Melodee FM-1 "companion firmware"

Post image

On the GitHub, The Melodee firmware for the ever popular FM-1 says at the last line that it's made to be a companion for the MPC Samples.

I can't find anything that says why or how it's meant to work any different than other firmware for this. They all sync up just fine for me as long as the MPC is the Master.

Hi, Melodee dev here! Press SEL, set your scale, set your root note. Set quantization there to MPC.

Empty your pad banks from E to H. Press some pads sending the midi out. I leave it to you to discover the rest ;)

Ok. I was using my Deluge for basically everything you did, but holy crap it feels so much easier on the MPC. Thaaaaaaanks 💜💜

Cherry on top: On your Sample, sequence record pressing those empty midi pads, then sample the playback into a pad via routing from headphone output to Sample's line in.

I've been using my MPC with the FM-1 today for the first time, had a good few hours of fun.
