Erae 2 lab & API : Embodme

Hello,

Just received Erae 2 and testing it with Erae Lab 1.5.2 on Linux.

A few feedbacks about its integration with Erae lab & API :

- API zone is missing from Erae Lab "Compose" section. Although it still exists if I load an ancient project (made with previous of Erae Lab). Why ?

- Will the CV outputs be available from API ? That would be great if we could address some voltages directly from API

- Still no native widgets for high resolution (more than 7 bit) sliders and faders : very sad to control MIDI & CV with such a low resolution. I'm not sure about CV though, but I can't really figure out what strategy was used to smooth (if any) the output ? Is it raw MIDI to CV conversion ?

If I get the docs right my Behriner PRO-800 accepts two byte MIDI CCs, so it would be nice to control the synth with the full resolution it is capable.

Sure, it has been a convention for a long time to allow using 2 CC for 14 bit resolution controllers. And since Erae real internal resolution is much higher, I think they should implement this. I mean, what is the point of having so many thousands of sensors to send 7bit midi messages?

I too need the API /Sysex mode to work on my ERAE 2, and if not, xpos, ypos, and pressure at least need 14 bit versions!

I am also affected by this. I wrote code before delivery to work with the API based on documentation that said the Erae II would support the same API as Erae I. On delivery, I was unable to use my code because the feature is not available. I intended to use the Erae II primarily in API mode. I also would appreciate a 14 bit resolution mode with the api for fingerstream data.

Adding my vote to implement 14-bit MIDI ASAP. This is the main reason I purchased the Erae as an owner of the Sensel Morph.

I don't think this is something that should be pushed back as an update for the distant future. My Erae II is going to stay in its box till 14-bit is implemented (and while my Sensel still works).
