I think it would be a great idea for us, seeing as how we represent
the internet community for rm1x fanatics, to generate an
agreed upon (i.e. list sanctioned) wish list and place it on a
member's webpage.. On the Wizoo modular list, we have
already done this for the nord , and clavia has
taken note of this page (which is the most we could ever ask)...
Maybe Yamaha would ignore us.. maybe they won't.. but we should
make our voices heard.. (after all, we are the most visible group
of users they could access)..
so, this brings me to the nub of the matter.. if we were to do this,
what would you want to see? Let me start out with a few observations
I have made in my limited time with this box:
#1) the ability to hear the other tracks in grid mode..
#2) the ability to access the pattern quantize option while
a pattern was running.
#3) The ability to switch between tracks in step/grid record mode
while the pattern was running/
#4) unless they actually have a function I am unaware of, allow
the black keys to still perform their mute functions in
"section" mode.
#5) Change the pattern quantize function to allow more options
than just 1/16 and 1 ...
I would prefer something like this: 1, 1/2, 1/8, 1/16, retrig 1/2,
retrig 1/8, retrig 1/16.
retrig would act as 1/16 does now.. the others would operate
by switching to a similar position in the selected pattern
as in the current pattern (ex: press 1/16th while on bar 1, step 15 of
section D, and you switch to bar 1, step 15 of the selected pattern).
This will prevent the rm1x from going out of synch when being
slaved in pattern mode.. and will allow crazier remix abilities.
in the event the current pattern has more bars than the selected
pattern, it jumps to the highest bar available.
