arduinoboy's Issues

Failed to compile for Teensy LC

When trying to compile the code in the Arduino IDE, I get the following error:

Error: lo register required -- `sub ip,#1'

Compilation Error for Arduino Nano Every: 'PIND' was not declared in this scope.

I'm trying to build this with an Arduino Nano Every.
I get a compilation error that "PIND" is not declared.

Is there a workaround of some sort for the Nano Every?

Channel 3 Pitch-Bend Issue

While using pitch bend in the wave channel, a popping occurs whenever the PB is brought back to value 64. After a good number of pops the channel's waveform will change (audibly but not on the display). In order to restore the original waveform, I need to move the waveform manually to a different shape and then toggle back to the original shape.

I am using Arduinoboy software 1.3.3, a DMG-01 Play-it-Loud, and an Arduinoboy made by Xiwi Electronics.

Random Mode error

I have an issue where my arduinoboy randomly cycles through modes. I compiled the Code and after several attempts it finally compiled without any Error. I wanted to try it out, but pressing the mode button won't do anything. Sometimes it randomly starts to cycle through the modes and when it comes to MGB i can play notes with my Midi Keyboard and the Green Status Led Lights up correctly. This ist Just temporarely because of the mode cycle. MGB does Not detect anything and I was not able to ever hear a Sound in MGB while I was playing a Note. LSDJ has the Same Problem. Maybe someone knows how to fix it. I have tried several hours and days but I ended writing this text Here. My Setup is a Catskull DIY Kit, a Arduino Uno and a Gameboy Color with Ezflash Junior and the Roms.

Error when trying to compile

Any way to solve this issue? Tying to flash the files to a Teensy 2.0 on a PCB made with Trash80s schematic for the teensboy.

Having trouble compiling for Arduino Uno. Compiling for original ArduinoBoy design.

Trouble receiving midi message

Using a Teensy 3.2, I can compile and upload the sketch fine.
It goes through the startup animation on the LEDs.
I can select a mode with the button.
It even remembers the mode when I restart.

I'm trying to use mGB mode.
But when sending midi from my computer, using Live, through USB, I don't get any status LED changes (or any sound on my gameboy).

The settings in the Arduino IDE are:
Board: "Teensy 3.2 / 3.1"
USB Type: "MIDI"
CPU Speed: "96 MHz (overclock)"
Optimize: "Faster"
Keyboard Layout: "US English"
Port: "HID=#### MIDI (Teensy 3.2"

I can also see a "Teensy MIDI" in my Audio MIDI Setup on macOS and can see "Teensy MIDI" in Live as a "Midi to" output.

I've used the same pins as in the original code. I updated all the libraries in the Arduino IDE. I tried other USB Types to see if there was some serial debugging info printed.

Here is a picture of my breadboard layout.

I also have an Arduino UNO with a which I can send midi to fine with a USB to DIN 5 cable.

I'm not sure where I have gone wrong, since the start up and mode selection appear to work. Does anybody have any ideas?

mGB USB Midi not working with newer Teensyduino versions.

Teensyduino 1.41+ changed the values returned by usbMIDI.getType(). Instead of 0, 1, 2, etc. it now returns the hex values described here: https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_midi.html

This is easily fixed by modifying the switch statement in modeMidiGbUsbMidiReceive in Mode_MidiGB.

There is another issue where MIDI_INTERFACE does not seem to get defined anymore. This could be an error on my part as I was not able to find anything about it but after manually defining it and applying the above fix everything is working again.

Other modes might need fixing too, I have only tested mGB on a teensy LC.
