setbfree does not play all my pedal-board notes

[Georgie]

Hello Everyone,

I have built a B3 clone with setBfree as main software, running on a Raspberry PI. No problem with the 61-note keyboards, but setBfree does not play all notes from my PedaMidikit 25-note pedalboard. Pedals [C1 to G2] work fine, but I get no sound from [G#2 to C3] pedals. I know this is not a pedalboard issue because the "receivemidi" software clearly shows the MIDI note-on and note-off messages on channel 3 for [G#2 to C3].
Could some setBfree settings cause this behaviour?

FWIW, I just fired up setBfree, connected my keyboard, and was able to play pedal notes (using channel 3) from C1 to G3.

Thanks for testing setBfree. I am now thinking about foldback and active drawbars. I have to check this...

In the setBfree midi.c source file, the default lowest pitch value for pedals is 24 (C0) and not 36 (C1). Setting midi.pedals.transpose=-12 in the setBfree configuration file fixes the issue.

I just upgraded from Mint 18.3 to 19.3 and i noticed the other day that the setBfreeUI now comes up and just displays a black screen. Any thoughts as to what might be causing this. The CLI interface works and it makes sounds.

setBfreeUI works fine on my desktop: Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon 4.4.8. May I suggest you to open a new topic?

I apologize for stepping on your thread but thank you for the information. I will investigate my system and determine the issue.
