Trying to use a simple IF/ELSE rule, but Stream Byter (MIDI Designer Pro) seems to refuse the "ELSE" keyword, marking it as #ERROR, no matter what.
But still nothing. A bug, maybe?  |

Hi edsaxman, The version of Stream Byter in Midi Designer is a little behind. The ELSE rule was added in a later version. Regards, Nic. |

D'oh! That's a pity. Any plans to update that?
How to replicate this behaviour without ELSE?:
IF ()
IF ()
....
ELSE
...
END
END
By the way, there is any way to invert the value of a boolean?

Hi edsaxman , > D'oh! That's a pity. Any plans to update that?You'd need to ask Dan about that. > How to replicate this behaviour without ELSE?:You need to simulate the ELSE with two IFs with each condition reversed. Be aware that if the first IF changes the data used in the test for the second IF, then you might see both IFs being true (ie. not a true else) eg:
# message is a note
IF M0 == 90
END
# messages is not a note
IF M0 != 90
END> By the way, there is any way to invert the value of a boolean?I tend to use xor operator '^' to do that (and use convention false = 0 and true = 7F) # toggle boolean (0 and 7F)
MAT I1 = I1 ^ 7FRegards, Nic. |

Thank you Nic! Got it!
Another question.... There is any way to send messages "on init"? I mean, once, just when the layout is loaded (think in sending some text to a LCD screen to show a welcome message or whatever.
I have tried using SND inside IF LOAD, but it dont seems to be working (not sending anything when the layout is loaded)

Hi edsaxman , That's the right technique (SND inside IF/LOAD), but I'm not 100% sure how this works in MDP. If you're doing this in the 'Input' StreamByter you might try adding a delay to the send: IF LOAD
SND B0 12 34 +D500
ENDI think MDP will add StreamByter events to its log. That might give you some indication too. Regards, Nic. |
