synthesizerbauen Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 Hello there, i recently fixed my mbsid (mios1.9f and sid v1.7303e, both compiled for 18F4620). And recompiled the sidapp, so the LC512 bankstick is now supported. What I read is, that in this sidapp there's only 128 possible patches per bankstick (as there are only 128 program changes 0xC0). When I switch on my mbsid, I hear the rising sound (meaning found bankstick) TWO times. In contrast in the old config (in setup_8580_without_cs.asm), running the LC512 as LC256 I only got ONE rising sound. Does that mean I have double the space now or two patch banks? BTW: I know that bankstick addressation is hardcoded via GND/+5V on Pins 1,2,3 of the LC256/LC512 And related question to that is (have been peeking around, but then again got a little confused): How to change access to banksticks in mbsid (v1.7/mios1.9) via MIDI, i.e. BankChange or sysex. Many thanks, copes

Yes, but this is exactly what the text above the configuration option wants to say: ;; select the BankStick type you are using here: ;; 0: "normal" 24LC256 EEPROM (32k), up to 8 EEPROMs can be connected for 8 banks ;; 1: 24LC512 EEPROM (64k), up to 4 EEPROMs can be connected for 8 banks ;; (it is not possible to mix 32k with 64k EEPROMs, more than 4 64k devices not supported) 24LC256: 8 EEPROMS, 8 banks 24LC512: 4 EEPROMS, 8 banks Means: one 24LC512, 2 banks, two times a rising sound during startup, alright? :) And related question to that is (have been peeking around, but then again got a little confused): How to change access to banksticks in mbsid (v1.7/mios1.9) via MIDI, i.e. BankChange or sysex.

synthesizerbauen Posted September 12, 2014 Author Report Posted September 12, 2014 Wow! *double up* Alright! - Thank you. I get confused sometimes by the v1 and v2 Midibox Sid Revisions. Now then again i can use that in jsynthlib (overhauling it a bit on a mac, nicer buttons and such) to switch banks, that's great news. Ah - btw. I have done a decent control surface patch (not all functions of mbsid impolemented,though) for a clavia nord modular g2(+exp board). Where could I upload it, if someone is interested? Cheers, copes
