I'm looking for monster lists for Journeys through the Radiant Citadel.

Like, for each of the planes in there, here's a list of appropriate monsters. It's OK if they're fan made. It's not always clear to me exactly which real-world–culture is the basis of which plane (maybe that's in the book or maybe it's supposed to be vague), but that's fine, I think these settings look awesome, but one of the main thing missing to easily expand them are encounter tables, which I could throw together if I knew like "OK, on such-and-such plane there are owlbears and stirges" or something like that.

SmplTrek note off timing?

Is there a way to set the default note off timing? (What some other sequencers call Gate Length.) Either as a device-wide setting, or for a project, for a track, for a scene or just for a clip. As it is I can only do it note-by-note.

All notes are half the length I'd want, and I have to go into them manually and crank up each one separately from 50% to 99%. I would love the sequencer if it weren't for this.

I have a workaround which is to import SMF's from any other seqencer (such as abc2midi on Linux or Atom 2 on iPad) and that works fine, using the SmplTrek more as an arranger/player than a sequencer, but since the SmplTrek step sequencer is so nice it'd be great to be able to use it directly instead.

(And another workaround is to get good and turn off quantization, that also works.)

Don't worry, I'm definitively keeping mine (as a drum machine, looper, and global tracks recorder, and as an audio interface) but I'm just a li'l frustrated with this one issue.

I know that I can make notes longer by pressing right arrow or turning the value know; I can make two eight notes followed by a quarter note for example.

But those notes will all be "staccato" since they've got a 50% gate length.

That's not always what I want especially for a midi or organ type track.

Here is an example. One track playing three notes twice, same instrument. Two fourth notes followed by a halfnote (and the halfnote sequenced by using the right arrow while holding the pad).

This is how the track looks

The first three notes are played staccato (e.g. "Note off timing" 50%, a.k.a. gate length as some other synths call it). The last three notes are played more fully, with note off timing manually set to 99% for each of the three notes.

Here is how the track sounds, first the staccato notes followed by the normal notes.

Many other sequencers, to get that staccato sound you'd set grid length to 1/4 but note length to 1/8. But on SmplTrek, it's one setting, called note length, and setting that to 1/4 as I did here results in notes with a shortened, only 50% duration.

Messing with the envelope release is no good for MIDI tracks.

So far my best workaround is to import SMF files that I've made with some other sequencer app and that's a shame since I'm so much faster and more creative with the SmplTrek's sequencer, but I just don't always want that staccato sound.

I don't wanna make a Facebook account just to post in the SmplTrek group on there. 😰
