TK.

Yes, can be added to the Fx page. Do you also have an idea, how to control the variations? (algorithm?) Best Regards, Thorsten.

I ordered 250 GM5 chips yesterday. Best Regards, Thorsten.

Extra drum tracks are not required, since each track can control up to 16 instruments (means: you can play for example up to 16*16 = 256 drum instruments) if( event_mode != SEQ_EVENT_MODE_Drum && num_t_layers <= 3 ) { // 3 layers: direct selection with LayerA/B/C button if( depressed ) return -1; // ignore when button depressed seq_ui_button_state.TRG_LAYER_SEL = 0; ui_selected_trg_layer = trg_layer; } else if( event_mode != SEQ_EVENT_MODE_Drum && num_t_layers <= 4 ) { // 4 layers: LayerC Button toggles between C and D if( depressed ) return -1; // ignore when button depressed seq_ui_button_state.TRG_LAYER_SEL = 0; if( trg_layer == 2 ) ui_selected_trg_layer = (ui_selected_trg_layer == 2) ? 3 : 2; else ui_selected_trg_layer = trg_layer; } else { // >4 layers or drum mode: LayerA/B button selects directly, Layer C button enters trigger selection page // also used for drum tracks ... [/code] The trigger selection page In other words: it's already implemented this way... Best Regards, Thorsten.

More than 16 tracks won't be available - see the other postings in this forum section to see why we decided this (sometimes you have to read the whole posting and not only the first article to understand the arguments) http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,12799.0.html http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,12577.0.html http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,12802.0.html Instead, we have up to 16 assignable parameter layers per track + the trigger layers of course. You can already try out your frontpanel enhancement ideas by using the MacOS or GNUstep based emulation before building the hardware. This allows you to decide by yourself, if your idea really makes sense or not. It won't be supported from my side, so - you have to add the code by yourself. Best Regards, Thorsten.

V0.5 is available for download now, follow this link ChangeLog: Bassline editor: "detune" and "phase offset" knobs added Stereo link enabled by default for lead engine and disabled for other engines Fixed problems with Envelope 2 for LEAD engine Stereo link no longer enabled by default Nicer buttons for stereo/osc link and for play/panic Improved Toolbar (individual INIT core selection buttons added, save/load buttons removed) FileHandler is faster now FileHandler is now forcing .syx extension when saving Drum/Bass sequence selection now using radiobuttons (for faster access) Display offset features added to show correct values (i.e. midichannel 1-16 instead of 0-15) Fixed an insane amount of cosmetic issues Added ARP 'easy chord' button for RC28 fixed transmit-to-memory routines (null-pointer-exceptions occured on selection of a single patch to send) play and panic buttons added in Sysex editor Thanks Rutger, it's getting better and better! :) Best Regards, Thorsten.

thanks - updated Best Regards, Thorsten.

So, you really want to overwork all seq_ui* files for a derivative which is probably only used by yourself, because it's more expensive (and slower) than really required? Best Regards, Thorsten.

Ich denke schon, dass dieses XMIDI 1x1 Interface fuer normale MIDI Anwendungen brauchbar ist, ansonsten haette man es schon laengst vom Markt genommen. Guenstig(st)es Interface das sicher funktioniert: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,11387.0.html Gruss, Thorsten.

Hi Jack!!! Yes, I check this: there are no 2x40 DOG LCDs available, but large displays which are properly aligned to the 16 GP encoders and buttons are essential for the ergonomic user interface. Best Regards, Thorsten.

I moved the buttons to the navigation frame - hope that it works with all browsers (especially the google search was a bit tricky) Best Regards, Thorsten.

I added search buttons for Site/Forum/Wiki search to uCApps.de Best Regards, Thorsten.

It's more helpful to guide newbies directly to the manual page instead of linking to an article which doesn't give the concrete answer, but only confuses even more. Best Regards, Thorsten.

The MIOS32 based DOGM touchpanel driver Best Regards, Thorsten.

Could you please copy&paste the debug messages of the MIOS Studio upload window when you are trying to upload MIOS? /Edit: the same when you are uploading the MBSID firmware Best Regards, Thorsten.

If you are working under Windows, it definitely makes sense to try the update! The issue is, that the Windows Java version sends invalid data to MBSID once the stream length varies, and this can cause strange effects (also hangups) We found a workaround which should solve this. It also makes sense to use the latest MBSIDV2 firmware release (>= RC28) - in general, it will be very difficult to find an explanation for effects you noticed with tool/firmware versions which don't match together, or which are outdated. Best Regards, Thorsten. P.S.: this isn't the MBSID Editor thread - I moved your posting

Yes, would be nice if you could add this driver as well. "dog_spi" sounds ok MIOS: In order to select the display, just add a "USER_LCD_Select" function (with exactly this name) to the driver, it would make it compatible to clcd_multi MIOS32: the function to select a LCD device is already part of MIOS32, the LCD number is stored in mios32_lcd_device. This function is only used for CLCD drivers, as we need to address the displays separately once special characters should be initialized. GLCD drivers usually allow to combine multiple displays to a big screen without any restrictions, so that a device selection isn't required. Best Regards, Thorsten.

The display output was working immediately, there was only a minor issue in the APP_LCD_Clear() routine (6 lines cleared instead of 8 ) Best Regards, Thorsten.

Phil: the MIOS32 driver is working as well: (display + touch panel donated by Ultra :)) Best Regards, Thorsten.

It's finally possible to edit ensemble settings with the editor: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,11935.msg110329.html#msg110329 Means: all parameters are accessible now w/o a control surface Best Regards, Thorsten.

A new editor version v0.4 is available: Download Main changes: some parts now use the same classes like MIOS Studio to improve overall robustness of the java tools Ensemble librarian added! Ensemble editor added! Multiple selection possible (to send multiple patches at once, copy multiple at the same time, etc. NOTE: for some functions (i.e. upload a patch to the buffer) doesn't make sense. In this case the first item of the selection is taken as 'the one'). Improved SysEx handling, better Sysex-bug workaround (RC27 slave don't crash anymore). The visualisation of ensemble data will be improved later (e.g. MIDI Notes are currently displayed as a number, MIDI channel is counted from 0 instead of 1, etc...) - we thought, that releasing a version which allows to edit an ensemble is more important (especially for users who haven't built a control surface yet) than the cosmetic stuff. /Edit: complete changelog: Complete ChangeLog: play and panic buttons added in Sysex editor default startup tab in librarian is now bank A better init functions (loading from internal syx files) multiple selection functionality added (solution for 64 entry banksticks) ensemble editor added ensemble librarian added check loading midi setup (strange behavior!) oscillator link or stereo link would not update the internal patch properly retaining settings of midi configuration improved sysex handler (makes use of new sysex commands in RC19) simplified midi routing fix alot of minor bugs improved drum sequencer representation fixed sysex handler for Mac improved WaveTable representation arpeggiator patterns UD2 and DU2 missing modulation inversion buttons not working properly fixed values as modulation source not working properly LFO One shot button added LFO Key sync shortcut added Reorganized tabs LFO sine wave button not behaving properly name mistake in lead engine parameter list wrong cc's above knob assignment rate knob labels did not follow MIDI sync on/off from patch Best Regards, Thorsten.

Clever! Don't do this at home, kids! ;) Best Regards, Thorsten.
