Fwd: [Doggiebox-announce] 1C9: midi fixes and so on
Oops... I posted this to the announce list by mistake. Ah well! -ben ---------------- Begin Forwarded Message ---------------- Subject: [Doggiebox-announce] 1C9: midi fixes and so on Date Sent: Tuesday 17 August 2004 5:52 pm From: Ben Kennedy <ben@zygoat.ca> To: Doggiebox Announce List <doggiebox-announce@lists.zygoat.ca> CC: Sooz And Ken Boldt <kboldt@execpc.com> Hey all, Please grab the latest beta (after a little summer hiatus) at your convenience: <http://www.doggiebox.com/distribution/Doggiebox-1C9.zip> • Made some changes to the layout of the song document window to improve usability. • Implemented support for incoming MMC and standard MIDI Play and Stop commands (Doggiebox should now play and stop along with external devices). • Probably fixed a problem where all audio would drop out after a few seconds during MIDI playback. • During playback, the user is now prevented from switching new sections into view. Carl, Ken and others, let me know how the MIDI stuff is working out for ya in this new build. Also, remarks on the main song window changes are welcome -- thanks to Sterling for direction on that which is probably way overdue. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca _______________________________________________ Doggiebox-announce mailing list Doggiebox-announce@lists.zygoat.ca http://lists.zygoat.ca/mailman/listinfo/doggiebox-announce ----------------- End Forwarded Message ----------------- -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca

Any estimate of when a 1C10 might drift through the pipeline? No messing around of mine as gotten 1C9 to launch successfully for me :P While I'm thinking about MIDI and the testing thereof, I was wondering: to go along with MIDI export, how hard would import be; that is, to teach DB to read standard MIDI files to pick out the percussion bits and let the user associate them with the appropriate sounds in the local dbkit?

Somehow I missed replying to this one last week. Yeah, MIDI import is definitely something important... but along the lines of my previous msg where I talked about internal representation, this will probably wait a little bit until the new framework is in place. At that time, it should be quite easy. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
