Working MIDI devices

They do, I’ll have to try that out. Thanks for the recommendation.

I did some testing with that cable. It works for me using my Ableton Move but I can’t get it to work with the MetaModule.

i have two of those usb midi adapters. i linked them together with couplers and im getting midi back/forth between my mm and windows. wonder why it doesnt work for you

I am using the MIDI in/out on the back of my Behringer interface. Perhaps that is difference. I will have to look at the 2 cable + couplers method.

i will say its a bit confusing with this particular usb-din adapter, the cable that says “out” on it is actually the in- so the “out” labeled cable on the adapter needs to be plugged into the out port on whatever device you’re plugging it into.

Intellijel Metropolix over USB - Working
Torso T-1 over USB - doesn’t work :frowning:
OPXY - doesn’t work

Firmware 2.02

Both appear to also be midi hosts. Midi Hosts don’t play well with other midi hosts.

If anyone has a MIDI device that does NOT work then try this firmware: https://github.com/4ms/metamodule/releases/download/firmware-v2.0.6-rc1/metamodule-firmware-v2.0.6-rc1-firmware-assets.zip

It specifically adds support for NI controllers but also fixed a bug that was probably causing issues with other controllers as well.

This will be part of the v2.0.6 release if you want to wait for the official firmware.

Here’s a way to deal with the noise issue when connecting a Launch Control XL. (I own the old version, not sure if the Mk3 still has the same problem)

I found that the problem is caused by the LED driver/dimmer circuit. I went into the editor and switched off every status LED under the knobs. The noise got reduced by about 95%, and the setup is now fully usable.

Those LED’s are of not much use anyway imo. Just labelled the knobs using washi tape.

Magnificent detective work there! Yes it impacts both versions, I have both, and you have the solution, TY (EDIT) Confirmation on the newer model, no noise at all (EDIT 2) at the start but then it began maybe a bit quieter.

Electra one mk1 working here

2.0.6 also fixed MIDI over USB from both the Digitakt II & Digitone II for me.
