I will...i am a bit surprised ...i have never heard about this. :-) I am guessing the checkbox + setting the value to 64 will trigger the sequence.

Yes, it works like a charm.

It seems like that you first need to first to enable the autohighlevel checkbox MDM... and then press send...and then set the value to 64...and then do a send again. Now the sequence starts. Hit the drum a couple of times and then do a get function in MDM to read back the measured value.

This works very well.

It should work if you sent and send HighLevel Auto and HighLevel togeter.

Hit the drum a couple of times and then do a get function in MDM to read back the measured value.

Are you using the latest firmware version? In the latest firmware version MegaDrum, when HighLevel changes, sends new values to MDM automatically so you don't need to read them back.

I am running the latest of everything!

Yes, I can just confirm that this function works like a charm if enabling the checkbox and setting the high value to 64.. and press send and then see it reads back the high value! Magic!

An small idea...immediately when enabling the high level auto checkbox in MDM... why not set the high level to 64 directly?

What if you checked it accidentally?

Hi Dmitri.
That is of course a valid risk...but I think even a bigger risk is that most people have no idea that they need to set the value to 64 to be able trigger to the function from MDM. Today - many people leaves the high level auto to "enabled" as default. (There has been no risk...) But making the checkbox a bit more binear and force people to think - Do I want to reset and trigger high level auto / yes or no...This is the checkbox that will do it!

That's my opinion.

Unrelated High Level and 64 value will be best solution IMO. I don't know if it's possible but it is logic. Automatic measuring levels on pads, hi hat... are very nice features, without them it will be very hard to determine those values + positional sensing mark in MD... My mistake was buying Atmega1284 instead of ARM board. It's just matter of time when gonna A1284 be obsolete.
For now Atmega 1284 woks great, I have no animadversion. In the future it will be replaced with ARM version for shure.
Have a nice day and cheers!

This version (20141107)
Any changes made to any of the drop down menus needs a restart to take effect. This would be fine but You then have to do a get all, again, to be back to normal. Not a big deal, just thought I'd mention it.

@Dmitri
The src zip at the beginning of this thread, does this make MDM re designable? If so doe one need any or all of those Apache files?

MDM source code is open and you can do anything you like with it. You do need all those libraries listed in the first post.
