    What's New in v0.9.0

    • Custom scales: v0.9.0 lets you configure the scales used by Plaits' quantizer and Marbles' X STPS quantization, via scales.cnfg, at <SP-1>:/WAKES/CNFG. Wakes has 7 scale slots for you to play with. Plug your SP-1 into your host while it's in STANDBY, and edit the file in a text editor.
    • Scala format: scales.cnfg uses the Scala .scl format to define scales, so any scale that you build and export as .scl from tools like Scale Workshop can be pasted into a slot as-is. Wakes adds two extras on top: a weight parameter following each interval definition, which decides how prominent that note's presence is as you move Marbles' STPS upwards, and plaits = N, which acts as a threshold determining the notes Plaits' quantizer chooses to play out of the scale. The intent is to create a functionality where you can make scales appear out of chromatic tuning definitions. The file explains both states, with examples.
    • A scales wiki: below the [scales_wiki] line, scales.cnfg contains a reference library of scales for you to copy into your slots and use: the seven musical modes (Ionian to Locrian), and examples of experimental microtonal scales 31-EDO's chromatic definition and the first mode of its cute and dreamy Mothra[6]. Wakes doesn't read anything below [scales_wiki], so the library doesn't get in the way of any parsing. Copy between the two markers around each scale, scroll above [scales_wiki], and paste the definition under one of the slots [1]-[7] to use the scale.
    • Bigger scales: a scale can now hold up to 64 notes, so large microtonal tunings like 31-EDO and 53-EDO fit. Scales don't have to repeat at the octave either; any period works, for example the 3/1 tritave of Bohlen-Pierce.
    • New default scale: whole-tone now ships in slot 7 (○○○●), so all 7 slots are filled out of the box.
    • Tune By Ear: tune Plaits' FREQ by ear while checking it with TRIG, then turn the quantizer on with SCL> (T3). For most scales, Wakes takes the note you were playing as the root tuning of the selected scale. Stepping between scales keeps that root; turning the quantizer off and on again allows you to take a new one. Pelog, bhairav and shri are examples for scales that stay rooted on C. You can switch Tune By Ear on or off per scale, it is a setting in scales.cnfg.
    • OCTV's two-octave lock: below the octave switch, OCTV used to lock FREQ to ±7 semitones. It now locks FREQ to two octaves around the root note. That way, FREQ's extremes land on root notes with any scale, as long as it has a period. Just below max, FREQ still sweeps full octaves of the root note, or your scale root's octaves when the quantizer is on.
    • PRSTs remember Tune By Ear's root, so a PRST is loaded in the key you originally tuned it to, in case it was part of a project.
    • If something's wrong in scales.cnfg, Wakes ignores the whole file and uses the built-in scales. If you define more than 7 slots, extras get dropped. Either way, the log tells you what happened. Made a mess? Delete the file. Wakes will write a fresh copy with the defaults the next time it turns ON.
    • Logging: logs.cnfg has a new scales setting, off by default. Turn it on to see each of your scales in the log at every ON.
    • Updating from v0.8.2: v0.9.0 changes the PRST format to store Tune By Ear's root, so this release uses the fresh bin. Back up your WAKES folder first (copy it off to somewhere in your PC), then follow the Flashing steps below. Older Wakes versions can't read v0.9.0's PRSTs: if you go back to v0.8.2, those slots load as defaults.

    Flashing

    Read docs/SAFETY.md first. The SP-1 has no hardware reset pin.

    1. v0.9.0 needs the fresh bin, for everyone. It formats your storage, so if you've used Wakes before, plug your SP-1 into your PC while it's in STANDBY and copy the WAKES folder off to somewhere in your PC first. It holds your PRSTs, your .cnfg edits and your logs.

    2. Download wakes-sp1-v0.9.0-fresh.bin below.

    3. Older Wakes versions and release notes are available through the repo's releases page.

    4. Open https://solderless.engineering. Hold down T1+T4. Keep them held while connecting the SP-1 over USB-C.

    5. Follow solderless.engineering's instructions on how to connect to your SP-1 to flash it.

    6. Select the .bin in Solderless Engineering's "firmware utility" page, flash it, and once done, you can unplug.

    7. The first time you turn Wakes ON after flashing, it will perform a short format of the eMMC card. Give it a moment. Wakes then writes its default PRSTs and all five .cnfg files, scales.cnfg included.

    8. If you had edited your .cnfg files, copy your changes back into the new files by hand, from your backup. Once everything's set, delete your backups.

    9. For future versions, use the regular bin again, unless the release notes say otherwise.

    wakes-sp1.bin and wakes-sp1-fresh.bin are the same files as the versioned bins, under a fixed name, so the README's download link works.

    When in doubt, check the files against SHA256SUMS before flashing.

    Storage: wakes-sp1 vs wakes-sp1-fresh

    • wakes-sp1-*.bin never formats the SP-1's internal storage (the eMMC). Flash it to update: your presets and files stay where they are.
    • wakes-sp1-*-fresh.bin FORMATS the eMMC the first time it turns ON, and erases everything on it, including whatever another firmware left there (stock stems, tape-looper recordings). Flash it once to set the storage up, or to start over; a progress bar shows on T1-T4 while it formats. Flashing the same fresh file again does not format a second time. wakes-sp1-fresh.bin is the same file under a fixed name.
    • Without a formatted card, Wakes can still operate, but the storage features get turned off.

    wakes-sp1-v0.9.0-fallback.bin is the test-tone recovery build. Plaits and Marbles are offline. It never touches the eMMC, and is for diagnosing hardware only in case of issues.

  2. v0.8.2Wakes v0.8.28 files

    What's New in v0.8.2

    • Configuration from storage: v0.8.2 adds advanced configuration through .cnfg files found in Wakes' onboard storage, at <SP-1>:/WAKES/CNFG. You don't need to fork Wakes' GitHub repository anymore to configure your version of Wakes. Plug your SP-1 into your host while it's in STANDBY, and edit the files directly in a text editor. .cnfg files are in the .ini format, and contain comments explaining what each setting does.
    • Four files to play with: engines.cnfg (your Plaits engine stack), midi.cnfg (MIDI note handling and CC bindings), audio.cnfg (USB audio level and the speaker) and logs.cnfg (what goes into Wakes' logs).
    • Changes apply at the next ON. Wakes reads its .cnfg files every time it's turned ON. If Wakes can't read a line, that setting keeps its default, and the log tells you which line it was. Made a mess? Delete the file: Wakes writes a fresh copy with the defaults the next time it turns ON.
    • Your engine stack: engines.cnfg lets you test, curate and rearrange your sound engines across up to 24 slots, for a perfect selection. ENG- (T2), ENG+ (T3) and the MODEL input (via MIDI CC) will skip empty slots. Ripping Out Plaits' Cables takes you back to the first engine in your stack. If Wakes can't use the file (a misspelled engine, an engine used twice, or no engines at all), it ignores the whole file and loads the original 16 Plaits 1.0 engines.
    • The default stack is now the 16 original Plaits engines. VA-VCF, phase distortion, wave terrain, string machine and chiptune moved out of it, and are ready for you to add back in through engines.cnfg. Your PRSTs that use them will still load them. PRSTs that load engines that are outside of your stack have a special flashing 4-LED glyph.
    • An engine encyclopedia: engines.cnfg also contains a reference for every Plaits engine offered by Wakes. Read its ENGINES section to learn about each engine, each parameter it offers, and what's on its AUX output.
    • New MIDI defaults: Wakes now listens to every MIDI channel (omni) by default. Wakes is also set to legato mode by default. Velocity no longer opens LEVL by default; bind it back in midi.cnfg if you want it.
    • Logging: <SP-1>:/WAKES/LOGS contains .logs files. Each session (from ON to OFF/STANDBY) creates a logfile with a session number as its name, and Wakes keeps the last 5. logs.cnfg lets you choose what gets logged. If you encounter bugs, Adara might ask you to turn some of these on and send her one of your .logs files.
    • Fix: a single noisy fader reading could stop a SHFT hold from shutting Wakes down. It now takes a real fader move to defer shutdown.
    • Updating from v0.8.0: Backup your PRST files (copy the folders off to somewhere in your PC). Flash the regular wakes-sp1.bin. Your PRSTs should stay where they are, and Wakes will set up the rest, writing the four .cnfg files into WAKES/CNFG the first time it turns ON. Once everything's set, delete your backups.

    Flashing

    Read docs/SAFETY.md first. The SP-1 has no hardware reset pin.

    1. Wakes features new storage protocols for the SP-1. If you've never used Wakes before, you need to format your storage partition.

      To do that, Download the latest fresh bin below.

    2. If you've used Wakes before, and want to avoid touching your storage, Download the latest regular bin below.

    3. Older Wakes versions and release notes are available through the repo's releases page.

    4. Open https://solderless.engineering. Hold down T1+T4. Keep them held while connecting the SP-1 over USB-C.

    5. Follow solderless.engineering's instructions on how to connect to your SP-1 to flash it.

    6. Select the .bin in Solderless Engineering's "firmware utility" page, flash it, and once done, you can unplug.

    7. The first time you turn Wakes ON after flashing a fresh bin, it will perform a short format of the eMMC card. Give it a moment.

    wakes-sp1.bin and wakes-sp1-fresh.bin are the same files as the versioned bins, under a fixed name, so the README's download link works.

    When in doubt, check the files against SHA256SUMS before flashing.

    Storage: wakes-sp1 vs wakes-sp1-fresh

    • wakes-sp1-*.bin never formats the SP-1's internal storage (the eMMC). Flash

      it to update: your presets and files stay where they are.

    • wakes-sp1-*-fresh.bin FORMATS the eMMC the first time it turns ON, and

      erases everything on it, including whatever another firmware left there (stock

      stems, tape-looper recordings). Flash it once to set the storage up, or to start

      over; a progress bar shows on T1-T4 while it formats. Flashing the same fresh file

      again does not format a second time. wakes-sp1-fresh.bin is the same file under

      a fixed name.

    • Without a formatted card, Wakes can still operate, but the storage features get turned off.

    wakes-sp1-v0.8.2-fallback.bin is the test-tone recovery build. Plaits and Marbles are offline.

    It never touches the eMMC, and is for diagnosing hardware only in case of issues.

  3. v0.8.0Wakes v0.8.08 files

    What's New in v0.8.0

    • Storage: v0.8.0 introduces device storage. While in STANDBY (OFF, with USB plugged in), Wakes behaves like a removable card reader, and the SP-1 shows up on your computer as a drive. While storage activity is ongoing, you'll see a dancing pattern on the face LED's. Wait until the lights are fully dark before unplugging or trying to turn the SP-1 ON, otherwise you risk file corruption.
    • First-time users: flash wakes-sp1-fresh.bin once. It formats the SP-1's 4GB eMMC card and prepares Wakes' folders. This clears any data on the eMMC card. After that, use wakes-sp1.bin for future flashes to keep your storage.
    • PRST: save and retrieve full Wakes patches as .prst files, across four onboard slots. When turned ON, Wakes always loads the last-loaded slot. It saves to the currently selected slot when turned OFF or to STANDBY. Everything is saved except DJVU and VOL.
    • PRST browser: while holding SHFT, tap PLAY once (instead of holding it to ROTC) to see which slot you're on via a blinking LED. While the animation is still playing, tap PLAY again quickly to flip to the next slot. Letting go of SHFT or waiting a short moment takes you out of the browser. Moving to the next slot doesn't save the one you were on.
    • PRSTs on your computer: go to <SP-1>:/WAKES/PRST to find a folder for each of the four slots. The first file in alphabetical order loads into that slot, and any other files are ignored. If you rename .prst files, keep to simple characters.
    • 30s emergency shutdowns skip saving. Regardless, It's good to periodically back up your storage card.
    • ROTC has a new animation, and Ripping Out Marbles' Cables now leaves t2 > TRIG and X2 > FREQ connected, so PLAY's behaviour stays consistent.
    • Any Plaits engine from a PRST: a .prst can load any Plaits engine, even one that isn't in your engines.csv. This case has a special glyph: A fast flicker on all four face LED's.

    Flashing

    Read docs/SAFETY.md first. The SP-1 has no hardware reset pin.

    1. Wakes features new storage protocols for the SP-1. If you've never used Wakes before, you need to format your storage partition. To do that, Download the latest fresh bin below.
    2. If you've used Wakes before, and want to avoid touching your storage, Download the latest regular bin below.
    3. Older Wakes versions and release notes are available through the repo's releases page.
    4. Open https://solderless.engineering. Hold down T1+T4. Keep them held while connecting the SP-1 over USB-C.
    5. Follow solderless.engineering's instructions on how to connect to your SP-1 to flash it.
    6. Select the .bin in Solderless Engineering's "firmware utility" page, flash it, and once done, you can unplug.
    7. The first time you turn Wakes ON after flashing a fresh bin, it will perform a short format of the eMMC card. Give it a moment.

    wakes-sp1.bin and wakes-sp1-fresh.bin are the same files as the versioned bins, under a fixed name, so the README's download link works. When in doubt, check the files against SHA256SUMS before flashing.

    Storage: wakes-sp1 vs wakes-sp1-fresh

    • wakes-sp1-*.bin never formats the SP-1's internal storage (the eMMC). Flash it to update: your presets and files stay where they are.
    • wakes-sp1-*-fresh.bin FORMATS the eMMC the first time it turns ON, and erases everything on it, including whatever another firmware left there (stock stems, tape-looper recordings). Flash it once to set the storage up, or to start over; a progress bar shows on T1-T4 while it formats. Flashing the same fresh file again does not format a second time. wakes-sp1-fresh.bin is the same file under a fixed name.
    • Without a formatted card, Wakes can still operate, but the storage features get turned off.

    wakes-sp1-v0.8.0-fallback.bin is the test-tone recovery build. Plaits and Marbles are offline. It never touches the eMMC, and is for diagnosing hardware only in case of issues.

  4. v0.7.2Wakes v0.7.26 files

    What's New in v0.7.2

    • v0.7.0 - USB Audio OUT: Wakes now supports audio output over USB. When you plug it into an audio-capable host (Mac, iPad, OP-1f, OP-XY etc.etc.), it'll show up as an audio input called "Wakes Audio Out". By default, the SP-1's onboard speaker goes quiet while connected this way.
    • v0.7.0 - audio.ini: a new config file sets the USB output level, and whether the speaker stays on while recording. Its default setting parks VOL at -6dB while plugged in.
    • v0.7.0 - MIDI clock timing now accounts for the USB audio path.
    • v0.7.0 - New device name: the SP-1 now shows up as "Wakes" by Worldwave, so make sure to re-select the MIDI port in your DAW and reconfigure your clock settings for it.
    • v0.7.1 - Full-range sweeping: The bottom of Plaits' OCTV fader (F1 on the SETTINGS page) now unlocks FREQ completely, allowing you to sweep the full frequency range with no centre-detent. For the freaks out there.
    • v0.7.2 - GTLT - a new Wakes-unique Marbles t-side parameter on SHFT-F1. It tilts t1's and t3's maximum output strength relative to eachother. t2 is unaffected. Additionally, Marbles' UX is a little smoother, with less accidental fader movements, thanks to enabling some Mutable Instruments convenience features taken from Plaits.

    Flashing

    Read docs/SAFETY.md first. The SP-1 has no hardware reset pin.

    1. Open https://solderless.engineering in a browser and connect the SP-1 over USB-C.
    2. Hold Track 1 + Track 4 while plugging in. The four track lights go solid.
    3. Select wakes-sp1-v0.7.2.bin, flash, then unplug and replug.

    wakes-sp1.bin is the same file under a fixed name, for the README's download link. Check the file against SHA256SUMS before flashing. wakes-sp1-v0.7.2-fallback.bin is the test-tone build without Plaits or Marbles, for diagnosing hardware only. It is not the instrument.

  6. v0.7.0Wakes v0.7.06 files

    What's New in v0.7.0

    • USB Audio OUT: Wakes now supports audio output over USB. When you plug it into an audio-capable host (Mac, iPad, OP-1f, OP-XY etc.etc.), it'll show up as an audio input called "Wakes Audio Out". By default, the SP-1's onboard speaker goes quiet while connected this way.
    • audio.ini: a new config file sets the USB output level, and whether the speaker stays on while recording. Its default setting parks VOL at -6dB while plugged in.
    • MIDI clock timing now accounts for the USB audio path.
    • New device name: the SP-1 now shows up as "Wakes" by Worldwave, so make sure to re-select the MIDI port in your DAW and reconfigure your clock settings for it.

    Flashing

    Read docs/SAFETY.md first. The SP-1 has no hardware reset pin.

    1. Open https://solderless.engineering in a browser and connect the SP-1 over USB-C.
    2. Hold Track 1 + Track 4 while plugging in. The four track lights go solid.
    3. Select wakes-sp1-v0.7.0.bin, flash, then unplug and replug.

    wakes-sp1.bin is the same file under a fixed name, for the README's download link. Check the file against SHA256SUMS before flashing. wakes-sp1-v0.7.0-fallback.bin is the test-tone build without Plaits or Marbles, for diagnosing hardware only. It is not the instrument.

  8. v0.6.0Wakes v0.6.06 files

    What's New

    In v0.6.0, a deep optimization pass on Plaits' audio thread, Marbles' MIDI clock sync calculation, and the MIDI over USB thread resulted in a massive decrease in CPU requirements, a reduction in latency from ~25ms to ~8ms, and a smart clock delay compensation algorithm for Marbles. Wakes is now a fully playable and sync-able MIDI instrument, ready to play along with other instruments.

  10. v0.4.8Wakes v0.4.8Beta3 files

    Pre-release for beta testing. Tested on a single SP-1 unit. Read docs/SAFETY.md before flashing, and see docs/Wakes - Manual.pdf for how to play it. Report problems with the bug form under Issues.

    What's new since v0.4.6

    • Stability: resolved multiple crashes on heavy models when every feature ran together. With Plaits, Marbles, the drive and OUT+AUX all running, the CPU could overload and reset the device (#22).
    • Optimizations: more CPU headroom across the engines. The biggest gains are on Chords and the virtual-analog family, with no change to their sound (#22).
    • Optimizations: the drive and output stage are lighter. The drive now acts on the selected output as one signal, so OUT+AUX and OUT×AUX distort together (#22).
    • OUT×AUX now passes through Plaits' low-pass gate after the multiply, so the envelope shapes the product once. Expect a slightly different decay on plucked notes in this mode (#22).
    • Chords: each note's organ-to-wavetable crossfade on MORPH is shorter, and settles to one side when MORPH rests (#22).

    Flashing

    Read docs/SAFETY.md first. The SP-1 has no hardware reset pin.

    1. Open https://solderless.engineering in a browser and connect the SP-1 over USB-C.
    2. Hold Track 1 + Track 4 while plugging in. The four track lights go solid.
    3. Select wakes-sp1-v0.4.8.bin, flash, then unplug and replug.

    Check the file against SHA256SUMS before flashing. wakes-sp1-v0.4.8-fallback.bin is the test-tone build without Plaits or Marbles, for diagnosing hardware only. It is not the instrument.
