Re: [oberheim] Matrix 1000 firmware fun

2016-01-04 by Bob Grieb

Hello John,

    The Matrix 6 already displays values as they are edited over MIDI.
The M1000 does not.   The code that I made which adds that feature
is for the Matrix 1000.   Is that what you are speaking of?

   Bob

 Your version works fine for me, except for not showing
 the values as it changes. If it would do all the matrix
 parameters also, it would be perfect, but I know that's
 essentially impossible if you also want speed. I would like
 the version with the display
  updating if you want to distribute it. 
 Thanks for all the hard work that's going into
 this. It really makes the M6 work so much better!

 Rev 1.16 eliminates the CPU stalling if you hit it with a
 barrage
 
 of MIDI parmeter updates. It actually does that better than
 my code, but 
 
 it does it by discarding the slow parameter updates while
 they are coming in
 
 at a rate faster than the CPU can handle. My code does not
 discard
 
 any parameter updates, but processes a number of them
 faster.
 
 So if you are judging how well it all works by whether the
 CPU stalls,
 
 then V1.16 should win. If you are judging it based on how
 fast you can
 
 update certain parameters over MIDI, then my code should
 win.
 
 
 
 BTW, I have a new version that displays the value for a
 parameter as
 
 it's being updated. Send me an email using the contact
 info on my web site
 
 if you are interested. tauntek.com

 Hi Bob, sorry for the long delay. Finally got to test
 
 rev1.19. I used an edirol controller, kenton
 
 control freak SE and M1000 rev1.19. 
 
 I tested VCF Freq, VCF Resonance, LFO 1 &
 
 LFO2 and all 3 ENV's (ADSR)I did not notice
 
 any delay or lagging in parameter updating on my Kenton
 and
 
 the sound is pretty smooth.I think its a good
 
 thing.
 
 I also tested rev1.16 with exactly the same setup
 
 as above and I did not detect any differences or lagging
 
 between either rev's.  I'm not sure I should
 
 notice a difference with my hardware setup but I'm
 sure
 
 I would if I'd pop rev1.13 in there. 
 
 I will try to test and compare the two rev's
 
 with Midiquest soon as possible and give you more
 
 fdbkon testing with the editor.Those
 
 are my observations for the moment.
 
 Thanks again
