I want to include an 8 digit MTC display in the transport section of my controller.
I was looking at the midimon platform to do this using the extension, but looking at the midimon section it looks like thin can be acheived on a single dout.
Would I be able to do this in mios on a single dout or do I need to build the midimon device as well, I was originally just going to have an extra midi in and out for MTC/midi Clock.
No, the MIDImon allocates 3 DOUT registers of a DOUTX4 module.
You don’t need an additional core, e.g. the MIDIbox64 application allocates 8 DOUT registers maximum (=64 LEDs), this means that the remaining 8 DOUT’s are free and can be used for other purposes. Just integrate the MTC module (see Concept->MIOS->Download led_digits_mtc_v1_3.zip file mtc.inc) into your project.
Best Regards, Thorsten.
Hi thorsten, thanks for advice.
I think I’ll need a seperate core though as I am basing my midibox on 18F using mios and as far as could tell midimon is still only implemented on the 16F core?
i think he means you do not need the midi mon, just add the code he mentions to the midibox 64 code… i think
