Fresh restrt of 56 input Megadrum...Yamaha TP120SD issue

[AndyB]

yea thats what I used...I am checking where you pointed to go now. Thanks

[AndyB]

Your MegaDrum is ARM (STM32F205RCT6) based judging by your photos so you must use STM32d firmware and you don't need to choose Crystal frequency. If firmware update failed for any reason use procedure from viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1252 to restore/reload firmware.

Im using windows 7 and at command prompt
mdfwupdate.exe megadrum644_20111213.bin is there an easier way?

ok i got it... whew

Ok so after all that, I got up and running again. I tried your settings it worked until I tried to save it. The same issue happened again. It has something to do with the grey choke on and choke off. I have to hit a side zone six times for the head to be able to trigger again. Then i will hit the head and after some time (it varies 4-10x that I hit the head) and again it goes silent until I hit that same zone (side stick or rimshot) zone 6x. Its like is turning it off and on...hence the choke on & off. Why is there the center last positional & rim on the far right ...is that positional sensing? I didnt think I had that. Im a little confused as the toms and kick work fine so far as a starting point. Here is a pic.

I will re-test it again.
Positional sensing indicators were introduced in MDM as per http://www.megadrum.info/forums/viewtop ... f=4&t=3018 for pads which support it on inputs with precision rectifiers (Positional sensing addon).

[AndyB]

Thanks. I've never tried positional sensing pads. I've always been Yamaha but im going to switch.

Saved to Slot1 from MDM. All zones still trigger no mater in which order I hit them.
Saved to Slot1 from MegaDrum itself. All zones still trigger no mater in which order I hit them.
Power cycled MegaDrum with Slot1 config autoloaded. All zones still trigger no mater in which order I hit them.

Don't see any problem, nothing goes silent.
Can you give me exact steps to reproduce the problem?
Could it be that your xp-120 has mechanical/electrical problem?

[AndyB]

It happens with the tp65s and a mesh dual zone I have as well

[dmitri]

Ok, then please tell me exact steps to reproduce the problem and show in the MIDI Log with a red marker/arrow where the problem is.

I can try later this week. But I just decided to try & upload the tp120sd file from powehell library and it works without those issues. Mind you it triggers by itself which I will try and fix but it at least gives me 2 zones and doesn't stop triggering when the rim zone is hit.
