sort of script to parse midi files I can't see any other way to be able to do fun things with manipulating midi file data outside real-time

Currently the event outlet of the Piano Roll seems to put all the midi events onto channel one only - if you send the event stream from one roll to another you'll see them going to channel 1. For the purposes of manipulating the event information as an array - sorting and swapping values etc, it wou...

I've managed to work out how to manipulate the event arrays that come out of the midi piano roll using some elaborate combinations of get and set arrays to achieve some of what i wanted - a steep learning curve! one main problem with it - the event arrays lose the midi channel information so everyth...

Just to add to the confusion - I'm just having a play around with the regular Array Combine and Invert Combine modules to see how they work and for some reason the Combine Inverse x3 can only handle values between 0 and 1 - anybody else get this?

Hi, Not sure if this has come up already - I had a search and couldn't see anything...

Any news on this? A Combine Inverse x5 would be very useful for untangling the midi event streams out of the Piano Roll.
