I'm posting this largely to let everyone know that you can share rnbopack packages on our forum now.

Here is an example, this uses a few of the utilities that are already on the device, so you have a couple of prompts about overwriting patchers that you can ignore. This graph gives you a simple Karlplus-Strong synth that is tuned with scala. There are only 3 scales available in our example device  but someone could expand that easily.

This github repo houses the templates and also the Karplus-Strong synth that I used to create the sound:

Has anyone already managed to run RNBO on a Raspberry Pi 5? I got mine today and notices that it won't boot on the image provided by Cycling74. I seems to need debian bookworm.

. Once installed, this experimental alpha feature enables RNBO users to patch custom instruments and effects and export them to run on Ableton Move hardware.

For RNBO users, Move offers an amazing hardware platform for experimentation and prototyping instrument designs, featuring an 8 x 4 grid of pressure sensitive pads with RGB LEDs, 8 rotary encoders, MIDI I/O, stereo audio I/O, and numerous functional buttons. You can even draw custom graphics on the small display. 

RNBO Move Takeover provides a web-based interface where you can edit connections between multiple exported patches and fine-tune how the system works. This means you can create modular systems for Move that include separate sequencers, synths, effects, and more.

Note that RNBO Move Takeover does not work within the standard Move software. It is an alternative mode that entirely defines how the device should operate using RNBO exports. This also means that normal usage of the Move will be unaffected by RNBO, and you can easily switch between the two modes.

Learn more about RNBO Move Takeover features:

RNBO Move Takeover does not require an installation of Max or RNBO to run and edit graphs on the device, however 

 are required for development, authoring and exporting of patches.

We are interested in discovering what can be done with this feature along with the RNBO and Move communities. There are still many areas to improve as this feature solidifies and we engage with the ideas people bring to it. We hope that our many motivated and curious users will join us in exploring the possibilities and challenging our assumptions.

To get started, check out the Intro and Setup documentation:

I am trying to work with a Rasp Pi 2 W with the audio header "Codec Zero"

I can export my patches from RNBO to my Rasp but impossible to use the header as soundcard. 

The Web Interface screen "audio is off" when I try to select "zero" as audio interface (and my RNBO export windows says "load config rnbo-<myraspName>._oscjson._tcp.local.-rnbo_<myraspName>" infinitely. )

https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/accessories/audio.html

Is someone already worked with this config? Any idea about?

I use RNBO’s rnboscript almost every day—it’s a fantastic tool for sample-level sound synthesis and processing.

Coding with codebox and codebox~ in RNBO, however, becomes very inconvenient as the code gets longer. It would be great to have an object like [js] or [v8] that allows the use of an external editor.

The Rpi 4B I am using does not show in the target export window. I manually added the address of the pi, but it still shows it as not connected. Wireless connection is otherwise working on the pi.

Other things I've tried to troubleshoot this issue:

Verify connection: I verified everything is correct in setup from the tutorial. Username is pi, hostname is unchanged, updated through terminal. I can SSH into the pi from my laptop and send and receive files, etc. 

Updates and installing dependencies:  I suspect it might have something to do with the way the raspberry is configured. I ran into an error for "sudo apt-get install jack_transport_link rnbo-runner-panel," which gives the error: 

"E: Unable to locate package jack_transport_link

E: Unable to locate package rnbo-runner-panel"
