Title: More Known Bugs
Post by Jamie OConnell on Oct 27th, 2001, 11:39am
The following have been reported, and will be fixed in the next release:
  • Two problems associated with Instrument Definitions: 1) Prevent infinite recursion when a Bank is based on itself. 2) Repair parsing of certain .INS files.
  • A problem when loading Profiles: the PortMap is not always properly obeyed.

Hi Jamie, thank you for this spectacular utility!

I have a problem that may be related to the problem #2 that you described. When I attach a .oxm translation to an output port, it seems to get lost when I save and reload a profile. Am I doing something wrong? I would love to have this feature because it allows me to send patch changes and controller info without notes to certain ports to set up my effects.

Are you using the Beta or the shipping version (6.5.1)?

This seems to be happening for me with the Beta and the shipped version (6.5.1) under win95 and XP.

Also, I am using the drag & drop method attach the .oxm map from the Port Map Objects window to the Port Mapping window. Is there another method?

In the Beta, a Routings View has been added: View | Port Routings...   You can right-click on any connection line, choose Properties... and assign a map or remove an assignment.

What a great GUI. Very useful and you can see the connections at a glance. I am playing with MIDI OX on a WIN2000 professional platform here at work (don’t tell my boss).

The connection Properties window works better than drag and drop but there are still some bugs. Here is what I have found out:

1.      You must have a map folder selected from the options menu if you want reliable operation when you attach an .oxm translation to an output port.

2.      When you save and recall a Profile not all of the .oxm translation file attachments are restored. I was experimenting with 2 inputs and 2 or 4 outputs providing 4 or 8 connections and filling all connections with a unique map file. Typically 2 out of 4 or 6 out of 8 map files get restored, the rest are cleared to “<none>”.

3.      If you look in the .ini file after you save the profile you only see some of the .oxm paths listed.

1)  This is by design: only maps stored in the Maps folder (pointed to by Options | Folders...) are available to be attached to Ports.  It may be a limitation, but it's not a bug.

2) and 3) There was a problem with applying Profiles.  Thanks for the report.
