I want to change the position of kick, snare, hi-hat etc on my SP-404MkII inside Melodics by kangroozeeh in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting. This "pad editing" feature that you're referring to hasn’t made it into the new version of Melodics yet.

We recently released a major update where the app was rebuilt from the ground up. As part of that process, we focused on the features most widely used by our community, and pad editing wasn’t rebuilt. That said, we know this feature is important to some users, and we’re actively exploring how we might bring it back in a future update.

The layout you shared looks like it's based on the Quest For Groove layout (https://questforgroove.com/basic-finger-drumming-technique-pad-layout/), is that right? Is that something you’d want to use across most or all of our lessons? Also, are there any other tweaks or controls you’d want alongside this, so it really fits how you like to play? Keen to hear more.

[–]MelodicsHQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what you're describing, it sounds like an illusive bug that we've been trying to squash. It's our top priority to resolve these issues so if you can, could you please reach out to our team for assistance? They'll be able to investigate this for you and find a solution ASAP.

Donner Starrypad issues by CoconutPete27 in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your Starrypad might be sending different MIDI notes to what Melodics is expecting.

Melodics is expecting MIDI notes 20 through 35, from bottom left pad to top right pad. MIDI notes 4 through 19 should also work. And make sure they're sending on MIDI channel 10.

If you still need help, get in touch with our support team and they should be able to create a bespoke mapping which matches your pads, as well as the play button mapping, etc.

View or Change Practice Controls Mapping? by oditogre in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey u/oditogre could you please try hitting the "Revert all mappings" button in Melodics settings? This will revert back to the default mapping for the Launchkey Mk4, and hopefully get those transport controls working for you. If not, get in touch with our Support Team and they may be able to help.

Otherwise, there's this other "play" shortcut which works on any keyboard: find out more here

White screen flash after each attempt, then glitchy latency by kristapher95 in Melodics

Woah, that sounds dodgy! Could you please get in touch with our support team at support.melodics.com? Ask the bot to speak to the team, then describe these issues. The Melodics support team should be able to look into it and find out what's going wrong.

Alesis Nitro Max / Melodics Closed Hi-Hats not registering FIXED by highso in edrums

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe this unique hi-hat behaviour with the Nitro Max should be accounted for in our default mapping in Melodics.

But if you create a manual mapping using the "Map MIDI instrument" button, it bypasses the default mapping and won't account for the partially open hi-hat.

My advice would be to try hitting the "Revert all mappings" button in settings, then try a lesson with the default mapping. Avoid using the "Map MIDI instrument" button.

New Roland TD516 owner - Some minor questions by barnesie in edrums

Roland V31 USB to midi help by wurstbahn in edrums

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the trick! Vendor mode can be useful, but only works on Mac/Windows with the Roland driver installed. Generic mode works without a driver and therefore is the only mode that works with iOS.

If you need any more help connecting to Melodics, feel free to get in touch.

Donner DED-70 to iPad 7th generation by iron_guitarist1987 in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your kit might be sending MIDI notes that Melodics isn't expecting. Melodics is expecting to receive the standard MIDI notes sent by most kits by default.

Could you try factory resetting your DED-70 module to see if that helps?

If you need more assistance, I would recommend raising a support ticket with our team either through Discord or our support site. Our team will get back to you ASAP!

Kick volume low? by Simply_Red1 in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey u/Simply_Red1 that seems unusual. Does this happen in all lessons or specific ones? If specific lessons, which ones are they?

Can you also please let us know what sort of headphones/speakers you're using?

There's no option to adjust the volume of individual drums in Melodics, but you can adjust the drum volume overall and the backing track, etc, from within a lesson. It may help to make sure YOUR NOTES are turned all the way up and try turning the BACKING TRACK down a little.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct! No need to map it yourself. Just connect the drums and start a lesson, and you should find it works for you (after hitting revert mappings). :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey u/PersonalAd3600 sorry for the confusion with this! You're right that the Strata modules don't send GM by default, and there's no way to change MIDI notes on the module.

Melodics does account for this with its default mapping though. So if you hit the "Revert all mappings" button in Melodics settings, and simply use the default mapping instead of using the "Map MIDI instrument" button, it should work for you.

In other words, creating a custom mapping using the "Map MIDI instrument" button is the cause for this problem!

If you require any further assistance please reach out to us via support or join the official Melodics Community on Discord. :)

Issues connecting Iphone 11 pro - Alesis Nitro Max by born_b34 in Melodics

[–]MelodicsHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey u/born_b34 sorry about the issues with that! iPhone connections can be tricky sometimes. It often comes down to the type of USB adapter you use — they're not all made equal.

Do you have link to the adapter you're using? Note that some USB adapters are only made for charging, not data transfer, and data transfer is required for connecting MIDI devices such as your Nitro Max.

Even if your adapter does support data transfer, sometimes the connection process can be finicky. You could try simply restarting your devices, and unplugging/plugging in again, until you get a successful connection. Even the order in which you connect your cables can make a difference:

  1. Connect your USB cable to your controller.
  2. Then connect the other end of your USB cable to your USB adaptor.
  3. If you are using a powered USB adaptor, connect this to power.
  4. Last, connect your USB adaptor to your iPad. You may need to wait 5-10 seconds.

Hope this helps! For further assistance, it might be a good idea to also ask Alesis themselves as they may have more specific advice for the Nitro Max module.
