I sincerely hope the low views don't get you down: this channel is a HUGE resource for anyone tackling how to learn Norns. Very often, the tutorials I find for Norns scripts inevitably get into the scripting weeds and I'm just not there yet. Your tutorials are detailed and focused on the presented user experience. It's wonderful. New sub out of me!

[@famtange]

Couldn’t agree more, these vids are the most helpful norns vids on KZbin. To the point, covers a lot of ground, so good. I’ll definitely recommend these to anyone getting into Norns

[@drtchock]

100% agree

[@user-zx8vf7yo1k]

totally. just got a shield and these videos are helping so much!

[@adamfantoma7437]

A big help! Thnx

[@adamloris]

This was so needed for me. Thank you

[@edwardrapley]

Thanks for creating these, I've found so much joy through playing with things in the norns ecosystem and you're doing great work to help introduce and explain that world.

[@seoverus7805]

Thank for Beginner Video - Really needed this due to basic understanding's

[@onesuavestudio]

I've gathered all the parts for my Norns Fates build and found this channel at conveniently the same time. Thanks for this one specifically. I'd love some more guides for us new beginners

[@cbaproducciones]

Thanks for this ! I’m new to Norns and your videos are super clear and helpful.

[@PhilippeGiron]

Great tutorial and the way you use awake in your performance is an eye opener! Keep them coming !!

[@saysthetedd]

Oh man, I wish you these were available when I was just getting into Norns. Great stuff, Peter! Look forward to watching the rest of the series.

[@musika1]

Dude thank you so much. Your videos on the norns are so helpful

[@Scrambled6653]

Ohh this is so helpful! And what a timing.. I’m just about the get a Norns shield, so I’m in middle of getting to know the Norns environment.. thanks a lot for sharing 🙏

[@The_Sound_Technician]

Dear Mr Barker, as a complete computer phobe… I just touch them and they go on fire, start eating time and space… could you do a video for idiots how to upload new scripts??? I’ve just bought the shield and I don’t want to make it die! All the best Matt

[@peterbarkmusic]

Hey Matt, I do cover adding scripts in this video. If you're still having issues feel free to email me, [e-mail].

[@fuzylogik]

Hi Peter , i have a norns and lucky i get a grid quite a few years ago. but would love an arc (which are either non existent or very expensive). Is the midi fighter twister the only alternative or are there better solutions.

[@peterbarkmusic]

I think with the exception of a few scripts which are specifically made for arc integration you can map most parameters to the midi fighter.

[@shoo5723]

random but what web browser you using? looks very clean

[@peterbarkmusic]

That’s just Firefox with the bookmark bar turned off.

[@howischris_]

how are you getting them to move at different speeds?

[@peterbarkmusic]

I'm controlling Awake's bpm with the Ableton LFO.
