MIDI Bug?

Discuss use it and firmware update
  • Anyone?

    I really want to be able to trigger my Nava with MIDI and currently I can not do it.
  • I think I've worked out the problem....

    The Nava doesn't recognise a Midi Note On Message With a Velocity of 0 as a Note Off.

    i.e.
    This MIDI Message should trigger the bass drum twice, but it only triggers it once because the Nava never "sees" a Note Off message.

    Code: Select all

    90 24 76   Chn# 1  Note On  C-1  Vel:118
    90 24 00   Chn# 1  Note Off C-1 (optimised)
    90 24 76   Chn# 1  Note On  C-1  Vel:118
    90 24 00   Chn# 1  Note Off C-1 (optimized)

    This MIDI message triggers the bass drum twice.

    Code: Select all

    90 24 66   Chn# 1  Note On  C-1  Vel:102
    80 24 40   Chn# 1  Note Off C-1  Vel:64
    90 24 66   Chn# 1  Note On  C-1  Vel:102
    80 24 40   Chn# 1  Note Off C-1  Vel:64
    The difference between the two is that the 2nd and 4th lines of the first group of messages sends the Note Off as Note On with 0 velocity, where as the second group's 2nd and 4th lines are proper Note Off messages.

    The Yocto treats "Note On 0 velocity" correctly (as per the official MIDI spec) as Note Off where as the Nava doesn't.

    Can this please be fixed?
  • Problem solved!

    I suggested the above to Vincent and he has fixed the issue in a new beta firmware.

    I guess he'll post a new version in the near future.
  • Great work! :)
  • Is the beta firmware already available? If yes where can I get it?

    Cheers
