Christian: I haven't forgotten this issue, and will work on a solution soon (to get Ky1..4 for transposed notes working again). However, for the parameter assignments there is no hope, especially because the WT sequencer is organized differently compared to the lead engine. While the lead engine provides 4 independent tracks for a single stereo sound, the multi engine only provides a single track for 6 different sounds. Accordingly, controlling parameters of one instrument from another instrument can only work under special circumstances (e.g. same MIDI channel, keyboard zone, legato/mono/poly/WT only setting, etc...) I don't understand, why you see absolute values instead of the Note. I mean: if a Note parameter is assigned to the track, you should see the Note, e.g. C-1, C#1, D-1, D#1, etc. (and Ky1..4 for value 7C..7F) Or could it be, that you are trying to send the notes from a track which doesn't belong to the instrument? As mentioned above: this could be possible, but only under special circumstances. However, RC23 is available now. It's only a service release with precompiled .hex files for the finetune fix, no new (official) features (ok, there is a new upcoming feature, which is disabled by default since it has to be tested by the guy who suggested it - Razmo :) - linear oscillator pitch modulation) Best Regards, Thorsten.

You could use the Control Slider element in MidiPipe Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hi Lars, probably the oscillator won't start with higher cap values, it's better to use lower values like 22 or 15 pF Best Regards, Thorsten.

I'm sorry, the read-only svn access isn't supported anymore, since it slowed down the server too much. svn access is available again - a special demon has to be started to get it running - this has to be done after each reboot I could give you ssh access to the repository if required. If this is too complicated, just download the latest stribe firmware release package, it contains the driver module as well Best Regards, Thorsten.

Yes, this is the first demo where I experimented with sidechain compression on the pad sounds, and in demo5 I used it for the bass sound. Best Regards, Thorsten.

Yes, first I want to see the invoice from Ploytec which lists all costs (shipping, etc...) before will request the money from you. Best Regards, Thorsten.

You need some more inspirations for the case of your upcoming MIDIbox SID? How about this construction, made by an electronic newbie with a lot of help from Julien Voirin! :) Very well done! :) poumtag wrote:

Thank you! :) Too bad, that the audio quality of the YouTube video is so terrible - on the other hand, it adds some extra filth ;) 4x20 screen: yes, thats a new feature especially made for MB-6582: The upper line shows the menu page name + selections (here Left/Right oscillator #1) The lower line shows a bar graph of the selected parameter Best Regards, Thorsten.

Bassline demo played on a MIDIbox SID V2 in a MB-6582 case made by Wilba. 0:03 first bassline starts to play 0:10 selecting different sequences, drums played from a sampler 0:17 "pumping" effect realized by sending the bassdrum to the sidechain of a compressor 0:25 checking the new O23 feature: bassline played unisono 0:33 changing the oscillator phase offset 0:47 detune 1:05 disabling the O23 functions 1:15 second bassline starts to play 1:22 showing the V-meter function in bassline mode 1:47 activating oscillator synch, second oscillator played with constant pitch 2:23 activating ring modulator, played with different pitches 2:55 tweaking cutoff/VCA release/O23 pitch (distortions are SID internal) 5:38 second bassline with detuned oscillators MP3 with better audio quality Best Regards, Thorsten.

the syntax of the subject wasn't correct, therefore I haven't found the email immediately Best Regards, Thorsten.

The problem: there are only 256 parameter slots free, and all are allocated, see also: http://svnmios.midibox.org/filedetails.php?repname=svn.mios&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fapps%2Fsynthesizers%2Fmidibox_sid_v2%2Fdoc%2Fmbsidv2_parameter_chart.txt So - which parameters could be removed to provide this function? For chords you have to use "Ky1", "Ky2", "Ky3", "Ky4" (last parameters) - I just noticed, that they don't work in the multi engine. I've to check, if a solution is possible (could be difficult, as note stacks are not handled the same way like in the lead engine) On the other hand: if you only want to transpose a played Note, just assign the track to the transpose parameter (#41). Best Regards, Thorsten.

I must say that I don't understand your question. The WT editor is the same, only difference: 6 tracks instead of 4. So, why is this a shame? Which assignment are you using exactly? Transpose and Key (Note) assignments are working fine at my side It's really difficult to reproduce an issue if you don't tell me your exact configuration. Best Regards, Thorsten.

I'm still waiting for a 100% sufficient wording which makes cimo happy. ;) Btw.: the USB powering topic isn't new to me, see also http://soundwidgets.com/smf/index.php?topic=158.msg575#msg575 and http://soundwidgets.com/smf/index.php?topic=66.0. It's also clear to me, that many desktop PCs/notebooks don't really deliver 500 mA (the reason why many USB devices provide a separate power plug). Personally, I would never power my MIDIboxes via USB anyway to save my computers, but people are asking for this frequently... ...so, before wasting time in discussing about this "grey area": does anybody know some links to reliable reports/articles? Best Regards, Thorsten.

500 chips have already been ordered, which means that people below the 500 mark have to wait for the second order. But even for those people there is some small hope to get the chips earlier: 11 orders haven't been confirmed yet, deadline is 20th July. Unconfirmed orders will be removed from the list. Currently this would free 49 GM5 chips and 46 PCBs for people below the mark! Best Regards, Thorsten (uses NeoOffice Calc instead of Excel to avoid calculation errors ;))

Why? I especially like 0:11, 0:15, 0:21, 1:20, 1:31 - with pause button pressed :D Best Regards, Thorsten.

I'm not sure what you want to say, and it's unfair that you don't propose an alternative wording. Best Regards, Thorsten.

Since the last release in January some internals have been changed, it could also be that it is related to a temporary glitch caused by a buggy driver. I tried the old v3.2c, but I'm still not able to reproduce this, but I must also say that I only tried it for 2 minutes. Maybe it's faster if you just try this one: http://www.ucapps.de/mios/midibox_seq_v3_2d.zip It's a snapshot of the current development version. Complete ChangeLog: http://svnmios.midibox.org/log.php?repname=svn.mios&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fapps%2Fsequencers%2Fmidibox_seq_v3%2F&rev=0&sc=0&isdir=1 Best Regards, Thorsten.

Btw.: I forgot to add the USB cable to the list - it's in now Best Regards, Thorsten.

It's related to the ADSR bug. You will notice this jittering delay whenever A, D or S of the OSC VCA envelope is > 0 For the drums, I've activated the ABW flag (ADSR Bug Workaround) by default - it adds a stable delay to avoid ADSR hick-ups. This delay can be easily compensated in your DAW. Details are explained in the manual. Best Regards, Thorsten.

This list of components is now available: http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_usb_gm5_orderlist.txt Best Regards, Thorsten.

Ok, drivers are up and running. There are also two demo applications, one allows to browse through a directory, and another can be used to send .syx files stored in a SD card SD Card Driver Demo Applications More infos (e.g. schematic of the adapter) soon Best Regards, Thorsten.

Ok :) Open midio_midi.inc, search for following section: ;; if All Notes Off CC active: check it here SET_BSR MIDIO_BASE movf MIDIO_ALL_NOTES_OFF_CHANNEL, W, BANKED bz MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC ; ignore if channel value == 0 addlw -1 ; MIDI channel = channel value - 1 andlw 0x0f iorlw 0xb0 ; check for CC | <channel> xorwf MIDIO_LAST_RECEIVED_EVNT0, W, BANKED bnz MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC movf MIDIO_LAST_RECEIVED_EVNT1, W, BANKED ; check for CC#123 xorlw 123 bnz MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC movf MIDIO_LAST_RECEIVED_EVNT2, W, BANKED ; check for value > 0 bz MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNO goto MIDIO_DOUT_ClearAll ; set all DOUTs to passive state MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC [/code] and replace it by: [code] ;; if All Notes Off CC active: check it here SET_BSR MIDIO_BASE movf MIDIO_ALL_NOTES_OFF_CHANNEL, W, BANKED bz MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC ; ignore if channel value == 0 ;; react on any channel (omni mode) movf MIDIO_LAST_RECEIVED_EVNT0, W, BANKED ; check for CC andlw 0xf0 xorlw 0xb0 bnz MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC movf MIDIO_LAST_RECEIVED_EVNT1, W, BANKED ; check for CC#123 xorlw 123 bnz MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNO goto MIDIO_DOUT_ClearAll ; set all DOUTs to passive state MIDIO_MIDI_NotifyReceivedEventNC I think, that it isn't required to parse for CC#120 in addition - one CC is enough to deactivate all DOUTs Best Regards, Thorsten.

Back to topic - it's show time again! ;-)

I agree! His lyrics don't stand for his musical genius. Babelfish translation of the song: (Katzeklo means "cat litter pan")
