jUxJ2n Hello! I'm Samuel Smith, i'm from Switqerland i and find your site really brilliant!

2008-02-11 09:47 Installation (ordrumbox) - orDB installation

The install files don't need to be unzipped ! Just double click on the downloaded ordb file

2008-02-11 04:31 Installation (Mike) - orDB installation

i have unzipped the file of orDB and cannot get it to run.

2008-01-26 09:36 Installation (ordrumbox) - Extracting Drum Kits

You don't have to extract the drumkits files (ordk extension). The ordrumbox is designed to use the ordk extension files

2008-01-05 01:45 Installation (Jay L) - Extracting Drum Kits

Every time I try to extract a zipped folder containing a drum kit, I get the message: "Windows cannot complete the extraction. The compressed folder is invalid." Any suggestions on how to overcome this?

Thank you.

2007-10-26 09:48 Bugs (Mweb) - note values

Hey Rick,
I work on the OrDB as sound designer.
Actually the ordb do not import/export midi. Not yet, but soon! Currently the ordb is able to play a few midi sounds like BD, AC, CC, CH, bass (as far as I know). Then ordb create wave files that you can export and use with any DAW like Protools. Here you can assign sounds as you like, there is no "pre-assignation".
We are working on a better midi implementation according to the General Midi standard. So channel 10 will be dedicated to drums, AO (33) will be a BD, Bbo (34)will be a snare+rimshot and so on...
I hope my answer will help, feel free to ask, comment, suggest!

In Midi each drum is triggered by a note. Do the virtual drumpads correspond to a standard note value for that drum so that if I create a VAW file Pro Tools will play the corresponding drums?

2007-10-10 08:07 Bugs (ordrumbox) - exporting

Ok, we have to fix this bug for the song export. Also, you may test the pattern export instead of song export

2007-08-22 03:56 Bugs (Pete) - exporting

When I export a song there is dead space the end and start of the pattern..what gives?

2007-08-20 21:37 Bugs (ordrumbox) - load and play song

Many thanks for your bug repport!
Yes, song and drumkits are not saved in the same file. If you try the "autoassign" item, the instruments are mapped to the current drumkit whith the nearest instrument name. The "test" label is a bug ! Pressing the stop button should not gives a long wait (!!!) We have to work on it for the next release

2007-08-12 19:15 Bugs (cml) - load and play song

seemed simple enough. this thing is buggy as all hell.

(win ver): FILE:open song:open 'salsa2':auto assign = yes

1 song comes up in pattern editor 'salsa2'
2 transport bar still on the 'test' song
3 pressing play gives me a red bar going across the 'salsa2' pattern editor as it plays the 'test' song??
4 pressing STOP gives me a long buggy wait.......
5 double click 'salsa2' on PATTERN LIST. Transport bar now says 'salsa2'
6 PLAY gives me what may be 'salsa2' but the instruments are wrong.

oh, now i get it - i need to save the -drumkit- separately.
ak.

2007-05-16 10:41 Features (LG) - Midi

Just a suggestion..midi effects would be great. It would become as good as groovebox.

2007-03-28 11:52 Osx (ordrumbox) - thanks/merci

You re welcome!

Feel free to ask for new features and to report bugs !
( We will provide a new release with many bug fixed in a few days)

2006-10-29 12:57 Web (ordrumbox) - TR808.ordk file?

poop<-
Ok thanks, the link is fixed now !

2006-10-26 09:24 Web (POOP) - TR808.ordk file?

POOP

2006-10-25 23:53 Web (mweb) - TR808.ordk file?

thank you, i like these vintages!

2006-09-04 21:00 Web (ordrumbox) - TR808.ordk file?

Yes !
In fact 'tr808Like kit' was an old version of the 'eletro kit'
But we will soon release new complete drumkits.

2006-09-01 19:37 Web (alfakilo) - TR808.ordk file?

The link for this just connects to the same file as the 'Electro' kit. Is this because....????

2006-08-13 08:07 Features (ordrumbox) - bit depht

For now we don't have check the 48,96 and 192 Khz compatibility

2006-08-13 08:06 Features (ordrumbox) - xtra features

You can assign any sample on any track, so you can get two (or more) kick tracks.
We are working on a real quantize function for the next version, so you can have any number of beat in a pattern
And yes, we can add a drumkit with guitar sounds (maybe in a few weeks/months).

2006-08-10 15:12 Features (jah) - xtra features

hi i'm lovin the program, it's great, but i was wondering if i could request some new features in the next version, i've noticed that the kick sample is a single kick per beat only, is it possible if we can get a double-kick (2 kicks per beat) sample in the next version, and also more beats in the pattern, they only go up to 32, and guitar sounds for the instrument list

2006-07-14 15:54 General (mweb) - ordrumbox, a drum machine for geeks

up! ;-)

2006-07-14 15:49 General (ordrumbox) - ordrumbox, a drum machine for geeks

definitively yes ;-)

2006-07-14 15:44 Features (mweb) - bit depht

thx for your answer. Something else: is it 48, 96 or 192 Khz compatible?

2006-07-13 12:34 General (steve) - ordrumbox, a drum machine for geeks

I take a look at your interface and features, such as polyrythms , semi-random music generation and automatic tracks assignations. And I wonder if you have designed the ordrumbox for geek users ?

2006-07-09 11:54 Features (ordrumbox) - bit depht

In the next version, we will add import/export for 24 bits samples

2006-07-08 11:10 Features (mweb) - bit depht

Hi,
thx for your work!
will it be 24 bit compatible?
