MnM here, should be similar because elektron doesn't change much. MSB(0) works save it won't choose bank A for whatever reason. LSB(32) works as expected. This is both sending the changes immediately as well as plocking them to trigless trigs and hitting play.
Make sure you've got the CC set properly for the track/channel and set to the blofeld's channel. Make sure the blofeld is on a later firmware, I remember there being bugs with bank change on earlier ones. I'm running 1.15.

It's 0-7 for the banks A-G, btw.

Thanks...

On the Octatrack, you can assign knobs to MIDI CCs on a MIDI track's "ctrl 1/2" pages. I am controlling the Blofeld and can send some MIDI CCs -- like i can assign pitch bend or freq cutoff or volume no problem -- but CC 0 and 32 don't seem to do anything for me.

And I'm running 1.16b2 :/

If I wanted to select patch H128, what should I expect? CC0 7 and CC32 127? That does nothing

Edit: oh, you have to click the bank knob then the program knob, and they can't be sent independently of each other. Got it now. Weird you can't select bank A tho

Yeah send bank then PC if you're doing it by hand. If you're plocking you can just have them on the same trig. PC is not a continuous controller. You can select bank A when using CC32. Send '0', then your PC.

Remember that episode of South Park where Mr. Garrison invents a vehicle wherein every orifice of its occupant is stuffed with a dildo? Imagine that except as an MPC. That was the runner up design.

Also, poo poo, there hasn't been a new synthesis type since physical modeling became a thing 20 years ago. What do you expect them to do, make an FM synth?

Honestly, the more of these I hear, the more I kind of want one. Not $500 want one, but, $200? Yeah I'd do it. The fact that it simply cannot ever be in tune is kind of charming.

Yeah, sure, I'd buy one if they were $200 and I had that burning a hole in my pocket. It's ridiculous.

I want to buy a Timbre Wolf shirt and to never take it off.

If you fuckers buy them, it will give incentive to Akai to keep making them. If you buy them second hand years from now it will give it a cult status and incentive for people to clone them. Do not be part of the problem.

The sleeves would be different lengths and the inside would somehow be smaller than the outside. You'd never be able to take it off.

It actually crossed my mind, posting it elsewhere- I wanted the Sonic Talk guys to see it because they check Reddit for conversation topics. But I figured you (or one of the rest of us) would take care of it. Looks like someone did!

Whoever posted it on Reddit linked it to start at the 31 second mark though, for some reason.

I plan to get one, I just have to swallow my shame and ask the guys at Moog Audio. I'll probably buy a really hardcore obscure module to try and offset the looks I'm going to get. Maybe if I get a Sub 37 at the same time they'll pretend it never happened.

Also gradually pulling apart those vids for Timbre Wolf samples, gonna put together a sweet drum kit in Live for it. Also I swear all the interviewers are making sure to pronounce timbre in order to rob the creator of the lovely pun.
