Hi @cit

Thank you very much for testing ONYX-1154. We have reopened this, and will investigate why you are still not receiving the expected OSC feedback.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

hello, in this beta, if we want to adjust a parameter value by using a mouse on the parameter value under the cv, and the cv is not expanted, it is not possible, you first have to open cv and touvch the belt in any way, and then is the value adjustable. is this a new feature, or a bug. in 4.31.1292 it works as allways. thx

Chorando com a minha M-Touch do lado… :smiling_face_with_tear:

If “Range Lock” is enabled in the CV settings, and a parameter is on the encoders that has its first range within 0%, it will seem like you are unable to adjust the parameter when clicking and dragging, or when hovering and scrolling above the parameter’s encoder display.

However, if you disable Range Lock, you should be able to adjust this parameter without issue, even without the CV expanded.

This behaviour is the same in ONYX 4.31.1294 as it was in ONYX 4.31.1292 and earlier.

If there is a particular fixture this is not working with, please let me know the manufacturer, model, and mode, and I can take a look.

Edward

on win 10 and 4.31.1292 it works, on win 10 and 4.31.1294 it does not. with win 11 also 4.31.1294 works. it seems like a win 10 problem.

Com o fim do suporte a Martin (série M) queria saber uma coisa, caso eu tenha uma NX-K para liberar a licença “NOVA+” consigo usar a M-Touch junto? Ou independente da licença a M-touch não ira funcionar mais nas versões mais novas do ONYX?

M-Touch will not work, the drive and support for it are no longer inside the software.

Thank you for the information.

We have tested this on Windows 10 and Windows 11 and this appears to be working correctly.

If possible, please go to ONYX > Menu > About > About, and take a screenshot on your Windows system that is encountering this issue. Please then send this screenshot to us to allow us to investigate.

Many thanks,

Edward

hello, did you change the clear behaivior?
two versions ago, if we press clear and a fixture in the fixture view, imidently the value of this fuxture was cleared, without pressing enter. in this beta, you have to press enter? it is cool because you now can doppel click and give in a range of fixtures on the touch screen. and it is now possible to press thru and give in a range by keyboards. but did you change this? thx

Yes - this improvement to the CLEAR command was made as part of ONYX-1156.

Não sei se foi “arrumado” nessa versão nova mas vou perguntar aqui. Porque o library editor permite eu criar um fixture sem erros nos canais mas ao importar o onyx diz que tem erro? Por isso já não é informado no library editor?



please, put changes like this in the beta manual! thx.

Olá,

Por favor, você poderia compartilhar uma cópia do arquivo de fixture que você criou que causou o problema? Então poderemos investigar.

Edward

Hello,

Please could you share a copy of the fixture file you created that caused the issue? We will then be able to investigate.
