a controller for the korg ER-1
Hi there,
I've been trying to have my ER-1 drum machine controlled by pd for a while and always failed at properly parsing NRPN messages using existing abstractions (I'm on winXP), so I decided to try to find a way to do this by myself. The attached abstraction is the result of this learning process. It is designed to control all the parameters of the first synth part of the machine, it can easily be modified to control any other part (synth or sample) using the Er-1's midi documentation (or any midi monitoring application).
the cool part of this is that it extends the sonic capabilities of this extraordinary little piece of gear by making you able to automate several parameters when the machine's inner automation system can only remember changes for one parameter. When I'm done with building one abstraction like this for all the parts, I should be able to lay down some pretty freaky rythm sequences (!).
Please feel free to use it if you own an ER-1 and let me know what you think of this.

Re: a controller for the korg ER-1
I had been trying to get Pd to communicate with my electribe es-1 mkii a while back but got hung up on all the NRPN stuff. At least I think it was that. Maybe if I go back to it now, with the stuff I have learned since then, I could possibly figure it out this time.... but anyway, there doesn't seem to be too much posted about NRPN on here.
I am at work right now, but I will check out this patch later. Hopefully it'll give me some clue as to how to get into the guts of my electribe.
