Aeros firmware 3.4.x

What is CC 85? It’s not in the latest documentation.

This is needed for a MIDI self test, not used for anything else. Since it is part of the backdoor functionality and has no other use, we don’t include it in the documentation

@Quad

Would love to do this while the song is playing … to park/unpark the midi handsfree (e.g., to change the drums without changing the loop).

We will likely build a MIDI go to home command to help with this, first we have to deal with that annoying extra save request, which I personally despise and will be glad to do away with it

@Quad

Hopefully a more generic hands free feature is added at some point.

We do intend on looking at stabdalong hands-free expansion for this too

@Quad

This is now the behavior when pressing and holding the stop button? Is it an option? Seems confusing to have a clear feature that doesn’t clear everything by default.

This is the new norm, to make locking less annoying if you intend to start over many times. Feel free to suggest an alternative to this behavior!

@Quad

Imho the big issue here is that clearing a song is touted as an easier way to create a new song. If you make an easy, hands free way to create a new song without cluttering up the song list until I save it, then the above issue is less concerning.

We have some ideas for this, and as to the clutter, we are considering allowing deletion of empty songs when switching songs, possibly by having a pop saying something along the lines of: This song is empty, would you like to delete it?

@Brockstar

Where do I report bugs for this new firmware? I just tried the new firmware and testing. In settings page scrolling real slow upwards on the wheel (doesn’t seem to do it on scrolling downwards so far) sometimes make the wheel speed up real fast back to the starting point by itself?

Here is fine but if you want to track an issue you must post it as its own topic as outlined in the Bug Report doc. Make your post in the Aeros Bugs/Help section, thanks!

We are looking into this issue, thanks for reporting

@BFRedrocks

Is there a way to go from the Loop Studio (with a full song/loop) back to the Home screen hands-free?

Not directly unfortunately, the best option now is to save and go to the songs list or save and create a new blank song (using MIDI).

We have plans to expand hands-free capabilities standalone on the looper but Dev has told us this has implications that could take a while to implement and so we want to look at other pressing issues first, this is probably not long after MIDI expansion is done.

@BFRedrocks

Is there a way to go from the Loop Studio (with a full song/loop) back to the Home screen hands-free or is that a separate MIDI command I’d have to program?
