Frequently Asked Questions
Why is there no sound?
OR—1 is a MIDI Note-FX — a generative sequencer that outputs MIDI, not audio. It makes no sound on its own. To hear it, route its MIDI output to a synth, sampler, or drum machine track in your DAW, or in a host like AUM. Once routed, the instrument you chose plays the notes OR—1 generates.
How do I route OR—1's MIDI output to an instrument?
In your DAW, create a MIDI (or Software Instrument) track, insert OR—1 as a MIDI Effect (VST3/CLAP) or Audio Unit (AU/Logic Pro), then insert or route a software instrument on the same track or a track set to receive OR—1's MIDI output. Press play in your DAW and you'll hear notes triggered by OR—1's voices. On iPad, load OR—1's AUv3 in a host like AUM and route its MIDI output to a downstream instrument the same way.
Does OR—1 work as a Standalone app?
Yes. OR—1 on iPad and Mac ships as a Standalone app with its own transport (Play/Pause + tempo), so you can explore its Euclidean patterns and living visualizer without a host DAW.
Where do I find the full manual?
The complete OR—1 manual (parameter reference, per-host setup notes, and troubleshooting) is available at the OR—1 manual.
What formats does OR—1 support?
AU, VST3, CLAP, and Standalone on Mac; AUv3 and Standalone on iPad.
