Changed logging behaviour in a preset [OBSOLETE]

Bug reports

After the Notes Transmittor I’m building a preset for the Korg KingKorg, including patchrequest. So far I was able to catch the first 62 bytes of the regular SysEx patch request using the patch editor and gradually building the controls, functions and overlays for it, when suddenly (after a load) the preset didn’t work anymore without apparent fault, but with a lot of logging going on when loading the preset.

Reversing my steps was of no help. In the end I cleared all of the Electra One (middle button left while booting) but that did not help .

Usually (example taking from my Notes Transmittor), when I upload a preset in the Electra One, I get about a page of messages in the log viewer, with something like this:

20:18:16.442 loadLua debug output:

20:18:16.520 lua: function onMessage does not exist
20:18:16.522 displayPage: page shown: page=0, controlSetId=-1

The first three lines give me the indication the load is going well, correct?

But now my KingKorg preset is spitting out that many pages of logs, I couldn’t capture the beginning of the log anymore. In search of the potential reason of this, I started clearing out bits and pieces from the code and the controls, untill I cleared out almost everything: the whole patch editor is empty, all of the lua script is gone, and only… 6 controls remain.
With this reduced set of controls, I can now copy and paste the full log during upload:

It’s like it is spitting thepreset itself all over the log viewer , but I don’t get to see the loadLuaModule message anymore.
What has triggered this behaviour for this preset? How do I make it work again as intended (I cloned the preset before I started emptying its scripts…) so the preset works as designed again?

The connections are as follows on my windows10:

Hi @NewIgnis,

The log messages you mentioned look ok. These are printed to the logfile every time the preset is loaded. It prints information about all parsed controls. messages, devices, pages. As you said, it basically provides description of the preset.

The loadLuaModule log message is shown only when there is a lua script present in the preset. If it is, the lua interpreter is initialized and the lua module can write to the log. If the lua script is not present, the lua interpreter is not loaded at all to save the memory and there are no lua related message in the log file.

I took a look at your presets and I can see that lua script is present in two copies and not in the third one (as you mentioned it).

What exactly stopped working in your preset? The patch parsing? Please let me know and possibly send me the syx file with the KingKorg patch dump. I will be able to look at that then. Thanks!

Thanks Martin for getting back.

here’s the preset for the Kingkorg.
Here is a syx file of one patch program dump, captured via Midi-Ox.
example 1 program data dump.syx (374 Bytes)

The weird thing is that the logging file used to be short. I was kind a adding 5-6 controls at a time, then uploading it into the E1 to verify on errors.
The moment this log became that extensive, was also the moment the preset stopped working, but because of the length of the log and the fact it gets clipped, I can’t see any info anymore on what is going wrong. The loadLuaModule log message may have passed by or not, I can’t verify anymore.

I’m in the dark.

These extensive log messages are not appearing in other presets I made, so no clue what caused this.

Here’s is the preset causing the large amount of logs.Electra One App

On this one I can still navigate and turn controls, but the control ‘Select it’ on page 1 isn’t sending out any midi requests, let alone receive a patch dump.
The test SysEx parameters changes you will find on page 12 ‘Patch’, still indicate something is being sent , but the synth is no longer responding to it.

Note : on parameter 240 (first control on last page); when I replace the function

’ {
“type”: “function”,
“name”: “getChannelByte”
},’

with a fixed value of “3B” that one control works again. (the value needs to be 0x30 + midi channel). But that function hasn’t been altered to my knowledge.

I’ve started the same work from another angle. This bug does not apply anymore, as currently it can’t be reproduced, so I will mark it as obsolete.
