MIDI Signal Re-enabling Issue (Stutters)
Posted: Mon May 22, 2023 6:36 am
Hello!
I found an issue with Daslight 5, when re-enabling the MIDI input/output, the signal that is being sent/received becomes inconsistent and stuttery...
I am using KORG nanoKontrol Studio MIDI controller which has bluetooth capabilities, so the way I found out about the issue is that I was walking around the room, and the bluetooth signal got lost, so once the signal was back on (when I was near my PC again), Daslight wouldn't automatically recognize the input/output, and I had to go into the settings and re-enable them.
When I did re-enable them, I noticed that the changes are not as smooth as before, the faders and knobs would not update as frequently, buttons did not work all the time, etc etc...
The only way to get it to work as it should, was to restart the entire Daslight software... (which obviously would be a disaster to do during a live show).
The same issue happens with USB connection (imagine you accidentally unplugged your MIDI controller's USB cable and re-plugged it back in (yeah I am aware that this probably would maybe happen once in 100 shows or whatever, but you get the point)).
This is more of a bug report/feature request(?), to have the MIDI input/output be auto-recognized when the MIDI signal is back online (wheter coming back to the bluetooth range bounds, or simply re-plugging the USB cable), without the need of re-enabling the input/output through the Daslight settings, AND fixing the issue (signal stutters) that comes with re-enabling the input/output (which we shouldn't have to do anyways, if the signal becomes auto-recognized back again).
I have recorded a video that describes this problem further and kinda shows how you can re-create the issue on your end, so I am curious if the same issue happens to you guys on other MIDI controllers.
