A simple midi recorder. Use it to pump out some notes while testing a synth or creating pre-sets.

Thanks billy - always handy to have a 'signal generator' on the test bench! 🙂

mhhh.... i can´t open the OSM for some reason.... sm 1.1.7 crashes onload, sm2 (latest version) gives me the error message "Improper Argument encountered" 🙁

Works fine here, but I notice that it is saved with the DS out enabled. That does seem to cause random problems for various people when a schematic is loaded to a machine with a different soundcard to the machine it was saved on. I always have to use ASIO on my main music machine, the DS out has never worked because I have all Windows sounds disabled, so there is no 'Default' audio device.
Always best to post schematics with the ASIO/DS out turned off, just to be on the safe side (and prevent spurious bug reports!).

hey billv any chance of reposting your OSM with Asio/DS disabled? perhaps thats indeed the way to solve my loading problem. And thx for the Hint trog! what do you think about a feature request for automatically disabling the sounddriver if a OSM file gets saved? or at least a option to enable/ disable such a option in the otions panel.??? i don´t see a real reason WHY the driver has to be be active immediately after loading the schematic...

+1 on auto disable soundcards. I always have to switch it off when save.

No worries-
Strange bug-never heard of it before-posted heaps of Osm's too, so i don't really understand why it's popped up now(even though Trogg's explanation makes sense). Thanks for the tip-will bear it mind next time i upload.

I'm only working in SM2-so I can't vouch for SM 1.17. The only reason I upgraded was to keep up with you guys at the forum because I couldn't open up SM2 Osm's with SM 1.17. But hey philter5, why are you still working in SM 1.17-do you hate the SM2 toolbox as well??? ha ha

thx for the OSM billv 😉 ...i´ll try it later at home.. and: YES, i REALLY hate the toolbox system in SM2 😝 , that´s why i work with both versions. tbh, my toolbox in SM 1.17 is a mess, too hehe.... i am not the best organised developer, in other words: i like chaos 😀 have upgraded to SM2 professional with the same reason: to keep track of the nice little things that run ONLY with SM2

I know I have! My soundcard is very funny about schematics where only a few primitives separate ASIO In from ASIO out - but I have found a really weird workaround. I have to save with no links to the ASIO In, then when I load it, I connect a mono readout to the ASIO In, start it up, delete the mono readout - and, hey presto, I can connect up just fine after that!
The difficulty is that the issue is specific to certain soundcard hardware and drivers, so there's no way that Malc can test all the possibilities. In my case, I don't even get a crash dump file that he can use to help him isolate the problem.

Don't blame you. When I first upgraded It gave me a head ache and after 3 days I got rid of it and went back to 1.17. I understand that we have to move to a "Flowstone engine" maybe, but not a "Flowstone Toolbox". This is SM. That's my number one wish for SM3 now-Get all flowstone stuff into 1 section and give us back the SM toolbox.
