Salut Bah, il suffirait que j'en vende quelques milliards d'exemplaires pour concurrencer Bill Gate au niveau fortune... Comme je suis déja auto-entrepreneur, ça ne fait qu'ajouter une corde à mon arc. Si tout va bien, dans quelque temps j'aurai une machine pour faire de la gravure à l'anglaise et je pourrai proposer mes services pour des prototypes. Mais en fait pour moi c'est surtout un prétexte pour avoir des superbes cartes pour mes instruments. Celà ne coûte pas beaucoup plus cher de faire faire 10 circuits que d'en faire 1 . Et puis j'en avais marre de la chimie (perchlo etc...). D'autre part c'est un plaisir de souder là dessus, et ça marche toujours au premier coup! Les circuits sont dessinés avec Dip Trace ( http://www.diptrace.com/ il y a une version gratuite ) et sont fabriqués chez Euro Circuit. Bonne journée Christian

Bonjour Après avoir utilisé pendant quelque temps des cartes décodeur Midi basées sur la MIDIO_128 pour faire jouer plusieurs instruments (orgue, accordéon...) j'ai réalisé ma propre carte midi, basée sur un PIC 16F1936 (nouvelle génération) . J'ai décidé maintenant de la commercialiser pour en faire profiter ceux qui n'osent peut-être pas encore 'mettre les mains dans le cambouis" . Il y a la version complète prête a jouer et la version CI + Pic préprogrammé. Visible ici: http://orgautomatix.blog4ever.com/blog/lire-article-69227-2194949-orgautomatech_midi_board.html Je ne pense vraiment pas faire fortune (voyez les prix...) mais si ça peut aider...... Christian

Hello Thorsten ! Many thanks for work, all is fine now. :D For test I've set my midio on 8 different channels; I can say now that a CC123 of any value stops all notes on all channels. Not tested on 16 channels though but it must work as well :) I'm now considering I must learn programming Pic. Everywhere it's told it's very easy, only 35 instructions to learn.... But, when reading Midio128 programm, doesn't seem so easy ??? If at least I could be abble to change litle things by myself... Thank you once more Best regards Chris Chris

Hello Ian You'r right, I've Just reed on my big MIDI book that recommandation for sequencer (harware or software) is, before to stop, sending 127 note-off messages on each channel and then, one all note-off message (CC123). If so, the midio 128 must stop the note-on, does it? Regards Chris

Hello Ian For CC123 just have a look to the last reply from TK : CC#123 0 should be ignored, values > 0 should turn off the LEDs. Regards Chris

HI again Thorsten ! After looking everywhere, I found my error. Just forgot to change the midio128.pl file in the Perl directory, so the CC123 change was not stored in the sysex files. I can say now all is working fine ! :D Even after a reset, a CC123 turns off all the notes on. Thank you very much for help. Now, for security, I'm going to put a CC123 at the end of all my midi sequences. Just a little problem (or perhaps not), one of my 3 Midio 128 boards is runing under 2 MIDI channels. Is it possible to get the all note off for 2 different midi channels ? Regards Chris

Hi Thorsten ! Many thanks for fast reply ! Yes I'd already tried with different values of CC123. I've change values in the PIC, as you indicated, with debug interface of Mios Studio, it's now working fine ! But, after turning off / turning on the board, CC123 is ignored, the adress 0x8C has come back at 0x00 ! How can I get it allways in memory ? Sorry for so naîve questions, I'm beginner in electrinics and programming, but I learn, I learn ! ! ! Have a good day Chris

Hello TK Thank you very much for spending time. I'd just tried. I uploaded the new setup midio 128 with Mios Studio, turned the "all note off " command on channel 1 in the Midio 128.ini, transformed it in sysex file with Perl, and uploaded to the core with Midiox. I made a little midi sequence in Cubase with long notes on channel 1 and inserted a CC123 before the end of notes. All is working but the CC123 seems to be ignored, the test leds turn off only at the end of the notes. Perhaps I did something wrong ? Bonne soirée à tout le monde ! Christian

Hello everybody ! I'm also interested in such a modification... I'm using 2 Midio 128 (and 3 more soon) with Palm as midifiles reader, and I'm considering to use soon a SD midifiles reader, so... Have a good Sunday ! Chris

Sorry sorry sorry !!! I'd just realised that I was confunding Dout module and Midi out !!! So I was trying to change midi out parameters instead of midi in! All is fine now, I've got the right note on the right channel. Best regards Chris :)

Hello Everybody ! Little trouble for a non-specialist in electronics... I'm making five MIDIO 128 to replace a few J Wale midi cards on different automatic music instruments (organ, accordion, piano..). I get core kits from SmashTV, DOUT from myself and all is fine. Just a trouble with changing channels and outputs midi notes. I edited the midio.ini file with Notepad++ and tried to change outputs, for example: 1 = 90 30 7F 91 30 00 @OnOff (note on ch1 C3, note off Ch1 C3) by this: 1 = 91 31 7F 91 31 00 @OnOff (note on ch 2 C#3, note off Ch2 C#3) I uploaded the sysex with MIdiox without any problem, but no change for midi outputs ! I was able to only change the midi channel if using the search/replace fonction of Notepad++ for changing all the "90" by "91". But no possible to change a few parameters on a line...I need to have more than one channel on each card. Perhaps I forgot something ? Am I wrong somewhere ? Hope somebody could help me, not very easy to drive 5 Midio128 on only one channel ! Thank you by advance ! Chris http://orgautomatix.blog4ever.com/blog/index-69227.html
