Gate out on MBSIDV2? (Solved)

[JRock]

Is there anything I need to do besides enable AOUT NG?

I turned S1 - S8 on in the ext menu on the lead engine.

Do I need to enable the Default ext switch out?

J5 is not sending anyhting.

I set the default gate as Osc1L 1 and Osc1R 3...

The following applies to the Midibox CV:

Gate Outputs: if a MBHP_AOUT module is used, two gate outputs are provided by the module itself, they are assigned to CV1 and CV2. The remaining outputs are available directly at the J5 socket of the core module. This is the only option for the MBHP_AOUT_LC and MBHP_AOUT_NG module (there is no disadvantage!).

Note that the gate outputs at J5 are not enabled by default. This is to reduce the risk that somebody doesn't read the documentation and uploads the firmware on a MIDIbox64 (or similar), where J5 is used as pot input. A short circuit would happen which could destroy the port drivers.

Therefore J5 has to be enabled explicitely in setup_*.asm:

; use PORTA and PORTE (J5 of the core module) for 8 additional gate outputs

#define ENABLE_J5 0

Thanks Me Too.

I got it to work on my MBCV :thumbsup: The MBSID setup is slightly different...

	;; 0: J5 has no function at all (analog inputs don't need to be connected to ground)

	;; 1: J5 used for analog inputs - A0..A4 control Knob#1..#5, A5..A7 are not used at all

	;; 2: J5 used as digital output (pins can be added in CS_MENU_DOUT_TABLE as "shift register #0")

	;; 3: J5 used as digital output for external switches (replacement for DEFAULT_EXT_SWITCH_DOUT, AOUT_INTERFACE_TYPE must be != 0)

#define DEFAULT_J5_FUNCTION	0

I'm thinking I should set the default J5 Function to 3 except that it explicitly tells me that AOUT Interface type must be = 0.

I'm using the AOUT NG so I have the AOUT Interface type set to 3...

Don't know how I missed this :rolleyes:

	;; gate/slide/accent of all 6 oscillators can be forwarded to the 8 digital outputs at J5

	;; note that this overlays the switch assignments of the patch structure

	;; DEFAULT_J5_FUNCTION should be set to 3 if you are plannung to use this function.

	;; possible values: 0..8 - 0 disables an assignment


	;; (gate supported by all engines)
