Mapping Between MIDI Channels And Stepper Motors #12

Closed swiz23 closed 1 month ago

swiz23 commented 3 months ago

Hi,

Thanks for creating this repo! This isn't so much an issue than a question. Is there somewhere in the documentation that shows the mapping between MIDI channels and stepper motors? I think that could be helpful as a check to make sure my project is working out correctly.

Also, as a different question, is there a free MIDI editor that you'd recommend? I was playing around with MuseCore (which has a great UI) but it looks like it doesn't do a good job of separating out multiple channels when outputting to a single MIDI port (though maybe I missed something). Cakewalk does separate out multiple channels, but the UI is a little daunting.

Thanks

As far as the channels go, it is mostly as it is defined at the top of midi_interface.ino Channel 1: X axis Channel 2: Z axis Channel 3: Y axis Channel 4: A Axis

I don't have a good free MIDI editor unfortunately. I personally use FL studio, but I would say if you've found something else that supports it then it might be worth just crushing some YouTube videos to see if you can get going with that.
