Accent on DrumMachine

dnz's icon

Hi,

I'm puzzled about how i can create an Accented steps on my drum
machine. Can anyone shed some light? i tried using line~ 1. and
accented by sending 2. to line~. but it doesn't really work.

any help would be great!
thanks

You could use [adsr~ ] to shape the enveloppe of your samples, and use
a different enveloppe (louder, faster attack) for accented notes.

You send the 2. once (to *~, not to line~ btw), but don't go back, it
will remain there till you close the patch. It works, but you accent
everything, which doesn't make any difference...

You should learn to track down this kind of problems yourself. I don't
know of any online/book instructions how to learn such a thing, but its
an essential skill for maxin'. (Maybe others know of resources.)

Most important: don't give up.
Usually there is a reason for every behaviour.

you need some kind of coll or data table to say which hits are accented. then read that table as each beat is triggered.

metro can be annoyingly unstable, be warned, but it does for simple patches
