So... just updated and tested it for inclusion in the next genmdm firmware.

MIDI CC 90 sets the SSG-EG setting for op 1.
MIDI CC 91 sets the SSG-EG setting for op 2.
MIDI CC 92 sets the SSG-EG setting for op 3.
MIDI CC 93 sets the SSG-EG setting for op 4.

Ive made a preliminary version of a user sample kit editor. It allows for (1) sample playback for auditioning purposes (2) an "emulation" of how the samples will sound on the mega drive (as in, just bit depth and sample rate taken into account, playing back the actual data that the sega will playback).

It works so far, and allows you to load samples into the GenMDM firmware ROM ala LSDJ kit manager.

Although it's not very useable yet, I am very excited for this and I hope that you guys will like it.

Here's a simple gui, though the final one will have 16 sample slots...

Finally, I am currently working on a simple solution for 5-pin DIN setups.

I am looking at integrating the code into the firmware, allowing for a single firmware that covers USB and DIN MIDI.

The hardware would be simple (optocoupler, resistors, 5 pin DIN connector).

Anyway, wish me luck and if it works I'll make a tutorial.

Seeing all of this new info and these new features pop up between Seb and Aly makes me even more glad I bought one of these. Thanks to both of you for doing so much for this hardware and this scene.

This is great!
2 things on my wishlist almost there smile

On the top of my wishlist then is a way to store and recall "instruments" settings in Max 4 Live
or does anybody know a way to do this?

Pressing the little floppy icon in the top right of the max4live panel will let you save your settings as a preset.

I have tried to use the Save Preset and Hot Swap Preset buttons, but it only works with some settings.
-Global Strip works with all parameters
-DAC Strip works with all except Custom Waveform
-FM Channel Strip works with the 5 first parameters in the "box" but all the 40 operator knobs disappear totally in the saved version ???

I use Live 8.2.2, M4L 5

eptheca, which GenMDM tools version are you using (i.e. from when?)

Are you using the GenMDM v101 tool set?

Offline

yes, but I have tried with the previous version as well, same problem
the whole genMDM_OP disappears

Offline

Look, I've just tried it with genmdm v101 tools, os x 10.7.3, live 8.3.4 and Max for Live from Max 6 engine...

No issues whatsover.

I have an idea of what it might be... I am currently working on a GUI update for the FM channel editor, what I will do is simplify the patch so that this issue theoretically doesn't happen... wish me luck!
