Issue with MIDI signal in 3.0 vs. 2.1 (see videos attached)

Hi, cool set up. What is the release date of MyDMX 3? and are you using it on windows or Mac?

Hi there - thank you! Most of our moving lights are loaded for a show tomorrow, so that's just the basics.

We are using the Beta 3.0 (September 22 2020) - the released January 13 2020 one does the same thing.

This is running on a Microsoft Surface PC with Windows 10.

oh, ok, that's strange. I think I will have the development team look at the video from this thread and see what they think.
We'll know more Monday morning probably.

Some additional background - I turned on the MIDI Watcher, just to see what might be happening, and there seems to be some random Control Changes that appear after the lights go crazy. I don't  think they're coming from the app, I certainly haven't set up any especially on channels 15, 16, etc. so I'm not sure where they come from.

Did you import your dlm from 2.1 or did you start fresh? It's possible there could be an issue with the midi after it imported from dlm to DVC...

I imported it from 2.1 - it would be literally hundreds of hours to rebuild what has taken us the last 2 years to build in 2.1.

so, try this, open the dlm file from my DMX 2.1 into MyDMX 3, then save it as a myDMX 3 .DVC file and then open it from the DVC file, does that help?
We are still waiting for developer feedback on any potential midi changes made from 2.1 to 3.0
ok? Let me know.
sorry for the delay.

Good evening - thank you for the suggestion to try. I just attempted this - it unfortunately still causes the lighting to go haywire when the MIDI signal stops going to MyDMX 3.0.

Perhaps there's a parameter I'm missing when I'm setting up the MIDI programming of the scene to a MIDI note on from my keyboard? There are so many additional parameters that were not in 2.1.

Here is a screenshot of how each scene is triggering via the MIDI note:

ok so i heard back a bit more from one of the techs at the developers office.

"You can import the show file from previous software as they have been doing, MIDI is implemented differently, MyDMX2.1 only uses MIDI IN, and MyDMX3 uses MIDI IN & OUT. This shouldn’t necessarily cause the flickering the customer experiences, however as it is implemented different, I believe the best action is to test a couple of scenes being re-mapped to MIDI in MyDMX3 to ensure the shortcut is current and see if the issue still remains. I would also ask to have a copy of their show file so I can test it here too."

So try this and let us know, we can also take a look at the show file if you want, you can shoot it over to me at jamesk@adj.com

Good afternoon James,

I'm attaching my imported and saved 3.0 file.

When I loaded the DLM file from 2.1 , my MIDI settings did not work in the
new program, so I had to remap all the keys on my keyboard to all the same
scenes so they now work the same way in both 2.1 and 3.0.

Any help would definitely be appreciated to figure out this issue, it's the
last thing holding me back from making the full change over to 3.0 for
using in our shows.

Thank you!

Paul

Thanks! I will have your file looked at. We’ll get back to you as soon as we know something.
