digitakt & roland JP-08 CCs and MIDI setup

 Some patch notes for my live setup.

My setup at the moment uses a OT, digitakt and Syntakt.
the digitakt sends MIDI CCs to both the 
Korg Volca FM (channel 1)
and the
Roland JP-08 (channel 2)

program change works well.
as does PB (Pitch bend) & MW (mod wheel)

The LEDs on the two touch strips light up when you adjust this. (PB & MW)












Here are the JP-08 factory patches.
Patches 1-1 to 3-8 are from the original jupiter 8 patch sheet.

4-1 to 8-8 are new patches

Paolo of Synth Mania: Why do I think these patches are important? They have been used in so much great music of the 1980s.
Patch 31 LO STRINGS and 35 LO BRASS, in particular, are the classic - now become standard – “JP Strings” and “JP Brass” that we find in all modern-day synthesizers and samplers. 
Many of the others are also classic, evergreen sounds.


The CCs ive chosen are:
1. CC = 26 (HP filter cut off)
2. CC= 74 (VCF cutoff)
3. CC= 71 VCF resonance)
4. CC= 28 VCF Env mod)
5. CC= 47 Env-1 attack
6. CC= 52 Env-1 decay
7. CC= 53 Env-1 Sustain
8. CC= 54 Env-1 Release

Roland -SE 02 - clocking with an external trigger

 The SE-02 has a TRIGGER IN and TRIGGER OUT jack on the back of the synthesizer. 
 
This is a great way to sync and clock the se02 with old fashioned analog triggers, gates, etc.
You can of course just use MIDI, but where's the fun in that?
 
The manual is a bit cryptic so here is a brief and hopefully simplier rundown.
 
For this to work you need to set the SEQUENCER clock source to trigger or“trg" (tr9).
 
First, set the MODE switch in the common section to SEQ mode.
The MODE SELECT SWITCH is where you can switch between PATCH, SEQUENCE or SONG mode.
In SEQUENCE mode, use the buttons to choose the type of data you wish to sequence - Note, Gate, Glide, clock, etc
 
IN this case we want the sequencer to advance every time it receives a trigger.
 
1. Set the MODE switch to SEQ.
2. Press the NOTE button and GATE button to make them light 
3. Use the [1] - [3] buttons to select a parameter, and use the VALUE knob to edit the parameter’s value. 
    The display indicates the value . In this case press button [2].
    Button 2 sets the clock sync.
    The choices are: Int: Internal
                              N id: MIDI IN 
                              USb: USB MIDI
                              tr9: Trigger In
4. To save this setting perform the Song Write operation.  
    This setting is saved with a selected sound patch.
 
A. Press the VALUE knob. You will see the current song's blinking LEDs
B. Use the [0] - [16] buttons to select a new destination.
C. Press the VALUE knob. You will see a confirmation message appear on the display.
D. Press the VALUE knob to save.
 
 5. Connect the GATE or TRIGGER output of your external sequencer to the TRIGGER IN 
      jack on the SE-02
