Open Music (OM7) on M1

Hello. I use Open Music on M1 computer (OS11).
I have vmpk as a midi player, and I can get Open Music midi to play with vmpk, but vmpk does not play microtone.

what midi player do you use for Open Music (for OS11)? anyone?
thanks
Dai

Dear Dai,

Just tested VMPK on M1 with OM7 and microtones do work.

You just have to take a look on tutorial 10 (in om tutorials you will find them in the Help menu of om). in the second section of the patch you will have an example of 1/8 tone tuning.

Oh i see, i saw it - though it is way more complex to do it than like the olden times…like with bm-microton :slight_smile:

Thank you, I will try it.

Hi!
Just tried the last release (OM7.0) on macbook pro M1 Pro, and it feels like a liberation, literally - the time issue related to opening patches is definitely resolved, and it’s such a different experience for the user (you know, when you go from 40" to open a patch, to instantly open a patch :slight_smile:
This being said, I also notice that the reducetree does not seem to work as before (see image) - the same patch on OM6.20 returns a properly cleaned up rhythm, but here, all the 32nd rests remain uncleaned. Is that due to the new update?
Thanks,
Jimmie
