i use a seq V3 and please can anybody give me an advice, how i could setup the mixermap for a program-change etc.?
I don’t get it to work. I tried to setup a Prog.Change value for a special Port and Channel, but it doesn’t changed a patch on my synth, same issues is with Volume or Pan (but on the other hand - if i set #CC7 in a track, volume values will be recognized and changed). i tried also to add the special mixermap into phrases/song mode like descriped on changelog of mbseq, but it doesn’t work..
Short question: Will SEQ send out the MIDI events like ‘program change’ instantly after rotating the encoder on that mixer page [Prog.Chg]?
Because I only can see flashing MIDI-OUT LEDs while rolling the encoder at Volume/Pan-Pages etc.. But they will not recognized at synth-side.
(I am a bit confused, because on the other hand (against the mixermap) the volume/pan ccs are send and received 100% correct, when I defined that CCs as events with CC values in a track).
it uses the last application 3.4f and Mios v1.9g. So it is not modified. I have just downloaded the last version and uploaded to the box(setup_mbseq_v3.hex)
Nothing changed, that looks strange… what could be wrong?
oh i discovered that it works for IIC1 and IIC2 Port correctly. For both Ports IIC3 and IIC4 are additional LTC-Moduls connected. Both IIC3 and IIC4 Ports don’t work with the mixer, but everything else works fine with them. Strange.
Do you have an idea what i can test/do so that it will all work, also with LTC?
EDIT: so now i have disconnected the both LTC-Moduls from IIC3 and IIC4, but nothing has changed (IIC3 and IIC4 Ports are not working with mixermap like described)
So i’m not really sure, whats wrong with Port IIC3 and IIC4 for mixermap. Very strange that in Edit-Mode of a track, i can setup CCs for that ports, which are working correct.
Module:ID (--> changed to ID)
1:IIC1 (0x10) --> 1:IIC4 (0x16) --> this module does not work in mixermap (sends f3 f3 / f2 f2 f2 for volume/ nothing for prog.change)
2:IIC2 (0x12) --> 2:IIC3 (0x14) --> this module does not work in mixermap (sends f3 f3 / f2 f2 f2 for volume/ nothing for prog.change)
3:IIC3 (0x14) --> 3:IIC2 (0x12) --> this module works (sends "c1 xx" values for prog.change / LTC-Module are connected & sends this out too!)
4:IIC4 (0x16) --> 4:IIC1 (0x10) --> this module works (sends "c3 xx" values for prog.change / LTC-Module are connected & sends this out too!)
I have tested all with diconnected LTC-Modules too, but therefor i got the same results like described above. So now i have swapped all back to default configuration.
Then I have swapped the ICs (e.g. from IIC3-Module to IIC2-Module), but i got the same result - IIC3 (0x14) is not working in mixermap by default configuration.
The result is wired. What could be the reason?, Could it be a software bug for IIC ID3 and ID4 or what could that results mean.
Additional info: SEQ gets the power from a commodore power supply unit, so it should get enough power for all the boards.
that are good news. Thx. I have played around a bit with the mixermap and i have noticed that the SyncPatChg option does not wait for the mixermap in phrase/song mode. The mixermap will change immediately before the next pattern will be played. Would it be possible to fix that too or would that to complicated (I know that the MBSEQV3 is outdated)?
Is there also another easy way to switch between different mixermaps without using song/phrase mode? (Maybe via MIDI control)?
Most time i am playing around in pattern screen and there it would be nice to switch a mixermap within switching the pattern.
First of all (I guess you know this, but just to highlight for others): I won’t have the time to add new features, because it’s too long ago where I worked on this firmware, the danger is too high that changes will introduce new errors which I won’t notice by myself since I prefer to use MBSEQ V4
MBSEQ V3 is in maintenance mode, which means that I can only add simple enhancements and bugfixes.
The mixermap will change immediately before the next pattern will be played. Would it be possible to fix that too or would that to complicated
A change would be too complicated.
In MBSEQ V4 this has been solved with the “Pattern Remix” feature which combines patterns with mixer maps, and therefore also switches mixer maps on synch with pattern changes.

I could add CC control without much effort and risk, it will be part of the upcoming release…

You need a V4, and you will like the Remix feature!
ok i will check that all tonight and can give report tomorrow.
