# how to use r_e_c_u_r
|
|
|
|
## getting started
|
|
|
|
- insert a usb with some videos you want to sample
|
|
- connect the hdmi output to the display you want to use
|
|
- power the raspberry pi. you should see red lights on the pi board, some boot text on the hdmi out and the lcd display light up
|
|
- after a few moments , a video should play on the display output , the raspberian desktop will load on lcd and then (after a few moments) the r_e_c_u_r display will load
|
|
- the `DISPLAY` key can be used to cycle through _display_modes_
|
|
|
|
## controls
|
|
|
|
the controls on r_e_c_u_r work by mapping `keys` to `actions`. (custom mappings ?) by default most keys map to the same action independant of the state (ie display mode) the r_e_c_u_r is in.
|
|
|
|
The exceptions to this are the control keys:
|
|
|
|
- `<-` and `->` : used for navigation when applicable (see below) ; used for seeking current sample in `SAMPLER` mode
|
|
- `square` : used as 'enter' for navigation ; used to toggle pause/play in `SAMPLER` mode.
|
|
|
|
the display modes described below are cycled by using the `DISPLAY` key. some actions are accessable through a `2ND FUNC` layer, toggled by the corrosponding key.
|
|
other controls include:
|
|
|
|
- `--->` is used to trigger the next loaded sample to play
|
|
- loading the sample in slot `x` to play next; where `x` is a key from `0` to `9`
|
|
- cropping the current sample to start (`[`) or end (`]`) at the current time
|
|
- cycling forward (`NEXT BANK`) or back (`PREV BANK`) through the banks of sample , or clearing a bank (`CLEAR BANK`)
|
|
|
|
some keys are empty to leave room for future features. i encourage you to make a custom key map (link to doc) or add actions (another link) you would like to use.
|
|
|
|
## `PLAYER` display
|
|
|
|
this section displays infomation about what is in the video player : the position from start and end of currently playing video, what [slot] is playing now and what slot is loaded [next]
|
|
|
|
## `BROWSER` display mode
|
|
|
|
this is where you can load samples from your usb into the `SAMPLER`
|
|
|
|
- in this mode , the `<-` and `->` keys will move the selection up and down
|
|
- folders are displayed ending in `|` for closed and `/` for open , the depth is displayed as indentation
|
|
- pressing the `square` key while a folder is selected toggles it open/closed
|
|
- pressing the `square` key while a video is selected loads it into the next avaliable slot (note : you can see the first slot a video is loaded into on right colunm)
|
|
|
|
## `SAMPLER` display mode
|
|
|
|
this is the main display mode for using r_e_c_u_r. from this view you can see details of all the samples loaded into the sampler. a `bank` contains 10 `slots` labeled `0` - `9`. pressing the corrosponding `key` will load the `sample` in this `slot` to start when the current sample finishes. the `slot` of the currently playing sample is highlighted.
|
|
|
|
## `SETTINGS` display mode
|
|
|
|
this is where you can configure r_e_c_u_r's settings.
|
|
|
|
- navigate the menu with `<-` and `->` keys like about
|
|
- pressing `square` on a setting will either cycle through it's `options` or run an `action` depending on its type (a `action` setting will always have value `run_action`)
