Getting started with the Hypno (Impressions of a Noob)

I got busy this week with other things and didn’t really try using the Digitakt to control Hypno until tonight. I connected the usb out from the Digi to a usb a on the Hypno and can make stuff happen using the LFO’s on the Digi, but I can’t get midi from Digi patterns to do anything to the video.

edit: the video is stunning! Hell, I just roll through left and right video sources on the beat and it looks GREAT! but I’d really get a grin going if the Digi midi tracks would sequence modulations.

I laid down 4 bars of 4 on the floor on midi track A and the lights on the Hypno change back and forth with the beats (they stop when I stop the Digi), but it doesn’t affect the on screen video. I used the Digi settings from this post.

The Digi midi tracks are all set to channel 16, mutes are off and midi out => usb + midi and send cc’s. There’s no other hardware between the Digitakt and Hypno.

I tried both usb a ports on the Hypno.

Help please :thinking:

Saturday morning edit: I can switch patterns and get the Digi LFO to modify specified CC’s on Hypno but when I stop the Digi sequencer the video stays on the last set of CC’s and values (with motion) and doesn’t change. Trying to figure out how to zero out all motion on transport stop and then resume motion on start. The Digi LFO is doing all the video modulation. Still can’t figure out how to beat sync.
