MIDI Feedback for Elektron Analog Rytm

Automatic feedback for seven parameters per drum track, for controller pickup.

Module version 0.1.0-experimental. Base firmware: 1.74.

About this module

Sends settled parameter values and refreshes them about every two seconds over DIN MIDI OUT. Enable once per project. While a value is moving, feedback waits for a short pause so it does not interrupt pickup.

• Automatic background refresh; no performance-time menu diving.
• Seven assignments per track; choose your own PC12 pot layout.
• Latest-value feedback with bounded, fair output.

How to use it

1. In MIDI CONFIG, set distinct track channels, PARAM OUTPUT to CC, ENCODER DEST to INT+EXT, and OUTPUT TO to MIDI or MIDI+USB.
2. Map PC12 pots to the listed CCs and track channels, enable snap mode, and route feedback into the PC12 without MIDI THRU back to Rytm.
3. Press GLOBAL, select MIDI FEEDBACK, and press YES for ON. Feedback then refreshes automatically; SEND FEEDBACK is optional.

Controls

MIDI FEEDBACK

Toggle feedback, off by default; stored per project.

SEND FEEDBACK

Optional refresh of settled values. Background refresh already runs about every two seconds while ON.

Compatibility notes

• Requires Analog Rytm MKII OS 1.74.
• Feedback uses DIN MIDI OUT.
• Disable both data and clock forwarding on the PC12 for the tested two-way DIN setup.
• An earlier MF06 pattern transition freeze remains unexplained. See the hardware report.

Test evidence

MF06 passed the exact-image emulator checks. The author reports PC12 pickup, pattern transitions, kit reload and restart passing on hardware after disabling PC12 forwarding. Emulator load is recorded. The earlier freeze remains unexplained.
