  1. @Hawkeye I have never seen those tutorials before! don't know how I missed that, there is a wealth of info there. Following the tutorial the transpose works, under the scheme laid out in the tutorial. I will try the Root method next and report back. Thanks!
  2. Can someone please confirm that the transpose function is actually working, I'm having a fight getting it working properly. Using G1T1 Root with static notes and Chord parameters into BUS 1, mode on normal, G1T2 track (bassline) mode on Transpose, Note set to First. Settings in Midi/T&A seem to be correct. The output is just octaves of C. I did have this working quite awhile ago, but I cannot get it going now.
  3. Noob here trying to come up with a scheme to display past values alongside current active values from an encoder. The code below demonstrates the problem I'm having. Setting encoder 1 in bank 2 and then switching back between banks produces the desired result, but in bank 1 it looks like the past value is getting over written so encoder 1 bank 1 is not displayed. Using a SSD 1306 display. Below is the .ngc ,ngr .ngl I need a better scheme or hints to the path forward. Thanks.

  4. I have started a small project with a LRE8x2 and I have run into a problem where LED rings stay on after bank switching. I am using this .NGR code to deactivate all encoders then only activate the ones I want to use. Can someone confirm this is the correct usage of this line? It seems to work. set_active (id)ENC:1..16 0 Problem is when switching from say bank 3 to bank 1 and bank 1 uses fewer encoders, the LED matrix stays on for the inactivate encoders with its last value from the previous bank. Ideally, I'd like to switch off all LED rings and then only the ones I need will be activated from the .NGC script. Could a similar line of code could do it in the .NGR?
  5. Did you adjust the bootloader for the SSD1306? See here http://ucapps.de/midibox_ng_manual_lcd.html
  6. What worked for me was because I’m using a powered hub to power the seq I had to remove the data pins from the port that powers the seq. I’m suspecting the hub was generating some interference on these lines and corrupting the OTG input. Hope that helps
  7. I had trouble with OTG. The fix may or may not apply to your problem but it’s worth a look. http://midibox.org/forums/topic/20993-troubleshooting-midiphy-seq-v4/page/20/
  8. On the Jam page under Live recording there is this from the manual. http://ucapps.de/midibox_seq_manual_m.html Have not tried it yet but it looks like what you want.
  9. There seems to be a bug in drum tracks when selecting "Ctrl" in LayB All the details are here http://midibox.org/forums/topic/21545-bug-when-changing-layer-assignment-in-drum-track/?tab=comments#comment-187731
  10. I notice if you set LayB to Ctrl while you are setting up the track and then INIT, LayB reverts back to Roll. This is from the changelog: It seems like it is buggy, I got the same result as OP but I usually set up a drum track and never touch it again, changing the number of parameters/steps will result in loosing the track because it needs to be INIT again to be setup for the new values resulting in all input being lost.
  11. Ok, got it working, ignore above, I went another route. I installed Ubuntu onto my Windows 10 from the Microsoft store and got it working under WSL1. It was quite a few steps involving an X11 server, the GUI works and looks great, its helpful to see what the V4+ does under the hood! Thanks for this.

I know nothing about Python but thought it would be interesting to give it a try. On a Win10 computer I installed Python then PyCharm and then installed the required ttkthenmes from PyCharm. The program ran and the window opens all tabs etc. It works but it will not open a sdcard, I just get this error. Should it run from this setup or should I try on a Linux dist?

    MIDIbox SEQ V4Lite

    I've been trying to use the SEQV4L for playback of files produced by a SEQV4+ but it's not happening. Are the files from SEQV4+ compatible? Any hints on which tracks I should put my notes?
  14. Looks like it should work, all leds are behaving correctly. Did you try to reflash the firmware? And maybe look at the monitor windows in MIOS for incoming and outgoing notes. The messages about remote access might be a clue, but I don’t know if the V4L has remote access like the SeqV4+ has.
