Hi Jesse,
No troubles. I've been experimenting with it this weekend and I've worked out that if I disconnect the (js softstep.jso) from the (p CalcPressure) subpatcher, then the raw input has only negligible latency but when I reconnect the two, there is up to half a second delay depending on how much pressure I put on the Softstep pads.

I'm going to try trimming the patch to see if there are ways to reduce the amount of processing done on the raw data to make it zippy.

If you can think of parts of the patch that are particularly heavy then please let me know.

I'm getting a massive kick out of finally making the Softstep work the way I want it to and I have yourself and Mr Swirly to thank most especially!
Cheers,
Shaun

Hi there,
Just wanted to bump this in case you might have a little time to take a look at the session that I posted.

Happy days to you!

Hi Jesse,
Thanks for the offer of help. I've saved a Live set here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B3nMMseX9KpXemhnTUU3bUVVUWc&usp=sharing

It contains a set up in which the Softstep controls each of the devices in the midi channel that in turn control the loopers in each of the audio channels.

When I use the softstep4live device instead of the Softstep Editor as host for the board there are some unexpected button presses being registered. Specifically, pushing one button quickly after another seems to create some reliable problems.

Let me know if I should be more specific about any of this. I'd be really glad to hear of whether you have similar results or whether I need to fix something on my end.

Many, many, many thanks! I've discovered a bunch of your M4L devices in the past months and am really grateful for all of your amazing work.

Cheers,
Shaun

Hi Jengel,
Thanks so much for this phenomenal device. I've been experimenting with finding a way to customise how I control the Looper device using the Softstep and having the Softstep lights light up based on what the Looper is doing and your work has helped me to get extremely close to this.

I'm finding that when I map softstep pads to some live.text buttons (that control a logic circuit that in turn controls the looper's play, stop, rec and odub state), the softstep pads produce some unexpected results. When I click the live.text buttons with the mouse, I get the intended behaviour but when I step on the softstep, the behaviour seems almost random.

Would you be interested in taking a look and helping me figure out where I'm going wrong? I'd be so grateful. Just let me know where I should send the live set.

Thanks again for your awesome work!
Cheers
