Pattern export / import options
Posted: Apr 24th, '17, 07:54
I think this deserve the dedicated thread.
How can i backup patterns from nava (and preferably restore them later) ?
So, as for now the only possible options i can see:
- Connect (for example) raspberry pi to nava ISP port and download the entire EEPROM from AVR.
- Another possible option using only existing I/O ports is transferring the pattern data via MIDI SYSEX, but this must be implemented in firmware first. (maybe i missed something and it's already there?)
- And (yet another) option is adding USB<->serial converter hooked up to AVR, like in xoxbox - but the software must be written and firmware updated accordingly. Also it needs the additional case hole (but i think the power switch hole can be reused for usb socket)
