MIDI IN fonctions?? (MF & MTC)

Parts Questions
1

hi all!

I plan to design a nice little  midibox in a canibalized genexxa body.

Big 6digit MidiTimeCode (bars/beats/tics, whatever)would like really nice above the transport controls

I suppose this would require adding  midimon to the mb64, only would it need its own Core or can 1 midibox core be a midibox and a time code “displayer” (using the midibox midi IN)at the same time?

the other question is: will my motorfaders respond to sequencer automated tracks (moving automatically if I load a new song into the software sequencer, etc..)?

I hope i’m not confusing everybody here, i’m unfamiliar in this domain :-[

I’ll post a prototype pic later on to illustrate thoughts…

Don’t forget your midiBoxing gloves!

Not sure about the MTC (but I would like to know)

As far as the MF’s (motorfaders that is!) go: of course that is one of the main advantage for me of having motorfaders, whenever you open a new track the faders jump straight to the correct position!

As far as the MTC and other midibox functions go, with a MIOS bassed system this should be easy.  I don’t know about the older non MIOS systems though.

I’ve programmed the MTC and leddigits handler in a modular way - just integrate leddigits.inc, mtc.inc, convert_bin2bcd.inc and parts of mon_mtc.inc into the MB64 application (read the file headers!) and call the handler from USER_MPROC_NotifyReceivedByte - this hook can be found in main.asm:

USER_MPROC_NotifyReceivedByte
        ;; call MTC handler
        call    MON_MTC_NotifyReceivedByte
        ;; -> continue at MB64 sysex parser
        goto    MB64_SYSEX_Parser

Best Regards, Thorsten.

thanks Thorsten! Its going to look smashing!

(currently working on a nice 3d prototype, I’ll send you a pic if you don’t mid)

kind regards!
