Hello all,
I recently left my church and since they needed a hardware synth more than
me I gave them my Roland XP-30. I needed a controller still so I picked up
an old Evolution MK-149 for crazy cheap. When I got it I plugged it into my
studio machine that has a M-Audio Delta1010lt and it worked flawlessly. So I
ordered a super cheap USB midi
cable<http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0017H4EBG/sr=8-1/qid=1299703370/…
Amazon to hook it up to my laptop. The midi cable is plug and play and
while I still had the Roland XP-30 I hooked it up and tested it and it
worked without issue. However, when I try to use it with the Evolution
MK-149 I got strange unusable behavior. If playing the same not it would
play 50% of the not properly and not send a midi off 10%. It would also play
a wrong note 5% of the time and drop about 50% of the notes. I hooked it up
to qmidiroute and confirmed that the midi messages themselves are getting
messed up. Does anyone have any advice for tracking down what the issue
is/how to correct it? It's strange that this combination of hardware doesn't
work. I may hook up my electronic drum kit to test it further.
Thanks in advance,

According to the reviews on the Amazon page, this cable (or at least one
of the models that are sold over this page) has buggy firmware, and from
what I can deduce from the hex dumps, it's so broken that it is not
possible to work around this in the driver.

Clemens

Yep; I bought a super-cheap MIDI cable on ebay that had much the same
problems, and if I remember correctly was of the same design. It's
worth paying the extra for a name brand that's been properly debugged;
whilst I'm sure a lot of these get sold, I'm equally sure they just
end up in landfills polluting our ecosystems.

I just uploaded v0.39 of GMorgan to SourceForge.
There are a couple of screenshots, an overview file and a tarball. It works
on 32 or 64 bit
Linux machines, but I don't know about windows.
If you have a midi keyboard and a linux machine, you can easily try it.
Please let me know what you think of it.

hallo,
very much thanks for announcing it here.
i get some strange errors when compiling it and than a segfault when
running it.
while running make:
Making all in po
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/nowhiskey/Desktop/src/gmorgan_0.39/po'
*** error: gettext infrastructure mismatch: using a Makefile.in.in from
gettext version 0.17 but the autoconf macros are from gettext version
@GETTEXT_MACRO_VERSION@
make[1]: *** [check-macro-version] Fehler 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nowhiskey/Desktop/src/gmorgan_0.39/po'
make: *** [all-recursive] Fehler 1
nowhiskey@murija5:~/Desktop/src/gmorgan_0.39$
but i am still able to run make install:
Making install in po
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/nowhiskey/Desktop/src/gmorgan_0.39/po'
*** error: gettext infrastructure mismatch: using a Makefile.in.in from

and than finally the program is installed, but when i start it a message
window comes up with:
'can't find the chordtable file. it should be a hidden file (preceded
with a dot) in your home directory'
clicking an 'close' :
nowhiskey@murija5:~/Desktop/src/gmorgan_0.39$ gmorgan
load Chord Table /home/nowhiskey/.ChordTable
error opening chordtable file ...
you may need to move the chordtable to a different directory

I only speak English, but when I first looked at gmorgan I was impressed how
internationalization was accomplished with gettext. So far I have been
paying
attention to the midi functionality and not what was wrong with gettext.
Can you suggest a way to straighten it out ? It would be good to at least
get
rid of the compiler warnings.
The original version was from Spanish speaking people I think, but
I cannot maintain the spanish or any other language versions. Come
to think of it, even English can be a challenge for me.
So really I am not qualified to do the internationalization.
Any help appreciated.
