Re: Trying to get MIDI in on nanoloop 2.5.5 (21 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
isn't there a nanoloop sync mode in lsdj that would let you sync both just via link cable? or is there a 3rd party you wish to sync with midi?
Ok, I should've explained what I'm trying to do.
My main goal is to use LSDJ as a midi controller, releasing midi out data to a drum machine (clock), a shruthi (notes and CC) and nanoloop (clock). So, that's why I was trying to get Nano to receive sync via midi.

You can set the adaptor to sync mode with ./nlmidi02 -SYNC (note the CAPS) so that sync mode remains when the adaptor is removed. You should then be able to use it with any USB-MIDI host.
However, in most cases, that will be a PC. USB with its host/client architecture is a PC technology.Of course you can sync it to an other device through the PC. I haven't tried sync yet, but I could for example play mGB with a USB-MIDI keyboard attached to the PC.
What I was trying to do is let nanoloop receive midi clock from lsdj (that modified lsdj version by trash80s). But when I just connect my midi/usb cable on the nano midi adapter, nanoloop goes crazy on the sync screen, running the steps randomly.
If there is some demand, I can try to make a real MIDI-adaptor with the same functionality as the USB version.
I believe that would be highly appreciated by the community, once a lot of people don't know or don't have the patience for building an arduinoboy.

But indeed, there is no way to control it thru another device other than the PC. It's sad.

on the mac (or any unix based sytem) to execute a file in the current directory you have to prefix ./ so the command should start with ./nlmidi02
IT WORKED! Thanks a lot folks!

Did you mistype the number in the terminal, or in your reply?
Nope, the file in the folder is nlmidi02.

Ok, I'll look for that. In the meanwhile, that software means there is no way to control Nanoloop through this midi adapter, running any other device as midi master other than the PC, right?
thanks for your help!

Damn. Terminal gives me a "command not found" when I try to give the nlmidi02 command. But I gave a ls command and the file is there inside the folder.

That ^ and did you run the Nl midi software on the mac to set it to sync?
I thought there was a software only for backing up/dumping Nanoloop data. What midi software is that?

Topic: Trying to get MIDI in on nanoloop 2.5.5 (21 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
Hey folks:
I have a GBA with a nanoloop 2.5.5 cart. I have a link cable. I have a macbook running ableton live and I have this: http://nanoloop.com/midi/index.html
Somehow, can't get nano to receive midi data from Ableton (everything is setup correctly on Ableton). I set nano to receive synch data (A+B), but nothing happens when I playback anything on Ableton.
Any tips on that?

I prefer to listen to a lot of different music and then put all of it inconsciently on the music I write.
I've been doing this for the past 20 years and it has been working so far.

Re: Korg Monotribe (27 replies, posted in Other Hardware)
the only thing that really pisses me off is the lack of decent playable keyboard.
The fact that it doesn't save different patterns pisses me way more.
And that is one of the reasons I'm selling it and buying a shruthi instead.

You can make easy mods on it for changing the drums decay.
If you open up your monotribe, you'll see Korg basically wrote "bending points here" on the pcb.
