Problem loading my presets after a firmware upgrade.

Postby lrizzo2001 » Wed Jan 17, 2018 4:53 pm

So I'm on a new 56 input module that Dmitri built for me, I just upgraded the firmware yesterday. Now I'm finding that my previously saved presets are not loading properly. I had a preset saved for a Roland HH controller, now when I load it in, the settings are Nothing close to what I had. It's set to Pot instead of controller, the midi notes are all over the place, the chick thresholds are all wrong etc. Anybody else seeing this? I even had to Re-Tweak All my pad settings because the rims weren't triggering well again, this is after I had to re-tweak them because every input I enable throws off the other pads for whatever reason.

Where did you save the preset? In a file? Post the saved .mds file and will have a look.
If you saved it in a EEPROM slot in MegaDrum then it is not guaranteed to load properly after a firmware upgrade. To preserve presets between firmware upgrades you must save them externally, i.e. with MDMFX in config files.

I did a Load All and selected my .mds file which should be the settings for the entire kit. I also have a specific .mds files for HH pedal, but it load incorrect data.
I'll attach the file this evening.

I just tried loading both .mds and the pedal's .syx files and in both cases the Pedal's Type is shown as FootContr. You said 'It's set to Pot instead of controller'. So, what did you mean by this?

When I load the pedals .sys it shows it as POT, and none of the other settings are correct. It seems to be opening correctly for you.

Yes, it loads correctly in MDMFX.

I will download the new firmware tonight and test again.

Please take screenshots of MDMFX before loading the pedals .syx and after.
