Ambient patches

Hi, just wondering if anyone has any ambient/generative/drone etc. patches they are open to share? I would like to test them on my 15 pot axo to get more comfortable with patching. Much thanks to any ideas!

Hi @dungeontroll666, I just started to play with a Axolctrl this week.

Not sure if that match what you have in mind but I've been patching the Mutable Instrument Element reverb and Clouds port.
I focused mostly on get the potentiometer and screen working, no so much on the logic of the patch itself.

Cloud (clds) has been quite a challenge as the DSP load easily 100%. I managed to get it to work nicely by removing all the UI element (dial and button).

Let me know if you're interested, I'll be happy to share what I've got.

Hi! I'd love to check it out. Just seeing what others are putting together helps to learn. Thanks!

Alright, so here it is.
Axoctrl_light_clds_reverb is the patch.
clds is a modified version of fx/clds.

I removed option (dial, ration) that I didn't need and tweak the "Density" parameter to avoid the CPU to go 100%.
I read here that it can help save on SRAM

“Cheap” Hook for 15 potentiometers

the first thing to do would be to remove the UI control, this is not needed when used in conjunction with pots, then you use a 'hook inlet' , to tell it the hook state has changed - you could also use a int8_t for the state variables, which will save a bunch more. from there, gets more complex, you could create an object which has many hooks in one object, assuming a/b are global to them all. by doing this there are various optimisations you can make - e.g. combining the states into 2 bit vari…

It's made for a Axoctrl boxes, so a lot of what going on it managed by hohum object (getting the value of the pot).
I also used the tiar OLED object to display the result on the screen.

Finally I add a limiter at the end of the chain as the feedback option on clds can be wild.

I add comments, hope this is helpful.
