> Hey guys just got my organelle yesterday. I tried playing with the sampler and so far have managed to get it to work but the main problem I’m having is hearing the source while I’m recording the sample. Anyone know if it’s possible to hear what you are recording?

In this thread Owen outlines a super simple edit that can be applied to virtually any patch to allow the input to pass through “clean”. I don’t know a whole lot about pd but so far adding this little chunk into patches like polybeats, metronome, basic poly etc has worked for my devices.

That being said I have noticed some slight changes in the signal depending on the patch, especially when used in an effects chain.
