taximan Posted February 4, 2010 Report Posted February 4, 2010 (edited) Hiya, I will try and explain where I'm at first. Built my first ever project (core v3) I downloaded mios studio and java as instructed (to my pc) Mios studio will not communicate with my 'no name' midi to usb cable but midiox will. As stated in the documentation my core is searching every two seconds. I read that I could work around the non working mios studio issue by converting the hex file using a combination of perl and midiox. I installed perl and have been trying to convert the file but I am stuck (through lack of familiarity with perl/programming) I can get to here but I don't understand what I need to do from here on,could someone please guide me through it? many thanks Paul Edited February 4, 2010 by taximan Quote
sparx Posted February 4, 2010 Report Posted February 4, 2010 Go to the directory where Perl is installed, lets say its om the root of C: ,from where you are type cd.. <enter> cd.. <enter> then type cd perl <enter> Should get you into the Perl directory, then run the perl script, helps if the file you are converting is in the same directory. Its been a while since I did it so may have missed something. Let us know how you got on. Regards Sparx Quote
taximan Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Posted February 4, 2010 Hiya, Well I got mios uploaded okay it turns out the new usb hub I am using had some kind of driver issue which just resolved itself somehow. I ended up giving mios studio another try after the usb hub updated it's own drivers and everything went okay from there. Sparx,appreciate the helping hand mate....I can't explain why I am so happy staring at a blue lcd with the word 'ready' on it...lol. cheers Paul Quote
sparx Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) No problem at all, hope it wasn't teaching Grandma to suck eggs. If you're happy looking at the word READY. just wait until you make sound from a 1980's computer chip! S Edited February 5, 2010 by sparx Quote
