microphone values not higher than decimal 131 ... ? #309

Closed 6a5h4 closed 10 months ago

6a5h4 commented 1 year ago

i tried to program it with microsoft makecode editor in blocks, but i saw, the output value of the microphone is not 0-255 as told, its only 0-131 ... what i have to do to get a full 8-bit level? I tested 3 microbit v2.00 (v2.55), everyone does the same... now after i tried to test the microphone with phyton, i got values from a stable zero (0) up to 254 (it works!). Seems to be an Java/Microsoft Blocks issue... or CODAL? ... the code is finished but won't work as expected... and i am not the phyton guy...

Hi @6a5h4,

Have you tried this in MakeCode beta? https://makecode.microbit.org/beta It should have been resolved already in the latest CODAL releases:

Hi @microbit-carlos ,

i tested now v3-beta and in blocks it works (mic volume up to 255 possible), but v3-beta has another big problem that throws me back for 3 days! And there it is:

I programmed in phyton until now, and it seems to work, but every change was not applied to the .hex-file, so i ever copied the same phyton software to the micro:bit-v2, so it couldn't work as expected. I needed 3 days to discover that the compiler only compiles the blocks-Programm, never the phyton program editor changes... so one project had more than one software version in it! I switched above back to blocks and was wondering to see my blocks-program that was 3 days old (!!) ... think you need to rework a lot of the makecode-editor before you can leave the beta status...

Hi @6a5h4,

Thanks for the report, could you open a new issue in the https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-microbit/issues tracker to let the MakeCode team the issues you've found with the editor? Thanks!

I'll close this as the original CODAL issue has been resolved and any MakeCode editor specific issues should be open in https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-microbit/issues. Thanks for the report!
