Roli seaboard + mpe object


#1

Hello.

Im trying to use the midi/ctrl/mpe object with roli seaboard rise49, connected the roli directly to the usb port on axoloti, i dont get any input, is there anybody who could help with this ?

thanks !


#2

Are you powering the seaboard with a power supply? Some controllers might not get enough power from the Axoloti over USB.


#3

the roli has a full battery inside.. also tried with a powersupply
ive seen videos of people using it with axoloti.. and with computer the roli works perfectly..
im wondering if there is some settings in roli software to be made..

hello !

still wondering about this,
the roli works if i open the tutorial demo patch with the mpe object, but if i put it on my own patch and connect everyting exactly the same way, there is nothing happening ?
it seems the mpe object is not sending out any triggers from the gate outs ?
anyone with any experience on these ?

thank you !

I don't have a MPE controller, but are you sure you connected everything the same way?
- gate outs aren't even connected, amplitude is controlled by "pressure" outlet
- there's a note that reminds you of setting subpatch mode to "polyphonic expression"


#6

yes but when i check the settings of that demo patch it is not in the "polyphonic expression" mode, i tried it anyway and it does not make a difference..

i know in this patch the pressure is controlling the vca, but shouldnt the gate out still send some trigger when connected ?
i also tried to build a copy of the demo patch with exactly the same setup and it does not work

The help patch has a subpatch called "mpe voice". Click "edit" to look inside - it has its own settings menu and is set to "polyphonic expression". I guess that'll be it.
Regarding the gate outlet I agree, there should be something.
