Thanks Macciza, I'm on holidays right now but will try this out as soon as possible.

looks like there have been a few downloads of my attached files - was anybody able to recreate my problem?

cheers!

Quick update: It looks like there is an issue with the Lemur Daemon's handling of large SysEx messages from hardware MIDI ports - but I have a work-around! Not ideal but a good stop-gap while it gets sorted out :) Use the SysExLbrarian at the link below to capture the SysEx packet coming off the ...

My template (EvolverProgrammer.jzml - attached) receives a 226 Byte SysEx dump in function ReceiveState(MIDI_ARGS) then uses a function ArrayToHex(array) to convert 8 Bytes to hex, and then return them as a string using arraytostring. This string is then displayed on a monitor object. Since I only ...

Can other programs see the interface? If yes then I'd try shutting down Lemur (not just minimising it) and starting it again - http://ipad.about.com/od/iPad_Guide/ss/How-To-Close-An-iPad-App.htm You could also try powering off the iPad, re-attaching the interface and starting up again. Hope that ...

I've attached a template I made that is the simplest I could think of that would reproduce the problem (for me). Change the hex in RequestDump() to adapt if for a different hardware synth. I thought maybe it was a timing issue, eg maybe Lemur was unhappy making the request then immediately receiving ...

EDITED as I remembered a detail about what happened. Can you confirm that SysEx messages sent TO the Lemur over Wi-Fi with Lemur Daemon are getting truncated? If not, please let me know exactly in which cases messages were truncated. I can confirm that long sysex messages sent FROM the computer TO ...

UPDATE: I used SendSX to try and find a pattern in the packets that are getting truncated. I varied the length of the packet sent to Lemur but could not get consistent behaviour. Generally, if the packet is less than 32 Bytes, Lemur gets it fine. Once it exceeds this size it is more often than not ...

ok, here's an interesting data-point. There are two types of dump i'm requesting: the first just asks for the main parameters - Evolver correctly returns a 38 byte packet, and after throwing away the first byte (as expected), Lemur gives me 37 bytes - so I am getting everything I'm supposed to. the ...

Thanks for giving my script the once-over. I made the fix and as a result, the Evolver is now consistently returns the same size Sysex packets - confirmed with MIDI monitor. Strangely however Lemur is now always truncating the packets to exactly 31 bytes (they should be around 220 bytes). It is also ...
