@Rio: please try this version:
http://www.ucapps.de/mios32/midibox_seq_v4_095_pre12.zipo OPTIONS page: new option "Print Notes with transposed value". Enabled by default (due to change in V4.093), can be optionally disabled now.
@goyousalukis works fine for me.
Could you please check if TrgA is disabled?
Use GP9 to scroll the page until TrgA get's visible. Then turn off the value to --Best Regards, Thorsten.

This was a translation error in the code, it's fixed now (and enhanced by a new feature! :)
http://www.ucapps.de/mios32/midibox_seq_v4_095_pre12.zip
o AOUT: Channel 9..12/13..15 now set the gate pins #1/3/5/7 as documented (previously it was #1/2/3/4 due to a code translation error) New: gate pins #2/4/6/8 are now set whenever the velocity is >100. This way the pins can be used as an accent trigger
Best Regards, Thorsten.

This is a very clever idea, thanks for this!!
For those who want to try it out - it's now available in following preliminary release:

Well done!
Nice entry project for people who want to check their SMD soldering skills before trying the new MBSEQ frontpanel.
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Will add an option for transpose value display and check the reported issue soon
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hi,
concerning the displays: I remember that I added an option for 4 LCDs to the firmware for somebody who had 2x20 LCD modules which were bigger than the common ones:
Picture was created 2010, not sure if such displays still exist

To 1) yes, you've to add a SD Card.
If you haven't purchased the SD Card socket yet, you could also use a common Mini SD Card adapter as available in super markets. See also the bottom of this page ("Alternative Adapter for MBHP_CORE_STM32F4 module): http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp_sdcard.html2) programming is similar, but parameters have to be entered into the .NGC file.
See also following page: http://ucapps.de/midibox_ng_manual_ngc.html
Search for "he keyboard command"3) see kb_2.ngc and kb_6.ngc/kb_6.ngr example configurations

Hi Frank,
no, fortunately these mistakes won't damage the ICs.
and yes, each keyboard has a dedicated din_inverted flag :)

I noticed that the last release was done 2 years ago, although many preliminary versions have been created meanwhile.
Therefore it's now officially available.
From the ChangeLog:
MIDIbox NG V1.036 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ o new .NGR script command: send_seq (see cfg/test/seq* examples) o added new MIDI event types: Clock, Start, Stop, Cont o added new meta events to control a MIDI clock divider: MClkSetDivider, MClkDecDivider, MClkIncDivider o added new .NGC file configuration parameters: MidiClkOutPorts and MidiClkInPorts o new LCD format character '%L' allows to display logic control digits (MTC and status digits) o added new .NGR commands SET_KB_TRANSPOSE and SET_KB_VELOCITY_MAP. The configuration example can be found under cfg/tests/kb_6.ng* o encoder absolute mode: negative ranges are now handled correctly o .NGR LCD command: %d outputs the ^value
Best Regards, Thorsten.

You are right, it makes much more sense if program change steps are disabled.
Change is already done in the repository and will be available with the next (pre-)release.
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Probably I found the problem, please try this version:
-> http://www.ucapps.de/mios32/midibox_seq_v4_095_pre10.zipWhenever the "step edit" feature was used in EDIT page, the played notes remained in the queue and then overwrote notes during live recording.
Now they should be properly erased.
If the issue happens again, open MIOS Studio and enter "dbg_record" in the MIOS Terminal.
This should give you a list of played notes - and maybe help to understand the problem (and to give me more information :)However, probably you won't need this debug option anymore if the bugfix is working as intended.
Best Regards, Thorsten.
-
Great that this helped at your side! :)
But for the records: currently I'm not able to reproduce this issue.
The test procedure:
- turn on MIDIbox with unconfigured AOUT module
- in CV page selected AOUT_NG module
- exit CV page (so that this setting will be stored)
- power-cycle MBSEQ
- -> AOUT_NG properly configured and working
- can be repeated with multiple power-cycles: AOUT_NG properly configured and working
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Yes, such a hack would be possible in core/seq_cv.c, function SEQ_CV_SendPackage
If more people are interested, I could provide a general function.
Best Regards, Thorsten.
-
Unfortunately c-2 (note value #0) is consequently used at many places to disable the note (no MIDI event will be sent)
The only workaround I could imagine is a private firmware modification which transforms a particular note to c-2
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Another suggestion for future releases that could be interesting but not sure about it's complexity:
Auto-fill steps while in DRUM track mode,
Let's say you press GP3 button (fill start) for two seconds, that would invoke FILL mode ( "FILL" flashing above the steps), without (or not?) releasing GP3 press GP11 (fill end) to set the end of the steps to be auto filled: steps 3 to 11.
Ok, added to the wish list.
I guess that this could be useful for common tracks as well.

Should be fixed now:

If anyone else hasn't figured it out:
On your target track (the one with the notes you want to play), open the mode menu. Set mode to 'normal', select a bus, and change STrg to 'on'.
On your 'step' track (the one to advance the steps of the target track), open the event menu. Select the bus you specified for the target track. Now any steps you enter in edit mode will cause the sequencer of the target track to advance a step.
A frequently requested feature, meanwhile even mentioned in one of Oozitron's tutorial videos :)

Interesting, I wasn't aware of this!
This issue is now fixed here:
http://www.ucapps.de/mios32/midibox_seq_v4_095_pre8.zipAnd I also added a reset function to this page :)
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Thanks for the information! This was caused by an unintended stack overflow
It should be fixed in following version:

Thanks for the inspiration - I will try this soon! :)

I'm still unsure, if for me as a right-handed person it would be better to have the wheel section at the left side.
There are situations where I want to quickly switch between selection groups (such as between track and parameter layer selection) while changing steps with the right hand. In this case, it's actually better if I could switch with the left hand.
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hi Christiano,
very nice first posting with so many detailed information! Welcome on board! :)
Actually providing a proper solution for keyboard transpose (and velocity map) changes was still on my TODO list.
It's implemented now, please try this version:
http://www.ucapps.de/mios32/midibox_ng_v1_036_pre4.zipA configuration example (for a single keyboard) can be found under:
http://svnmios.midibox.org/filedetails.php?repname=svn.mios32&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fapps%2Fcontrollers%2Fmidibox_ng_v1%2Fcfg%2Ftests%2Fkb_6.ngc
http://svnmios.midibox.org/filedetails.php?repname=svn.mios32&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fapps%2Fcontrollers%2Fmidibox_ng_v1%2Fcfg%2Ftests%2Fkb_6.ngrAs you can see, I preferred to use .NGR commands instead of meta events, because we want to change parameters of an event (KB:1) instead of a physical device (KB)
I tested this with a Fatar keyboard (donated by FantomXR! :)) - works fine! I can even change the transpose value with the SCS encoder while playing some keys, the corresponding note-off events are matching so that we won't get hanging notes.
On 5.1.2018 at 4:17 PM, Cristiano said:Furthermore, I would like to send transposition request to another device (for the third keyboard), but I am not sure of how to do this, and how to capture that information on receiver.
I suspect having to use Registered Parameter 2 setting (https://www.midi.org/specifications/item/table-3-control-change-messages-data-bytes-2), sending three CC (101 : 0, 100 : 2, 6 : transposition + 64), but NGC cc directives processing allow to send only one CC per event. On receiver side I do not know how to retrieve this registered parameter.We've many solutions for this case
1) the most simple: I could increase the number of supported keyboards from 2 to 4, because I think that especially for organs the slightly increased latency (a couple of uS, not more!) doesn't really matter. This would mean that you could control all keyboards from a single core
2) for reacting on a single CC number multiple times, just define EVENT_* with different IDs
Best Regards, Thorsten.

When Copying DRUM track,could PASTE include also Parameter layers settings in "Only Steps" mode?
I've noticed that this is the case with NOTE track,
I thought this can be handy for DRUM track also
Alright, parameter layer assignments are copied now:

maybe an option between toggle/momentarly PLayers buttons and screen behavior
Can now be done with this update.
press&hold EDIT button, and select the "Par View" (which is the 303 view for common tracks) - this will keep the parameter layer view.
Btw.: Trg and Layer view are now supported for drum tracks as well9 hours ago, k2z3k0 said:could Transposer and Arpegiator settings in MIDI menu be saved with Session?
The port assignment wasn't recovered correctly, should work now.

Finally!!! :)
I will look into the velocity issue soon
The board that I built some years ago is still functional and I typically show it to MIDIbox HQ visitors as one of the unknown projects that the community started but never released :)
