Fixed "Chooser" is not showing

Synthesizer
MONTAGE M
Browser
  1. Edge
I have successfully gone through the compatibility test, but when choosing "Programmer", there is no further option/selection to choose my synth. it just shows a black screen
 
A couple of things to try:
  1. Refresh the browser a few times
  2. Shut down the browser and reload it
  3. Check that the M6 is still showing up in the compatibility test
If none of that works, please let me know the name of the MIDI port you selected in the compatibility test - I'm expecting it to be MONTAGE M Port1, but I'd be interested to know if it is not that.

And finally, you can try going directly to the Montage M editor, bypassing the chooser, although if the chooser doesn't find it this might not work:
 
yes,
have rebooted the PC
have the refreshed the browser
no changes yet.

The MIDI port is labeled as "4- MONTAGE M-1"

There are four choices in total
"4- MONTAGE M-2"
"4- MONTAGE M-3"
"4- MONTAGE M-4"

Also note: when doing the compatibility test, the onscreen control moves the volume on the Montage correctly, but moving the physical slider on the hardware doesn't change the value in the browser. so its seems to only be communicating one way.
 
Yes, the compatibilty test does only one-way comms, as the two-way stuff requires bucket loads of code that was't necessary for the simple test.

I think the problem here is the names of your ports. At present, KDx expects to find the standard 'xyz Port1' format, so your '... M-1' format is throwing it.

If you can rename your ports back to the standard format, KDx should work fine for you, and in the meantime, I'll look at implementing a fix.
 
I'm just sorry it didn't work right out of the box for you!
 
an update....

just used the application "USBDeview" to uninstall/deactivate/forget the Montage M in Windows. After reconnecting the Montage, it set itself up with these port names...
"Montage M-1"
"Montage M-2"
"Montage M-3"
"Montage M-4"

my understanding now is that each time you reconnect the Montage to a new USB port, it renames the connections. I'm using Windows 10
 
I don't know if you're still trying to rename your ports @Kyle Barton but I've just made some changes to the code, and theoretically it should now work with your existing port names.
 
(Essentially, to hide ports 2, 3, and 4, the code now expects the Montage MIDI port to end with '1', rather than the previous ' Port1')
 
If you could give it a try and report back, I'll either mark this as resolved, or keep working...
 
I only just remembered that i put a synth and browser custom field into this forum, which you used, and I promptly ignored, so sorry about the stupid question about what synth you were connecting! 🤦🏻
