Twister centre detent and resolution settings not sticking

Greetings,

Just unboxed my twister and am setting up mappings for it. When I set an encoder to have a centre detent, if I click on a different encoder or send the data to the twister, the checkbox unchecks itself. This also happens if I change from high resolution to high response, yet other settings such as midi channel and colour do what they are supposed to.

This is with the latest firmware, and with MF utility 2.62 running on Mac.

Is this a known issue or is there something i’m doing wrong?

Same thing is happening to me. Using latest firmware and utility 2.62. Can’t get the changes I make to the detent or the knob resolution to stick. It lets me change them but once I send my changes to the twister it unchecks itself and knob resolution switches back again. So frustrating, Please help djtt.

Hello,

I’m experiencing the exact same issue since flashing the new FW. Same with Windows. MFU v2.62
So - this is an issue.

Cheers,
copes

exact same thing happening to me

yeah, everything else is completely fine except for those 2 issues? maybe bug

5

Same problem

I have the same problem. It is impossible to set a detent. Is there any workaround for it?

6

Got a hold of someone yesterday, it’s a bug with the new firmware. I’m sure it’ll be fixed soon

7

Same problem here :disappointed:

8

having same problem. I think its the editor. Does someone have old editor 2.6. Im waiting for tech response. I have latest version 2.62.

I reverted to MF Utility 2.61 and I don’t want to update to v 2.62 until they have this detent and resolution bug fixed. Does anyone know if this issue has been resolved yet?

Unable to Change “Has Detent” Setting on Twister

I am unable to change an encoder so “Has Detent” sticks. (Also can’t un-check existing encoders using that setting). Short 1m video showing the issue:

If I reset to factory settings I still can’t make that change. Importing my old settings works, though.

OS X 10.9.4, Midifighter Utility 2.62, Twister firmware June 26 2014. Let me know what other info I can provide! I’m not sure what the previous firmware was, but probably whatever shipped (I was a preorder).

11

Same here, actually same issue with all MF Twist i unboxed at our Synthesizer Store!!

PS: America based random questions are not cool for guys from europe. I have no Idea what the C. in Washington DC stands for, hahaha

Super frustrating that DJTT hasn’t responded to this (even with a "whoops, reverting to version X.Y works, here’s a link)…

Hey Guys,

This bug has been addressed and DJ Techtools is working on the MF Utility 2.63 as we speak.

Regards,

14

ok, nice that they are working on an update/fix.
However, a small message (and temporary solution) to inform their customer on this issue would be the least, don’t you think so?

15

SAME ISSUE… but how do i find and roll back to previous Firmware

i had the same issue straight out of the box…

my only question is where exactly is the old/new firmware file located??? this would be handy to backup old firmwares before updating…

better yet the Midi Fighter Utility should just have an option for all previous firmwares or at least the last few in a drop down box within the dedicated window..

oh and it would be nice to be able to “check for updates” for the MIDI UTILITY from WITHIN the app itself… this will save a lot of time…

Thanks

i’ve found a workaround for now: go into »multiple« mode, select the encoders and make the changes.

this way, detent and sensitivity settings keep sticking.

17

a quick solution

hey i’m new around here

got my midi fighter twister for about a week now, did set it all up, learning the ins & outs and loving it so far.

those settings keep sticking when enabled via “multiple mode”!

why didn’t the moderators allow my post when i made it the first time, i’m just trying to be helpful

18

Multiple mode only works for some things. I still have a knob stuck in “high resolution” mode.

DJTT: Shame on you for becoming one of those companies that lets stuff like this fester.

myeah,

I noticed on this forum that several people are having trouble with the MF Twister, the Mf utility, firmware, remote scripts etc., posting their frustrations on the forum (often my messages are not posted by the moderators - hope this message will be !!) and rarely getting ANY feedback.

It’s time Ean and his crews stops getting fancy haircuts and making fancy video’s, steps up to provide support to ALL the people who are having a hard time with the Twister.

So I found that if you constantly change the settings for the affected knob (after a factory reset) I was able to get all the knobs the way I wanted them. I noticed that it doesn’t seem to be just one knob but it will vary almost like something during the compiling process in the MF Utility causes the firmware to receive bad information or something. Basically if you switch the knob enough times between a factory reset, (Using the “Multiple” option)center detent, (Using the “Multiple” option again)and no center detent you will stumble across and interesting pattern that will eventually get everything set right. But It’s a pain the ass and it unfortunately isn’t an exact science. But I can report that I was able to get 4 normal super knobs and 12 center detent knobs all on one page.
