MIOS Studio 2.2.3 is available now

Updates:
  • MIDI IN/OUT monitor translates the MIDI event into text format! :)
  • Keyboard and upload panel not resized anymore. This has the advantage that the terminal and MIDI monitor panel can be enlarged quickly without re-adjusting the other panels (disadvantage: Upload and Keyboard window can't be hidden anymore, but I can live with that - still searching for a better solution...)
  • MBHP_MF_NG SysEx tool supports new operating modes of firmware v1_001


Silent update MIOS Studio 2.2.4
  • MBHP_MF_NG SysEx tool supports new operating modes of firmware v1_002

Best Regards, Thorsten.

MIOS Studio 2.3.0 is available now

Updates:
  • MBHP_MF_NG tool: support for MIDI channel selection (requires firmware v1.3)
  • added SysEx Librarian for MIDIbox SID V2 (requires firmware v2.41!!), MIDIbox FM V1 (requires firmware v1.4e!), MIDIbox 808 (requires firmware v1.3!!) and Waldorf Blofeld.
    I can add more synths (also unrelated to MIDIbox projects) on request if they support a simple way to exchange patches

IMPORTANT:
  • for handling MIDIbox SID patches correctly, you need firmware version v2.041 or higher!
  • for handling MIDIbox 808/Dr patches correctly, you need firmware version v1.3 or higher!

Best Regards, Thorsten.

The Virus B and/or C are good candidate? Can I help with this?

yes, it's feasible since the Virus sysex format is well documented (e.g. under http://www.waf80.de/virus/sysex.html) and looks simple; it matches with my data model.

Could you please send me a SysEx dump of a complete bank, so that I can try it out (I've to ensure that the checksum calculation is working correctly)

Best Regards, Thorsten.

For convenience I simply downloaded this Virus B bank off the Access website: (attached rar file containing *.syx)

Let me know if this is adequate for your purposes. Thanks.

MIOS Studio 2.4.0 is available now

It now provides a very useful filebrowser, which is supported by the latest MIDIbox SEQ and MIDIO128 releases:
Posted Image


The "Update" button retrieves the directory structure. Once it has been read, files and directories can be selected in the directory tree.
Existing files can be downloaded to your computer at a speed of ca. 40..50 kb/s.
New files can be uploaded from your computer at a speed of ca. 10..20 kb/s.
The edit functions allow to modify files in text or binary (hex) format, which is really helpful for quick changes on application specific configuration files without disconnecting the SD Card from the core, or enabling the MSD driver (which would deactivate USB MIDI).

Have fun! :)

Thanks, TK! The file browser is very helpful (also the Virus sysex support! :-)) :sorcerer:
Everything is running fine here - bootloader .10, newest MIOS studio, latest SEQ from subversion :)

MIOS Studio 2.4.1 is available now

This time only two minor changes:
- the filebrowser editor doesn't close anymore if the file has been saved - means: you can do successive edits and send them to the core without re-opening the file again and again...
- previous MIDI IN/OUT port selection won't get lost if MIOS Studio was opened while the selected ports were not available.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hi tk,

Very very nice work. Please would you add also a raw "custom sysex library", where i can simple read out from PIC18F452, PIC18F4620, PIC18F4685?:

- FLASH (send, receive, load, save)
- EEPROM (send, receive, load, save)
- BANK 1..8 (32k/64k) (send, receive, load, save)
- RAW Receive (receive, save)

I know that I can do it all via Request-Commands in SysEx Tool, but that could be a way simpler and it can used for every 8/16bit PIC type.

Greets greets,

rio

Hi,

I can't add this, because the Librarian is not prepared to handle multiple SysEx blocks as a single patch. Such an enhancement would be too difficult and it isn't really worth the effort.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

hi,

Ah ok, no problem and that shall not give you a lot of trouble ;)

My thoughts went more in the direction to have an easier/comfortable alternative for getting FLASH, EEPROM, BANK1..8 (e.g. with a simple click on a button or combobox) instead of input/load special request command in the send-field sysex tool. But the result would be the same.

greets, rio

MIOS Studio 2.4.2 is available now
 
Again only cosmetic enhancements:
 
1) the main panel components are resized correctly when the window is stretched
 
2) it's possible to select the components which should be displayed:

Hi TK,

thanks for the update, I really like the new file browser.

Is it possible to add the multi bank to the Blofeld librarian?

I have been using this a lot since I got the keyboard version.

 

Happy New Year

 

Tim.

Hi Tim,

 

this would be a simple extension - I will add it to the next release. :)

 

Best Regards, Thorsten.
