and I was thinking….
wouldn’t it be cool to have step events for track tempo multipliers?
So that tracks can run at variable speed by themselves?
I haven’t thought about the details, but I’m sure I’d find a use for it…
Maybe in conjunction with the effector… one track decides at what speed the other tracks will run.. uuhh nice…September 29, 2008 at 15:00 #1849Attila SikParticipantme to !….i keep wishing the octopus had this so we can do some really quirky stuff ! superb ideas

February 10, 2009 at 08:25 #2239George StobbelaarParticipantgreat idea!! … why not going a bit wilder with a step event on bpm?? 👿
I have no idea if this is possibleFebruary 12, 2009 at 15:40 #2266Attila SikParticipantnice idea////
i think the problem is that this takes equencing into realms not everyone wants to enter – some people love autechra for instance and beats you cannot dance to and some regard this as nonsense , i persoanlly think the future of sequencing will evolve more into humanisation and non repetative cyclic music – its only 4/4 and square so much as much music technology forces or encourages people to work in a square fashion – much like building houses – its harder to build a round house than 4 walls….i’m drifting but tempo multipliers and tempo controlled by step atrributes would really push the boat out , so much can be done already however using track multiples…its very easy to make ‘ unsquare ‘ sequences in the octopus if your into the organic witha little swing and oddness – everytime i turn this machine on it blows me away but i can see a real pleasure in controlling multipliers with step attributes and tempo ! …..a demented kind of pleasure mind you…..!.

The P3’s aux events cover tempo/timebase changes (as well as a host of other stuff) and you can automate them, use accumulators to progressively change or morph them etc. etc.
I imagine lots of us have more than one synth so owning more than one sequencer can also be a good thing.February 18, 2009 at 13:16 #2272Attila SikParticipantyeah the p3s funky !… i only wish i had enough space for more gear , i very nearly bought one a a few years back – last one colin was doing but i then got onto the octopus ….. i do agree – multiple sequencers is cool and like multiple external synths leads to a different set of results – i will admit my sequencer desires have been severly quenched since i got the octopus though.I think the p3 was ahead of its time and remains a bit of a classic . . .maybe a p4 oneday ?
