It lights up green for less than a second and then nothing, dead.

I got it turned on in bootloader mode and uploaded "grid_d51_release_2025-09-03-1111.uf2" seems to be working again... weird.

Thank you for the prompt response!

...but it's not transmitting any MIDI

Karlo ·

It connected but its not showing it in the grid editor

Update on this - They EF44 and TEK2 disconnect when they recieve transport or midi clock from my DAW (Reaper). They disconnect because they no longer show as connected in Grid Editor. If I reconnect them, and then turn off MIDI output to the EF44 and TEK2, they function and continue to function as configured.

Man... after the latest firmware updates... these things just aren't working anymore

Karlo ·

All my LEDs are messed up, I'm not sure if they are still sending the right midi data anymore... they don't seem to be... so many issues and the more time I spend configuring these, the less time I'm making forward progress

Karlo ·

I don't think they're sending any MIDI

Just clear the modules configs, and let me know how you wanna config and I help you. Disable midi clock send from any software if you don't want to use it to clock the module.

Done, for the encoder I just want to send out a CC on a specified channel, for the button I want to be able to toggle between midi channel 0 and 1, and also a button long press to send out a cc value alternating between 0 or 127 (to turn things on and off in reaper)

Karlo ·

For the fader I would just like to be able to send a CC, is it possible to make it easy to know what channel and CC it's sending in Grid editor? Does that happen in the setup page or the encoder page?

Karlo ·

Same with the LEDs... I can't seem to wrap my head around how to change the colors or mess with the intesity. It would be nice if there was an easy way to select the color based on the button state... I just don't know how to do configure anything with the grid editor.
