Disable NimBLE debugging in serial monitor

[OSCmixer]

Hello, I tried using BLEMidiServer.disableDebugging();, but nimBLE is still showing in the serial monitor. I have the latest version of the Arduino library, version 0.3.2, installed.

Should protected void receivePacket(uint8_t *packet, uint8_t packetSize); be in midi.h? Can you share an example of how to create a new task, for instance, in CPU 1 with priority 24? GPT chat attempted to handle MIDI and process MIDI, but nothing worked. :D I have now modified the original library, but it would be better not to have to modify it in case a new update comes.

can you show me your code ? you can create a task with xTaskCreatePinnedToCore

cpp_freertos::Task midiTaskNOTES("MIDITaskNOTES", 3024, 24, []() { // Task priority 24 uint8_t data[3]; // Buffer for Note On/Off messages (3 bytes) size_t size = sizeof(data); // Size of the buffer const uint32_t noteInterval = 2; // Time interval for processing notes (2 ms) static uint32_t lastNoteProcessTime = 0;

while (true) {
    uint32_t currentMillis = millis();

    // Check if it's time to process MIDI notes
    if (currentMillis - lastNoteProcessTime >= noteInterval) {
        // Receive MIDI Note messages
        BLEMidiServer.receivePacket(data, size); // Check if size needs adjusting based on received message

        if (data[0] >= 0x80) { // Check for valid MIDI status byte
            switch (data[0] & 0xF0) { // Filter out status byte
                case 0x90: // Note On
                    onNoteOn(data[0] & 0x0F, data[1], data[2], xTaskGetTickCount()); // Channel, Note, Velocity, Timestamp
                    break;
                case 0x80: // Note Off
                    onNoteOff(data[0] & 0x0F, data[1], data[2], xTaskGetTickCount()); // Channel, Note, Velocity, Timestamp
                    break;
            }
        }

        // Update last process time
        lastNoteProcessTime = currentMillis;
    }

can you send me the whole code so that i can upload it on an esp32 ?

ok, so you modified the library, but i don't understand why... receivePacket is an internal function, that's why it is 'protected'

i can't run the code because i don't have your version

[OSCmixer]

I am using esp32 board dev and i am newbie, I asked for example , gpt chat said that the current library doesn’t seem to directly handle or process incoming raw MIDI packets. Specifically, there's no function to receive and handle raw MIDI Note On/Off and other real-time MIDI messages. For this example showing serial monitor Remaining stack for midiTaskNOTES: 1280

why do you need to create a task ?

[OSCmixer]

For better performance, maybe is problem that cannot disable debugging nimble messages...Normally iphone bluetooth to iphone works more smoothly also with fast notes...And trying to get best performance possible... Experimenting with esp32 options

[max22-]

are you doing something else at the same time on the esp32 ?

[OSCmixer]

YES this example https://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools/blob/main/examples/examples-audiokit/streams-synthbasic3-audiokit/streams-synthbasic3-audiokit.ino, I modified example because was not working .
