I enabled "fastboot" in the boot loader. No change. I will attempt you suggestion of 100nF caps and report back. Thanks KUI

Hi All, Adding 220 ohm resistors in series with lcd 1-8 stabilized the first 8. I was still having issues with all 16 connected. I added 100ohm resistors between the two boards 1-8 and 9-16 on lcd pin D0, D1, and DC. This seems to have stopped the corruption on the 1- 8 when 9-16 are connected. The only issue I am having is this. When powering up the core displays 1-8 initialize properly. I get no display on 9-16. If I unplug the usb cable and quickly plug it back in and all 16 displays initialize and everything looks great and is stable. I am feeding the 9-16 cs lines from a 4dout module. Thoughts? Is the dout module not coming up to power quickly enough? Thanks KUI Here is a pic of all 16 displays functioning. Still working on the final issue of power up. Thanks KUI

I believe so.my pcb is in a fairly raw stage. i will try to install them tomorrow on the CS lines 1-8 and report back. Thanks KUI

Duggle, Do you think that they should reside on the 1-8 CS lines as well? Thanks KUI

Hi all Are the 220 ohm resistors needed on cs lines 9-64 when using smashtv's dout module with 220 ohm 16 pin sip? Thanks KUI

You Sir are the MAN!!!!!! Thanks so much. KUI

So i have another strange occurrence. We are trying to write a custom sysex control chart for Software Audio Console. I have the developer in the loop on this. He has been able to output the sysex stream and been able to receive it. The MBNG responds great to the incoming stream.

I noticed some todo's in the sysex handler. Any help is appreciated. This work will help Novski greatly once he's done with his board. The map will include all controls for 96 channels if we can get this sorted. KUI

So I found it. Range=0:16383 needs to be before the sysex stream definition. Thanks KUI

Sysyex stream definition : stream="0xf0 ^dev ^chn ^val_h ^val 0xf7" Trying to send 14 bit fader data over Sysex. How can we get the 14 bit value calculated from ^val_h and ^val and sent to MF1 as if we where using nrpn? This is the entry now. Its works but only from 0-127. EVENT_MF ID=1 fwd_id= MF:1 type= Sysex stream="0xf0 0x00 0x01 ^val_h ^val 0xf7" Thanks KUI

Spirit, Thanks! I got it sorted out. I had changed the midi send ch for the second bank to 1. It should be 2, as this is the midi ch that the second motor fader board listens and sends to the ng board. KUI

I am trying to get 16 channels of NRPN fader data all on midi channel 1 routed to sixteen faders I am able to route them if each set of eight is sent on a different midi channel and the NRPN ch #'s repeat ie, 1-8 Am i in correct that there should be 16383 different NRPN ch#'s? Thanks KUI

It's all good:) KUI

Hi John, From the LPC17 core on j28 does SDA connect to S1 on the din module? I assume MCLK goes to RC? Thanks KUI

Hi John, Very nice build!! I have my first 8 SSD1306 displays working. I am now ready to add 8 more off of J28. Could you please help me with a schematic of the shift register circuit? Thanks in Advance KUI

Hi TK I am having trouble compiling the latest ng release 1.017. I get a compile error saying that keyboard.mk does not exist. After looking through the repository in the modules section the keyboard module does not have a make file in the folder. Am I missing something? Thanks KUI

Hi TK, The problem was solved by switching to the mb gm5 usb driver. Thanks for all you do:) KUI

Hi All, A little help if you can. Not being the greatest coder or even a noob. I cannot get my Software SAC to talk back to my mbng. I can move the faders in the DAW but not the other way around. I have attached the simple file I am working with. Any thoughts or clues would be much appreciated.

Yes v1.010. After using the boot strap I was able to upload other hex. ie 4x4usb or lcv2, and change between them. If I re upload mbng I have to use the boot strap again to upload the boot loader updater or any thing other hex. nice work Thanks KUI

Solved! I had to use the bootloader hold strap on both of my cores to get them to accept an update.

Hi All, Working excitedly with the new MBNG release. I am unable to get the bootloader updater into my lp17 to change my display lay out. I get "upload aborted due to error #14: Invalid Sysex command". Any thoughts, this also happens when I try to reload lcv2. Thanks in Advance KUI

Thanks, Is the same true for LCv2? KUI

Wow very nice indeed, That has fixed the 7th cs line with the ssd1306. I will add the cap to the board and report back. Can BUFLCD address all 8 displays? Tipping my hat to you Sir, KUI

So I got all 8 displays to work. There appears to be a mistake on the lcp17 core board. IC2 pin 7 (also the 8th cs line) is connected to both j15a&b pin 14 and p1.19 of the expresso module, this is usb ppwr. This coonection makes the 7th cs pin high. I broke the trace on my core board bottom side between IC2 pin7 and p1.19. Now the eight SSD1306 works. Now to spread the mmv3 and LCv2 over thesee nice displays. KUI

Have stopped working on OSC right now. I am working on 8 ssd 1306 displays. I cannot get the 7th and 8th display to work with the SSD1306 test. Looking on how to get the LC and the MM display on eight ssd 1306's Thanks in advance for any help. KUI

My mistake, I meant set router 9 USB1 all OUT4 all Still no response from the host. I am looking at the midi streams. SAC mm midi output does not match the midi output from Midibox MMv3. I will ask BobL KUI
