Subject: Re: [korgpolyex] Re: Revisiting NRPN's problem

Actually, I tell a lie. The RemoteSL does not send them short style.

But nevertheless, my tests with amidi showed that the HAWK does handle the short versions of the messages as expected.

No, I would say it is the same code. Are you certain that you flashed all three sysex blocks of the firmware?

My RemoteSL25 does the same thing your controllers do. It sends NRPN's based upon what has changed since the last NRPN message. So if the MSB and LSB are the same as before then only the data message gets sent. If the LSB changes then it will send the LSB and then the data. If the MSB changes then it will send that then data. And finally, if MSB and LSB are both different then they all get sent.

HAWK responds correctly to all of the above.

I also ran tests using amidi on LINUX as follows:

So this must be quite frustrating but I am sure we'll figure it out.

Try to flash all three version 2.5.7 files again.

I checked my HAWK and it indeed does have v2.57 installed.My guess is that is the same code you just posted up.. unless it's a 2.57b?Any other ideas? I'd even send you this Evolution controller to use for testing, since I'm sure if you get it working, all the others will work too.
