A parametric acid bassline explorer for Monome Norns.
- Original Norns, Norns Shield or Fates
- MIDI controller with multiple sliders, knobs or encoders for parameter-mapping (optimised for Novation Launch Control XL)
- Hardware or software tb-303 emulator
- MIDI interface or USB cable to connect to the above
tb-303 emulator should apply accent to received MIDI notes with a high velocity value (accent threshold adjustable) and slide to overlapping notes ("mono-legato" mode).
Other synths that have a mono-legato mode and allow velocity to modulate note volume and filter envelope modulation amount and/or cutoff may also produce interesting results.
Install from Maiden

Restart Norns to enable engine.
- E1 : Change parameter page
- E2 : Param 1
- E3 : Param 2
- K2 : Toggle parameter group
- K3 : Currently unassigned
Not all parameters are exposed in the UI display. Mapping Params to MIDI controller recommended!
If you have a Novation Launch Control XL, plug it in, assign it to Norns MIDI device slot 16 and load factory patch 1 on the controller. You'll find all the key parameters mapped for you.
If you have another MIDI controller, I recommend starting by mapping the following parameters:
- X
- Y
- Accent Density
- Accent Length
- Accent Offset
- Slide Density
- Slide Length
- Slide Offset
- Rest Density
- Rest Length
- Rest Offset
