The latest version of arduinoboy has a editor that allows you to change the midi channels as well as other settings.
Damn I'm getting slow and stupid, didnt even notice that max file. Thanks!
Anyone have succesfully changed the channels mGB receives on those .pde files?
I read this thread but when I try to update the midiGB.pde, it gives error:
Arduinoboy1_2_2.cpp: In function 'void modeMidiGb()':
Mode_MidiGb:47: error: 'sendFSByteToGameboy' was not declared in this scope

It would be awesome to sort this out, since I have synth that I cant change its receiving channel (and even if I had, I would have to change 20+ songs midi sends..)
Im down, if clear deadline is set.
Ok, this is fucking crazy, it seems it was a piece of bad wire or bad contact on my breadboard.. now everything works just fine. Thanks for help everyone, hope this helps some poor soul later on.
Theres 4 wires in my Nyko-cable , SIN, SOUT, SCK and Ground. Do I have to connect ground to the board even when the power isnt coming from GB? I think I tried that already too..
Ok, still no luck. I double checked link cables wiring and I'm 100% sure that I know which one is SIN, SOUT, GND and SCK. LSDJ as master works, also I got Slave-mode working for a while at least. Sometimes after yesterdays tinkering when I try to cycle the modes it gets stuck after mode 5, when I push the button I see the 3 leds flash, then I push it again it flashes all and after that nothing. Also sometimes the BPM jumps crazy on Ableton Live when LSDJ is master.
Can my problems be about powering or is faulty parts? Both ends transfer the sync to board at least. Frustrating as I got this mainly for mGB, heh.
Ok, thanks! I'll try to figure out whats going on, I tried to check the cable colors from the jack but I guess I could have made a mistake.
And yeah, I've checked the optoisolator already, if I flip it, the leds wont flash when midi is sent in.. also I think its the same thing with midi in wires, if I flip them, no leds.
Hi!
So I got parts to build my Arduinoboy, finally. Problem is that it seems that midi doesnt go in.. on mGB-mode all the right channel leds blink correctly with notes sent to channels 1,2,3 and 4. Also in LSDJ sync mode the leds blink correctly. mGB doesnt say anything, and LSDJ doesnt start when set as slave.
LSDJ works as master correctly, so the problem is somewhere either in midi input (although the data goes to the leds correctly?) or gameboys cable, right? My cable was a Nyko cable (those purple ones) so it doesnt have 5V power in it. I'm using Arduino (battery powered) 5V input to power my breadboard version. but if the gb cable can send the sync out, it should be ok too? Or how is the cables data divided to pins? Is it possible that only one or two of them is working and not all three that should be connected to my Arduino board? All the parts should be as in the official instructions, besides my led resistors that are 2.05 kOhm instead of 2k.
I followed as closely as possible the official google project- page and this: http://2playermusic.tumblr.com/post/703 … arduinoboy (I used the .png there as my main instructions since other pics in flickr were outdated and I'm not too good at reading schematics).
Any help is appreciated!
One more BUMP!
Can trade it for Korg DS10 + Akai LPD8 or cash or which way ever.
If you're willing to buy/trade it from Europe, just mail me videovalvontaa (a) gmail.com.
Enjoyed 'Bent' alot, especially the finishing track, GREAT athmosphere! Not having time to listen everything else now but will come back.
I havent build mine yet, I guess I have to take a visit at local electronic store to get couple of components Im still missing..I absolutely hate that store:)
But still if someone has a spare one they dont need, msg / email me.
For trade I can offer Korg DS10 and maybe some cash?
This is like Nickelodeon meets Ren & Stimpy, awesome!
Anyone have a spare?
I'm building my own one too on breadboard now but dont want necessary to use my Arduino-board just for that..
Name your price and mail me:
videovalvontaa (a) gmail.com
Good stuff!
