Mackie Protocol - Data going from Software to the midibox

[DavidBanner]

There seems to quite a lot of data on what is sent to the S/W from a Mackie Control, or in this case a midibox, does anyone know of any charts of the data coming back? I.e. what CCs/Notes are driving the Clip LEDs, the Meters etc etc?

The Midibox LC obviously has all of this working, but it's written in ASM which makes I hard for me to follow, and very hard to modify.

Does anyone have or know where to find the definitions for the data going to the midiBox, or have any C programs that contain this that I can poke around in and work out for myself?

hi,

TK have released a C version (beta one) of the LC, it's this one I use.

you can monitor the output of your host with mios studio, no?

the LC output sysex for text string, note on/off to trigg the led (the same note the lc send, but the lc send note on/note off each time, the host send back note on or note off...

on our wiki:

thre is a map at the bottom of the page

slaps forhead - I missed that....

Just checked the Logic Control manual and it has all the data I need - fantastic!!!

thanks Moxi

except that the meter data is sysex in the manual, and Ableton is not outputting any sysex - which I expected as I have seen this mentioned before.

I've looked at the data coming out from Ableton (have been doing so for days), and I can't see the meter data anywhere

moxi - where is the C version of the LC s/w?

you are not talking about: midibox_lc_v1_6b.zip are you?

[stryd_one]

Search 'LC 2.0 alpha' ;)

[DavidBanner]

ah-ha!

nice one stryd - that is exactly what the Dr ordered!!! I have been going nuts after hours and hours of googling for that info.

[moxi]

just curious: what do you plan to do with your LC?

hi david

before it drives you mad you ought to know that you can use the common script as given by AudioCommander to compile the alpha version of LC.Of course it is ok to get code from that.

geee dunno why i keep on calling you david  :P

[DavidBanner]

thanks Cimo - I am already picking that application to bits ;)

Moxi - It's not an LC - it's a dB Live ;)

I'm using the Mackie Protocol with Ableton Live and writing a custom app (which is pretty much finished right now)

i'm sorry to get of topic but might someone help me? i have put together a rough midibox lc and it started to work fine - it shows "mc logic emulation" in the first line of the lcd and the selected track number in the second line.

but nothing else... i mean when i click selectr plugin or select pan or anything the same thing is still on the screen. and it should change - i have huskervu in the background and it shows that there should be something else on the screen....

did i miss something ?
