Hi, I don’t want to whine, and I appreciate the work being put into the changes, but I’ve found an issue with the change in behavior with the Outro.
Before if I sent a Midi outro and the BB wasn’t playing, the BB did nothing. Now whether its playing or not, if I send an outro MIDI message (CC 115), it plays the outro of the current song. I can’t see a setting to change that, and I can’t think why we’d want it to do that. It should act like fill, when it only does a fill, if a song is playing. An example of why this is an issue for me, is if I’m recording something and the BB is playing and I hit stop, in daw, or surface, or foot pedal, or looper, then I want to stop the BB if it playing. Now if I’m recording something else and stop, it plays an outro even though I’m not using it and I have to wait for it stop before I can start recording again.
Can we put the previous behavior back of it ignoring the midi message if its not playing? I’d rather not roll back, but reprogramming everything to remove the BB CC message would be a pain.
Sorry I’m getting confused going thru all the posts in this thread, could someone point me to link to the latest firmware (3.9.9 is it?) and the new manual? thanks!
edit: oops saw the first post in thread was January, thought it was old but saw the May edit and found the links. There was an older lady who hiked the Appalachian trail years ago, did a great job but got lost frequently. I think I must be related to her lol.
Hi!
So, how do you implement a Mix Vol (CC108) INC and DEC under the new firmware?
The current MIDI documentation (for previous firmware) has an example for TEMPO INC and DEC, for which MSB/LSB pairs are required, but the CC108 instruction shouldn’t need the pair since its value goes between 0 and 100.
this is not really being reported by anyone nor do we see this internally, is there any audio or video you could point to so that we could look into this claim?
Does everyone want the Beatbuddy to play the outro when Paused and the Outro command is hit? I liked it the better the old way when you paused the beat and hit the outro the Beatbuddy just stopped. This is frustrating because if you pause the Beatbuddy at the end of a song that has an outro there is no way to quietly stop.
I don’t have an estimate to give right now, unfortunately. But we have not left the project behind at all, we are still working towards the perfect version for you all! We appreciate your patience and apologize for all inconvenience this has caused.
I believe, correct me if I’m wrong, that you are using an external pedal to start an outro, if so there is a solution.
Go to Main Pedal > Unpause Behavior > External Unpause > Outro and set it to Always Stop.
Unfortunately, the previous behavior (arguably) makes less sense. If sending an Outro command, you can set the External Pedal (footswitch or MIDI) to always stop, and split from the Main Pedal Outro Enabled/disabled setting. This should give you the previous behavior.
Let me know!
The good news is you’re likely not clairvoyant . In all seriousness this could not be further from the truth, BBM 2.0 is still a major goal for us to finish ASAP.
Brennan, I appreciate your support in the forums…good stuff.
The only way you are going to have us get past the skepticism on the BBM seeing daylight is for you folks to deliver. Period. It will need to be solid too, please do not have your user base be the alpha testers.
Hi David!
Quick bug report:
Since updating to 3.9.9 my BB often stays on the same song part after the transition fill instead of transitioning to the next part.
When I first read your comment I misunderstood it. I just figured out the setting you’re talking about and yes this does exactly what I need. Thank you for your patience!! And thanks for all your hard work!!
The same thing happens to me…not constant and unpredictable.
the software is not good. i went back to 3.8
this phenomenon has been around for a long time. Too bad nothing happened to it
. In all seriousness this could not be further from the truth, BBM 2.0 is still a major goal for us to finish ASAP.
