Monome Norns Compass app overview and demo

[@williamthazard]

I’d tried out compass before but was a bit baffled by it. I really appreciate this walkthrough and look forward to trying it again soon!

[@AndyDollerson]

Ah good. Hopefully I'll have more vids about other apps soon. Just manic w Christmas round the corner!!

[@commonbeats]

Stunning soundscapes 😱

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks mate. Appreciate it.

[@nonospezial]

thanks for the walkthrough! appreciate it. great little improvisation there too.

[@AndyDollerson]

Glad you liked it!

[@smacksalad]

Norns is easily a baffling thing, but I've finally got my head round some of it. This is a great demo of Compass, which I havent used yet. Def my next script to try.

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks. Glad you liked it, and I hope you find it helpful when you get that app on there! Yeah it's very baffling, but when you get even a bit of an idea of how it works, it's so powerful!

[@sclr]

thanks for the vid! there are so many norns apps its hard to try them all. its great to get a little taste of them.

[@AndyDollerson]

Glad you liked. I’ll have more app vids out at some point hopefully!

[@bungeechord1]

I just bought a Norns, cant wait to get it! Thanks for the video, very helpful!

[@AndyDollerson]

Glad it was helpful!

[@neuzethmusic131]

Great! You sold me on the Monome to run my Eurorack VCOs through. I guess it's perfect for Ambient and Drone music.

[@AndyDollerson]

Yes it absolutely is! That's how I use it most of the time!

[@Jimantronic]

Great walkthrough and a lovely jam, thanks 👍

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks! Appreciate the compliment

[@music4screens]

Beautiful use of this amazing script.

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks!

[@musicalstatues73]

Holly molly, what a nice jam 😮🎉

[@AndyDollerson]

Cheers mate.

[@alexg8233]

Interesting script. I was doing kinda the same thing on Digitakt with recorded sound loops and green triggers, but only in mono of course.

[@AndyDollerson]

Nice man. Yeah it’s worth a dive in.

[@edwardrapley]

Thanks for the demo and explanation, going to give this a go

[@AndyDollerson]

Yes mate go for it! You won’t regret.

[@pangea2003]

that's really nice! are all those parameters midi mappable on the norns? also, what's your signal chain? cheers

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks! Simple signal chain MonoPoly into desk, aux out into norns, back into desk, aux to reverb. Mains to logic. In terms of Midi, I think (off the top of my head) there are midi mappable options, but couldn't be 100% on that. The manual will say for sure!

[@kostantinosmag2986]

This great one Really nice one

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks!

[@jonasschmitt8644]

great explanation and i really enjoyed your jam in the end!

[@AndyDollerson]

Awesome, thank you! appreciate the compliments

[@enriquealcantaro4781]

👏👏👏 tenes idea de cual es el precio. En Argentina no se consigue 😢😢😢🙋

[@pilgrimsofthemind]

Getting a Norns soon and enjoyed this very much. Can you share what cameras you used to record the video for this clip? Thanks!

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks! Sony a6400 and iphone8

[@drewgriffith1037]

Awesome video! I'm curious about how you have your audio signal running. Is the MonoPoly plugged directly into the Norns, or is it going to a mixer first? I really dig the other videos on your channel - that organelle video is great. You got an easy subscribe click from me!

[@drewgriffith1037]

...and I just saw your video about the BoredBrain unit!

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks mate really appreciate the compliments. Yeah I’m running most things through a mixer. It could run straight to a Norns, but I like having the control of keeping the dry and wet signal separate using the aux on the mixer. Thanks for the sub!

[@AdiGoldsteinComposer]

Great video Andy! Thank you for sharing! Have you ever experienced ground noises coming out of the Nonrs?

[@AndyDollerson]

Thanks Adi. Appreciate it. No I haven’t had any grounding issues w Norns and no noise as of yet!

[@Fedor_Tkachev_Music]

I'm absolutely sold on it now)))

[@AndyDollerson]

Yea the more I play with it the more I LOVE. Got another video coming out w another app next week. Keep an eye out!!

[@Fedor_Tkachev_Music]

@@AndyDollerson great stuff, looking forward to it!

[@AndyDollerson]

Here you are mate. Hopefully more inspiration! kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJm6q2abp66Zr68

[@Fedor_Tkachev_Music]

@@AndyDollerson woooowhoooo!

[@bungeechord1]

After sampling, can you trigger via midi notes?

[@AndyDollerson]

You know I never tried it. I know there's midi capabilities, but I don't know to what level. Lemme know if you figure it!

[@JohanVandekerckhove]

I recorded an ASMR video in it and it was magic...

[@AndyDollerson]

Nice!

[@IIrandhandleII]

Do these synths run on bare metal?

[@AndyDollerson]

Don’t think so. Raspberry pi running I think on LUA.

[@keinseier]

Good stuff... this, and your Otis video tipped my over on getting a Norns shield, I think.

[@AndyDollerson]

Haha good! You won’t regret it! And just throwing it out there - one day, when I’m less busy I’d love to collab! Love your stuff. Do you have a website for your composition work?

[@sergiosavini4817]

Hi I'm new to the Monome World. After watching your video I get my Norns Shield and immediately tried this app. Too bad the web page where the Compass manual is (compass-manual.glitch.me) is down and I can't understand all the functions of this app. I was wondering if you could explain how to Randomise sequence parameters. Thanx in advance from Italy.

[@AndyDollerson]

Sorry to hear that mate. Page seems to be loading fine now. I believe it's a short press on Knob 2 (btm left) will randomise all the functions
