Nachtrag: Mit den Atmel 24c256 können maximal 4 Bänke realisiert werden, da diese Eeproms nur 2 Adress Leitungen haben... Bei Reichelt habe ich letzte Woche ST 24C256 BN6 bestellt, sie liefern aber Atmel 24c256 aus... ;D

Wenn ich Dich jetzt richtig verstanden habe, hast du die M24256 von ST, oder? Die Eeproms sind immer auf Adresse 0 eingestellt, d.h. sie funktionieren nicht als mehrfach BankStick. :( Nimm entweder 24LC256 von Microchip oder 24C256 von Amtel... Könntest Du meinen MidiBox SID Patch Manager testen wenn Deine BankSticks funktionieren? ;D

I'm aware of this and will make it possible. ;) BTW: Is there some interest in a linux port of the tool? ???

@js: thx ;D Currently I'm working on support for multiple banksticks, which are supported by the upcoming 1.7 SID release... 8)

@Thorsten: fixed, now the file is statically linked... Download MBSid Patch Manager 0.3 Thanks for taking the time to play with this tool... ;)

@Jurbo: Does the tool work with your SID ?

damn, I've uploaded a new version and forgot to rename it properly... ::) Link is now fixed. I'm also uploading it to the MidiBox portal... sorry about that... :)

mit perl tools/hex2syx.pl hex/mios_v1_7.hex -os_upload -device_id 0x01 ein SysEx file für den entsprechenden Slave erstellen und mit Midi-OX in den PIC laden. (Bei -device_id die entsprechende slave id (0x01, 0x02,...) eintragen)

This strings informs about the currently selected sids, --3- would show you that SID number 3 is selected for editing 1--4 shows SID 1 & 4 selected

I've developed a small tool for managing the patches of the MBSID. It's capable to - copy single patch from SID to SysEx file - send single patch from SysEx file to SID - copy all patches from the SID to SysEx file - store all patches from SysEx file to SID - copy single patch within the SID - receive generic manual SysEx dump and save to file - send generic SysEx dump from file OS: Win32 Download MBSid Patch Manager 0.3 Maybe someone is interested and could do some testing of the tool? ;) Warning, though everything seems to work correct (at last with my computer setup) I'm not responsible if the tool messes your patches up... ;)

ok, thank you for the explanation :) Yes this behaviour to map the 4bits to 7bits makes absolutely sense... I didn't know that the volume and some other parameters are only 4bit values... ::)

More debugging... ;) After requesting a CC dump with the SysEx message F0 00 00 7E 46 <device-number> 0E F7 (with <device-number> = 0) also a wrong CC parameter value is returned from the SID ( except values divisible by 8 ) Some examples: volume set in the SID menu: 0 returned CC value after requesting CC dump via SysEx: 0 volume set to 0, returned 0 volume set to 8, returned 8 volume set to 19, returned 16 ( 0x10 ) volume set to 32, returned 32 ( 0x20 ) volume set to 91, returned 88 ( 0x58 ) volume set to 120, returned 120 ( 0x78 ) volume set to 127, returned 120 ( 0x78 )

Hi, when I send a CC volume message to my SID while in editing mode the value is set correctly but NOT displayed correctly in the CFG menu by the SID application... Only values divisible by 8 are displayed correctly by the SID app. After looking in the sources I noticed that all CC messages that use the SID_CCIN_Cmd_7BIT_TO_3_0 function in the SID app have this strange behaviour... Could someone verify this? Best regards Thomas
