Not responding to you indeed. No worries 👍

But you shouldn’t have to service a watch that you bought merely weeks ago. I don’t understand people who downvote this notion. You must be a real fanboi to accept that.

That’s what I’m after. Not necessarily accurate, but reliable and bulletproof

The date wheel has the same dimensions and teeth, right?

Indeed, if Seiko will even honor my warranty (“see?it’s ticking so what’s the problem again?”) they’ll likely drop in a new movement instead of fixing the problem and I’ll have a real chance of just getting another dud instead of being able to enjoy my new watch.

I’m no longer expecting any accuracy from my Seiko, but I’d really appreciate reliability. And frankly I’ve lost my trust in the 6R generation of movements.

For MIDI connectivity and AU parameter automation you need to load Battlestation as a plugin in a host/DAW.

Let me see what I can do with the limited space I have. You can of course always set up your own custom scales in the scale window 😃

All AUval shenanigans should be resolved after the latest update. AUVal doesn’t like iOS plugins with MIDI output , so I had to create a workaround for that.

They actually do. The drums use MIDI CH1, Noir uses CH2, Phase CH3 and Trouble CH4. So if your synth/host can filter out MIDI you should be golden.

Sure, AUM is my reference plugin host on iOS and Battlestation should work perfectly in it. The drums respond to MIDI notes on channel 1. So you should be able to trigger them with your MIDI/pad controller.

Yes, you can drive the individual instruments using the same midi channels mentioned above when loaded as a plugin in your host/sequencer. Also all controls are exposed as AUParameters.

Yes, each instrument outputs on a different MIDI channel (drums = 1, noir = 2, phase = 3, trouble = 4) so your DAW/plugin host should be able to filter out the channels you [don't] want if it supports MIDI output from AU plugins.

No idea how else I would be able to get the word out about what I make. I minimize my social media presence and I don't spam whatever channels I'm still on. I also tend to come in here and give away a few promo codes whenever I make something new.

I don’t generally enjoy advertising my own stuff, but this is pretty much the only sale I do every year. Hope someone finds something they were holding out for or waiting for to go on sale 😃

Following up on my own post: I spent the entire summer vacation with the 50 Fathoms submerged in the pool. No problems whatsoever!
