“MIDI sequencer sound” prevents the corresponding internal sound from triggering, yet the ‘OFF’ setting remains broken…Ĥ. The duration of a step must be held in memory so it can be saved/reloaded etc. The question is, when should the continuous change in resistance start acting as pressure? How long do we wait before interpreting the sensor data as pressure? Adding a small fixed delay to onset of pressure might help, though I can imagine situations where you would also want pressure to react immediately.Ģ. That means that when a pad is played, velocity is the near instantaneous change in resistance from off to on. Velocity and pressure are derived from the same sensor, a force sensing resistor. Tempest not being able to discern between note ‘velocity’ and pad ‘pressure’… I’ve addressed the list of issues more specifically below.ġ. This would be a serious problem, but I am unaware of any users contacting us in this regard. If users are actually unable to back up their work, please contact us directly at DSI support.
#Drumkit from hell superior not initializing update#
I will reiterate, we DO intend to release another update for it. Because we are a small company and constantly produce new instruments, we have to rotate between updates for all instruments. The Tempest is a mature product (Shoot! 5 years is long enough for humans), and there have been many improvements made and features added which were not explicitly called out for implementation when the product was released. Most everything listed on the campaign is on our bug list of items to consider for fixing/implementation. Separately, the campaign appears to be an inaccurate representation of Tempest users since there’s no way to qualify who is an owner and who is not.Īs the Tempest currently stands (OS 1.4), there are some valid and somewhat annoying bugs that are present. We do intend to continue, and finish, development of the Tempest.
Most importantly, if anybody had contacted us directly at DSI support to ask whether we have quit development on the Tempest, we would have told them no.
The vast majority of Tempest owners are happily making music with it. The description in the campaign is interesting, though somewhat misleading. Update: Dave Smith Instruments’ Carson Day left a detailed response to the petition in the comments on this post. The petition is hosted at and has a goal of 500 supporters. We love the Tempest, and would be thrilled to see it feature complete and (hopefully) bug free. Request that they finish development on the product they released over 5 years ago so we can make the most of this amazing machine. Sign this petition to help make the Tempest a priority again for Dave Smith instruments. Signees feel that “there is still a sizable list of problems and glitches to address” with the Tempest. A group of owners of the Dave Smith Instruments Tempest have launched an online petition, asking the company to make updating the operating system of the drum machine a priority.
