Changelog

  • FIXED - issue where Note messages do not get sent via TRS MIDI OUT

Firmware v3.8.7

Bug Fixes

  • Just one thing: Added incoming MIDI clock integration. Incoming MIDI clock signals will set internal MIDI Clock BPM so Waveform/Sequence generators can sync to incoming MIDI Clock BPM.
    • Incoming MIDI Clock BPM will be displayed on the LCD, but will not blink. BPM display will only blink when MIDI clock is being generated by the controller

Firmware v3.8.5

New features

  • Integration with Editor Settings in Editor v1.1.5
    • Selecting Load data using Switch Press in the Editor Settings will allow you to load data into the editor using switch presses, but some functions will be blocked (bank up/down etc) in the controller. Turning the setting OFF will not block any setting, but pressing the controller switches will not load data into the Editor. You need to select the preset from the editor dropdown box instead.

Changes

  • Improved MIDI Clock handling
    • More accurate MIDI clock thru
    • Turning ignore MIDI clock setting on will now just have the controller completely ignore MIDI clock and not pass it thru.
    • Incoming MIDI clock signals will no longer set internal MIDI clock. It will just get passed directly thru if the MIDI Thru settings are turned on

Bug fixes

  • Fixed Keystroke bug where multiple modifiers are not detected
  • Fixed MIDI Clock menu bug introduced in v3.8.4
  • Fixed issue with Sequencer where engines 1 & 2 follows same BPM

Firmware v3.8.4

Important changes in v3.8.4

  • When editing in the editor, pressing a switch on the controller no longer loads data into the editor. To select a preset in the editor, click on the Preset label on the Top Right of the editor, which will display a drop down box to select the preset to edit.
    • With the above change, you no longer need to exit editor mode when you want to test the controller

Changes

  • All Editor Mode blocks are removed. All features can run in editor mode. No more checking if you have exited editor mode.
  • Loading of Preset data into the editor will no longer be done with switch presses, but only via the Editor drop-down menu.
  • MIDI Clock Menu will not trigger MIDI Clock upon entering of menu. There is now a start option to start the MIDI Clock
  • If Ignore MIDI Clock setting is ON, MIDI Clock will be passed thru directly if MIDI Thru settings are ON. If Ignore MIDI Clock is OFF, incoming MIDI Clock will set the internal BPM.

Bug fixes

  • FIXED - Bank Up/Down message type executes within the preset, which causes the wrong sequence to run
    • For example, if Bank Up is programmed in Bank 1 Preset A Msg 4, it will execute and then Msg 5 onwards will run on Bank 2 Preset A instead.
  • FIXED - When uploading SysEx data for all banks if the custom bank sequence is active, it will upload according to the custom bank sequence, which causes confusion. Uploading SysEx data now only runs on the default bank sequence
  • FIXED - Bank Change Mode triggers Bank Presets when scrolling through banks.
  • FIXED - Bug on the MC6 Omniport 2 Edit menu where it is not possible to scroll past MIDI RING
  • FIXED - Sending PC messages above PC#29 will trigger Bank Presets without changing banks

  • FIXED - Using any text after placeholder (%E0 etc) does not appear. For example, %E0-PRE will not display -PRE
