IM sorry Dmitri my english is awful

1) when I want to save the note settings made ​​in the MDM,when I loading this setting all notes settings are at zero (c-1) and all the changes have not been saved

2) I want to use megadrum as midi mallet control (since 2 or 3 years ago IM trying to finish :oops: ) and I make the virtual bars with a comon piezoelectric mic , I have two diatonic octaves.
When I use MDM to see what bar was hit it , In the MIDIlog appears three diferents kind of piezo ( my fisical piezo are all the same) blue (head hit) green (rim hit) orange (3rd zone hit) and sometimes yellow,
I need the same input for all piezo


Im exciting because I m progress very very slowly with this project but something is something

Somebody in the forum tried to made a midi mallet ?


Thank you very much and sorry about my english

I cannot reproduce your problem. This is why I asked you to "Describe what you do and what you expect in more details for me to reproduce the problem. "

I still don't understand what the problem is. Maybe somebody else understands it and can clarify it for me?

I think he's getting confused by the fact that different inputs are showing up as differently coloured bars in MDM - if a pad is set as dualpad:no, does the second piezo on a stereo input still show up with a different colour in MDM? I reckon that's the problem.

Firmware 20140629

config names not loading on start up - need to press 'get'
High level auto does transfer from MDM to MD but does not reset high level to 64. This can only be set from MD.

Am I the only one with these two issues?

Sorry, I don't quite get what the issues are. Can you explain in a bit more detail?

Sure
Config names don't load, in MDM, at start up. Need to press 'get' for then to show. I assume this doesn't get saved with the mds file.

The other issue is that, ticking the high level (MDM) and 'send' doesn't reset the MD high level to 64, as it does when doing this in MD. I suppose you could send the value (64) from MDM.

I was going to do a video on setting up pads with MD as so many people seem to be having trouble. It will be easier to do a screen version with MDM rather than 'blair witch' style.

This is intended behavior. MDM can only get/change current MegaDrum Config because MDM doesn't know in advance how many configs MegaDrum has and which one is currently loaded.

Resetting HighLevel in the MegaDrum Menu when enabling HiLvlAuto is a like a helper because bringing HighLevel from say 900 to 64 in the Menu can take time. In MDM changing HighLevel from 900 to 64 is just a matter of 1 or 2 clicks and 2 keyboard presses. Do you think that resetting HighLevel in MDM when ticking 'HighLevel Auto' is better then current behavior?

Fair point Dmitri, I hadn't looked at it that way.

Maybe consistency for the beginner? I think most would prefer to work from MDM but it's not a big deal.
