Well, everything was coming along very nicely. The sequencer now
generates MIDI time code as well as start and stop MIDI commands. The
joystick is working in its original mode and I found a couple of bugs
to clean up and generally everything is coming along exactly as it
should - right?
Wrong!
My joystick code has thrown a spanner into the sequencer works. And
now it plays its sequence the way a drunk walks home. The MIDI time
code comes out looking like a yo-yo doing around the world in eighty
days - badly. Notes also play like the humanize function has been set
to somewhere way past maximum.
On testing I found that the joystick analog to digital converter code
needs to be optimized by converting it from a linear tracker into a
successive approximator. Hopefully, I'll be able to do that this weekend.
Anyway, that's it for now.
Mike.
