Hermod+ whishlist

Hello ! ( First post :slight_smile: )
I would like a shortcut to quickly load next project in the list of projects? ( If I name projects 1 , 2 , 3, etc , or A1, A2, etc, it would be very fast to access to next project ) .
Or at least : when you access the load menu , have the current project selected, or maybe next project selected ?

I use multiple projects in a live, because I use a lot of sequences.

Yes that would be useful to have the current project be the one highlighted in the list of all projects in alphabetical order.

Can you add an option to specify not just a CV for REC Enable, but to be able to choose a specific rec mode that goes with that CV input. For Example: Have normal rec mode / overdub when pushing the rec button, but as soon as you apply CV to one of the inputs, it records in Hard Rec mode. That would be fantastic to correct errors when live looping midi. Or you could choose different CV inputs for different Rec Modes! That would be fantastic!

How are the chances, that some Hapax Features might hop on to a future Hermod+ firmware? I could definitely see me use that Match chords feature, or Snapshot during live performances… :heart_eyes:

When in Track mode, a long press on any of the 16 Pads selects the corresponding channel! Now THAT would be super cool : )

Also, +1 on the visibility of selected channels on the pad grid; The difference in brightness between active and selected channels is difficult to spot. You only really see it while changing the selection.

Hi, very recent Hermod + owner (installed this weekend in the rack!). loving it so far and by no means explored everything, but in addition to some of the great ideas here (like clock divider etc.), I would like to be able to control the stop start record etc. with my transport controls on my midi keyboard (some kind of midi learn, and an expansion of the midi control generally as I cannot see much in the manual).

Any chance Hermod+ could get MPE support like Hapax?

I don’t know if this is a hardware limitation, but could you add the ability to use the gate outputs as cv outputs and vice versa?

It seems like I should be able to send 2 separate cv mod signals from a single track if I’m not using the gate, or 2 gates from a single track if I don’t need pitch/mod.

It is a hardware limitation. Gate outputs cannot be used as CV outputs.

Hello.

Dear squarp <3

  1. when i adjust the euclid effects settings. it would be nice to have a representation on the Grid, where the euclidean steps are placed. would improve UX so much! maybe in a switchable mode? - toggeling between the effect mutes and the euclid grid? (X &Y button?) ore just use the screen to show the given steps in the given resolution?

  2. pls implement undo and redo button combination :smiley:

  3. it would be nice to see some more algorythm based functionality for the generator. Maybe an AI architecture with different “styles”, that is trained on the before played or generated material.

thanks :slight_smile:

…you can actually use them as CV Outputs, but only for synced square LFO’s :slight_smile:

Yes, this would be brilliant. In combo with quantizer effect and random (shifting CV values sampled from external source), this would be fantastic.

The only current workaround is to record CV from the external source. You’d have to re-record to “sample” the incomming CV, which would get sampled using (e.g.) a Euclid effect for the gates on the same channel.

Sending program change CC for each track at the (e.g.) start of each project or pattern would be incredible. This could be accessed as part of the Track config. Alternatively, it could be rolled into a Midi utils Effect that could handle this generically across all track types.

Is there a way to play from a particular page rather than always playing from the beginning of a pattern?

I didn’t realize there was page copy/paste functionality for a while, so I’m wondering if this is maybe something I’ve missed. I find myself working on long patterns, so if I’m zoomed in and working on step 200 of a 256 step pattern it’s really rough to not be able to play from the current page selection, as it means I have to listen to the entire pattern from the start just to preview the section I’m working on.

You can sort of get around this by rotating/shifting the pattern so that the section you’re working on is at the start, but then every other track in the pattern is out of sync, which is not very helpful at all.

Sorry should have said “pattern in the sequence” rather than “track in the pattern” in that second half.

Pressing PLAY while the transport is running resets the playhead to the start of the current page. So if the transport is stopped, just two presses on PLAY in rapid succession should do the trick. With that workflow, the “follow needle” setting might get in your way, so you might want to check that it is turned off

EDIT: I was thinking of Hapax, this is not supported on Hermod+

So if the transport is stopped, just two presses on PLAY in rapid succession should do the trick.

Perhaps I don’t quite understand how to do this.

If I am on, say, the third page of a pattern in a sequence and I press play, no matter if transport is stopped or running the Hermod+ always plays from the beginning of the first page of the pattern in the sequence. I’ve included a video to demonstrate.

(sorry for the double post, accidentally deleted trying to edit and then couldn’t figure out how to undelete)

Oh, I’m so sorry, I read too quickly, I was thinking of Hapax.
This is not supported on Hermod+.

Ah darn, I had gotten my hopes up. Well, unless there’s some reason this is deliberately not supported I guess I’ll go ahead an submit a feature request. Thanks for looking into this.

feature request for the new tuner (which is wonderful). Would be really nice if there was also an option to temporarily make all channels output a middle c (or some defined note) with gate high, so you can tune one of the oscillators using the tuner and then super easily just match the others to the same note without needing to switch any cables around. This is how tuning with a Sinfonion works and I always found it very handy.
