nah, lsdj sync needs to be in the midi out mode - it is the last one.


I made the same mistake twice now, i did not scroll past the options i was familiar with to find that new options were added to the end (like NXQY are after the normal letters, not inserted within them... because i'm lazy, and impatient)

i haven't been able to get this to work. can someone write out a little tutorial?

like, which arduinoboy mode do you use?

You have to flash the aboy with new code, and it generates new modes. When youa re in midi mode, each led will flash as each channels midi notes are being sent.

I GET IT NOW, THIS IS AMAZING

Yeah what's with the "too busy" message.  I get that when trying to use LSDJ in the arduinoboy midi sequencer mode.

Okay, so I downloaded the rom and flashed my arduinoboy with the latest version and I set up a single note with the Q00 command to send the note as is.  I switched LSDJ to midi mode, and the 3rd and 4th lights on the arduino started flashing like crazy, and i hadn't started the song playing yet.  WHen i try to start the song playing it says "Too busy".  The lights also seem to be going insane when i select "slave" as the mode.  nano freezes it. 

What would be causing MIDI mode in LSDJ to be causing the arduinoboy lights 3 and 4 to be going nuts, and make the sequencer "too busy" to play a song. 

Also, is MIDI the correct mode for this?  There's really not much documentation...

And i'm assuming that the correct arduinoboy mode is the one where all 5 LEDs flash when activated?  Again, there is no documentation for this but that appears to be what the label on the image of the arduinoboy case on the arduinoboy page would indicate.

how did you still have the installation package?  after all these moons?   I wonder if there's a pice of tech that replaces the c64tpc now.  The 1541u didn't work with mssiah well if i remember correctly.   and it was always out of stock and cost 150$ or something.

The c64tpc was discontinued and the website with the software is now down.  Not sure why he wouldn't just leave the page up, but, what can you do.  I got a new computer and i don't have the installer for the software.  I love my c64tpc, it was the greatest thing that ever happened to mssiah...

unless something new has come out that can do the same thing?  I have so many .arr files from mssiah, and no way to load those guys.

Obviously, as i have a real computer, I don't have an ancient parallel port for an x1541... HALP?  anyone with the original software, somewhere?

I guess its mine.  I'll challenge nickmaynard to write a new baseball anthem to replace "take me out to the ballgame"

it can be in any style, so long as when we listen to it, we hear BASEBALL! unmistakably.
