MEC is a new application which integrates controllers with the Organelle.
MEC support Eigenharps, Soundplane and now a OscDisplay protocol, as well as Push2 for Orac.
to use remote access on Orac, you will need to install this, and then ‘activate’ it via System/Extra/Mec,
then select OscKontrol.json with the encoder.
(select PushKontrol.json for using the Push2)
Requires: Organelle 3.1
This looks very interesting. I just bought a Pico and would be keen to try it but I couldn’t find any instructions on how to use. I put MEC in the patches folder and loaded it, however, the Pico doesn’t seem to respond. Is there another component I would need? I have Braids MPE and OSC should I have only one of them?
thanks for any pointers
Got it working in the end. It was the lack of a USB hub. BUt it all seems well.
Thank you very much for this as I bought the Pico on seeing your Youtube video.
Hi. Quick question for @thetechnobear here.
Also apologies because I may leave a copy of this message on one of two other channels as I’m not sure where might be the best places to ask.
As an owner of an Eigenharp Pico and an Organelle I am keen to get a set up like this working. Am I correct that in order to do so I need to supply power directly to the organelle but also, separately, power to the Pico via a powered USB hub. All advice welcome.
Just to say if any one is interested, the answer to my question is in the appropriate thread in the C&G forum. Short answer: powered hub is needed.
Trying to get my Pico to respond with the new version of MEC and not having any luck. Any suggestions for troubleshooting?
Got this working pretty well so far with my Push 2. It’s helpful for developing patches and quickly flipping between orac modules. I had to make sure that I opened the orac patch before I started MEC to get this working.
Hi, I followed instructions. Switched on orac, activated MEC – pushkontrol.js, but I don’t see any display on the push, I see the knobs doing something but things look a bit funky. Running this on a organelle M. Any tips ?
