Thoughts on the official Minitaur Editor

I’ve registered my Minitaur but don’t have a download link to the editor beta, does anyone have a link please? (OSX) - Many Thanks :slight_smile:

I am having problems renaming presets I’ve created! As soon as I hit the backspace button, it shuts down unexpectedly :frowning:

Still pretty good for beta though, I’m just glad I have a way to save presets without a camera or a notebook :smiley:

Welcome to the Minitaur family!

Are you running windows or mac? I haven’t had an issue with naming presets on a win7 machine.

…and, I watched the Sonic State review of the MT and saw an extremely more kickass version of the editor for mac’s. Guess they are focusing more on that than windows :frowning:

fwiw, that is exactly how I had entered it (as well as “7” and “MT0007”) none of these worked for me. Of course, Moog Tech Support was able to get it for me.

Sorta off topic, but I am stuck in Fargo ND and am having Minitaur withdrawals! Dunno if I can make it back to illinois by tomorrow!

I thought the point of a Minitaur was that it could be taken with you easily? :confused:

woulda packed it, but I was only supposed to be here for a day. Damned electricians thinking it’s ok to run a a bunch of 12AWG wires across a circuit board that are pushing against it hard enough to snap off solder joints. Stuck waiting on replacements. The woes.

I wouldn’t call them woes. Idiots, maybe. :unamused: Seriously? 12AWG? What kind of circuit board are we talking about? Some commercial control device?

Yep. Fancy lighting controls. Fly all over plugging my computer in and telling the panels when to do things with lights.

woops!

Not at all! Both versions should be equally kickass when finished. It’s just that the Mac beta is further along than the Windows version. I actually got a new Windows build last night, which I need to test. I’m told it still crashes on Capture though, which we’ll need to fix…

have patience, kickass finished editors are coming for all :slight_smile:

LOL@link! :laughing: Hope you can finish said exciting work and be back home soon!

Customer should have gone with Siemans or GE. Never have any problems with those controllers. :laughing:

You could always suggest they leave the covers off to allow room for the conductors! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

I’m on a Mac! Still having the same issue, but I’m sure it’ll be resolved in no time. I’m in no hurry :smiley:

Siemens & GE for BACNet, which we can talk to them natively. Leviton relay panels are tops, bar none! :mrgreen:

Yeah, something tells me it’s a code violation to leave Termination Blocks with 277VAC landed exposed to pokey customers :laughing:

BTW, the problem was the power supplies were wired wrong from the factory, go figure. Now I am home playing with my MT & LP (among others :slight_smile: )

woops!! pt.2

HAAY… that sign says NO PARKING! Couldn’t the train conductor read??

ROFL@Amos! :laughing:

I would greatly appriciate linux compatibility as I think it is a fantastic audio platform, as distributions like AV linux tune the operating system itself to obatin minumum latency by placing a higher priority on audio processes. An entirely new editor will not be needed as a linux program called wine (also available for osx) runs windows programs, but not all of them. One program that does not run in wine is the midi murf editor, I hope the minitaur editor will be more friendly with it.

Apparently I missed this reply, Amos. Good to hear! I love the look of the version on the SS Review. Exactly what I had pictured. Curious, were ya’ll able to get the “floating” windows to work in Windows like in the Mac Version?

Safe to say, and likely not a far off guess, that the guys writing the Mac version of the editor already had all of the fancy knobs and panel textures from the iPad and iPhone apps. I’m unsure of what tool they are working with but it may or may not be platform compatible from an interface perspective which means double work.

It is gorgeous on the Mac though.

hey folks, i’m not having any luck with the minitaur editor working. im on a macbook pro, USB to mini, when i turn a knob in the editor, the midi out LED flashes, but no output of data. no change of parameter on the unit. i’ve tried both a USB-MIDI cable using the midi in, and that doesnt work either. what am i doing wrong? thanks, rj
