set up the hack and using the norns midi monitor app can see only note offs coming through ie no note ons. so close. i move the midi cable out of the 4i/o and into another midi source and note ons appear in norns. i played around with the Baudrate as per instructions, the x+1 or 20, 100 etc. but no luck. any thoughts what this could be. oh yeah and the tx light on the arduino that was flashing in time with the gate in previous ttymidi tests isn't flashing any more if that means anything. That means that no data is leaving the arduino so no midi is sent.

Looking over the code again, I remember that I also specified the baud rate in line 12 in creation of the MIDI custom instance code, so try change it there too if you haven’t already!

cheers yes did see that and changed it too but no luck.
Just a question for the code in general as I am very simple when it comes to this.
from what I can understand the code at the moment is purely note on/note off for a particular arduino pin. If I would like to trigger samples say from a device in this case Norns I just need to map that particular CC to that sample once a note on is established.
Is there a way currently or in the future to choose an incoming CC position so you would have one gate but a different cc position each time or that is way more coding. that would be cool for Grains too like you mentioned earlier, to trigger a chosen word for example.

I should be able to help with that! Hope to work on it tomorrow. Sorry, got my COVID booster shot the other day and it messed me up, haha

sweet but take your time, no rush, because first thing is to get better. That knocked me around too.

firstly, hope you are feeling better! secondly Success!! I am now getting both note on and offs using the hack using the following set ups that you have suggested BaudRate 31250 on line 12 and 39 note = x+20 on line 74 I did test those numbers earlier and still received only note offs but I remembered what pt3r mentioned that if the tx light wasn't flashing there was maybe no midi connection, and I was getting this in my initial testing with the ttymidi. I therefore connected the Usb out of the arduino into midi slot 2 of the norns (while the trs hack was connected to the Ae and Norns) which made the tx light flash on the arduino and I then started receiving note on and offs through the hack on midi slot 1. I then removed the usb to norns and the note on/offs continued. Could be nothing but it started once I did that. Another thing it could be is the connection is very fussy because even if I touch the Arduino it sends into the norns all types of note on/offs and other messages. If I leave it alone its fine. before I did the above USB test it went back to note offs only but now it goes back to note on and offs. With reference to the Timber player in Norns. It now receives a note on for sample 20 for pin D2 (which makes sense re the note = x+ 20) and 21 for pin D3 and so on. Therefore I am thinking that with the note ons working now if I changed the X+20 back to X+1 it should send a note on for sample 1 but I'm not game to touch anything just yet.......... now it's time to experiment with the gates and samples. Thanks very much for this reductionist_earth_catalog I'm going to have lots of fun and also pt3r for your help

Good to hear you're getting there, debugging software is a dirty job (especially when there urgent work stuff to be fixed just before the weekend) but someone has to do it

Oh awesome, glad to hear it is working to some extent! Work got really busy (we just had our big lab inspection yesterday, so hopefully I will have a bit more bandwidth for ae stuff again). Hope to see y’all at the meetup!
