Guys…I’m dyin’ over here from all the times I’ve accidentally saved instead of loaded…please…save me from my misery…make it so every time you save it exits save, maybe goes back to load…that or an undo…
It’s in the next version, 1.2, no firm ETA yet.
Preview
- New “Save and Exit” action on the save screen is the new default.
- New Confirmation Dialog when overwriting an existing preset.

Mmmmm tell us more about this “1.2” of which you speak

Having issues with the Tuner specifically when set to Clock. It freaks out Akemie’s Taiko resulting in this garbled noise from the module. I think the issue is if you have a pattern programmed then the clock and the programmed gates play over the top of each other - I’m not sure why this should generate the noise I’m hearing, but I’m sure it’s not supposed to be like this. Tuning mode should ignore the rest of the module right and instead act purely as a tuner?
Right on. Will be great to have these in the UI mix.
Yeah Looks like the Gate output is putting a really fast string of trigs after the main gate. I’ll fix it for the next version.
Edit: Fixed in 1.2

Not yet 
I’m not sure if this is possible with the current architecture, but I find it to be one of the most powerful features on the Makes Noise Rene V2. By enabling one of the CV inputs to recall saved sequences, the Metropolix could play REALLY nicely with other CV sequencers like the Voltage Block or the NerdSeq for more complex progressions.
Yeah, this is on our internal wishlist. No ETA yet.
Keep and eye on this thread, Metropolix and Gx - #203 by slowwild, it’s where the most Metropolix chatter is happening.

I’ve been testing out the Acid slide style and it just seems to make my sequence super quiet.
I’m using an Atlantis.
Should I be doing something in particular to get this going properly?
Keep in mind that an acid slide holds the gate high. The Sustain slider on the ADSR should be set to a non-zero level.

Hi,
I’d like to position my GX more distantly from the Metropolix in my case.
If I make a new I2C cable, is there any problem with lengthening it, say to 30cm instead of the one included?
Would we get a little bit of Steppy’s ADN in GX ?
(having a step sequencerish mode in Metropolix using GX’s outputs) 
This isn’t something that I’ve tested yet, but I can’t see there being a problem with longer cables unless it gets really long. For example MIDI cables work fine up to 50ft, so I’m sure 30cm is fine.
Gx/Qx uses standard 6-pin ribbon cables so you can buy longer cables from electronic parts suppliers or make your own.
What do you mean by ADN?
I think step sequencing with Metropolix and Gx has been considered. Probably the only way to implement it though would be to take up all of your MOD lanes so you would have one lane per Gx output. Personally that seems like a waste of the MOD lanes to me as you can do so many more interesting things with them. But then I already have Steppy so I’d be using it alongside Metropolix anyway.
I2C is not really meant to transmit over long distances, it will probably work at up to 30cm but it has not really been tested. The max length is definitely much shorter than a MIDI cable though 
Whoops ADN is the frach abbreviation for DNA.
It was just some though question I have regarding Loopop’s video.
I’m currently am on the hunt for a 1U Steppy. It seems they are out of stock everywhere.
For the record, I’ve got 2 of them connected together with an adapter. The resulting length is 30 cm and everything seems to work fine

Has anyone put any fader caps on their Metropolix yet? My Batumi has the same faders and I snapped the black plastic off of one of them when I dropped my phone on it 
Now it is taped up with some painter’s tape but was thinking I’d try to avoid this on future modules.
Thinking bout getting these but of course I’m having a hard time finding them in the US:
