Available connectors: MIDI-In, MIDI-Out, SIO (in the form of DB9 socket - I had one).

Sikor is selling injection moulded SIO connectors. BTW two connectors would be even better.

Hello PeBe

That looks very nice already. But wouldn't it be easier to remove the SIO plugs from the SIO connectors if the connectors would be next to each other instead of over each other?

Hello PeBe

Sound great! (No pun intended)

Just a small update from MIDIcar project... Our colleague KKRYS made very complex and looks good case for Atari 800XL computer: IMG_20230721_121302936.jpg IMG_20230721_121307451.jpg IMG_20230721_121319114_HDR.jpg IMG_20230721_121543215.jpg IMG_20230721_121552910.jpg IMG_20230721_121607299.jpg IMG_20...

Hey Pancio: You once wrote this: (...) According to features.... there is no possible to use MIDIcar in duplex mode because MC6850 has only one common send/receive register. I'm thinking about using DACIA chip (R65C52) but I'm not sure it's required by more than a few people :-) we will see. (...) ...

I seen PeBe's MIDI Remote in action during development... it's amazing and equipped with many features. I'm not fairy but I can see (without crystal ball!) many many new modern, interesting things to do with MIDI Remote :-)

Best Regards,
pancio

Hi, I sent PM to you but general... MCPlayer working under SpartaDosX in X mode (to avoid address conflict with SDX). When you start under SDX, just run MCP like: X MCP158.COM or X MCP158.COM /AD580 - address shall be the same as set on jumpers. First method using autodetect for MC, second given add...

Hi,

Just a short movie how to run MCP under SDX loaded from AVG cart:

Great!

I hope, a few challenges are not made your opinion bad :-) You should to know, work with many MIDI files needs more than easy DOS - maybe you will change mind after while, regarding to SDX...

The software is running fine with my Midi Car but there are some midi files that are not played perfectly.

Here is an example where some channels are missing.

For misplayed MIDs, please very much describe what is happening - slowed playback, bad sounds, etc. Seem that the bug was between my ears. I can confirm that the above file plays well. Thought a channel was missing but that is not the case. Apologies! :shock: Edit: Feature request. Would it be poss...

- I'm not the best programmer in the world :) and I do all the programming myself, as part of the Fun

You are!

Anyway, check only on the non-working computer (800XL) ... At this point, only address conflicts come to mind. With this procedure the solution was simple. It hasn't been an address conflict but the 5V modification was only done on Pin47 of the pbi bus (only got the information today). Due to the f...

Hi MIDI freaks! I would like to introduce new version of MIDIcar device called MIDIcarSDX . It's combine MIDIcar, MaxFlash128+ and SDX. Due to this combination, MDIcar is ready to work immediately after switching on, and the program necessary for MIDI playback is available on the CAR device paired w...

I really love the MIDICar Player.
I do have MIDICar XE from Pancio, but I was very happy to discover that there is a MIDIMate driver available.
This way I can use the player on my 1088XEL with MIDI XEL II and DREAMBLASTER S2

Here is a solution for other users who are not familiar with SDX (like me). I assume that the first HDD partition (configured with FDISK) is D3. Copy original CONFIG.SYS from CAR to D3: D3: TYPE CAR:CONFIG.SYS >>CONFIG.SYS Edit the file D3: ED CONFIG.SYS Delete the line: DEVICE RAMDISK In U1MB menu,...

Hi Voters!

Many thanks for your trust and vote for my project. I am very pleasantly surprised :-) Of course, all information about the project will be available on my website. If you are interested in building your own toolkit, contact me - I have some free PCBs :-)

Thank you very much once again!

Hello guys It really sucks that MIDICar player is "SpartaDos only". This makes it a lot less interesting for me. Sincerely Mathy It works also with MyDOS :geek: I've IDE Plus2.0F version (CF card) which is equipped with SDX... but I can try to use MyDOS. Is possible to start MyDOS directl...

Hi, Today PeBe solved problem with MCP which is installed directly on SDX CAR flash memory. From today using MC is so easy! Just plug MC to CART/ECI, turn your ATARI and enjoy music! Thank you PeBe! MIDIcarSDX.jpeg Now PeBe is working with some very usefully features on his player. I will say more s...

Hi, I would like to update anyone interested in MIDIcar development... I decided to make new version which will be universal for XL and XE series (600XL include). Additionally, universal mezzanine board for other projects was made (called PBIvo for PBI, and XEvo or XAvo :-) for CART/ECI - in develop...

I would like to say that anyone can download the schematic, PCB design (Gerber files) for each version presented and make it themselves, without any restrictions (except for commercial sale). If you are willing to cooperate, do not hesitate and contact me :-) I can´t find the files, but would love ...

Hi,

I prepared MIDIcar version for 1090XL extension. If we have almost one user in UE which is interested to test it I'll order PCB for it... Source files are available on my page.

Can anyone help?

Yes. I´m preparing two disks which I will upload to my ABBUC-tnfs tomorrow. Still have to sort out some defective/not well working MIDI Files. Stay tuned.
