AppleMIDI on ESP8266 NodeMCU

[ciapamusche]

Hi . I'm tryng to use the library with a NodeMCU board but i dont find examples.

Is still the library compatible?

i tried an old example from 1.6 libray and i got this error after renaming the not found AppleMidi.h to AppleMIDI

Arduino:1.8.12 (Windows 10), Scheda:"NodeMCU 0.9 (ESP-12 Module), 80 MHz, Flash, Legacy (new can return nullptr), All SSL ciphers (most compatible), 4MB (FS:2MB OTA:~1019KB), v2 Lower Memory, Disabled, None, Only Sketch, 115200"

Hi @ciapamusche thanks for letting me know! I don't have any 8266 hardware anymore, but added an ESP8266 example, based on the 1.6* release. Can you check if it runs OK before I bump the version and re-release?

Hey thank you.. the sketch not compile.

Questo report potrebbe essere più ricco di informazioni abilitando l'opzione "Mostra un output dettagliato durante la compilazione" in "File -> Impostazioni"

Let me know for testing…..

check the feat/v2.1.0 branch

Hi . The sketch works and midi note is received by DAW correctly but I noticed a strange issue.

My DAW is installed on a Mac attached to the network by lan.

If I try to connect my esp It connect correctly and give an IP but from my Mac I cannot reach it. Not ping and the esp is not expose to Midi network. Only if I connect my Mac on wifi I can see the ESP on network.

Please note all the other network devices compatible with Apple network don’t have this problem. They works correctly with the Mac connected to the network

Any ideas?

Update. Different NodeMCU have different behaviour with same code. So. The problem maybe the board. I can confirm with new branch NodeMcu works with less 4ms of delay.... good job thank you

Good to hear @ciapamusche , when you are ready please close this issue
