Recording audio on SDcard

[sint]

Recording audio on SDcard.

Let say there is created Synth inside Axoloti and you play & tweak on midi keyboard sound from Synth, can Axoloti record on SDcard what is playing "inside"?
Meanwhile sound normally going to main audio output?

Thanks!

[janvantomme]

No, this is not possible.

[jaffasplaffa]

Could you define "what is playing inside"?

A. Do you mean record the midi form the keyboard, aka midi note information?

B. Do you mean record the audio from the synth?

[sint]

I didnt know how to write.
No Midi, Audio recording.

[jaffasplaffa]

No problem

Yes you can write the audio to table and save it to Sd-card, but make it work nice is not the easiest thing to doin Axoloti. Samples are not the easiest place to start. Since I understand that you are pretty new to the forum, I would suggest using the search function. There are many ways of doing what you want.

You can try this example. It is not that good, just something I flicked together quickly. There are MUCH better ways of doing it if you search the forum and look through the community library AFTER doing the search, so you know wha you are looking for.;

Using tables is indeed an option, but note that this will be limited in the length of the audio file you will save.

Thank you for info.

I will check forum search but first i must know how to start otherwise that will be lot off not connected information aka mess ;(
I'm totally newbie.
But there is time to figure piece by piece every day little of new knowledge.
I hope in 6-12 months i will create what i have on mind

OK,
How about sample player (Drum Loops) single sample (4 beats) in repeating loop Is that working good?
Can they be sync wit midi clock (start-stop)
In combination wit step sequencer playing Synth midi notes and CC.
I wish to start both when i press play and stop.

BTW, I currently dont have Axoloti Core. I will order this week.

Thank you @jaffasplaffa, @janvantomme
And everybody at @ Axoloti

Yes, you could use table/play for this.

Can they be sync wit midi clock (start-stop)

Yes

In combination wit step sequencer playing Synth midi notes and CC.

Yes

In combination wit step sequencer playing Synth midi notes and CC.I wish to start both when i press play and stop.

And finally YES

Get one. It is a lot fo fun... But keep in mind frustrations are also a big part of it, as not all comes easy, especially on the sample side. It takes a little while to get to understand how it works. But I am sure you will be able to build what you want

SUPER!!!

Many thanks!
I will give all best to transfer my "dream" to hardware unit
From 1998 i work in Jeskola Buzz (Modular tracker) That is something to.

Do you know any good tutorial-guide-book etc that can help wit Axoloti?

[sint]

Do you know what is limit of recording? Let say, can i set recording to 16 beats? Or in seconds?

[jaffasplaffa]

@janvantomme have made a starter guide for Axoloti, which can be very handy. Lots of tips and tricks for beginners.

Getting Started with Axoloti

You CAN already download the software now and look at it, but you cannot get any sound before you have the board itself.

[thetechnobear]

with Axoloti there when you ask the question, "Can it do ..."
there's a variety of answers depending on how deep you want to go.

in this particular case..
no - the Axoloti firmware cannot just record the audio to sdcard, (' out of the box')

yes - you could patch by storing audio into tables then save it, but Id not really recommended this, since you are storing the audio in memory, then saving it, so its using previous sdram - and its only good for short audio clips (think seconds, not minutes, depending on resolution etc)

however, you could write an object (quite simple) to stream the audio to sdcard, the issue is if the write speed of the sdcard is sufficient, and also the load it would place on the cpu - this is something that would have to be tested.
( I think Johannes did do some tests on this, I cant remember if there was any conclusion )

One word = AMAZING! @janvantomme Thumbs UP!!!
This book is just what newbie like me need
I will buy book and order Axoloti Core this week.

This is making me so happy, forum is good literally COMMUNITY! Good peoples no arrogant and trols like on most forums. All what i ask you have help me no matter i dont know nothing (yet)

Finally i can start creating my old idea!

PLUR to all wit good will to help.

[Ersatzplanet]

Just buy a second Axoloti. You know you want another one too.

I was secretly hoping Johannes and Mark were working on those super-optimized, specialised Full-Duplex Record and Playback objects I mentioned
