Modules for the Orac

Hi folks! I’ve set for myself what I presume is a pretty easy modification to the Arper utility.

My eventual goal is to get the point where I understand PD enough to modify the Arp’s behavior in any number of ways, but my immediate goal is to simply edit in an option to walk up and down held/latched notes (ie: holding down CEGB and getting out a loop of CEGBGEC, etc).

As with many on this board, I really struggle to find the time to learn Pure Data to any useful degree, but this is something that feels necessary enough to how I want to utilize the organelle that the matter feels more or less forced!

Anyhow, if this sort of thing is dead simple to anyone here to the degree that, without sacrificing their own time, they could toss out some bones of advice as to what bits of the patch I should be experimenting with, I would be most appreciative!

hey, thanks so much for all these modules. I’m not sure how to install them. Whenever I try to unzip the folders and place it the the usb/orac/modules, it doesn’t show up on the organelle.
The only modules that I could install successfully were the .zop ones. Thanks

just wanna drop in to say thank you electrafa so much !! These are some of my favourite and most used modules for Orac 2

truly inspiring for me to begin learning PD

:pray:

I’m also wondering if anyone has made a Delay for Orac that is clock-synced and uses ‘common’ subdivisons (1/8, 1/16, 1/32 etc)

I’ve noticed the patch from WyrdAl available here :

the stereodelay patch has a midisync option and seems to mostly be in time :wink:

closest I’ve found

any recommendations would be ace !

If a module like this doesn’t exist yet - I guess I’ve got my extra motivation to learn PD !

hey @WyrdAl
I decided to remove dust today on my good old Organelle.
I’ve load notgen and remember something that i’ve never take time to ask : the probability parameter of the C note can’t go under 50.
I don’t know how to change that ? Thanks, i like a lot this module.

I see there is a typo in the module.json, you can try replacing the module.json in notegen with the one here:

Yes it worked ! Thanks :slight_smile:

Check out echofreq

Hey thanks for the recommendation !

Where can I find echofreq ?

It’s on my github repo: https://github.com/adbrant/orac2_modules/tree/master/usermodules/fx/echofreq
This has the same tempo sync as stereodelay (which should pick the nearest 16th note to the set length).

Amazing, thank you ! I’ll be trying a couple of different things from your GitHub too by the looks too n_n

I’ve been using the new prairieloops patch from C&G a lot so I decided to port it to ORAC:

One nice possibility with ORAC is you can use a sequencer module to sync the loops to midi :slight_smile:

Newbie here. Anyone know if there’s a patch that can emulate an auto-wah effect for Orac?

Envelope FX would do the trick, but I don’t think I’ve seen it adapted for use as an orac module yet.

Hi all I’m experimenting with Ableton Link and having trouble getting the Transport clock module to sync properly. The bpmSeq clock works great, but I like some of the features of the Transport clock so curious if anyone had any luck using it with link, or any simple explanation of how to mod the patch to lock in better in terms of proper alignment of beats/bars (tempo sync is fine, but downbeat doesn’t line up).

I just uploaded 9 modules to patchstorage: Orac Archives | Patchstorage

@WyrdAl - thanks for doing these! Haven’t tried them yet but had a look on patch storage and all look really useful. Especially psyched about berry loops as my one issue w prairie loops was the quantization of the speed. You deserve a lot of praise for these, so thanks again - we’re lucky to have you as part of the community.

I’ve uploaded a “official release” of multicycle sequencer and two other modules (a delay with a diffusor and a tempo synced loop player) to patchstorage:
