HI all. I was just about to update my nava with latest beta primarily to use the new midi/pattern sysex load/dump feature but I can't work out how this works from reading the wiki.

Just realised the nava tools is for windows only? bummer.

As I don't have access to OS X it is not possible for me to develop for Mac.

The roll function is just like on the TR909: not implemented.

A new build has been created: https://github.com/BenZonneveld/Nava-20 ... a-20211219

*Fixed a bug where Expander Mode would not work after entering the config pages
*Implemented the faint Mute led in expander mode.
*Fixed volatile/temporary pattern groups not working like expected.
*The number of config pages and the current config page are shown using the step leds.

Special NOTE:

I removed the sending of MIDI Start/stop/continue command when in Slave mode.
This should not cause any problems but let me know if you use your Nava in a way where you need a Midi Slave to transmit these.

I just noticed I forgot to update the Wiki on this part.
Short version: when on Config Page 3 you can select Bank/Pattern etc. Pressing the Enter key will transmit the data.

This is something I do need to add to the wiki

I have noticed the december 2021 build of my firmware contains the unintended feature of being able to reset the Nava using Sysex also known as a system crash.
Trying to do a pattern, track or config dump will crash the Nava. Doing a bank dump works weirdly enough.

I'm looking into this to figure out what exactly I "didn't change" in that piece of code.

Can you tell me if OSX has Python?
If so I'm willing to try and create a python version.

It does!

It'd be great to sort something out for OSX if possible. I thought about getting hold of an old windows laptop purely for keeping Nava patterns in one place... so a Mac version would be a hell of a lot more practical.
