# VISEQ - THE VISUAL SEQUENCER
|
|
|
|
## BUILD
|
|
|
|
### LINUX
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### WINDOWS
|
|
|
|
You need MingW64.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make -f MakefileMingW64
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## USAGE
|
|
|
|
### CHANGING NODES
|
|
|
|
Nodes can be moved around, connected and modified. A right-cick opens a context menu with settings. Midi settings can also be changed with the mouse-wheel and modifier keys while hovering a node. All selected nodes can be changed at once. Draw a selectionbox around all nodes that you want to change, or select them by holding shift while clicking or dragging.
|
|
|
|
#### MOUSE WHEEL
|
|
|
|
- ctrl + wheel -> change midi note
|
|
- shift + wheel -> change midi velocity
|
|
- alt + wheel -> change midi gate
|
|
|
|
#### DRAGGING NODES
|
|
|
|
While dragging nodes one can use ctrl and shift to activate two different snapping modes. Ctrl enables snap to grid, while shift enables snap to next nodes. The grid is divided into 32nd notes. Snap to next nodes shows the time divisions to the closest nodes and can snap to two nodes at once.
|
|
|
|
#### SELECTING NODES
|
|
|
|
Dragging the mouse on the canvas, creates a selection rectangle. All nodes in the rectanlge will be highlighted. Using the above mentioned modification methods, one can change all selected nodes at once.
|
|
|
|
All selected nodes can also be moved together.
|
|
|
|
### CONNECTIONS
|
|
|
|
Connect nodes by dragging from the orbiting circle to another node. A new connection appears. Connections can be closed for signals in one, or both directions. Click the small green circle and it will block traffic in this direction.
|
|
|
|
#### DISTRIBUTION MODES
|
|
|
|
Nodes can have three distribution modes, "Geometric", "RR" (Round Robin), and "Random".
|
|
|
|
**Geometric Distribution**
|
|
Geometric distribution means that signals take the straightest path that is available, when more than two paths are available. By moving around nodes so that another connection becomes the straighter path, one can divert signals to other areas of the canvas.
|
|
|
|
**Round Robin Distribution**
|
|
Round Robin means, that every signal that arrives at a node with RR distribution switches the node to the next connection. With multiple signals in one path, this can lead to some beautiful patterns emerging.
|
|
|
|
**Random Distribution**
|
|
Random distribution sends every arriving signal to a random connection.
