So I loaded "MIDIbox SEQ V4.058" on my LPC17 with no sequencer or anything, just the core, not even an SD card.

I power up the core and get the ip address from DHCP:
IP address: 10.103.24.107 <- My core IP to use in Lemur

I then set the following in MIOS studio per the change log.
set osc_remote 3 10.101.80.121 ->my iPad
set osc_local_port 3 8000
set osc_remote_port 3 8000
set osc_mode 3 1
set blm_port OSC3
store

Start the Lemur app and it connects and I can hit Start/Stop or keyboard mode and I can see the MIDI commands input into MIOS console.

Now how do I route this to the MIDI output of my core to my synth? Do I need to set router X in MIOS or do I do this in Lemur?

If you are using the OSC option, no MIDI routing should be required as data is transferred directly via ethernet.

So, the remaining configuration has to be done at MBSEQ side (normally from the control surface)
Without a SD Card you can only use the default configuration: each track sends data to USB1

You could route this data to your synth via a virtual MIDI Patchbay running on your Mac. I recommend this one because it has very low latency: http://notahat.com/midi_patchbay

Alternatively: install a SD Card and change the global MIDI port in the MBSEQ_C.V4 file, so that MBSEQ sends to MIDI OUT1 by default.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

I took the mini SDcard adapter route, because I really would like to in the end not attach a computer to this setup. I had a 4GB & 16GB FAT32 card around the house to try. For some reason, not all the files are able to be created on my SDcard? (Tried both). I will reformat the 4GB one and see if that has a different result.

When I remove the mini SDcard and look at the root I see MBSEQ_BM.V4 & MBSEQ_GC.V4, but no MBSEQ_C.V4.

Apologies if I am doing something stupid

Ok, as you can see here:

[11954.227] File /SESSIONS/DEFAULT/MBSEQ_C.V4: doesn't exist

the MBSEQ_C.V4 file doesn't exist in the default session directory (it's not located in the root directory)

I just noticed, that it isn't possible to create this file without the control surface.
I will make this possible in the next release.

However, you could also create it manually, and only insert the required content.

- type "msd on" - this should mount the SD Card on your computer (note: MIDI communication not possible anymore! Close MIOS Studio)
- create the file /SESSIONS/DEFAULT/MBSEQ_C.V4 with a text editor
- enter following line into this file:

MIDI_DefaultPort 32

- store the file
- unmount the SD Card from your OS
- reset the core (e.g. turn it off and on again)
- open MIOS Terminal
- check that the new MIDI_DefaultPort value has been taken over by typing "global" into the MIOS Terminal

-> all tracks should now send to MIDI OUT1

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Thanks for the help TK!

I created the /SESSIONS/DEFAULT/MBSEQ_C.V4 file manually with the one value you noted.
After that I proceeded with what the change log says.

Still not working on MIDI out 1 sadly, but you've giving me some more info as to what needs to be configured, so I thank you greatly for this education. I will play with this some more and see if I can get it working.

Also, just noticed these SDcard errors in the startup log, I can move this discussion to another thread if I am cluttering this thread with useless troubleshooting...

Silly me, I plugged in a different Synth (sammichSID) and it works! Must be an issue with my other synth, THANKS TK!!!!

This just work now, awesome...

Everything looks fine, no additional configuration required.
The error messages can be ignored, once the remaining files can be generated without the control surface they will disappear, but the sequencer will also work without the banks/mixer maps, etc... it will just use the initial setup, where track1 sends a note each beat.

While the app is configured correctly now, it's time to debug the hardware.
How do you test the output of MIDI OUT1?

Best Regards, Thorsten.
