The Tenori-On at the Whitney
Yesterday I was playing together with Helga Davis and Lukas Ligeti at the Whitney Museum in New York. Everything went very well and we were using all of our crazy controllers including the Tenori-On..:-)
Here is our setup:
On the left side is my computer. I was using Max/Msp and Ableton Live with an RME Audio-Interface and the Emagic MT4 as the Midi-interface. My controllers were the Buchla Lightning II and the Tenori-on. On the right side is Lukas computer, also with Ableton Live controlled by Buchlas Marimba-Lumina.
In the next picture you can see the Display for the Lightning II in the foreground:
This time I also made an improvisation with the Tenori-On using only the Midi-Out to control different Synthesizers and Samplers in Ableton Live - this was a lot of fun !
Here is one photo in action during the soundcheck:

The Volume Layer
Actually, I am not very happy with the volume-control from the tenori-on. (R4)
I do not like the vertical style and I cannot do anything else on this page.
So I decided to make a kind of mixer-page on layer8.
Layer8 is one of the Random-Layers and I am not using all 4 of them anyway.
In the moment the 2 top rows are free for new ideas, but the other led´s work as kind of volume-slider. See here how you can set volumes:
The animation of the layer doen`t matter at all, so I put the animation-style to "simple" Size1, that it doesn`t bother me.
You find the new Volume Layer in the new update 0.96, which is availible on the left side of this blog. here is how it looks:

working with the version 0.952
Here you can see a video of working with the version 0.952.
Midi-Channel 1 is a synth-bass, controlled also by layer3 for the filter.
Layer 6 & 7 are playing the drums.
Layer 11 is for the sequenzer and Layer 15 is playing a pad.
Enjoy.

Version 0.952
After the concert on Sunday (which went well) I made a few adjustments and here is the release of version 0.952. (you find it on the left side of this blog)
Whats new?
The Midi-engine for channel1 is much more stable now, polyphony up to 16 voices - no more midi "hangs"...
If included a slider for the note-length now, I always had problems with handling some polyphonic tasks if i put the note length on the tenori-on to high - so the patch is now doing the job, and this works much better.
I am still not happy with the remote-mode. The status of the led`s is not always the status of the patterns or samples trigered in Live, and that makes it somehow quite confusing. If I want to find a solution I have to find out, if the led`s of the Tenori-On can be triggered by Midi-massages. If anybody has a hint for me it would be appreciated !
