Hi, I just got my machinedrum!

I love this baby!

I want to use the sin machine etc for simple basslines, but the pitch is
described as a numerical value insted of a notes! Is the value just the
same as the midi notes 0...127?
Is the pitch value the same for all the machines? I guess not because
that would not make sence because the machines wouldn't get enough
frequency resolution!

I remember vagly that there where some talk about a pitch/hz or
pitch/note table somewhere, but I didn't find them in the archive!

I guess I will probably end up using my micromodular or something else
instead, but it is always good to know the limitations/possibilities.

Regards,
David

No.

Different per machine.

Thanks Janne!

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
